If you want to kill yourself go ahead. To manipulate a nation and its people into a drug haze and addiction is criminal. No more a pusher that we saw destroy many people in the 70s.

To manipulate a nation and its people into a drug haze and addiction is criminal. My guess is that you don't feel this way about alcohol; the drug that causes the most amount of death and mayhem in the US. Like alcohol all drugs have moderate fully functioning users and abusers. Also, recreational drugs in general do not "numb" people. The biggest impediment to the success of anti-drug groups is their refusal to accept the real reason why people use drugs -- because they feel fucking awesome. Drugs like datura stramonium "Jimson weed" are often left legal because people have a tendancy not to abuse them, get this... because they don't feel fucking awesome. thomas.wong1986 says No more a pusher that we saw destroy many people in the 70s. Everyone hates the pusher, now the dealer...

Not everyone in the South owned slaves. This controversy is no less stupid than if the British descendents in this country griped about the the "Don't Tread on me" or the 1776 13 stars American flag.

WTF are you babbling about and how does it relate to decriminalizing drugs in any way shape or form?

I mean if people like Rush Limbaugh did drugs after all his ranting about locking people up and throwing away the key then Rush would of course turn himself into the police and insist on being locked up and throwing away the key. Good thing there are no conservative hypocrites.

Why someone forms an opinion on something they have zero experience or knowledge about, is beyond me,,,,, There is no right or wrong, only that which feels good and that which doesn't. Sugar is addictive as hell, toxic to the human body, and doesn't offer the return of euphoric high. Why on earth do you consume sugar thomas? Is it because you're addicted and can't figure out how to break free from the chains?

    14   11:47am Tue 10 Jul 2012   Share   Quote   Permalink   Like   Dislike (2)   As to the huffpo article, the premise is based on a faulty assumption, that criminalizing drug possession has lead to lower rates of usage. Bwahahahaha, those crooks, think y'all are so stupid Hemp/marijuana is the super plant. What else grows so easily on this planet that has such broad functioning utility? You have to be the special brand of jack ass to believe that some crooked mother fucker in government at some point in time, dreamed up a law with the citizenrys best interests in his heart. Shit was no different in the first great depression. William Randolph Hearst and the Duponts inc used the government and the media as a disinformation tool, to squash competition, insure their personal gains, at the cost of decades of suffering for the poor and non whites. Marijuana prohibitionists are much more racist then any tea partier with a confederfate flag. The only way to drum up enough fear to scare the simple simon motherfuckers that have perpetuated this nonsense, was to stoke their fears of the brown man coming to rape up all your white women, if they were allowed to get high on that evil plant
