Sarah Palin Thinks Cops Should Just Let You Smoke Pot, But Doesn’t Support Legalization

Sarah Palin Thinks Cops Should Just Let You Smoke Pot, But Doesn’t Support Legalization

Sarah Palin was on FOX Business News with Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) when she let fly that while she doesn’t support full legalization of Marijuana she thinks you should pretty much be allowed to do whatever you want in your own home, including having a joint if you damn well feel like it.

“If somebody’s gonna smoke a joint in their house and not do anybody else any harm, then perhaps there are other things our cops should be looking at to engage in and try to clean up some of the other problems that we have in society.”

Palin’s a self-professed former pothead, but she stops short of supporting legalization saying that she thinks it sets a bad example for kids. Her kids can’t seem to avoid being spermed on by nasty snow-hippies, so maybe she’s got a point about drug use and maturity.

Do you agree with Sarah Palin that everyone should just break the law and hope cops look the other way?

5. Is it possible that some one from the Mexican drug cartels has
lined her up to be their spokesperson? Just think of the money she can make. That will put her in the White House, for sure!!!

Sarcasm, of course.

6. I'll be damned!! Palin is against criminalizing the use of pot?

First time I agree with the woman.

BTW, the caption in the second pic is quite sexist.

7. I hate that she agrees with me on something!
however, I'm sure she just said it because it was the politically correct answer at the time of her utterance.

<Do you agree with Sarah Palin that everyone should just break the law and hope cops look the other way?>

Actually, Yes..I do.

I believe that every community should pass ordinances making pot the lowest possible priority.

I think we should require 10 "spitting on the sidewalk" tickets be issued by an officer before he could bust anyone carrying...growing..or using cannabis.If he hasn't filled his quota of spitting tickets,then he would be s.o.l. on the pot bust.



I am actually amazed that she would say anything that even remotely makes sense....Look!!! Up in the air!It's a pig...a flying PIG!

it is pure luck

11. I see...
She wants a "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

Stupid woman. Let's face it, we CAN and do smoke in the privacy of our own homes, that's not the point. It's the fact that we should have to hide, it's much safer than a lot of things you can do freely in public and in some cases is actually beneficial to your health.

I'm glad she said this...let's keep it handy in the event that she wants to run for office again. Maybe the backwoods dudes in Alaska are giving her a thumbs up, but the many Christians who think pot is no different than herion will go nuts.

14. Well, keep in mind how they used to feel about teen pregnancy
before they met Sarah and family, even just a couple weeks before, and then their open armed and enthusiastic welcome of the whole clan, baby daddy and all.

People need to accept that Republicans do not even register hypocrisy. The surprise is like being shocked that the sun comes up in the morning.

16. She was pandering to the libertarian teabaggers. I looked at freeperville and they AGREE with her,
Edited on Sun Jun-20-10 11:17 AM by jenmito
like usual. They're Palin apologists. Could you imagine what they'd say if OBAMA had said that? Would they agree with HIM? They attacked him for admitting he used to smoke pot, but it's ok for Saint Sarah. :eyes:

21. What she means is white kids in the suburbs shouldn't be hassled.
I'm sure she fully supports jailing nasty brown
city people for the same behavior.

26. It's not the recreational use of pot that Sarah and most modern Repukes are afraid of
Or corporatist "Democrats" for that matter. They have all used it themselves, even the ones who claimed to "not inhale".

It's the medicinal properties of marijuana that really frighten them. And all the potential industrial uses of Mary Jane's cousin, Hemp.

And that is why they can support "decriminalization" for personal use, but never full legalization.
