Hillary says she NEVER smoked pot.

Are we going to have to go through this shit again. Her school chums says she ALWAYS wanted to smoke weed. Is she going to stand in our way in 2016. Do we have to go state by state with the fear of Feds coming in and taking it all away. I'm so sick of alcohol being praised and weed being laughed at and considered a health risk. Such bullshit.
