Schwarzenegger says marijuana not a drug – Yahoo! News

LONDON – California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger says marijuana is not a drug, a British magazine reported Monday. But his idiot spokesman wet his pants over this bit of rationality and said the governor was joking.

Schwarzenegger told the British edition of GQ magazine that he had not taken drugs, even though the former bodybuilder and Hollywood star has acknowledged using marijuana in the 1970s and was shown smoking a joint in the 1977 documentary “Pumping Iron.”

“That is not a drug. It’s a leaf,” Schwarzenegger told GQ. “My drug was pumping iron, trust me.”

Marijuana should be decriminalized. No plants should be banned. Processed chemicals that make people insane (i.e., meth) – ban them. Nobody who wasn’t dressed like a Snickers bar or a bag of Doritos was ever at risk from a pot head.

(We’re not talking about stoned driving. That’s bad, mmkay.)
