Why don't you lighten up? If acidheads like the Grateful Dead could celebrate the right of Oklahomans to make their own drug laws, why the hell can't you?

There are 50 states. Find one you like.
Okie From Muskogee. By the great Merle Haggard. Not the Grateful Dead (who were great also).
The alcohol is probably more unhealthy (if only for the pounds), makes a person intoxicated, and is more addictive yet it's considered normal. If a person goes home and lights up a joint they are considered a deadbeat drag on society and in most states, a criminal who belongs behind bars. You might even go out with your coworkers for beers after work, but if you ask if they want to smoke a joint you'll lose your job and good luck finding another one thanks to pre-employment drug screening. Alcohol typically makes people more aggressive and to certain people, more prone to anger and violence. Weed typically mellows people out and just makes them laugh. Even if you use marijuana for medicinal reasons, you have to keep it on the down-low because conservative society says it's just an excuse for potheads to smoke pot. Yet, the same people wouldn't bat an eye at people popping Oxycontin all day long.
Why is drinking a few beers after work to wind down the day socially acceptable but smoking a joint isn't?

One shouldn't have to move if they aren't violating the natural rights of another.
