Hopefully it helps...

That's why I respect Marc Emery so much...He told our government to suck it while he was selling seeds to growers and giving the profits to help get it legalized here in America..

It's really sad that we're basically paying to live in America..Being taxed to death and all, and the government still arrests us for smoking pot so they can get more fucking money from us..What a great country we live in..

And no, I don't hate America. I hate the way our flawed system works; it makes no sense.
