I think that post demonstrates the generational difference.

Joints are really no big deal to most young people, many states and soon Canada will have it legalized. Social stigma against pot is rapidly going away.

I wonder why you are so against the lighting of a joint in a music video? Hamish Imlach has a whole concert where he has a cigarette hanging in his guitar head. Nobody bats an eye, despite the fact that cigarettes are proven to be vastly more harmful than pot.

I didn't want to have to lay that out for you, I wanted to keep this away from people's views on drugs and more about the music.

Schweik, you have made yourself clear and I think you repeating yourself any more is a tad redundant, though of course you are welcome to. I just believe you are probably a bit too old to understand the music or the social, societal and clinical reasons why people smoke pot.

Now please, unless you're going to be against booze and cigarettes as much as pot, please refrain from the anti drug comments. As I said before, I care very little for your politics.


Smoke a joint, Shweik, maybe you'll cheer up :)
