Wisdom From-Sean Hannity: I can drink two beers and not feel anything, so pot is more dangerous

Sean Hannity: I can drink two beers and not feel anything, so pot is more dangerous

“Alright, I can drink a beer or two and I don’t really feel anything, right?” Hannity said. “But you can’t smoke a joint and not feel something.”

...........................................

Polis pointed out that alcohol was associated with deaths from overdoses and accidents, while the same wasn’t true for cannabis.

“You didn’t answer my question,” Hannity responded. “I said you can drink a beer and you cannot get high. If you smoke pot, you will get high.”

“Look, you can use anything in moderation or anything in excess,” Polis said.

“But if you smoke any marijuana, you’re going to get high,” Hannity shot back.

If I drank two full beers I'd be fully intoxicated. Drunk. Shit faced, three sheets to the wind, plastered, loaded, blotto.

Just reading the label makes me feel like I need to pee.

The last beer I drank was the night President Obama was reelected.

4. "If you touch marijuana, you will get high! If you THINK about marijuana, you will get high!

And then you know, there's the whole matter of contact highs.

If marijuana exists, you will get high!"

5. The level of ignorance, hatefulness, and selfishness that Hannity and his ilk have buried

our collective consciousness under makes me wonder if it's ever going to be possible for us to recover any semblance of sanity and humanity.

Sanity is a "codeword" for SOCIALISM.

They are going to lead as much as they can down the tubes as far as they can before it will get any better.

11. I sometimes get the feeling we'll all be talking and texting in duckspeak before that happens.

"Ultimately it was hoped to make articulate speech issue from the larynx without involving the higher brain centres at all. This aim was frankly admitted in the Newspeak word duckspeak […]. Like various words in the B vocabulary, duckspeak was ambivalent in meaning. Provided that the opinions which were quacked out were orthodox ones, it implied nothing but praise, and when the Times referred to one of the orators of the Party as a doubleplusgood duckspeaker it was paying a warm and valued compliment." 1984

(as many don't) that NOT 'feeling anything' after drinking amounts suggests alcoholism.

15. I like to smoke just a little bit. I don't like being completely stoned.

I can drink two beers or twenty beers. The results will be different.

I can have a single hit off a pipe or eleven bong loads. Again, the results will be different.

Apparently this concept is too complex for some people.
