“My theory is that everything went to hell with Prohibition, because it was a law nobody could obey. So the whole concept of the rule of law was corrupted at that moment. Then came Vietnam, and marijuana, which clearly shouldn't be illegal, but is. If you go to jail for ten years in Texas when you light up a joint, who are you? You're a lawbreaker.

And success is success.” PeopleNeedsShouldMadeReasonMightHappensLawNumbersStepsIssuesProgressThings HappenPassingPassingsVoting Author:Clay Aiken
