Lies Potheads Tell

Pro-Marijuana Lies

George Washington probably smoked weed. Hemp could become a fuel for all our cars. Hemp is a viable substitute for nylon. Hemp could become a source for all our paper needs. The Declaration of Independence was written on hemp paper. I wince whenever I hear an inaccurate statement, be it pro, or anti-marijuana.

I believe in the righteousness of cannabis legalization. We have enough factual, verifiable, truth on our side without having to rely on myths and half-truths to support our positions. Whenever someone bases an argument on any of there shaky suppositions, he weakens the cause of legalization.

In that spirit I would like to post a collection of pro-marijuana myths and expose them in the hope that people will eventually stop using them to justify legalization. There are plenty of GOOD reasons why pot should be legal, there's no need to use any of the following wives' tales:
