Enough said!

As Mr Mackey – the school counsellor from South Park – is wont to say: “Drugs are bad!”
One only has to read a recent article from the Timaru Herald [click on headline] about protests over legal cannabis use to realise the much-maligned Mr Mackey has a good point. And by just looking at the calibre of the dropouts, losers and proponents of the ‘legalise marijuana movement’ who made up the ‘supporters’ of the man facing jail over cannabis charges protesting outside the Timaru Courthouse they could be used to make up an anti-drug advertisement .
Apparently, Peter John Frances Davy, 51, is threatening to go on a hunger strike if he is jailed for possession of cannabis, cultivating cannabis, importing cannabis seed and unlicensed possession of a rifle. In a protest against "the persecution of New Zealand's medical cannabis users", Davy told the newspaper he would go on a hunger strike and would not take his cancer medicines.
While the more sanguine of us amongst the general population probably feel Mr Davy’s demise and removal from the human gene pool would be no bad thing. However, not so according to the good people of – the inappropriately named protest group – NORML (National Organisation for the Reform of Marijuana Law). [What could possibly be ‘normal’ about a bunch of unemployed, old-aged, smelly hippies hanging on to the outdated philosophies of the 1960s of drugs for everyone in the year 2011? But hey, it is not their fault – they have smoked far too much dope to make any sense.]
Anyway, according to spokesman Dakta Green, who founded The Daktory – which promotes the medical use of cannabis (and is living proof of the danger cannabis actually is to logical human thought processes) – supporters left Auckland last Friday and arrived in Timaru to stage an overnight protest outside the local courthouse. Some 15 or so bludgers supporters had come from as far afield as Auckland, Waihi, Wellington and Dunedin. (Unsurprisingly – for a bunch of useless, dope smokers – their day-long protest wound up about 2 pm!)
"When we heard of Pete's plight, it wasn't too hard to say `let's go down and support him'," Green said. "We find it obnoxious and obscene for a medical user of cannabis to be treated as a criminal."
Perhaps Mr Green and his reality-dodging friends might be surprised to learn that 90 per cent of the country’s population find it ‘obnoxious and obscene’ that a bunch of pot-smoking, moochers can bludge off the rest us, while they travel all over the country advocating
Davy admitted the charges in February and was due to be sentenced yesterday in Timaru District Court, but the case was adjourned to April 20 so that his newly appointed counsel could receive disclosure.
Green said the group hoped a judge would see reason and not incarcerate Davy.
On this count I agree with Green. It would be far better for Davy to go through with is hunger protest and let nature take its course.
This would save taxpayers on numerous fronts. Paying a sickness benefit, hospital bills and prison costs for such a hopeless case and ridding the country of a remnant of a bygone era that falsely believed that marijuana was a harmless drug that does not damage to society!
