We’re making this film because we’re amazed by how many people who love guns also support the War on Drugs, and how many people who love drugs support the War on Guns. They need to know the two wars fuel each other. And most pro-pot people are also into progressive socialism. It doesn’t make sense. If you’re into one freedom, you really should be into ALL freedoms.
For instance, Woody Harrelson is a well-known pot advocate. I agree with Harrelson on the pot issue. But he’s an inveterate Obama licking socialist progressive.
How’s this for justifying lunacy?:
Salon.com: At least at this point, it appears that Obama is pushing onward with the war in Afghanistan. Is he just constrained by geopolitics? Is he simply not free to say, “Look, we’re not going to do this anymore”?
Harrelson: I think there’s a lot of persuasive and powerful people around Obama. For a president to make his own decisions, I think that’s a rarity. Even someone who we think of as our guy — this is a guy with integrity, a guy who cares, for the first time in a long time — in the Oval Office, even with him we don’t really know who’s pulling the strings. I think of every president as being a marionette. Whether he’s any different, I don’t know. Certainly his military advisers all want him to prosecute this war to the end, just as they did in Vietnam with LBJ.
It’s just too depressing, I think we’re going to have to hit the streets. Obama has the chance of becoming JFK or LBJ. I think JFK was one of our last great presidents, although I thought Carter was pretty great too…..
Which just goes to prove my thesis….the Republicans better quit trying to legislate against what people smoke and who they bed, or we’re going to have a permanent majority of people who want to rob from the disarmed producers to support the insolent and indolent parasites.
Not that repubs don’t do that, but lately the dems have been taking it to vast new levels. And while dems don’t care what kind of freaky mammal sex you have, they certainly want to control or eliminate every tiny little other nuance in the world. Coal, oil, commerce, guns, hunting, water, health care, salt, or body fat index and ironically, weed.
Why should the government protect us from ourselves?
If you think they should, then no one should have guns, right? (Except of course, the government, because the government is an all-knowing and perfect loving-yet-stern parent to guide us in our every decision!)
Another issue: PROHIBITION DOES NOT WORK. The War on Drugs has been unwinnable since the 1930s. It only fuels government waste, bolsters government intrusion, and puts good people in prison. It also fuels the War on Guns. Look how Holder tried to reinstate the Assault Weapon Ban to help the War on Drugs.
Prohibition doesn’t make people quit smoking pot anymore than a total gun ban would make a patriot hang his head in shame and voluntarily hand in all his hardware to the federal smelter.

Posted some linky love on my blog. Why? cause I ain’t done it for awhile, and I like the idea your running with on guns and weed.
I will be doing some info tabling at the Rutland county fair in early September, And expect to use up the rest of the Right Arm CD’s you sent me. So far I gave some out at a couple of guns shows to people who enjoyed what the boom box was playing.
Keep it up the good fight. You make me work harder at it myself.
Peace!

Thank you sir for the link, and for giving out the CDs.
“Rhetorically Armed and Dangerous to Tyranny”…love it!

Woody is a typical libtard. All standards they set go out the window when their guy is in office. Kinda like all the Bush bashers that were silent when Clinton was dropping bombs on Yugoslavia, Iraq, Sudan….
Thankfully libertarians are around to call bs out during any administration.
Woody is a typical libtard. All of their standards go out the window when their guy is in office. My, oh, my…how upset Woody would’ve been had someone made those same comments about Bush.
Kinda like all the Bush bashers that were silent during the Clinton years when all his bombs were droppin’.
Three cheers for the libertarians who take a stand against this shit regardless of whom holds office.
Trailer looks good, MWD.
How ironic that the guy who played the part of Mickey Knox would become a cog in the media machine putting another president on a pedestal. “although I thought Carter was pretty great too…..” Haha!
Looks like an awesome project! Can’t wait to see it!

Well, maybe i’m the odd one out, but I don’t have a single Gun loving friend that supports the war on Drugs, in fact being from TN, most of the country boys I knew, growing up had a nice Garden of Weed in thier yards.
Who can blame them ?, they made more money growing weed than they did with Shine.
