But as more celebrities get busted, and it becomes obvious that Marijuana is not having a gross negative impact on their lives, the celebrity worshipers will start to think, "Hey, maybe pot isn't as bad as D.A.R.E. told me it was."

As it becomes more accepted more celebrities are going to start owning up and stop apologizing for it. Maybe one day someone as respected as Michael Phelps will say, "Yea, I smoke pot...and I'm still one of the top athletes ever to walk on planet earth...so it must not be that bad." And people will listen to him, because he's a celebrity. (Or was for that one summer, )

Parents, teachers, politicians, police officers, firefighters and the like don't have much of an affect as role models for American children and adults.....but celebrities sure do..

Except the people who vote in MJ legislation aren't looking up to celebrities.

Its not about votes, its about public perception. If you can begin to unravel the 70 years of financially driven anti-MJ propaganda and shift public perception then the votes and legislation will happen. That shift in mentality/perception has not happened yet, but the ball appears to be rolling.

Problem now is shes not a normal kid. between all the fame and fortune there ar eother things to deal with your average kid doesnt. Plus theyre under the microscope for everything. I am sure they want to beat the ass of whoever made that tape and released it, or its just a ploy to keep her relevant. Stiff competition fighting for space in the tabloids now.

Yeah, the normal kid can't afford cocaine by the truckload.

Thats the point, she has much easier access to a lot of the "recreational" stuff that your average 18 yr old may not be able to afford.

But if it bumps the kardashians off the front page for a while I guess its not a bad thing

Is it bad to want to look up and see Miley smoking a joint while she rides me and Kim Kardashian sits over my face and licks Miley's breasticles??

If it is I suppose I am a bad man...

[t-homo]

No such thing as bad PR.
