Both the right and the left.
I can look them in the eye, and I can face myself, in a mirror! I can stand before God, before kneeling to worship Him.
I am also consistent.

If the shoe fits...
Sorry. No dice. ALL of us have had our share of problems.......and I mean BAD ones. I didn't choose to deal with them by sticking a needle in my arm. Most don't.
I've never had sympathy for those who are too weak to deal with their problems more constructively. I've known far too many people who've been through seven levels of Hell who didn't resort to coke or heroin to "cope". That's a total cop out. I don't and never will choose to say "gee, it's ok, dude.......I understand you've had it tough. Your daddy beat you, your cousin molested you, you lost everything in a fire at age 9, all the kids picked on you, you're the wrong color, you lived in all the wrong neighborhoods, etc., etc........so shoot up with my little pat on the head for a blessing."
Utter bulls**t.
Oh?
I'm sure you can. If you kid went down for a long sentence for a drug offense I have no doubt you would have no problem looking them in the eye and looking at yourself in the mirror. Afterall, they would only be paying the consequences for what you taught them.
Hey, you could even get a nice bumper sticker to show how proud you are, "My Kids A Felon".
You just don't get it!
My kids w'ont go down for a long time, for any reason. But, that defies your logic, so you post these unfounded childish attempts, at what? Certainly, it isn't humorous. And, it doesn't present any refutation, of anything I am posting.
Ergo, you accept my postings, as true depictions!
You are a sanctimonious, hypocritical, bigot, by definition! If you don't know what these words mean, read my pevious posts. I figured they aren't your type of pejoratives, since I didn't call you anything unfounded, or imply anything not already recognizable/. I just figured you didn't have a dictionary, or a factual concept of liberty!!!
(pejorative \Pe*jor"a*tive\, a. [F. p['e]joratif, fr. L. pejor, used as compar. of malus evil.] Implying or imputing evil; depreciatory; disparaging; unfavorable.) Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary,
(prejudice n. An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts. A preconceived preference or idea. The act or state of holding unreasonable preconceived judgments or convictions. [See Synonyms at predilection.] Irrational suspicion or hatred of a particular group, race, or religion. Detriment or injury caused to a person by the preconceived, unfavorable conviction of another or others.
The shoe seems to fit!
Our children learn from us, and hey, your kids have a dad who brags that he buys dope from active duty Marines at Camp Lajun...LOL! Which of course is utter BS but hey, they might actually believe you.
And yes, your kids probably won't go down for time, as I said, apparently they got themselves clean despite your example. Which there again, spares you the agony of having to look them in the eyes if they had been convicted for living up to your example.
Oh, that's right...you'd have no problem looking them in the eye...and I'm sure you wouldn't.
You're really weak. You present nothing for defense, only silly attempts at attack. You seem to know very little of the real world, and apparently don't have any kids! If you do, are they robots? Can they have original thoughts? I'm sure your kids would never do anything that 'dad' disaporoved. (LOL)
My kids learned a lot about not condemning folks, with which they don't always agree. I taught them to think, to present facts, not idle chatter, when arguing a point, and they learned it well, from 'dear old dad'! (That is why one, of my sons, is a cop, and the other, a teacher. Two more are mommies, and happily raising more like us! (ps- they are able to be stay-at-home mommies, 'cause dear old dad, has done well enough to give them each a house, to own, and live, without the bondages of debt!)
The best argument, is to live well, in the face of your enemy!!!!
(Wish not so much to live long as to live well. Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790), Poor Richard's Almanack, 1738)
I wish you didn't try so hard, to be an enemy, of freedom. Even my idea of what it means, doesn't jibe with yours!
LOL! I'm sure that's about as truthful as your claims of buying dope from active duty Marines. Which is exactly why I'm sure everyone believes what you post...sure.
What's your excuse?
You consistently show that you really don't know much about what is happening in the 'real world'! Maybe you ought to get out more, and smell the daisies!
Is that the dope you buy from active duty Marines? Yep, I'm sure you're just as successful in life as you are buying dope from Marines...no doubt about it.
My dream? I'm not the one buying dope from active duty Marines...remember, that's your lie, not mine.
