If you think this is about weed, perhaps I can get you to vote for Hildebeast.

Uh, right. Stunning logical progression there, sport. Interesting that you'd want to persuade me in that direction though. Hmmm.

Anyway, I know what this is about. This is libertarians whining about the evil government burdening ~~meth labs~~ uh, store clerks. Of course, nobody here actually wants meth, it's just the principle of the thing.

I do have a problem with our government jailing people for selling LEGAL substances.

Oh I agree. If these people were truly not aware of the meth world, they did no wrong and should not be incarcerated. Even if they sold truly neutral items, like camping fuel, and knew it might be misused, they should walk. If they sold a dozen boxes of behind-the-counter cold meds at a time? Sounds like a willing accomplice to me.

We could make it all prescription-only again, but we all know that isn't what you folks want. You want fewer evil big government drug regulations, not more. Not that any libertarians would buy the stuff. Just the principle, you know.

Libertarians spend A LOT more time (30-40% by your estimation) whining about our nazi-like government jailing innocent people just for selling ILLEGAL substances (that they don't use, of course. It's just the principle). This is not a conservative value, but one much more aligned with the aging antiwar hippy type.

Look at the posts on this thread. See any that sound anti-American/"Mother Sheehan"/Michael Moore/moonbat-ish?

Some examples. I changed one word. The rest could easily be lifted from the sewer of DU:

they shoud just shoot him in the back of the head and make his family pay the cost of the bullet /sarcasm

This is absolutely outrageous. It make me want to take back all the nasty things I said about the ACLU and write them a check.

We've lost our minds. Our country has lost it's mind. How many more lives to be sacrificed for the "war on ~~drugs~~ terror".

out-of-control Amerika ping

Its not the meth heads you have to worry about breaking into your house and killing you in the middle of the night espially if they know you have a ccw

The prosecutors have become the criminals.

Conservative FReepers, or a bunch of drug obsessed paranoid anarchist whiners?

You want fewer evil big government drug regulations, not more.

Yep...that's what used to be "conservative" thinking around these parts.

Now we've got a bunch of big-government nanny statists who want to pass as many laws as possible in order to keep law abiding citizens from conveniently purchasing legal substances.

It's pretty obvious from your posts that your political leanings skew towards the liberal side of the spectrum.

Why are you even here at FR?
