“What Weed Can Teach Us About Justice”
Read the above sentence again…
What weed can teach us about justice is the lesson that we can learn from Mary Jane…
That lovable character that likes to get passed around at parties…
Who often originated with the white guy who’s rockin’ the dreadzzz.
The role of marijuana in today’s society is a perfect case of the lack of common sense that rules our legal system.
They say weed is a drug.
They are fucking retarded.
If weed is a drug…
Then sugar is a drug…
And caffeine is a drug…
And they are all equal, but not the same.
They are all as equal and different as the falling snow on the streets of Toronto in mid-January…
No two snowflakes are alike – at the same time – no two snow flakes are bad, or good…
They just are.
Trying to classify weed or any substances, foods, behaviours or preferences as good, bad or evil is blasphemy for one simple reason:
We are all unique individuals and what is good for Tim is not necessarily good for Jane, Flavia, Ping or Shaniqué.
Treat it on a case by case basis, but remember to remain respectful of the individual’s freedom to choose to live the way that they want to live… as long as it does not prevent others from living the way that they want to live.
This, my friends, is the future of the legal system… If, and ONLY IF… We want to live in a society ruled by common sense and good will.
