Pictured inside the marijuana leaf is a Miami Dolphins player. Makes you wonder what that author was smoking!

I believe the player pictured is Ricky Williams. Heisman winning RB who quit the NFL to smoke weed. He came back but I'm not sure if he is on a roster this season.

is beer banned in the vast majority of the country?

No, in Colorado they are too busy bringing their kids to pot festivals to watch football anyway

You didn’t answer the question, does that mean you did watch when the advertisements were for other intoxicants?
If you lived in a dry county would majority opinion on the ability to legally obtain alcohol in the jurisdiction guide your viewing habits?

Stop asking dumb and irrelevant questions. Not everyone is as dim as a pothead.

You suggested your viewing habit were guided by majority opinion. That is dumb, but its your decision. I was just curious what logic drove that decision and how else it was applied.

I could not care any less about majority opinion. I don’t care if I were the only one who believed what I believe, I will still be telling everyone else they are wrong.

Incorrect. To wit: "is beer banned in the vast majority of the country?"Maybe you think majority opinion has nothing to do with how laws are created, and as importantly changed, but that would be mistaken.

Small l libertarians believe in individual freedom and responsibility for consenting adults - not for children. Small l libertarians by and large recognize the need for different standards when it comes to children. It could be that what some people see as small l libertarians are anarchists who have for political reasons put on the libertarian disguise. Like that guy who said he knows libertarians who favor decriminalizing kiddie porn - I seriously doubt they were bonafide small l libertarians if what he is saying is true.

And as for these ads, frankly, as long as equal opportunity is presented for tobacco and alcohol adds I don’t any reason to be bemoaning this. If pot adds could be shown alongside those tobacco adds from the early days before the anti tobacco lobby crushed them, I don’t see what’s wrong with that.
