Tobacco CEO’s Need Exorbitant Profits Too

Excellent cartoons. The “justice system” in America is so insane it’s just unbelievable to me that not everyone can see that. People are just so easily manipulated by “just say no” type propaganda. It’s fucking sad.

Would you mind if we used your work on our website?

In the future say, Judicial System not the Justice System.

This is just ridiculous. I am a victim of the “Justice” system’s Marijuana Laws and it is the dumbest thing ever. Even for being at the wrong place at the wrong time you have to pay $700 plus serve 24 hours of community service (which you’re paying for as part of the $700 fees) AND be on supervised probation for 12 months?? OUTRAGEOUS! Not only that but its hard enough to try to find a job WITHOUT a misdemeanor charge on your record, and with it you have to wait at least a year before anyone will consider you. Why should I be punished for the wrong doings of someone who abused me that I was trying to get away from? I want to know what kind of logic these people have so I can understand the way their tiny brains are trying to work.

Ok, before I go into this, I do want to say that I am fully supportive of drug legalization laws similar to the laws governing the use of alcohol – in other words, I believe that ALL drugs should be legal for possession with restrictions on where said drugs can be consumed.

Having said that, as an asthmatic, I am greatly offended by the short sightedness of this comic. If I go near a lit marijuana cigarette, my lungs close up. I have actually had to go to ER because someone was smoking marijuana on the street.

This comic implies that there are no victims of marijuana. That simply is not true. Like I said, I am fully in favor of legalization of not only marijuana, but of the possession of all drugs (including meth). While I choose not to partake in any illicit substances, I do not believe the government has any right to prohibit us from possession or use of said substances.

Its really sad the way marijuana users are treated in the US. The justice system puts more people in jail for possession of minor amounts of marijuana than it does for those convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol. What is also bad is that a conviction for possession of marijuana will bar you from obtaining public housing and grants for higher education. If you commit assault, you are not barred from either one. The ‘war on drugs’ has done nothing to curb the usage of marijuana. All it has done is created more poverty, homelessness and outrageous numbers of inmates.

This is more sad then funny. Can we PLEASE stop locking people up for possessing a piece of a plant????

This may be an old comic but I love you!

Maybe the worst part is the fact that probably upwards of 99% of men arrested, charged, prosecuted, and imprisoned for possession of marijuana, have all of this done to them by equal or lesser men who are hopelessly addicted to cigarettes AND alcohol! It’s so ironic someone should learn the meaning of the word irony and then write a song about it! (Notice I didn’t even mention that those same ‘men’ treat the law like a book of suggestions in their own lives. It would be funny if it weren’t so freaking wrong. Al Capone is a dashing anti-hero who has had movies made about his life and exploits but T-Dog in Palm Island Apartments is Public Enemy #1 for selling a dime bag or two. What’s so insulting is they don’t even try to provide the illusion that any or this is fair or makes sense.

So true

Amen to post 63. My father was a 30 year Houston police officer and for most of those years an abusive alcoholic and or addicted to perscription drugs. The latter of which has put him in the hospital twice in the last three months and will kill him soon. I can’t tell you how many times he got off for DUI (drugs or alcohol) because he “used” to be a cop. Last time he missed the turn on his way home and ended up in a city 60 miles Southwest of Houston. The police there put him up in a Holiday Inn to sleep it off till morning.

amen to that brother

I think maybe the best way to avoid getting fined for drugs it to maybe just not use or have them….

hi i really like the cartoons for the humor and the sense that they make esspecially the first one. yeah i hate to say it but my life has really been put in shambles as a result of being arrested for marijuana. i got my first felony charge when i was growing a seven inch plant with two sets of leaves at the top in a closet in my house.i was growing it myself to make sure it was completly safe for personal use. when i was away from home one day working my landlord decided to go inside my house and search through my belongings. he finds a my plant and calls the police. when i return home from a good hatd days work i find about four police officials with a special investigations unit in my yard. apparently in the state of north carolina landlords can legally waltz in to your house without your conseant wnvr they plz when i always was under the impression it was against the law but in any event its not and im thrown in jail with a maintaining a medium for the manufacture of marijuana FELONY. when i went to court i plead to a deal of completing a exstensive drug court program that was a full time time job for a year and if i successfully completed the program my charges would all be dismissed. so i say fair enough and although the program was torture and hell i put up with it, did well and completed it after a year well when i finished everyone clapped and they gave me a certifacate but didnt drop tne charges in fact the felony remains on my record to this day and will for the rest of my life. eversince this getting a job and feeling human has been a challenge. this is a very sincere and true story….
