>>>Post #55 -- It's the difference between strychnine and arsenic. One just kills you more slowly is all.
Strychnine and arsenic are to an individual as "drugs" are to a society. This is referred to as a "Metaphor."
I see. So, you excitedly proclaim opium and marijuana will both kill "you". Then, when it's pointed out what a horrible, counter-productive & incorrect analogy that is, all of a sudden it is a "metaphor".
Perhaps next you can use your infinite wisdom to instruct us serfs about constitutional penumbra, since plain language is apparently not good enough for you.
That is, if you can stop cheering for Big Government long enough.
Jared Loughner, as well.
