Paximus wrote:Although I cannot partake anymore, and I am not one who likes alcohol much unless its a single glass of win with a nice dinner, I think it is completely ridiculous that we spend so much money fighting a war on drugs, I say this as a criminal defense attorney who has defended drunks, druggies and other down and out sorts, it is a medical issue and not a legal issue and IMO if people want to use drugs, just like if they want to drink and smoke, BOTH OF WHICH ARE DRUGS no matter how you try and spin it, that is THEIR CHOICE and the govt should keep its nose out of their business...


Prostitution and drugs should both be legal and we should spend the money we waste fighting those windmills on bringing this country's infrastructure up to modern times. Our roads, electrical grids etc, are terribly outdated and will ultimately be the downfall of this once great nation. China is so far ahead of us in this regard it is not even funny. Yes they are a bunch of commies but they have invested well in infrastructure, I know, I have been there and its night and day compared to America.

no need for PM's...i'm fairly vocal all over the interwebz for disapproval of smoking pot. i guess it was all those times i had to bail my younger brother out of jail at 3AM that kinda soured me on the whole thing.

y'all have fun, tho...no need for me to be a drag on anybody else.

Course, y'all keep fast food joints in business so it keeps me employed. Rock on.

Which is true of just about anything including alcohol, I domnt much care for people who drink and drive even though I defend them, I only do so because I know they have children at home wondering where daddy is, so I try and get them home to their loved ones so they can learn from their mistake and not do it again. Cigarette smoke in public is probably more harmful than a pothead walking down the street also as the pothead isnt giving me second hand smoke lung cancer.

The bottom line is and always will be:

ALL THINGS IN MODERATION.

I don't really give a shit about the kids wondering where Daddy is, they're better off without a drunk for a parent. Really good odds daddy has driven them around while drunk.

Oh look everyone! Pax found Mags B(itch) Spot!

Maybe next we can have a breastfeeding in public discussion........

But hey, thats just my opinion. I love to hear yours!

Seriously,I might have agreed with you BEFORE I started working with the general public, one on one, 45 hours a week for the last three years. The people I knew previously that smoked pot only did so very rarely, and they were older.

The 16-30 year old pot smokers are all burnouts denying reality. Dumber than a bag of hair. Just enough brain cells left, for the time being, to hold down a min wage job so they can afford their doobage.

Wastes of oxygen.

As for self-medicating.....my teen sons have disorders, I'll not be encouraging them to smoke pot and get off their meds. They have no horrible side effects. Unless one considers reality a horrible side effect....

Mags wrote:@ Pax re: defense.....

I certainly didn't ask that you apologize for anything.

Drunk drivers have all sorts of sob stories.....I just don't care. They can all be gut shot IMO. Kill a half dozen of them and people will stop driving drunk. And if not, keep it going til it does. Darwin will win that battle one way or another.

The America you speak of has complicated the Justice system beyond almost all workability.

hmm. given that i suffer from PSTD and panic disorder myself, i tend to disagree with the notion that smoking pot is a good idea to help deal with such issues.

i also tend to have a hard time talking to folks when they are stoned. my most recent experience with this was when my brother and i were attempting to converse, at night, on my mother's patio whilst outside smoking cigarettes. he was so stoned, that he kept getting distracted by the lit end of his cigarette (i can only assume he was seeing contrails or something) and would lose track of whatever he had just said. while it was vaguely amusing, it was also very frustrating to try and speak to him at all.


i worked in a pawn shop and saw too much of folks coming in to pawn their kid's xbox's or playstations to pay for dope....
