Stephen Harper and Marijuana Jesus

I didn't see Stephen Harper's YouTube performance tonight. But I did see the transcript.

And when I read what he said when he was asked about legalizing marijuana...

I think I’ve been very fortunate to live a drug-free life, and I don’t meet many people who’ve led a drug-free life who regret it. Met a lot of people who haven’t, who’ve regretted it. So this is something that we want to encourage obviously for our children, for everybody’s children. Now, I also want people to understand what we’re really talking about here when we’re talking about the drug trade. You know, when people say focus on violent crime instead of drugs, and yeah, you know, there’s lots of crimes a lot worse than, you know, casual use of marijuana. But when people are buying from the drug trade, they are not buying from their neighbour. They are buying from international cartels that are involved in unimaginable violence and intimidation and social disaster and catastrophe all across the world.

All I could say was holy shit didn't anyone ever tell that ridiculous nerd that Reefer Madness was NOT a serious documentary?

Or point out that he's making an argument FOR legalization.

And how come he forgot to mention that if you smoke he'll throw you in jail, and then you'll go to HELL?

Because isn't that what Marijuana Jesus told Jimmy Harper?

After Jimmy had a reefer...


Jesus Christ. Stephen Harper really is a dangerous fanatic.

Defeat him, smoke him up, give him a brownie.

Before he jails us all...

UPDATE: It's been brought to my attention that not all Christians believe in sending young Canadians to jail so they can be raped and tortured.

Like this group that likes to sing Jesus is My Friend.

But so is reefer...
