Stop it!! lol. I'm really confused that it is still Tuesday, in most places. What happened to dinner?? But, seriously, (not that you care) I did use to take part in illegal substances. Ya know part of why I stopped? I realized, and thought about, the fact that death happened as a result. Because gangs were involved. That didn't seem like it should be that way. Why should I just go get them at the store, the way the doctors wanted to dose me with serious and mind-altering stuff? Nope. The stuff I liked, and that worked for me, was illegal, and there were sad consequences. I had to accept that. And decide. So I didn't use them. And I didn't use what the doctors thought were good (but were more mind-altering and boring, taboot). Would I ever dis an American of foreign farmer for growing a crop that makes them a living? Nope. Do tomatoes make a farmer a living? No. Think about it. Pay the people a living a wage to feed you, or accept what they grow. I would never again wear wornout pants if I grew pot. Why don't I? Not because it's illegal. Not because it's "bad". I just don't want to be a part of a violent world that I was once too much a part of. But I wear worn clothes. And I don't have to. I could grow pot and be well off. Is that nuts? Y'all like your cheap food and gas?
