So, my heroes do drugs..




I've noticed that everyone that I admire, that I look up to, did or still does drugs.

~John Lennon (did drugs)

~Janis Joplin (cause of death=drug overdose)

~Paul McCartney (admitted taking LSD)

~Jim Morrison (cause of death=heart attack from drug overdose)

~Jimi Hendrix (cause of death=drug overdose)

~Timothy Leary (encouraged teenagers to drop out; did drugs)

This may bother anyone else, but to me it doesn't make a difference.

They were and still are amazing people who I adore.

To most others these people are a bad influence. But I can't see why. I don't understand how people could look down on them because they did drugs. But this is just me.

Look at the music flowing from these beautiful people. Jimi, the best guitarist who ever lived, Jim Morrison, Americas best poet, John and Paul, the best songwriting duo in history.

Maybe todays "artists" could learn something from these individuals.

So just when you think that anyone who does drugs is a terrible person

Look at these people, you preachy bastards,

And I dare you to tell me that these artists were terrible people.



Peace.
