Maryland lawmakers renew push to legalize and tax marijuana

#News420 “”Marijuana is safer than alcohol,” said Del. Curt Anderson, a Baltimore Democrat.”

Truth. It’s time to end drug-biased discrimination. Just be cause my drug of choice is different from your drug of choice, does NOT give you the right to label me as “evil” or “bad” or “more likely to commit crimes”. The only “crime” most illegal drug users commit is getting and using their drug of choice…you know, because you made it ILLEGAL for them to do the same thing as you…they just choose a different way to “take the edge off”…maybe because their edge is worse than yours. Maybe they’re just weak.
Hey…We’re all just just human, and everyone has a drug. Alcohol, coffee, nicotine, valium, sex, religion, lithium, power, money, success. Whatever your drug of choice may be, you are a hypocrite to paint someone else in a negative light simply because their drug of choice is not the same as yours. What’s next, locking people up for not liking the same music that you do?
Keep your laws off my soul. #Resist

Organizers Will Not Move Forward With Gathering Of The Vibes In 2017

So, Gathering of the Vibes 2017 is not happening. Again.

Wow. Second year in a row without the Vibes. Somebody needs to take up the torch because it seems Ken Hays has obviously lost his balls and will to compete. Even if it means moving the festival from Bridgeport. How about somebody in Vermont? Anyone? Bueller?

Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and What You’re Not Being Told About Trump’s Travel Ban

Why was Saudi Arabia excluded from the ban? Oil and the U$ Dollar.

“Without oil-rich nations using the U.S. dollar to trade their product — and without the gold standard — there’s nothing keeping the dollar’s worth from crashing. And if that occurs, world markets would feel the boom with only America truly hurting since its currency would lose its worth, boosting other world powers.”
