is that a dollar sign on your name?
as for your question, i suppose you have to ask the people who think that
another thing you might do is, ask yourself ...are you ,by your deeds,and by your livity, reinforcing those misconceptions or does your livity prove them wrong?
i pray it is the latter

I must amit that I have been aproached by alot of young people here in my town in montana who no not anything of rasta, but assume that because of my dreads that I smoke weed. I have recently begun to let them no that they should be who they are and how God has created them and just be themselves. They need not try to be "cool" and that whatever choices they make as life goes on should be there own, not what someone else has portrayed unto them to be. As far as the smoking of herb goes, I dont reply one way or another so that I can remain in truth when I do speak. It is to bad that people will make that assumtion, but we can thank the media and babylon for that.
peace
