Sir Elton John puts forward his objection on THIS rule

Elton John just criticized one of the country’s laws.

The legendary singer, after being named as Icon of the Year by Time Magazine, stated how he is against the idea of marijuana being legal, explaining how its consumption impairs cognitive thinking and is rather “addictive.”

“I maintain that it’s addictive. It leads to other drugs,” he told the outlet, adding, “And when you’re stoned — and I’ve been stoned — you don’t think normally. Legalizing marijuana in America and Canada is one of the greatest mistakes of all time.”

“You make terrible decisions on drugs,” Sir Elton explained.

Looking back at his days of addiction and struggles with substance abuse, the British pianist continued, “I wanted love so badly, I’d just take hostages. I’d see someone I liked and spend three or four months together, and then they would resent me because they had nothing in their life apart from me.”

“It really upsets me, thinking back on how many people I probably hurt,” he mentioned.

For Sir Elton John, who is recently struggling with eyesight problems due to an infection, used to be addicted to having cocaine after he was introduced to the substance by former lover and manager, John Reid.

However, on July 29, 1990, the Can You Feel The Love Tonight hitmaker got into Chicago’s Parkside Lutheran Hospital and has remained sober ever since.
