'MARIJUANA FANTASY LAND'

Marijuana 'fantasy land': For the life of me, I will never understand 
the mentality of people. One more thing that fogs over and seriously 
impairs thinking and judgment is legalized, and people consider it 
cause for big celebration.

There has been heavy, and I mean heavy, media coverage with people 
right in front of the TV cameras breaking the rule about smoking 
marijuana in public. With people blatantly and openly breaking that 
rule, what makes these highly educated makers of the rules think 
people are actually going to follow the rest of them? Perhaps they've 
smoked too much of it themselves.

Where do you think this politically correct, liberal fantasy land - 
where no guns means no crime, and where there's no pollution or 
hatred - came from? I don't know why people are so infatuated with 
fogging their minds out of reality. Their problems are not going to 
disappear in a cloud of smoke; they're just making more problems for 
themselves and for the rest of us who still live in reality.
