Yet another reason...

Allow me to present reason #2646 why we need to legalize marijuana: Art Garfunkel was caught yet again in possession, this time with a joint in his car's ashtray when he was pulled over. He has been charged with possession of marijuana.

Um, excuse me, but this is Art Garfunkel. We're talking Lieutenant Nately here! Not to mention, he also formed a little group in the 60's you may have heard of called Simon and Garfunkel. Let the man toke up if he wants to. Without drugs, who knows what 60's music would have been like? (Probably like 50's music.)

(Note: Garfunkel was apparently smoking up while driving, and since marijuana does alter one's consciousness, I would not object to equating this with driving under the influence. I propose, as I always have, that we legalize marijuana, but regulate it similarly to alcohol consumption. And, of course, drop the legal age for both to 18.)

Song lyric of the day:
"There's no need to complain
We'll eliminate your pain
We can neutralize your brain
Buy a big bright green pleasure machine"
- Simon and Garfunkel
