Calvina Fay’s Hypocrisy

I recently saw a Fox News interview with Rob Kampia and Calvina Fay as guests. Before I go any further I would like to point out how much I despise Fox News for it’s blatant fear mongering and loud opinions camouflaged as news. However if you YOU TUBE (c) “marijuana legislation” they (FOX) have some considerable hits and most of those hits have at the least diverse viewpoints if not that of legalization.

To get back to the point of the Kampia/Fay debate I found something that Fay said extremely telling of how unstable the prohibitionist ground is. Her quote was that if regulated and taxed “we would not be able to police the people” growing in basements, attics etc and therefore would be unable to tax them. She went on to say that prohibition has NOT failed. This lady is crooked. Her idea is that we shouldn’t tax marijuana because we couldn’t police it so we should just continue to POLICE IT even though she herself just said it was impossible to police!? This woman is dumber than a bag of hammers or all the PHARMA money along with tobacco and alcohol lobbyists got her wondering which way is up or both.

I propose we re-schedule marijuana so that we can get some testing done and while we are at it maybe the D.E.A. might think about ACTUALLY doing its job and scheduling Alcohol and Tobacco because I find it awfully mysterious that two of the most addictive, deadly and non-medicinal drugs are NOT EVEN scheduled.
