^ his part starts at about 46:20 or so. Cant get a timestamp link on my phone for some reason.

A mans comments at a public hearing about a proposed medical marijuana dispensary on Newbury Street have shocked people on both sides of the issue.

During a hearing for the Zoning Board of Appeals, Back Bay resident Oliver Curme stepped to the microphone to speak out against the proposal. His reasons, however, stunned many in attendance.

All my friends and I are against this because itll bring undesirable elements into the neighborhood, Curme told the room. Just so you know what I mean, there are army vets with PTSD. We dont want them in our neighborhood. Just give me a break. They can get over it.

Curmes comments did not stop there.

The second thing is people with wheelchairs, M.S. or whatever, Curme said, making a gesture with his hand. Well the third one is women with breast cancer. They all have that cadaver look and they wear those ridiculous turbans. Newbury Street is a high-end shopping district. We dont want people like that scaring off our clientele.

If it is satire, then that's actually hilarious.

Almost 2018 and we're still arguing over people's right to ingest a plant.

Should we be in the business of taking random people to task now for their political opinions?

It's 2017, people are more irresponsible than any time in history.
