INDIANAPOLIS — Where’s the best place to market marijuana to people already buzzing from alcohol?

At a NASCAR race, of course.

The pro-marijuana advocacy group has a video billboard promoting marijuana as an alcohol alternative. That ad — which boasts “Marijuana: Less harmful than alcohol and time to treat it that way" — is being shown outside the grounds of Indianapolis Motor Speedway the next three days as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series takes to the track for Sunday’s Brickyard 400.

What’s the difference between a drunk driver & a stoned driver?

A drunk driver will blow right past a stop sign. A stoned driver will stop & wait for it to turn green.

Yup. Years ago I pulled up to a stop sign higher than a kite and couldn’t figure out why the car was shaking.

Then I remembered the clutch.

My friend who was with me said “That’s why they call it dope”.

Perhaps the drivers should both drink and smoke. In fact, let us have a couple of teams who drink and a couple of teams who smoke and see who performs better. Now that would be entertaining and useful.

>>The last thing I need to hear about is hypocrisy from the pro drug crowd.

That’s the point. Alcohol is a drug. Nicotine is a drug. Pot is a drug. All three are natural. The beer and cigarette fans are pro-drug too. At least the pot fans are honest.

Those who attempt to spread vice should be suppressed. However, that would require a strong people who desire to have themselves as a Free People survive. Our culture is now in love with death.(See Livy as he describes his people as of the time he wrote his history, same thing as today.)

Good luck with that. Meth, maybe, but not MJ.

Alcohol is the reason NASCAR exists.

Alky got her started and RJ Reynolds (Winston) put her on the front page of the sports section.

It amazes me the feral government, which loves free money as much as power, hasn't legalized pot, taxed it, and put all those fighting forces from the vaunted "War on Drugs" to work gathering free tax dollars.

They may figure they're taking in more in assest forfeitures than they'd be able to collect in taxes.

NASCAR is boring enough as it is, I can’t imagine every lap taking ten minutes.

No kidding, the cars will all be driving 32 m.p.h., painted in psychedelic colors. Grateful Dead music will be blaring out of the speakers.
