Bootheels & Bowie Knives

My name is Andy. I am a man of proper wit and diverse inclinations, such as cinema, literature, history, dirty sex, and gratuitous violence.


 Highlights of Nixon comments on marijuana: 
 Jews and marijuana: “I see another thing in the news summary this morning about it. That’s a funny thing, every one of the bastards that are out for legalizing marijuana is Jewish. What the Christ is the matter with the Jews, Bob, what is the matter with them? I suppose it’s because most of them are psychiatrists …” 
 Marijuana and the culture wars: “You see, homosexuality, dope, immorality in general. These are the enemies of strong societies. That’s why the Communists and the left-wingers are pushing the stuff, they’re trying to destroy us.” 
 Marijuana compared to alcohol: marijuana consumers smoke “to get high” while “a person drinks to have fun.”  Nixon also saw marijuana leading to loss of motivation and discipline but claimed: “At least with liquor I don’t lose motivation.” 
 Marijuana and political dissent:  “… radical demonstrators that were here … two weeks ago … They’re all on drugs, virtually all.” 
Drug education: “Enforce the law, you’ve got to scare them.”
