"I lived a pretty normal life as a kid growing up so yes, I have. It's been some time."
He lived a normal life and so of course he smoked up as a young man. It is normal…IT IS NORMAL…for people to consume this illicit drug.
This drug has been banned since 1923 and yet almost 80 years later it is still considered normal to consume it. Hell I will wager that it is far more normal than it was in the 1920s. Talk about a failure of government policy.
It also begs the question of what is the point of trying to stop people from smoking cannabis in the first place.
Watch out kids! If you smoke up that weed stick you might end up being some loser, like the leader of a major political party in Canada’s largest province (or like the President of the United States for that matter).
The pointlessness of marijuana prohibition is mind boggling.
