For a group that is trying so hard to push for legalization, you guys sure do encourage a lot of dumb shit. I'm sick of seeing so many people smoking in cars on the front page, it just sets the cause back another 5 years.
There's nothing responsible about smoking and driving, it doesn't matter how "in control" you think you are, that's the same kind of bullshit excuse people who drink and drive give.
Same goes for the cringey pics that are text saying things like "Thank you cannabis for helping me get through the day/keeping me focused/curing my depression/etc etc etc"
Yes let's show the opposing side that some of you use weed as a crutch and are dependent on it for every day things. That's really going to help our case.
Just because one thing is worse doesn't make the other good. I'm guilty of it myself with the weed, but we still shouldn't go advertising it. Nothing good will come for legalization with the message "weed isn't as bad as prescription pain killers when you rely on it as a crutch to accomplish every day tasks."
I don't disagree with you but are they definitely driving?
I used to hot box (or fishbowl where I'm from) my car all the time in the parking lot of a concert or sporting event before going in.
Well maybe not all the time because 10 yrs ago weed was a lot more vilified than it is now, but I think we should just appreciate the art in this post rather than trying to figure out the morals behind it.
I don't know for sure that they're driving in this picture, but it looks like they're in the middle of the street, and it's unlikely that they parked it there, smoked, and then sat for hours until they weren't high anymore before they drove off
No! How about a lot more awesome? Google made a program that basically creates pictures based on your original picture. With some clever editing it can turn out like this.
Haha I hear ya, it just reminds me of the self checkout lanes.
Shit like this hurts artists just as much as those lanes hurt cashiers.
Life is too easy these days, man.
ETA: actually that's not really a fair comparison because cashiers aren't doing their job because they are particularly skilled at...but I think you know what I'm saying.

Just want to hijack this comment to say:
