That just reminded me of this garbage I read the other day... some statistics the DOJ came up with to prove that marijuana does contribute to other crime.

They drug tested a bunch of people who got arrested and (amazingly, NOT) found that a large number of those people tested positive for drugs (namely, marijuana).

What's funny is that they completely fail to mention how many of those people were arrested FOR DRUG POSSESSION (which is like, 80-90% of all arrests nationwide).

OF COURSE someone who is arrested for pot possession is going to test positive for marijuana, and someone who is arrested for cocaine possession is going to test positive for cocaine. DUH. It isn't surprising at all that when the majority of people are arrested for drug possession, they're going to test positive for drugs! That doesn't IN ANY WAY link drug use with crime, other than the fact that drug use ITSELF is a crime.

Someone in another thread accused me of hating America.

They're right. I do hate America. It's fucking stupid. Our laws are stupid, and our legislators are even stupider.

And don't even get me started on the law enforcement in this country....
