Would you like to sign a Petition?
I don’t know how to say this: I would feel more comfortable signing a Ballot Petition for decriminalizing Marijuana if the signature-gatherer did not fit the stereotype of a person gathering signatures for that Cause. Maybe a few some gun-toting anti-tax warriors aren’t such a bad thing after all. (Rush — the Ayn Rand loving band — fans are supposed to be in a perpetual haze, after all.)
I also oppose the ballot measure to open Primaries. The movement of a political party and the people it throws up should be decided by people who connect with that political party. Yes, it’s difficult to proclaim yourself a member of Party X, but just because you’re a registered member of Party X does not mean you are hobnobbing with the worst of Party X, or dancing with the Skull And Bones units that are swaying the partys to the… what the hell am I saying?
