Here’s two things we know for a  fact about Morgan Freeman

1. He crossed the red sea with Moses
2. He loves his marijuana

Well, only one of those is true.

“They used to say, ‘You smoke that stuff, boy, you get hooked!’ ” Freeman said with a laugh. “My first wife got me into it many years ago. How do I take it? However it comes! I’ll eat it, drink it, smoke it, snort it!”

Woah there, Morgan. Slow down.  Freeman is a staunch pro-legalization advocate and feels the benefits of the drugs should be considered.

“I have fibromyalgia pain in this arm, and the only thing that offers any relief is marijuana,” he continued. “They’re talking about kids who have grand mal seizures, and they’ve discovered that marijuana eases that down to where these children can have a life. That right there, to me, says, ‘Legalize it across the board!’ “

Imagine our Nigeria lawmakers having this debate. Don’t lie, you laughed.
