Well, I never got anything out of marijuana, so I am not toking.

This day is exactly a month away now, and I have often wonder why this date was chosen as a day to honor pot usage. Once heard that it has to do with it having been Hitler's birthday but can't see where that connection would be valid.

Because some young California hippies gathered together to smoke pot at that hour, and later on that day, says this article. It also says people smoked pot to challenge systemic problems caused by the Establishment. I don't think so. People smoked marijuana because it was part of the movement to be liberated from conventional consciousness and feel less-inhibited, looser, more-relaxed and freer and more sociable and to break down social and mental walls. And it actually works for this purpose, whereas whether it worked as a protest is unclear.
But it would be true to say that "the system" helps cause, in various ways, our original condition as uptight, unsociable, inhibited, less conscious beyond conventions and mental illusions, etc. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/...galization

Only difference was that most of the married women didn’t return to the kitchen and most likely never will.

Even I am forced to admit that it is time to legalize marijuana for all purposes in all 50 states - and not only that, but to move diacetylmorphine (heroin) from Schedule I to Schedule II under the Controlled Substances Act, so that terminally ill patients can die with some measure of dignity.
"These, and many other matters which might be noticed, add a volume of unofficial declarations to the mass of organic utterances that this is a Christian nation" - Justice David Brewer, Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 1892
