That's Heather Raybon shortly after she was badly burned making her own meth - think she'd have been doing that if she could have legally bought it?

Full Title: Strong cannabis causes one in four cases of psychosis: Users three times more likely to have an episode than those who have never tried it ªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªªª As many as a quarter of new cases of psychotic mental illness can be blamed on super-strength strains of cannabis, scientists will warn this week. The potent form of the drug – known as ‘skunk’ – is so powerful that users are three times more likely to have a psychotic episode than those who have never tried it.

Now you want government to kill people selling pot?
Do you suggest they be hung or beheaded?
No, you don't get it. Like most people, you *THINK* you get it, but it is more complicated than it appears on the surface.
You people who think you have simple answers are always utterly shocked when things don't work out as you expected when pushing your social changes.
You are just like all the other liberals that think they can tamper with society and it won't blow up in their face, but it always does.
I don't know about you, but I have PERSONAL experience with drug addicts, and if you think you want some of that in your neighborhood you are either ignorant and/or deluded.
But as Franklin always said, "Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other."
Which is it Mr. lamp?
And they say smoking dope doesn't make one psychotic. Your method of arguing certainly supports the primary contention of this thread.

Just mass murder all of them?
I guess that will stop humans from using substances like pot.
No, you don't get it.
Oh yes I get it Mr. lamp. You want to kill them all. You said it yourself.
So there ya have it.
I didn't just claim it, I proved it. The DEA says, "In 1880 [...] there were over 400,000 opium addicts in the U.S. [...] By 1900, about one American in 200 was either a cocaine or opium addict." (http://web.archive.org/web/20110529221013/http://www.justice.gov/dea/demand/speakout/06so.htm) 400,000 in a population of 50M is one in 125 - ergo, between 1880 and 1900 addiction declined. Nonetheless, in textbook Drug Warrior fashion, they claim, " Addiction skyrocketed." Hilarious!
I daresay you people are THRILLED TO DEATH to find someone you can use as a poster child for your dope smoking advocacy. You people are celebrating/exploiting his injuries as a way of pushing your agenda.
And of course, this is just about the sort of behavior I expect from dope smokers. I've seen quite a lot of it in my life, and it still runs true to form.
Oh, and here is another example of what dope smoking does to someone.
It was only horrifically negligent at several levels.
Which is it Mr. lamp?
And they say smoking dope doesn't make one psychotic.
That was an evasive response, but I guess your answer is yes, it was the pot that made the cold blooded ding kill sniper guy and his friend.
Got it.
Sure. I'm sure it has expanded the IRS, The TSA, the DHS, and every other government organization that has grown far beyond it's original function. To you, the "war on drugs" is the only thing growing the government, but to people who can see deeper and longer, it is but merely one more excuse for growing the government.
The government is growing with or without the war on drugs, and the quicker you people figure out that it's going to grow anyway, the quicker you can start seeing things clearly.
Beyond that, why not put the blame on the people who insist on using dope? If they weren't insisting on using it, the law enforcement agencies wouldn't be able to use that as an excuse for growing, now would they?
As I've pointed out innumerable times, it is the Libertarians that cause the growth of government, not Conservatives. Libertarians got to insist on people doing things they shouldn't be doing, and taxpayers have to come along and pick up the pieces. This is how you GET the government involved. By making messes that someone else has to come along and clean up.
Now you want government to kill people selling pot?
It wouldn't upset me greatly, but I think they ought to concentrate on the sellers of Opium, Meth and Cocaine first.
The government is growing with or without the war on drugs
LOL....
So enough adults saved from harming themselves can justify harm inflicted on an innocent toddler?
No, I think she would have been dead before she had a chance to blow herself up.
I have personally known several people who died from Meth and Crack. Do not presume to tell me how these people behave when they can get access to these drugs. The only limiting factor to their binges is difficulty in getting ephedrine. If they could get all they wanted, they would quickly die.
It wouldn't upset me greatly
Obviously, you stated you want them killed.
I believe you.
No, dumbass, it isn't "murder" when it is done in punishment of a crime. It's called "Execution" and they deserve it. What they heap onto their victims is as bad or worse.
They're an integral part of the equation - but the issue is not "blame" but what is easier to change: government policy or individuals' choices?
This is exactly what I mean when I say it is a waste of time to look at any of your links. They are always a deliberate effort to mislead.

Oh yeah, it would be perfectly legal right?

I agree that the DEA deliberate strives to mislead. (Good thing for the cause of freedom that they're so bad at it.)
