None of my business AB about what happened to you, but I would appreciate any input: what would you have me tell my son and my other extended family when they want to protect and server? Who is the enemy and how can we win?

Thunder - stop and think if you were on the other side of those percentages. If you are willing to lock up everyone based on “laws” what happens when Thunder gets thrown in the hoosegow based on those laws? Thunder did no wrong. Thunder is a stand up guy. Thunder doesn’t deserve to spend 10-20. Thunder was just trying to help a buddy.

Unfortunately Thunder gets the bottom bunk next to Bubba.

Thanks TZ - I hear you the crack.math thing. That stuff can wreck a whole town so yeah its bad. Lock them up and throw away the key. I’m there with you on that.

But I have to think even with that, someone intent on wrecking their brain with meth is no real danger to me - UNLESS they can’t get it, then they come looking for my stuff and i have to shoot them. Which puts me in court, defending my liberty. I would much rather just give them the dope and let them kill themselves and leave me alone.

That is true - if dope was free there are still assholes that would resort to stealing it. A good metaphor for fiat money too.

The question really is: what is the moral basis for protecting my stuff (and yours) from predation committed by dickweeds who do not follow our creed? In my opinion we do not have to justify our actions beyond first principles.

Absolutely - a bunch of Ronulans over here just in case you are awake. Apparently RPaul thinks drug laws are racist.

“Jesse Ventura is a dude I’d have a beer with though.”

And discuss what ? The latest 9/11 conspiracy theory ?

Fortunately I’m a Texan so that issue is long settled.

Jesse Ventura describes himself as a social liberal. I assume that means pro-porn, pro-drug, pro-abortion and pro-fag. The typical Libertarian lineup of vices. Oh, and of course pro-prostitution too.

Cultural Marxism is just as evil as economic Marxism.

That makes liberaltarians as sick as the Authoritarian Left.
