"I'm just tired of it being treated like it's the most important thing you could possibly ask the President about."
If you're too jaded to care about millions of Americans dying for no reason, the destruction of the black community, the spread of AIDS and hepatitis, and our crumbling infrastructure, all direct consequences of prohibition, then that says a lot more about you than it does about those who would challenge Obama on the issue.
The reason people treat it like the most important issue facing society is because basically it is.
Thank you.
If people were being executed for jaywalking, would that be important enough to be persistent in asking? What if only a few people were getting executed? How do you feel about the Mayor of NYC proposing banning certain sizes of soda pop? These questions are related.
No it wasn't, in any way, shape or form. I support legalisation, I'm just tired of it being treated like it's the most important thing you could possibly ask the President about.
If you think the "jailbait" scandal defined reddit at any point
Defined for who? It was on national television. I assure you that a lot of non-tech savvy people will have had their first exposure to Reddit as a result of that report.
