Gene:

This is a bummer --- another blow to personal choice and freedom. Besides, we don't want people to become enlightened and stress-free just because they light up, do we?

THEY want their sheeple to always live in FEAR, have dumbed-down minds, and exhibit no form of intellectual curiosity whatsoever. Also, they want their sheeple to NEVER QUESTION AUTHORITY!!

That's what THIS is all about any way . . .

And if that isn't enough of a paradox for you, word just came in that CHEECH & CHONG are in production of what they are calling a "sequel" to UP IN SMOKE . . . so maybe there's hope after all?
