Mayor Bloomberg Calls Medical Marijuana a Hoax
The Nanny State only likes science that encourages control over others
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has added another item to his list of substances he would like no one to enjoy, ever: marijuana. Bloomberg made his case against medical and recreational pot this morning on the John Gambling radio show:
"Yeah, right, medical, come on," said Bloomberg. "There's no medical. This is one of the great hoaxes of all times."
The mayor has admitted to smoking weed in the past, and enjoying it, but that was a long time ago.
