I’m actually going to say that any country that thinks it’s okay to lock people up for marijuana should change its drug laws. It’s a needlessly cruel punishment for a victimless crime and even if you want to argue that drugs are bad for society, it’s not like people aren’t still getting legally drunk.

I don’t know what to tell you. A lot of people here like weed, there’s nothing particularly western about it. Or at least western in a sense Russia isn’t western.

People obviously shouldn’t be imprisoned for marijuana regardless of anyone’s “western weed-smoking lifestyle”.

So you support these types of draconian anti-drug laws? I can understand why they exist, but it doesn’t make them right.

:I-was-saying: I think that Russia (likely thousands of miles away) should change its drug laws to best suit my Western weed-smoking lifestyle
