Morgan Freeman on marijuana: “It’s the stupidest law possible”

In a new interview with Newsweek, Morgan Freeman is asked about all the things you’d expect him to be asked about (Batman, favorite movie, working with Tom Cruise on ‘Oblivion’) but also the fact that he’s a “big proponent of the legalization of marijuana.”

“Marijuana! Heavens, oh yeah. It’s just the stupidest law possible, given history. You don’t stop people from doing what they want to do, so forget about making it unlawful. You’re just making criminals out of people who aren’t engaged in criminal activity. And we’re spending zillions of dollars trying to fight a war we can’t win! We could make zillions, just legalize it and tax it like we do liquor. It’s stupid.”

Or here’s an even better idea; how about you don’t tax it and leave people the fuck alone. Why do people always say that, as if all the marijuana in the world belongs to our shitty and corrupt government, and if they allow us to have any, it’ll be on their terms. Fuck that. Those fuckers are lucky I don’t have my own Gamera. I would totally tell him to smash all their shit and then we’d all do whatever we want.

    Morgan Freeman is an idiot, that’s why he’s an actor in Hollywood instead of a doer in the real world.

    Maybe Jesus in the white house should listen to God

    If they legalize weed then the cost would skyrocket. Nah – keep it illegal so I can afford it.

    Fuck that.

    All the grass I get is medical now, wholesaled from some fuck smart enough to get a prescription and resell it on the street for 500%

    The world is fine the way it is. Everyone just chill the fuck out and do a Goddamn rain-dance or something.

    And BTW.

    New douche up

    Way to take a statement out of context, Nutt.

    “You don’t stop people from doing what they want to do, so forget about making it unlawful.”

    And the guy famous for fucking his grand-daughter (or whatever) would be the one to listen to on this.
