OK'ING MARIJUANA WILL DRIVE FEDS NUTS

Since the feds gave us the Yucca repository, it is only fitting to pass the
marijuana initiative. It'll drive 'em nuts if one of the 50 states does
something they refuse to do.

Passage will allow police to seriously fight the drug war - decoupling pot
from the truly dangerous drugs. This will help weaken and destroy the drug
cartels that sell bad drugs along with pot. Not only should we pass this
into law, but we should increase penalties for the bad drugs.

Remember, kids, booze was illegal, too, until the citizenry got mad enough
to change things.

And, if you don't like the idea of others smoking pot, why do you insist on
being others' conscience? Why can't you live and let live? For some of us,
this is a spiritual tool, and we all are certainly lacking in that.

If this passes, the feds will possibly withhold funding, which means things
like the Trench may not get financing. Awww. What a shame that would be. As
I see it, the worst drugs are greed, television, methamphetamines, alcohol,
tobacco, opiates, aspartame, marijuana and coffee - in that order. People
are going to smoke it regardless. What's the big deal? Let's tax it!
