Drink Wine? Smoke weed? you decide

Pop singer Kenny Loggins calls marijuana prohibition an "absurd law" and says, "The repression of marijuana is taking a long time to be overthrown." That's why he's backing California's Regulate Marijuana Like Wine initiative that hopes to be on the ballot in 2012.

"It's been a long time coming," Loggins adds. "We've been talking about this for 60 years now. Things got turned around backwards. We've been taught a lot of fear about marijuana that we do need to take on into the next generation. We can regulate marijuana and actually make it a source of revenue for the state and eventually for the nation."



Loggins has had numerous Top 10 hits over the years, starting with "You're Mama Don't Dance" (No. 4, 1973) with Loggins & Messina. His solo hit include "This Is It" (No, 11, 1980), "Footloose" (No. 1, 1984) and "Danger Zone" (No. 2, 1986).
