    We sure do need more legal recreational drugs, don't we?

    USG (Undergraduate Student Government) at Ohio State University voted to give $1,000 to Students for Sensible Drug Safety to cover security and safety costs at their annual Hempfest, which "is meant to educate the public on current drug policies and issues."

    To draw suck the students in, they have at least 50 musical groups. It's a First Amendment Rights issue said their leader. The group also sponsors a bake sale (brownies perhaps?).

    I wonder if a Christian group could get $1,000 from USG, invite bands, set up displays on aborted babies, educate the students about the value of abstinence, pass out literature on legislation, recruit for missions organizations and say it's a First Amendment issue (it is actually, but the left really howls about "separation," although that's not in the Constitution or Bill of Rights). I'm not saying they don't--it's possible they do that at Urbana, which draws about 20,000 students interested in missions, and need the crowd control.

    And please. Don't give me that line about the money being needed for security not the event itself. In the past, they had to pay for that too out of the money they raised to support legalization. (What? Druggies and rock bands are rowdy?) If you are an alcoholic, and you've spent half your month's paycheck on your habit, and you come to me for money to buy food because you're hungry and broke and the end of the month, am I buying your food or your alcohol at the beginning of the month?
