Buttigieg wants to decriminalize possession of all drugs, including heroin and meth
Biz Pac Review ^ | 2/09/20 | Tom Tillison

**SNIP**

To recap, Buttigieg is saying possession of heroin and meth would be legal, but the distribution would not be legal.

Wallace pressed to ensure that Buttigieg was being understood correctly.

“You would say that possession of heroin is not illegal,” the Fox News host said, to make clear.

“Not going to be dealt with through incarceration,” Buttigieg replied, coming up just short on saying it would be legal, but stressing there would be no punitive action that involves jail.

Wallace noted that the candidate’s website says decriminalize it, prompting more doublespeak from Buttigieg.

“Yes,” he answered. “Or it could be a misdemeanor. The point is not the legal niceties, the point is we’ve learned through 40 years of a failed war on drugs that criminalizing addiction doesn’t work.”

This great stupid PC reality earns multiple Darwin Awards - Removing Drug addicts from the breeding pool is a good thing for the rest of the world.

("Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge." - Charles Darwin)

The Darwin Awards are a tongue-in- cheek honor, originating in Usenet newsgroup discussions around 1985. They recognize individuals who have supposedly contributed to human evolution by selecting themselves out of the gene pool via death or sterilization by their own actions.

If Buttigieg is elected I recommend that the speculative investor buy shares in companies that manufacture cremation equipment and the cardboard box coffins in which people are cremated because there will be a bumper crop of indigent dead making there way through the mortuaries of this country.

Buttigieg, the evasive chameleon
By Peter Skurkiss

EXCERPT

Secondly, look at Pete Buttigieg’s father, Joseph. He was a Marxist professor at Notre Dame where he was on the faculty for 37 years, starting from 1980. Professor Buttigieg was a scholar on Italian communist Antonio Gramsci (1891 - 1937). He admired Gramsci so much that he was a founding member and one-time president of the International Gramsci Society.

Gramsci’s main original contribution to Marxism was that for communism to succeed, culture first had to be corrupted. This was to be done by subverting the institutions of a country from the inside out. Sadly, this has proven highly effective in the United States. Starting in earnest after WWII, communists and like-minded people went into government bureaucracies, universities, the media, and religious dominations and slowly started spread their left wing thinking throughout them. These infiltrators did not announce they were communists or were their fellow travelers. No, rather they hid that fact and hid it well.

As they advanced upward in these organizations, they made sure to hire their own kind and filter out others. One result of this process explains why so many college departments skew hard left. A conservative candidate had little chance of being brought in, especially if he or she held strong Christian beliefs. Ironically, many universities that were started by devout Christians now harbor centers of anti-Christianity bigotry within them. This is Gramsci writ large.

This brings us back to boy mayor. Given that he idolized his father, it is easy to assume that he absorbed Gramsci’s teachings at his daddy’s knee. Pete Buttigieg is a red diaper baby. Given his background and upbringing, he’s a natural at hiding his core beliefs to advance the cause. Of course, if the U.S. had an honest media, it would be child’s play to smoke out Buttigieg’s true beliefs and expose him for what he is. But we all know the term ‘honest media’ is oxymoron.

The “homeless” problem looks like it is going to be worse in the Denver area this year. I see a lot more now and this is before ‘safe’ injection sites are instituted.

Oh? This guy can touch another man's sexual areas and genitalia, and in turn be touched by other men in the same way. He can allow, even encourage another man to insert his sexual equipment into his fecal outlet in sad imitation of normal human sexual behavior. But only when he advocates legalizing heroin and other highly addictive dangerous drugs do you call him nuts!

What's up with YOU???

Chilling. That explains a lot.

It’s not a popular position, but all narcotic drugs were legal until drug prohibition a century ago.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibition_of_drugs#Prohibition

The nation not only somehow survived the widespread availability of narcotic drugs, it prospered and grew into the largest economy in the world.

Legalize all drugs and outlaw all guns. What could possibly go wrong?
