And Frack if MotherFrackin' Hero doesn't make some sense here..... (I'm trying to be "PC" for the soccer moms in here today).
Stop messing with my head with that Black/White shit lawyer.
That's elitist though man. Not racist. I never go the feeling that Chrisisall has a sliver of racism in him. I say a lot of stuff that folk with delicate sensibilities might infer as racist, but that's never my intention, as most of my points are proven fact and decent people of minority persuasions tend to agree with me about them. And don't turn that into a racist comment, lawyer, because I know by the year 2020 or something I'm going to be a minority myself. It's just a fact.
Chrisisall though...... never even seen him on the radar for saying anything that could even remotely be construed as a racist comment in RWED.
You know better than that Hero, and I think that's why you used the "()" there..... You try throwing a net like that on me and it will have a better chance of sticking, but you know I'm gonna do my damnedest to shake that bitch off....

Just exactly how would legalisation make the 'crime' worse when it would no longer be a crime ?
And as for protection, that's not exactly a sustainable argument, because Gov "protection" is more often than not worse than anything it could conceivably be protecting you FROM, and let's face it, if with all of the jackboot lockdown you still got that kind of availability on campus, it sure as hell ain't gonna change.
The best protection comes from good parenting and teaching good sense, independant thought, and responsible use to your kids, it's just that simple.
I mean, seriously, if your kid was gonna smoke up a phattie, wouldn't you rather it be in your own backyard with a bag of chips, some tunes and a brew, under your supervision ?
You'd get a chance to chill with your own kid and connect with them in a way most parents never do, while maintaining a protective supervision so they do not endanger themselves or others.
Compare that to smoking weed of dubious quality in the back room of a freakin crack house where anything could happen.
I've had to "rescue" a friends kid from such a place once after someone spiked whatever she was drinking, and she had the good sense to *immediately* call the one person she trusted most in the world while she was still cogent enough to do so - where that might have gone otherwise is a matter I am glad we never did find out.*
There's just no replacement for teaching a kid responsible and sensible conduct, no matter how you try.
-F
*Kid learned her lesson from that one, and very thankfully not in any kind of hard way.

Quote:I read you’re whole post. I just responded to the issue you had with what I said. I didn’t get into the superfluous content, because in a lot of cases I don’t disagree. In others case I didn’t want to get into it, such as the pothead vs. Ritalin/anti-depressant issue - I’m pretty sure the potheads are a lot worse, but I guess it depends on the type of company one prefers.

Quote:That’s how, right there. Something is legalized and suddenly it’s okay. This is the problem I have with the whole legalization argument. Even if it were legal I still would want it to be a crime for it be on college campuses or in the hands of children. I don’t really understand why this is so hard to understand. It really don't seem like I'm asking a lot here.

Oh how I long for the days when the WH didn't brutalize every science - from whether or not to regulate perchlorate in drinking water to the connection (there isn't any) between ETP and breast cancer. It all started when Bush said the NAS would decide on arsenic in drinking water based on 'sound science' - and sound science bit Bush's political ass. Ever since then science has been perverted, subverted, and stymied in every way possible.
So take this how you will -

Feds: Teen use of pot can lead to dependency, mental illness

WASHINGTON - Depression, teens and marijuana are a dangerous mix that can lead to dependency, mental illness or suicidal thoughts, according to a White House report being released Friday.

Thats racist (or elitist).
Quote:Let me get specific...attacking someone's personal assets ENDANGERS their well-being, therefore it is a kind of violence, whereas shoplifting a 50 dollar item from a Walmart, while all kinds of wrong, directly endangers no one.
Guy pulls a gun and takes your wallet you want in jail. Guy defrauds old folks of life savings you want out on community service.
Guy breaks into a house you want in jail. Guy steals you ID cleanig out accounts and ruining credit you want out on community service.
But thanks for giving me the chance to clarify it.

I made no reference to a solution, I made a statement that if we were to legalise drugs criminal interests would fall by the way side. This works both in historical precedent and common sense. I made no reference to an actual solution, just an expected effect of said solution. Legalising drugs, would in fact include some form of regulation, and comparing it to the end of prohibition likewise indicates regulation, since that's what happened to Alcohol. I have no idea where you got a proposed solution from, I can only assume you either made it up, or your English language skills are somewhat lower than those of a native speaker.
More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

Protecting us from dangerous criminals.

After reading how these guys were operating, I'd suggest "Protecting us from stupid drug dealers" would be a more accurate discription. Maybe you should just consider it a Darwinian action which will improve the drug dealer (and college student) gene pool. Hey, a Twofer!

I still believe 'soft' drugs should be illegal for those under 21 - too much brain development going on before then. Which of course would make them highly attractive to young folk. Well, I guess you can't have everything. 
As for drugs in general, I think they should be legal, but you get a prescription for them and you buy them - cheaply - through the universal health-care system.
The more profit and glamour you remove from the equation, the less interest anyone has in not just selling, but actively promoting drug use. People will see drug abuse for what it is - a debilitating, humiliating loss of personhood.
