MTP this morning....UGH!!! Five minutes and I had to turn it off. [View all]
I just caught their round table discussion of marijuana legalization. The usual suspects of DC insiders talked about how legalization would affect their comfortable upper class lifestyle and how they might have difficulty explaining marijuana is bad to their kids. This was the sole focus of their discussion. Nothing about national/international narco trafficking and terrorism, effects on local economies of added tax revenue. A passing mention of reduced crime which was summarily dismissed, and no mention what so ever of the devastating impact on minorities civil rights being violated and the establishment of criminal records.
The important thing was they might have to have an uncomfortable conservation with their teenagers. Of course their kids will never have to go through the meat grinder of the criminal justice system as some kid from Brooklyn found to have a joint in his pocket.
MTP cannot die soon enough. Don't bother trying to find a replacement for Gregory. Just put that show out of it's misery and cancel it. Run cartoons instead.
