So you say. A drunk is just as bad as a pothead.

Drunks are much worse that pot users and they are doing much more damage to their health. When Pot becomes fully legal, I suspect that doctors will advise their beer/liquor using patients to switch to Marijuana for health benefits. No calories, no liver effect, no possibility of overdose, just a pleasant high.

You can get a lethal dose of alcohol for about $20 and consume it in one sitting. There is no way to do that with MJ.

To all you say:

Hypocrisy is the mortar which fills in the chinks of the establishment's fortress of lies.

Hypocrisy is necessary as an emotional tool to bind folks to the established order. Once one invests in a lie sufficiently, one will cling to that lie against all evidence.

Look at any garden-variety leftist-- they are all self-blinded.

It's a shame that so many who claim to be loyal to America and its Constitution have been reduced to being mere parroters of the Gubmint's Party line. The techniques used by Governments to 'manage' the population work because we live in Socialist times, but this political delusion won't last forever.

The great thing about such hypocrisy is that it helps to alienate youth from the state's institutions. Most teenagers know that their parents, teachers, and other socially-approved authorities are full of self-satisfied smugness at having successfully maintained a public facade of decency despite grievous flaws of character.

You will find that arguing with those who merely want to be on the side of power is a fruitless task, but you may educate some lurkers and amuse the rest of us. ;^)

Cheers.

Wouldn't surprise me; I'd expect many more to make the switch on their own, since nobody enjoys vomiting or hangovers.
