A druggie ZOT on a ZOT thread.

My thought is certain recreational drugs, such as marijuana, should remain off legal limits for the under 18 year olds, but become legally available when used in the proper environment. In many ways, pot is quite similar to alcohol, in that they should be used responsibly. My thought is to make the sale of marijuana less profitable by making it legal for home use. Personally, I don't smoke anything now, and do not want the smell of tobacco or pot on my clothes should I visit a public place, such as a shopping mall or bus stop. I know this idea has been kicked around for years, and hasn't really gained traction. My concern is, even if pot was declared legal and open for adult use, how would those newly arrived Mexcian gangs deal with this market loss? Would they end up trying to raid, ruin and close down any public seller of these formerly illegal substances? I think for the first few years, there may be such push back and attempts at intimidation by those losing business to the open market. Its' not really my fight anymore, but, so many cities say they are inching toward bankruptcy, this new open market may help to boost city funds. Yes, it would be a bold step in the cold, deep waters of chance. But it may work. We go rid of prohibition of alcohol, and the country survived the gang's angry wrath back then too.
Upthread there are reports of the zottee stalking FReepers, and his FReep page flamed others, and he had been warned by the mods. And I personally could go into detail about other abuses, but I’ll leave it alone.
I will say this: Just say no and his pro-drug crusade made Chet99 (pitbulls) and Willie (trains) Green look like rank amateurs at trolling threads. If they were were justifiably zotted for trolling - then justice has truly been served today with kicking him off.
Well it is..or was....a legal dope thread...with OP zotted too
If this is now zottable offense here it should be put in the guidelines
My beef is pack mentality..never cared for it much
Though I regret having to watch the wideawakes exodus from afar....I would have enjoyed that ...
You and manc are decent folks I’ve watched a long time
Nuff said
Mason880 is a zottee.
My pleasure, dear.
Jim and the mods put up with him for a really long time.
It may be just a suspension, but there is a good possibility that he really went too far this time.
Why, thank you, my friend. I appreciate it.
Yes, and I need more ZOT graphics lest the fans become jaded on my old stuff. ;-)
It would help if the trolls would just give up. The mods always catch them eventually.
But then my low-volume ZOT Lightning ping list would be near-zero volume.
And then I’d only very rarely get to say, “Hi Colonel! Nice to see you again.”
Oh, yes indeedy do!
Good riddance to bad rubbish. I think I’ll have a celebratory beer later. ; )

Your arrogance will be your downfall.
The image actually comes from the cover of a book in a line of books and gaming products sold under the banner “Warhammer.” If you use Dogpile or Google to search for images using that as your keyword, you’ll turn up a whole heap of cool similar pics.
Thanks for the Ping, TOL.
About time!!!
One of the libertarians it is impossible to debate rationally with.
Thank you for the nice graphics tip, my friend.
You’re welcome for the ping. [smiles]
They do twist and turn. Not much of what they say is very consistent or makes sense.
They don’t have critical thinking ability, and everything is how they “feeeeel.”
It’s not a good way to make life’s decisions or participate in a reasoned debate.
I actually agree with a good portion of the libertarian party platform, the economic and regulatory angle. But the virulent pro-vice and open borders poison any rational positions.
Although most libertarians claim they don’t do drugs even though they want them legal, most of them are so irrational I think their interest in legalized drugs might be a tad more than academic, if you get my drift.
They throw a lot of slogans around, duck behind and go “Neener neener” and think that wins the debate.
Yes. The ones who clearly articulate advocacy for Liberty per the Constitution are the good guys, but the libertines tend to pervert the Libertarian cause.
It’s a shame. They have to stick their hot dogs into everything until all is polluted.
The Libertarians think they can safely chuck Judeo-Christian values and turn Evil into a profit.
The way I see it, if you had a world of pure Good there would be no problems such as crime and corruption and the world would go on forever.
If you had a world of pure Evil there would be every problem such as crime and corruption and the world would quickly consume itself and cease to exist.
Therefor Evil needs Good but Good does not need Evil. If there were no Good then there would be no Evil but if there were no Evil then there would only be Good.
The Libertarian way is self destructive to the civilized way of living. In the end I can’t figure out how that is supposed to be good for them. It is foolish in the extreme to measure freedom with drug addiction. Foolish and Evil.
Interesting, and well said.
Oh, you again.
When you retread, be sure to show up in this thread and rant at us in a paranoic frenzy.
Adults can't cop a buzz now? Maybe I'm missing your point.
