Our leaders don’t need to be members of Mensa to govern well, but they shouldn’t require special education either. In many state Legislatures (as in Congress), we find a disturbing number who do. That we trust them to ponder society’s biggest decisions is evidence that we are either just as dense or way too apathetic.

Bill would outlaw sale of marijuana-flavored candy to minors
The Associated Press - ATLANTA
Georgia lawmakers are trying to weed out businesses that sell candy that’s flavored like marijuana to minors.

A measure introduced Friday would ban retailers from selling lollipops, gumdrops or other candy flavored to taste like the drug.

The legislation is aimed at businesses that sell products with drug-inspired names such as “Kronic Kandy” and “Pot Suckers,” said state Rep. Judy Manning, R-Marietta.

“I think it’s ridiculous,” she said. “Why would you give somebody something to eat that’s illegal?”

Needle across record….
Now, apparently, the mere suggestion of marijuana is illegal - at least in Judy’s head.
Someone please cut this person’s hotline to Homeland Security before she sees a child with an Atomic Fireball.
