The BIGGEST pot smokers I know vote republican........
seriously.

I'm not going to bash pot smokers here, just hypocritical ones who believe the War on Drugs is actually a good thing, then get away with not being arrested because they are white men who aren't even on the radar of local law enforcement because of who they are.

Also, the most craven, truly immoral people I know vote republican. That tells me a lot.

1. Then call the cops on them.
Edited on Sat Nov-20-04 08:26 PM by HypnoToad
They'll be felons in no time and unable to vote.

Sorry to be harsh, but this is an ideological civil war. Has been for something like 30 years. They're hypocrites so have their fellow repubs take them away and see where they then stand.

4. If they are in Texas, they can get their voting rights back.
One thing Texas is progressive about is voting and voter registration. :shrug:

7. And I just want to say
I know I am engaging in generalizations here, but I really start to wonder when I cannot find a single Democrat who does stuff like this:

Goes on and on about how moral she is and how screwed up everyone else is, then pulls her newest Vicodin prescription from her purse that she wrangled out of her doctor for her "pain" (tee hee hee hee) and offers me one. Just "for fun."

20. I thought you were talking about someone I knew there for
just one second! That's two Republican voting, pot smoking Vicodin popping, hypocrites verified in Texas.

Tell me, does she wear too much make-up, also? Mine does, she uses a trowel to put it on I am pretty sure!

Surprising isn't it? But it goes with their mindset of self-centeredness.

no shit. Some of us were talking about that (we were all Dems) and we said "where does someone even GET that stuff nowdays?" and someone else said "republicans."

We laughed pretty hard because it was TRUE.

16. you know, moonbeam, i have been thinking alot about this
All of the people that i know that voted boosh and describe themselves as conservative are pot smokers (and other drugs), and/or are living or had lived with someone prior to marriage, had many relationships with many people prior to marriage (with the help of contraception), have been divorced, are not church goers, and truthfully, some have had abortions, or had a SO that had an abortion (at least sometime) in the past 20 years. I can never understand what conservative values mean in the real world, with real people, and why they would vote to have all this changed. I guess it is the big disconnect that we are hearing about.

27. Uh-huh
there's nothing wrong with being divorced, remarried, caught in a bad marriage, all that stuff, but what turns my stomach is when they sit there crapping on everyone else like they are so pristine, when they aren't!

(When you point that out to them, they get REALLY pissed!)

22. BINGO!
That's EXACTLY how they feel and one even TOLD me that. He said "we're the only people who can be trusted with it."

I think they feel that way about money too.

The morals thing is just a smokescreen for greed.

23. Weird.
I don't know any republican pot-smokers.

Actually, besides my father-in-law, I don't know any republicans. So I guess I'm just lucky.

26. You are so right.
I know a guy who runs a limo service, and as he reports, many of the guys who used his service were gun-ho bushites, and they ALL smoked pot in his car.

28. I have a stoner, environmentalist friend who's a Repuke
In fact, he's extremely right wing. And he has a disabled daughter who's gotten all kinds of government assistance. I will never, ever figure this guy out. I guess I should be happy that he's at least an environmentalist but what good does that do if you keep voting Republican? Like what's the point of having a stand on any issue if you are always going to vote against people who support it? :crazy:

29. hold on here people, starting to sound like you all think
potheads are stupid and thus republican, when in actual fact you are talking about stupid potheads that voted republican.

Come on if you really wanted to find some herb befriend a college student, go to music/hippie/pagan fests.

Im here to tell you that there are more pot smokin' libs/dems then there are repubs/cons. I mean its not even close. I travel a lot and have lived in 13 different states, trust me on this the ratio has got to be 80-20 at best.

30. Oh no
I'm not bashing pot smokers, I'm bashing pot smokers who are big ol' hypocrites and sit there acting like THEY can only be trusted with pot and who support the war on drugs (stupidest. thing. ever.).

Not potheads in general.

32. okay I was getting ready to burst into tears, Im emotionally charged
when Im high...

Now that i know so many of you wouldnt mind puffing, but cant. I will think of you when I light my bowls!!!

Its just wrong that you dont get to do this and these scourge of the earth can do whatever they want, because being white means being able to smoke off the radar.

Im all mad now, I need to go hot tub Ill be back with haikus!! Just you wait!!!

31. Yeah but......
.....lib/dem will admit to it, think of how many secret Repuke potheads there are.......

By the way, what is the definition of a pothead? I'd say it's someone who smokes too much...like a drunk....which isn't really something to be proud of. I wouldn't call an occasional smoker a pothead.......I only call potheads the people who smoke way too much, and it shows!

34. well Im into taking back labels, and it seems repubs and other uptighters
Edited on Sat Nov-20-04 09:35 PM by frictionlessO
use the label pothead to reefer (extra e on purpose) to anyone who dabbles in it.

Besides someone who smokes too much dope, is a rare bird indeed. If you dont get your shit done then yeah you probably get high too often, other than that and hurting your lungs what the heck is smoking too much classified as. Is that what you meant by "and it shows"??

I dont care if you want to smoke it all day long, as long as you have your act together pay your bills and are in general a good person. Does that differ from the "occasional" smoker scenario??

edited: this sounds way more harsh than I meant it to be. Just trying to figure out your viewpoints sorry if it comes off other than that...:+ O8) :loveya:

36. That is what I mean by "it shows"......
Not doing their job, and generally looking stoned 24/7, and their favorite saying is "Huh?" and "What?". I mean, MAYBE they are coincidentally stupid, but it's hard to believe that weed doesn't have something to do with the particular people I know being so damn lazy and slow.
