I know a person. A good person, even though they may not see clear. He/she thinks of me as a lesser person, simply because I have tried drugs, marijuana, and cigarettes. Yet this same person is willing to say that what I do makes me less of a person, when they become excessively drunk quite often; to the point of violence on occasion. It doesn't create an issue within my life, but is one of those "chip on the shoulder" type of deals. You're not a better person. Few people have the ability to knowingly say "I am better than you". This is not one of those scenarios. Alcohol is in many cases killing brain cells in order to fit the social norm. Although this may not be true to all, I know the type. "I drank so much"; "you barely drink, that makes you a pussy". Please. Save me the time as any rational person will shoot these quotes down as they are easily dismissible. I am not a "skid" because I am more open minded. Marijuana does not make me less real than you because alcohol is legal. Alcohol at one point was prohibited too. And what happened? It allowed the rise of gangs in order to secure the opportunity to drink for many at the cost of a many. Does that seem right to you? How many times have the drones of society tried to bring you down with their so-called "knowledge"? I for one am tired. These are the brainwashed people that think that a flawed legal system's rules sets them above us. This is not true. I am not the sickness of society because I smoke, or because I choose to not drink and do other things instead. I am not an addict. I am not dependent on these things. Without weed and without cigarettes I would be able to function as well as I ever have. The social dependency on alcohol has become disgusting however. When people are willing to pay over ten dollars for a single legal beverage, we know we have to change. People need to open their minds. Maybe not to trying things, but to accepting the fact that other people will. Some people may take things too far, but not all of us are. I will never partake in anything that makes me look as foolish as those who choose to push their boundaries with liquor to the point where they are the spectacle of the evening. "I want to hear of a person who has smoked too much weed and went home to beat their wife, and beat their kids like you see on booze." I'm just saying, open your mind before your mouth.
