[docmercer--banned]

John Lennon was dismissed as a Communist threat to the US only because he was always stoned, secret FBI papers revealed yesterday.

 

[D2bets]

Yes, being stoned is a good thing.

I'm sure half of North Korea would give their left gonad for a hash brownie right now, or any brownie for that matter.

Near the end of the Beatles a career and sometime thereafter John and Yoko had a pretty good heroin habit going. I'm pretty sure pot is not what they were talking about.

either way, i dont see how drug abuse and communism are mutually exclusive.

I think the point was that he may have had communist views, but he was too stoned to be considered a threat to national security. He was too busy shopping for Doritos to harm anyone.

I'm sure Lennon felt that capitalism is intrinsically wicked and must be replaced by a form of economy in which collective solidarity takes precedence over predatory individualism. Ring a bell commies?

 

[JudgeWapner]

Yes, commrade.It does.
