“I hate them with every fiber in my being. I hate them more than anything else in this world. I have more hate for them than anyone who has hate for something and I assume the rest of my Straight Edge brethren would sympathize with me.
Why do I hate them?
-They are breaking the law.
-They are using a substance that is more cancer-causing than tobacco and more harmful to the brain than alcohol.
-They make up bullshit lies about marijuana being a relatively safe substance and being useful for medicinal purposes despite the fact that there are tons of studies proving otherwise.
-They are influencing the mass media and our culture into condemning anyone who doesn't do drugs and glamourizing this poisonous deliriant of a drug.
-They verbally harass and condemn everyone who doesn't smoke weed.
I would also like to make clear that everyone who thinks weed should be legalized is a pot smoker. And I'm sure none of you Straight Edgers associate with anyone who smokes weed. Thanks for understanding where I'm coming from."
Let me address this step by step.
"They are breaking the law"
"One has not only a legal, but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws." --Martin Luther King Jr.
Try waking the fuck up.
"They are using a substance that is more cancer-causing than tobacco and more harmful to the brain than alcohol."

Nice try. Try a bit of research and stray further than some bullshit health class controlled by the government or some fanatic Mormon TV commercial. Additionally, the intoxicating component of alcohol is a toxin, which kills brain cells when it is transported to the brain. However, THC is almost identical to a compound produced in the brain naturally and therefore does not do any damage.
"They make up bullshit lies about marijuana being a relatively safe substance and being useful for medicinal purposes despite the fact that there are tons of studies proving otherwise."
Same as above, but for good measure...

“They are influencing the mass media and our culture into condemning anyone who doesn't do drugs and glamourizing this poisonous deliriant of a drug.”
Sure, there are some forces in the media that try to glamorize drugs. Don’t get me wrong; I am deeply fed up with vapid teenage Americans wanting to get “fucked up” because they have nothing else to do with their pathetic lives. But cannabis has been used as an entheogen since before Christ was born. Don’t disrespect a sacrament central to a religion. I don’t care what your view about god is; I respect everyone and their beliefs just the same.
“They verbally harass and condemn everyone who doesn't smoke weed.”
That’s terribly ironic, considering straight-edge people tend to do the same thing… “I hate them with every fiber in my being. I hate them more than anything else in this world. I have more hate for them than anyone who has hate for something”…fucking hypocrite.
“I would also like to make clear that everyone who thinks weed should be legalized is a pot smoker.”
I sympathize with the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, but I am an Norwegian American, not a Palestinian. I haven’t even fucking been to Palestine, or Asia for that matter. You’re clearly delirious if you would associate an individual seeking justice for RELIGIONS, PATIENTS, or even unrelated individuals with smoking pot themselves. I do not support legalization of drugs; I support freedom and justice.
“And I'm sure none of you Straight Edgers associate with anyone who smokes weed.”
And lastly, you’re wrong. I know plenty of straight edgers who associate with people who smoke weed, because they aren’t indoctrinated, close-minded little fucks like you. They have respect for people despite their personal decisions. If someone went around refusing to associate with people who smoked pot, the only people you would be associated with is the youth group at your church, comprised of conservative little chimp fuckers whose parents haven’t sworn in their lives. You haven’t even left your suburban little home, have you, you fucking coward.
