What's the New Mary Jane?
I like Eric Schlosser.
He made his name with a really good, shocking piece of old-fashioned muckraking, and is now parlaying that fame into one of his pet causes -- smoking pot.
This is all stuff I thought everyone knew, of course. But clearly if everyone knew it, there wouldn't be 700,000 people in jail for marijuana crimes.
Anyway, let's hope Schlosser's respectability means the beginning of the end of Upstanding Liberal support for a Drug-Free America.
Hey -- I got a Kerry campaign slogan: "A Free-Drugs America"
...Am I the only one who thinks the new anti-drug ads are a bit preachy? |
