Bang on.
Meanwhile, the shiny pony Justin Trudeau admits to smoking pot but gets completely forgiven by the masses and mainstream media. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to decriminalizing pot, but as it stands now, smoking crack and pot are both inditable, and all politicians should be expected to respect the law and be treated the same if they don't, especially those hoping to become PM.

What a person chooses to do on their personal time is their personal choice. If they act like an @$$, then they have to pay the consequences. But as long as dude did not spend cashola from the public coffers or perform any public duty in an altered state, then it be none of anyones' business.

The papparazzi approach to newcasting is unpalatable particularly when foreign correspondents are risking life and limb to bring real news to the world.
