Smokin'!

There is some kind of bill going through Congress that has something to do with making it okay to possess small amount of marijuana. Read about it HERE.

It's a bit confusing, but the backers have the burden of common sense on their side (this of course means nothing in Washington DC). Why can I grow tulips but not marijuana? Why can I smoke tobacco and not pot? Oh, because Uncle Sam is in bed with tobacco growers. Right.

But the points the article conveys is that perhaps if this bill went through, it would free our police force up a bit to focus on violent criminals.
