Well, what it really comes down to, marijuana may be seen by a lot of people as harmless in comparison to a lot of other substances that normally get abused, but it's still a drug that is illegal.

It has nothing to do with tyranny or the whole 'well, this shouldn't happen cause they've done it too'. I agree with LoA, access to it is really rather simple and more than a fair share of people I know also do it. Should it be sidestepped because of that? No, cause it's a lame reason. And it probably is safe to assume that these same people that use it themselves are busting Phelps for it.

It's not tyranny, it's hypocrisy.
