Did you even read the guy's explanation?
yes, i read the guy's explanation. you know, the explanation that was given after.

He was making the point that a dispensary's clients are not drug dealers and hoodlums but people in real need that no normal person would be against.
no real person, eh? clearly you're ignorant about all the politicians and bureaucrats who still throw up roadblocks between vets (and the sick) and medical marijuana. my sweet summer child, there are still plenty who are against any type of legalization or decriminalization of marijuana. like the nation's top attorney. remember, "good people don't smoke marijuana."

You don't read well.

normal, real, whatever. are you going to play a game of "no true scotsman" by claiming the nation's top attorney isn't a so-called normal person? or is sessions being satirical when he says, "good people don't smoke marijuana"?

you seem to live in a fairy world where people like curme don't exist.
Lol at this guy saying someone else is out of touch with reality. It's only in your own "fairy world" where anything is as black/white good/evil as you seem to see things... You just keep on connecting those dots, I'm sure all your theories will come together eventually.

I am so confused right now.... is it a question of whether or not it was reasonable to believe that guy was speaking in earnest? Given some of the vileness that is honestly believed, I had no problem thinking that wasn't satirical. I'm glad it was, but there is a lot worse stuff spewed everyday that isn't satirical. Unfortunately.

I think it's reasonable to believe either way or the other about the guy, given the zero context of the posted video - but my own response to the pitchforks immediately coming out was to look for more context before coming to my own conclusion. I've read a bunch of message board discussions of this little viral moment this week, and there are always posters arguing both sides, but those with pitchforks always argue the loudest. I just think his more detailed comments after the fact made a lot of sense: "people who oppose a medical marijuana facility have to realize those are the people who will be hurt."

I will also note that there is not much personal info online about Oliver Curme (most has to do with his venture capital/investing career) but a big part of what's out there goes pretty quickly down a rabbit hole. The guy is a sort of bogeyman for JFK assassination nuts, as he bought a huge trove of JFK documents in the Mary Ferrell Foundation, with motives that are suspect to the community of JFK "researchers". :tinfoil:
