So why is Michael Phelps taking such a beating for the photo that shows him hitting a bong?
If I had the time and subsequent desire, I would poll 100 people to find out how many have tried marijuana in their youth, and I would be willing to bet the computer I’m using over half would say they have at some point in their lives. I did when I was 19, and I got so sick you couldn’t lift my head out of the trash can with an overhead crane. I’m now 29, and haven’t even thought of touching it since. I don’t condone the usage of marijuana, but I understand that most college-aged kids are going to try it. That’s just the way it is.
