Right-wing political commentator Bill O’Reilly on Thursday’s show highlighted the Marijuana Policy Project’s “Top 50 Most Influential Marijuana Users” list. But — being, after all, Bill O’Reilly — he didn’t leave it at that. He then started on a rant, joined by his vacuous co-hosts, about the supposed evils and deadly health risks associated with using cannabis.

“Apparently, these folks didn’t quite get the message,” wrote Morgan Fox of MPP . “O’Reilly seems to think that MPP just wants everyone to use marijuana, and that the organization ‘devotes its life to trying to convince you to get stoned and inebriated.’

“What he fails to understand, and what many supporters of prohibition refuse to believe, is that marijuana reform is not about getting high,” Fox wrote. “It is about changing our obviously failed policies that put non-violent adults in jail while making it easier for young people to obtain.”

Fox pointed out that O’Reilly and his equally clueless co-hosts didn’t understand the message behind the list, which is that these influential cannabis users might not be where they are today, if they had been jailed for using marijuana.
