The Military Times published a piece yesterday in their “Observation Post” section that celebrates the legalization of marijuana in New York.

On Wednesday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo acknowledged the plant’s sanative advantages by signing legislation legalizing marijuana’s recreational use among the state’s adult population.

Cannabis fans rejoiced, ushering forth a celebratory cloud over the Big Apple by way of Js, pens, chillums, dab rigs, bubblers and the ones they call Kim Bong Ill, Dank Sinatra and J.R.R. Token.

But should we really be reveling in another state’s legalization of OG Kush, Purple Urkle and Laughing Buddha? (Yes.)

I hope that the military readership understands that weed is still considered a schedule one narcotic according to the federal government. As a matter of fact the White House recently kicked a bunch of weed heads to the curb after they told them to be honest on their applications for security clearances.

The other concerning aspect of this article is the fact that the author decided to take a swipe at a conservative TV host in the process. Greg Kelly, formerly of Fox News, and and now a host of Greg Kelly Reports on Newsmax tweeted out a warning against smoking pot a few days ago.

SMOKING WEED (aka GRASS) is NOT a good idea. I’ve tried it (back in the day) and it was WORSE than anything that happened to HUNTER BIDEN. I “toked up” with some buddies in Kentucky and woke up 4 days later in Nairobi, Kenya. With no idea what happened. DON’T DO DRUGS.

I had hoped they learned a lesson from the overwhelming smackdown they received for going after Tucker Carlson. I guess not.

The author takes a swipe at Kelly and says that “Kenya does have a few of the same letters as Kentucky.” And further remarks that “everyone else just eats pizza and passes out” instead of ending up in another country.

Maybe the Military Times should avoid celebrating  drug legalization, and smacking conservative pundits altogether. Its not a good look.
