  Two young guys appear in court after being arrested for smoking dope.
  
  The judge says, "You seem like nice young men, and I'd like to give you a second chance instead of jail time. I want you to go out this weekend and try to convince others of the evils of drug use. I'll see you back in court Monday."
  On Monday, the judge asks the first guy, "How did you do over the weekend?"
  
  "Well, your honor, I persuaded 17 people to give up drugs forever."
  
  "Seventeen people? That's wonderful. How did you do it? "
  
  "I used a diagram, your honor. I drew two circles like this: O o. Then I told them that the big circle is your brain before drugs and the small circle is your brain
  after drugs."
  
  "That's admirable," says the judge. Then he turns to the second guy. "And how did you do?"
  
  "Well, your honor, I persuaded 156 people to give up drugs forever."
  
  "Wow!" says the judge. "156 people! How did you manage to do that?"
  
  "Well, I used a similar diagram," the guy says. "I drew two circles like this: o O. Then I pointed to the little circle and said, 'This is your ass hole before prison... .'"

  No one will deny that the world is degenerating into chaos on every front. In the 15th century, slaves were captured and shipped from Africa to work the tobacco plantations. It was then fashionable to smoke cigars, cigarettes, chew tobacco and sniff snuff. That plant brought untold wealth to its plantation owners and processors throughout the world. These days, hardly would one find a tobacco smoking pipe anywhere. The effects of dealing tobacco were relatively milder.
  
  Now, the world has graduated into higher and more potent drugs that is hugely creating psychiatric problems everywhere, and producing mental disabilities. It is unthinkable that nations and states in America and elsewhere are legalizing marijuana, cannabis, cocaine, oxyconton and those mind-altering drugs.
  
  The world is certainly heading towards our own created doomsday!!!!

  Nana wants everyone to enjoy the thousands of benefits from smoking the weed. He will therefore legalise marijuana if he is voted into power. drug barons will also face less harassment in the business.

  To decriminalise cocaine and heroine? Oh, Obasanjo too. I can understand and be a little sympathetic if the drug in question is "wee" and not the harder drugs.
