rant
The problem with this rant is just that - it's a rant. There is only one opinion: Yours.
Rants work far better on topics that are random, or spur of the moment. But when on touchy and often controversial subjects, it's hard to do it without seeming childish and ignorant. Because the fact is - there are always upsides as well as downsides.
I'm not going to argue with the rant because that would be hypocritical to what I just said above. I may be less knowledgeable about the subject than you, for instance. What I will say is that although you delivered some interesting points, you basically coated them in a fine layer of crap because of how poorly they were presented; with a highly annoying voice, and very little in terms of animation and artistry.
As I said, I will leave the drug argument to the infinite amount of drug forums and discussions found outside of NG. I like rants that are quirky, or random, such as the ones made by Peter Griffin in "You know what really grinds my gears?". There it's not something touchy and infinitely debated like drugs or politics: It's "Why hasn't someone come up with a new Priest and a Rabbi joke in forever?"
