Classic Stoner, A Day Late For The Party

Yesterday was 4/20 so like I said I'm a day late but you probably didn't notice, did you you drug fiend? Probably too busy smoking what my Dad calls, 'unbranded cigarettes' and gatewaying yourself into a crack cocaine habbit.

Or maybe not. Either way (as long as you haven't yet sold your computer to buy crack) check out this article from Huffpo by a member of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition. He makes your basic health and safety arguments but since you're always zoning out and forgetting things I thought I'd remind you. Plus it's always nice to hear a cop say:

Over the past four years I've asked police officers throughout the U.S. (and in Canada) two questions. When's the last time you had to fight someone under the influence of marijuana? (I'm talking marijuana only, not pot plus a six-pack or a fifth of tequila.) My colleagues pause, they reflect. Their eyes widen as they realize that in their five or fifteen or thirty years on the job they have never had to fight a marijuana user. I then ask: When's the last time you had to fight a drunk? They look at their watches.
