A Simple Idea

A Simple Idea

The first step in legalization ought to be rationalization. There is simply no scientific support for the "theory" that marijuana is a dangerous drug.

A major reason I find Lee's strident advocacy of medical marijuana wrong headed (other than his sinking to abusive name calling) is that he is just as bad as the opponents of marijuana is misusing facts. Everytime he posts one of these stories I wonder what the real facts are? Is this patient someone really in need of marijuana or just some worshiper?

In someways this issue is a lot like global warming. The Luddites or the 4R party (radical religious republican remnant) claim to have knowledge that is superior to that of the huge mass of the scoientific community. This goves me an idea, somethng on which I would expet thehim (Lee) would agree .....

One of the most effective tools in turning the tides of opinion in re global warming has been Gore's movie. There must be dozens of visible figures, accepted leaders, with Gore's stature who could host such a movie revealing just the facts about marijuana. What if Lee and his community turned their efforts to funding such a flick?

The star would have to be someone with gravitas. The movie would obviously have ti acknowledge the association of marijuana with a fringe culture but transform use of marijuana into a mainstream issue.

Or we can pretend that marijuana is the gift of Krishna.
