Stoned is a pretty common word used in North America to say that a person is riding high from Ganja. I know that some people don't like to use that word, but it is commonly used by many. And most of the people that use it don't mean any offence by it, it is just a word to describe the way they feel when they are riding high, like when people say that they are red, high or whatever term.
So I really don't think lets_get_stoned meant any offence by it, he probably just likes to get stoned. And I don't think he meant any offence by saying Rastafarianism. He obviously doesn't know a lot about RasTafarI, as indicated by his question.
I and I shouldn't be so quick to snap at people. It could have been explained to the bredren why I and I don't say "stoned" and why I and I don't deal with "isms".
If someone does come with wicked intentions, then they will reveal themself soon enough, and then the Fire can be blazed. It is the people that know what is going on, and bring disrespect that should be burned, not the people that just don't know. Let a person show who they are before we decide how to react to them.

RasTafarI
