WHO' S STUPID?

Re: Pot Smokers Are Stupid, McLellan Says, Nov. 3.

Public Safety Minister Anne McLellan is a smoker. Imagine if illegal
grow-ops had to supply her habit. Given that some heavy chain smokers
indulge in up to 60 cigarettes a day, she may be consuming about two
ounces of tobacco a day. Your typical pot smoker consumes this in a
month or two.

Again, assuming she is a chain smoker, her habit would require one
pound of tobacco a week or about 50 pounds a year. This would require
one average size home grow-op just to supply her habit of smelly
carcinogenic weed.

Who is looking stupid now?
