Andrew Sullivan made a good point on Bill Maher's show last week, that everyone laughs and thinks pot laws are funny and makes stoner jokes but the reality is that the enforcement of marijuana laws are racist and expensive and destroy millions of people's lives... over something that everyone else jokes about.
I'm not stoned and can't stand the smell of pot, but I read The Stranger (or at least Slog - it's fun setting off the filters in various public places in oh-my-heck land).
Why do those back east tax-subsidized "conservatives" hate our Seattle job-creating taxpaying activities so very very much? Were they planning on exporting those US jobs to their Comrades in Red China or something?
