I've seen Daddy say no to Messy Bonnie Raitt many times. And her PCP is LEGENDARY. Straight from the veterinarian, uncut.
I have a lot of respect for what Bobby has to say about drugs from a personal standpoint.
But I also think there are some other ways that individuals live the drugs they choose to use.
I know a handful of people who take what are called 'recreational' drugs as a form of self-medication, who otherwise might be on some awful psychiatric psychotropic medication. Having your appetite overstimulated by pot is a lot less detrimental side-effect for a bi-polar person than getting a non-reversable case of tardic dyskenesia (it sounds dreadful just to pronounce the name of this malady) from clonapin. Also, call me a mystical if you want, but I think some forms of intoxicants are far more unknown in their real abilities to provide opportunities for insight and certain benefits from non-normal consciousness than most authorities would ever let be said is so. Use of intoxicants for that purpose is not the same as a compulsive addictive type of use of course. And in short, however unsmart it may be to say so here, use of any regulated intoxicant comes with some responsibilities -one, namely, is to not get in trouble with legal restrictions. I think mostly at this time in our society, here in the US, drugs are one of the key ways that are used by the State to criminalize people. On that point BG has just fallen prey to a totally routine operation of the legal system. The courts in lower Manhattan are a virtual assemblyline for criminalizing drug users and vendors. Hundreds, if not thousands, are indicted every week. So I don't really think the problem in essence is Ms. O'Dowd's personality at all. The problem is an anti-society that can't deal with the, actually, normal appetites of millions of its citizens.
Daddy, are you sure there was only that C Whiz incident? Only? Don't I frequently see you majorly getting off on a certain drug called, uh, 'Junior'?
