We?ll tell you what he loves what he really really loves. Oops, wrong band there, and completely the wrong gender.
Saying that though, some of The Spice Girls looked like they could have been closet transsexuals didn't they? Elsewhere, we had Take That – a watered down music act for girls to love.
Instead of telling girls to embrace their inner rebel, Take That made all girls drool from their chops. With a well-timed move here and a ripped shirt there, Take That had a massive audience, even if their songs were arse. Out of all the members, Robbie Williams stood out to all the band’s fans. Once he left, he went onto release a variety of albums, spot a variety of UFOs and – for the entirety of 2009 – smoke a variety of marijuana. He says it's lovely, so therefore we think it is too.
Don't believe us? Well, here?s a lovely comment made from the porky singer. Only now can we realise that making fun of his weight was cruel – it wasn’t his fault; it was because he had the munchies. Soon we?ll be apologising to ginger people when evidence emerges that their red hair comes from dipping it into lava. Anyway, Robbie said:
?Weed, it's such a lovely drug. It is such a lovely drug. But it doesn't mix well with me ? at all.?
Doesn't mix well? As in it's a dangerous concoction like water and electricity, woman and technology or a Twilight fan with a grain of intelligence? Say it isn't so, Robbie Williams. We wouldn't want to lose you as a musician. After all, you’ve given such epic songs as erm? Rudebox, and that one where you sing about the year 2000
We think lots of stuff is lovely. Like the confused look on a puppy’s face when you squirt it with water, or when Page Three models try to give an informed opinion on the day?s news. But smoking marijuana? Come on Robbie, it isn't the mid nineties again, you know. Back then, all the kids were spending their pocket money on drugs instead of chocolate. Have you just caught up now?
Perhaps you could educate the youth of today by giving up the drugs and telling them about the wonders of pie addiction. After all, there are so many different types. Pork, beef, apple and our favourite 3.14 with double cream. Add in a handful of chips and you\’ll soon be a young porker like Robbie Williams. He may need to actually start doing this, as the drug charity types aren't impressed about his marijuana promotion. David Gilbert, chief executive of drugs education and awareness charity DARE, said:
?This is grossly irresponsible. He is a role model. Young people look up to him, they admire him, they want to emulate him so saying something like this is thoughtless.?
Can we suggest sending Robbie Williams to a desert island so he?ll never bother us again with his evil drug-taking antics? Actually, scratch that. Let's send him to a dessert island instead! Haw haw.
Ahem.

7,000 people were murdered by the Mexican drug cartels last year because we in the US kept marijuana illegal, many of the victims were children, police officers and politicians. This year the cartels are on track to kill at least 9,000 more. Who supports keeping it illegal?

The prohibitionists and the cops,lawyers,prison system.

Marijuana use itself is not that bad, it’s the marijuana laws that are the problem. If someone chooses to consume marijuana, they should do it responsibly. The first step toward re-education on marijuana is getting people to realize what the current laws are. Depending on which state you are in, you can get jail time and hefty fines for just testing positive for marijuana or possessing a used pipe. Want to know what the marijuana laws are in your state? Go to http://www.theweedblog.com to find out. There is lots of interesting stuff on that site.

@Jillian: That’s exactly right; these cartels make a good 2/3 of their revenue through marijuana trafficking. Legalizing marijuana wouldn’t put them out of business completely, but it would deal a major blow to their income, political influence, and power. This would send the murder rate in Juarez and other cities plummeting. There simply is not enough demand for all other illegal substances combined — which these folks are already peddling, with more than adequate supply to meet demand — to make up for the lost revenue if we took marijuana away from them.
Not to mention the 800,000 cases we pump through our own criminal justice system every year thanks to marijuana prohibition. The world cannot continue to sustain this ridiculous burden for no reason whatsoever.

Sexist bigot! Do some researches on the matter before you go and devalue a culture of people. In the 1920’s arse holes like you made racist arguments for making it illegal and here you are making sexist ones.
