Another Country heard from

Recently I posted a picture with comments of how marijuana destroys your brain. Well, people came pot of the woodwork. Every single person had something to say about it and all of them disagreed with it. They claimed that pot was a great thing and even had healing powers. One of the people commenting was a pothead who smokes it everyday. Another was a person who does not smoke it anymore but, agreed with the others. I asked the person why he no longer smoked it anymore if it was such as good thing? His response was that he has other ways to calm himself. They came up with every excuse in the book as to why it is so damn good for you and how it has no harmful effects. Interesting that they say it has no harmful effects since the mere smell of it makes me vomit. And NO, it isn't in my head. My Brother in law has smoked pot for decades. He has never been able to hold down a job for any amount of time, he steals from people so he can buy more. I had neighbors who invite me and my family over one time to watch fireworks and when we got there, they broke out a joint and started smoking it right there in front of me, my wife and out young children. I was pissed. They had no respect for me and I had to get my kids and leave. The one neighbor smoked it every day...several times. He didn't work because he would rather stay home and get stoned. Yea, pot is such a great thing huh? I feel that society is trying to say marijuana is such a wonderful thing and trying to get everyone else to accept it. To me it is similar to gay marriage. The gay couples are trying to say they can be married even though the union of Marriage is between a Man and a Woman. They try to convince society that their lifestyle is normal and acceptable. Same as potheads. In my eyes none of those lifestyles are normal or acceptable. I realize I am going to have a lot of negative comments to this blog but, that's alright. I am who I am and I am not ashamed. Oh, by the way. I was also told that if I did my HOMEWORK on marijuana that I might be more accepting of it. Yea right. I am not Holier than thou. I am not without sin, none of us are. I do have my opinions on the matter though and if those opinion upset people then that is their problem, not mine. So, go ahead, excuse away. Comment on hoe pot is the wonder drug and how great and wonderful it is. Even though I have never done pot and never will, does not mean that I have to accept it in society or that I have no say so......................BK
