Phil Anselmo Wants Legalization With Common Sense

(Rock News Desk) Phil Anselmo is a staunch supporter of legalizing cannabis, but he warns pot's not for everyone, and those who partake need to take responsibility for their actions.

And the former Pantera frontman says a life-threatening moment from his teenage years illustrates his point. He tells MetalSucks: "I'm all for legalising, but it's up to individuals to decide whether it's for them or not. If it f**ks with a person's ability to do their job or hold them back in the fight to become a better person, they need the common-sense to know weed isn't for them

"I'll never forget a time when I was fifteen years old � my friend and I were both high and he was driving, cruising at about 50mph. There was a red light directly ahead with cars stopped four-deep. He was baked; his mind was drifting and there was no way in hell he was going to stop. I grabbed him and shook him, he slammed on the brakes, and it's amazing we didn't drive straight into the cars in front or fly through the windshield." more on this story
