STOP SUBSIDIZING GANGSTERS

The whole issue of marijuana legalization demonstrates the insanity 
and hypocrisy inherent in our society.

These 4/20 people are asking that a herb with dozens of medical 
applications be legalized and regulated into the legitimate economy 
- -- not just so they can enjoy it, but also so it will reduce the 
profits reaped by gangsters due to the prohibition on it, and reduce 
the public violence and soaring costs associated with it. These 
"potheads" want something that is unregulated and subsidizing 
gangsters to be regulated and taxed.

Yet the potheads get labelled as the crazy ones.
