I can't count how many newspaper reports I've read since the 1970's recounting an arrest situation, and the perp was described as being 'crazed on marijuana'.

As if...

...the reporter could know what drug, if any, the perp had taken, and...

...one could get 'crazed' on marijuana...

They make these "mistakes" all the time and they only go one direction.

Fox is brainwashing the Elderly. Complain every time you see it on in public.

And yet...even I know that picture is complete nonsense.

What’s wrong with the jackasses over at Fox. You will never convince me that some of them do not partake or did in the their younger years.

"a marijuana" is?

I smoked a little pot when I was young but started having a bad reaction to it so I had to stop. Did I miss something by quiting it so young?

If that's how they're trying to use MJ, they ain't gonna get no kinda high off of that...my bet would be nothing happens and so they just go back to smoking the meth.

But yeah the (literal) false equalivalancy is some Reefer Madness level propaganda here heh...
