:Well, the point is that the image is a gag. It's meant to illustrate the absurdity of putting pot into vending machines as if it were akin to soda or candy. [[User:Jinxmchue|Jinx McHue]] 15:57, 5 October 2009 (EDT)

I agree, the image makes one point of view look obviously "appropriate." Clearly not the way to present such a serious issue, this is about people's health, and a conflicts of the law. Doesn't it hurt the integrity of the information if one side is given such clear preference? Why not show an actual marijuana vending machine, and leave Bob Marley's association with Rastafarianism for Bob's Conservipedia page? Or skip the vending machine all together. Here's some pictures of medical marijuana patients who get their grass from the federal government. Or maybe just a pot leaf and cross? Or better yet, pot leaf, cross and question mark! Here are some images that relate a bit more.
