Just My Opinion



Hypocrisy is pretty common. In fact, I think everyone is a hypocrite to some extent. But when it gets to the point where you are living your life thinking that you know what's best, you know more than everyone else, or you're just annoying me with your "point", I'm going to speak up.

Firstly, let's just start talking about, oh, I don't know...marijuana. It's bad, right? It's a drug, it dangerous, it always lead to trouble, it's just this horrible thing. Can you name a few reasons why? It leads to other drugs? Actually, no, at least not in my opinion. Marijuana isn't like cocaine, heroine, or even pain pills that are both physically and mentally addictive. In fact, I don't think I've ever heard of anyone having withdraws from pot. Have you? Oh but it's bad for your. Maybe, but isn't eating fast food every day bad for you too? Isn't smoking a pack of cigarettes a day killing you quicker than smoking a joint every once a while is? Wait, wait, wait. I forgot. Weed is dangerous! But...then again, I've never heard of someone getting killed in a "high driving" accident. I've never heard of anyone lashing out and beating their kids, or having any of the same affects that alcohol does. So how is it we can throw 99 proof bottles of liquor on the shelves of every liquor store, but when it comes to smoking a PLANT, it's suddenly the worst thing imaginable. I'm not claiming to know everything that there is to know about this, but I think people should be aware that it isn't what everyone makes it out to be.

I find it pretty ridiculous that someone can't sit and enjoy something in the comfort and privacy of their own home without being criticized for it, yet there are people out there daily, killing others because they're too drunk to realize they shouldn't be driving.
