The misogynistic, homophobic, racist, slave-owning, religiously indoctrinated, infant genital-mutilating, witch-hunting ancestors who predate decades of research performed in the fields of physiology, sociology, psychology, anthropology, pharmacology, and criminology?
I don't even feel this warrants a response. There are many laws today that are absolutely ridiculous. We live in a world where it's still illegal, and if legal shameful in most places for a woman to bare her breasts because it's "obscene" yet perfectly legal and normalized for a man to do the same.
Why was marijuana illegal in the first place? Not because it was deemed dangerous but because Mexicans used it.
Anyways I agree this is a hockey forum and I don't intend to continue this topic.
