| When
Jesus, Abraham Lincoln, and lil’ Georgie W. Bush typed
up the Constitution of the United States of America on their
low-tech word processor back in those olden time days of yore,
1492 -- not soon after Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean
blue to discover the world wasn’t flat but kinda bumpy
in certain spots -- there were no laws to speak of (hence
the Constitution of America), let alone anti-marijuana laws.
This simple, proven FACT explains the oft-quoted, frequently
debated line in the aforementioned Holy American Constitution
of America, paragraph thirteen:
“Smoke ‘em if ya’ got ‘em.”
To further explain this important entry in the laws that have
ruled our American Kingdom for lo these 500-and-some odd years
(no one has an exact timeframe), in those simpler, ye olden
times, even public officials and famed generals toked up after
a good meal or Civil War battle or slave sale or what have
you. Weed wasn’t just for lay-about hippie types like
it is today, but enjoyed by all. It was the thing to do, which
is why this famous line was included in our oft imitated,
never equaled Constitution. Ironic that now it’s such
a cause for debate. Back then it, to quote our fifth president
Benjamin Franklin, “… wun’t no thing but
a chicken wing.”
