I am a firm believer that you should be able to do anything you want to do in a free country as long as you're not harming others or unnecessarily inconveniencing them. Though the non-violent offenders aren't doing the former, they're certainly doing the latter in Seattle.

What I do know is that the US Prison system is slave labor, and corporations make big profits off of it. It's not designed to rehabilitate anybody, and quite the contrary, it turns non-violent people who were just misguided into hardened criminals when they do get out. Most of them end up back inside.

Many folk had heard rumor that the Prison System was designed for the purpose of Punishing miscreants who decided to violate the Laws with the known Punishment of incarceration.
Funny how that sounds like it makes sense. It punishes as it was intended to punish.




So, the giant secret of ending the War on Drugs is to.....STOP ENFORCING THE LAW!!!!
Funny, this sounds much like the Libtard solution of lawlessness - err, actually, it is the same!




Too bad for you a lot of the things you think should be punishable by prison time are being legalized, huh?

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Yeah, we need to do better. More of this and less jail stuff. Not working.

Also, don't do drugs.

Back in the 1990s, Portugal faced a heroin crisis. Most people knew someone affected by the lethal drug. Just two decades later, the country has one of the lowest drug-related death rates in the world. This dramatic turnaround isn't credited to a hard-line approach, but instead by decriminalizing all drugs.

Kind of funny finding an issue where the only people on one side are Wishy and JSF.

I didn't think that was possible.

Really? He thinks Overdose Island is a good idea too?

I think we SHOULD stop wasting resources on jails and rehabs..... and instead give every hard core drug addict an option to go to an island stocked to the brim with every drug you can think of. Free food, free booze... All they have to do is fill out a will and a waiver of liability (and be on birth control) and we let them party hardy. Idiots remove themselves from the equation, naturally.

They get what they want, and we get a more orderly and less diseased population.

WIN WIN!

I knew a guy who's uncle used to say that they should put all the gays on gay island and let them all get aids and fuck each other to death.

That's exactly who you sound like right now.

You people are probably the most gullible people I've ever seen. You haven't the slightest clue when you are being trolled and when you aren't. It's a MILE OF FUN

We never know who we're talking to on any given night, Sybil.

We didn't know that we were talking to Wishy the Unfunny Comedian when you posted that, and we weren't talking to Wishy the man-hating lunatic.

False Equivalency. The end goal of being gay is NOT to die, it's to be fabulous and get laid....a LOT.

The end goal of drug addiction is to be high as much as possible. Every drug addict knows death is a possibility EVERY time they get high.

I know a few gay guys who would argue you about the being fabulous part as well as the insinuation that they are into promiscuous sex or have a desire to have sex more than a normal heterosexual would.

But what else should I expect from a virtue signalling backwoods Indiana person who's never actually met a gay person and learned everything they know about gay people from watching The Birdcage.




And... you're concurrently running a new thread where you're throwing weed users in with all other hard drug users. Nobody who smokes weed ever goes into it knowing that death is a possibility because nobody has ever died from smoking weed in the history of smoking weed.
