| Howie Carr on the Hempfest |
| 2001-09-16 |
Really, isn't it embarrassing to watch the way so many of the Beautiful People from Massachusetts have conducted themselves since Tuesday? When exactly did we corner the market on horse's asses? What about the thousands of marijuana-addled burnouts at yesterday's ``HempFest'' on the Common? Forget the security angle - maybe history will show that we are overreacting, that there was no real and present danger of a biological or nuclear strike from these savages. But what about some simple common decency? The bodies of most of the victims haven't even been recovered, and these latter-day hippies are partying, getting stoned in public. Have they at long last no sense of shame? |
