Gay Marriage in New York, yet I Still Can't Smoke a Joint.....Backwards much??

I have nothing against people who are gay.  It makes no difference to me who someone loves and or marries.  I honestly could give a shit less.

Now what I don't understand is why marijuana is still illegal??   I just think we have our priorities fucked up along the way somewhere.  Big time!!!!!  I am happy for New York and every other state that recognizes same sex marriage.  Why the hell is our country so broke when we can make money off of a plant.  It's a plant.  I know, I know--  It's illegal.  I still don't understand why.  Alcohol kills more people but I can go get a beer right now.  Seems fucking stupid to me.  I am only expressing my opinion, which I am allowed to do by one of the  rights I feel I actually have left in this horrible excuse for a country.  It'a all about politics and money and most of all greed!!  I don't really talk politics on my blog much but when something seems so simple, I just don't get it.  Oh and our lack of tree problems.... duh, hello, start growing hemp and making paper and so many other things it's ridiculous.  Save the rain forest, plant some damn hemp.   The Constitution is printed on it yet I can't smoke it.  What the fuck?
