New Jersey legalized Medicinal Marijuana yesterday and these two comments sound like something from the Cold War era.
“Obama, Gov. Corzine and the communist democrats want America’s youth to smoke drugs and collect welfare and rely on government for their food stamps, section 8 house and welfare money. The USA is going to go to trash because of these corrupt sick politicians. May HKBH save us from these sick sick communist corruptors.”
I wonder if that commenter realizes that many ultra orthodox Jews rely on the same government programs he mentioned for help. I also wonder if he realizes that every time the government wants to cut some sort of public funding, whether it be school bussing or longer hours for public libraries, the Jews always make a big stink about it if it affects them?
“China is rejoicing at this drug induced American sickness. Soon the Communist Chinese will be buying all the American businesses and real estate with their trillions of dollars and the drug induced American workers will be their minimum wage slaves. The democrat party of sickness has triumphed.”
Sounds like a line straight out of Glen Beck or Rush. It’s kind of funny because I always thought the Republicans were the one’s who wanted less government, and legalizing something seems like taking it out of the government’s hands and bringing it to the people.
Who remembers this?

this might chill lakewood out a bit.
The best “This is your brain on drugs” commercial is the one where the woman just goes about smashing shit.
Actually it’s specifically for heroin:

that was a very young Rachel Leigh Cook
Love those stupid ads, they gave me the munchies.
You have to remember, these are the people who have absloutly no beleif in people’s ability to control themselves. In their minds, if people CAN smoke pot it means they WILL.
Never mind that this legislation treats marajauna as a medication. Or that, according to their logic, everyone should be drunk all of the time. After all, alchohol is legal.
“Obama, Gov. Corzine and the communist democrats want America’s youth to smoke drugs and collect welfare and rely on government for their food stamps, section 8 house and welfare money. The USA is going to go to trash because of these corrupt sick politicians. May HKBH save us from these sick sick communist corruptors.”
Works just as well:
“The gedolim and roshei yeshivos want Judaism’s youth to learn full time and collect welfare and rely on government for their food stamps, section 8 house and welfare money. The frum world is going to go to trash because of these corrupt sick rabbonim . May HKBH save us from these sick sick rabbinical corruptors.”
Or is that too much?
Any word on whether Matisyahu has switched his stance on the ganja since he left Lubavitch? Saw him at a concert a couple weeks ago and by the looks of him he may want to move from Crown Heights to Teaneck.
i smoke marijuana regularly. never hurt me much.
in fact, i’ve had worse effects from a farbringen than ever smoking weed.
