Florida anti-pot leader: weed is a date rape drug and will make you gay and vulnerable to AIDS

A vast majority of Floridians, including Republicans, are in favor of medical marijuana. That means Florida’s Amendment 2 ballot initiative, which legalizes medical marijuana, is likely to pass in November.

This is alarming to the neo-Anslinger crowd, which has formed an anti-marijuana group called Drug Free Florida, with the single goal of defeating the amendment. It’s headed up by 73-year-old Carlton E Turner, who served as Ronald Reagan’s drug czar and coined the slogan “Just Say No.” Turner was an instrumental figure in the escalation of the War on Drugs, which sent millions of non-violent people to prison around the world, provided funding for terrorist groups, created widespread government corruption, incubated ruthless drug cartels, and led to the establishment of violent militarized police.

In 1986, when Turner was a big swinging dick in Washington, he stated in a Newsweek magazine article that he had visited drug treatment centers and learned that 40% of the patients had engaged in homosexual activity, concluding that their homosexuality “seems to be something that follows along from their marijuana use … my concern is, how is the biological system affected by heavy marijuana use? The public needs to be thinking about how drugs alter people’s lifestyles.”

Drug Free Florida is Turner’s last chance to inflict large-scale massive pain and suffering.

Aiding Turner is gambling tycoon Sheldon Adelson who, thanks to the millions of people who’ve blown their paychecks at his casinos, is one of the richest men in the world. Adelson contributed $2.5 million to the organization.

With that much ill-gotten gain in its coffers, Drug Free Florida has apparently decided to drop the anti-drug crusading mission and become a comedy website instead. Take a look at their latest parody ad: pot cookies are a date rape drug.

If Adelson kicks in a few more million, Drug Free Florida could give Funny or Die some real competition!
