Legalized marijuana not good for anyone
To the editor:
Marijuana is against the law. The president of the United States, B.H. Obama, has stated he discourages the use of pot with his children. For how long, as he is so wishy-washy anyway. Georgia Rep. Allen Peake says when the people realize use is not by children, but by adults, it changes their perspective. He states he is an unlikely champion of pot.
America, do all of us a favor and cease to compare pot with drinking alcohol, for both are the same. Period. I once upon a time consumed alcohol, and every time I survived my doing so. I did not wreck a vehicle as so many have, nor has anyone died from my drinking the beverages. I have smoke pot a couple of times and all I received was a long nap with bugger bears in them. Dope and alcohol are one in the same -- addictive, been there done that. Neither is worth the effort or the expense. Most assuredly, neither is worth helping the United States be destroyed from imploding on herself.
Medical pot from a doctor or dealer is all the same, dope is dope, from a bottle, joint a pill. You legalize it, it will run totally rampant, see the actions of the latest two states to legalize it. Election or re-election is not this important. Try it, you will like it. Yeah, right. It is the same as a drunk -- either way you are impaired and dangerous to everyone. You drink and drive, you smoke you drive, and if you have an accident and kill another you should be tried for murder as you knew what you were doing. Drinking is wrong, using is wrong. Impaired is wrong. Drinkers wanted alcohol and it is considered legal. How many people have been maimed or killed by a drunk? The same will follow dope. See the definition of dope(y) in a dictionary. Right is right. Or is it?
Our president will come out for making dope even more legal than in the past. Twenty states and the District of Columbia have made pot legal, medical that is. Where did all the long lines to buy dope come from in the two states making it legal, so recently, all legal users? Yeah, and the cow jumped over the moon, too. These people came from the eastern states too, you legally can not carry drugs (dope) over the state lines and you must have a prescription. Wink, Wink. It will be OK! It is ... no to dope, it is not OK in any shape, form or reason. I do have a heart and it is for Jesus, but not a crutch for man.
The sad pard is it is coming to the Southern states, the Bible Belt. The leaders in this nation and the South should be royally ashamed of yourselves. Does a re-election or an election mean so much to you? As time goes by, one wonders seeing some people believe medical marijuana is the answer to all ills. It is not. It will be the question of who and how the young attains the dope. See the booze, for instance see Colorado and read the editorial of the Arkansas Democrat Gazette on Feb. 18. A push is on for medical pot, and I certainly hope the answer is no. Depends on how the lawyers write this up. I, too, will ask the question of just what are they smoking? Shame, shame, shame. God knows. If there is to be any disagreement, it will be best to carry the discord to the Maker of the Universe, God.
Read the four gospels of God. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Meet Jesus for the first time or re-up into the army of God and run into battle for what is right, Pot ain't right. Jesus will be right for all eternity. Do you wish to meet Jesus on a dope or a drunken high, medical or from a dealer? Do you really care?
Right is right, and wrong is still wrong.
