The sky is falling the sky is falling lord all mighty the sky is falling lets all move back into caves and only use bonfires started with flint and steel to heat and cook with

I made a joke about a month or two ago on a nanny state do gooder thread about the biggest danger to world health is history books because everyonethat reads them eventually dies. Now today i see this quote about comic books. The really bad part is the guy probably had a straight face the whole time he was spewing out that crap. Hell he might even actually believe what he said although I really hope he didnt.

In each case they are correct ... had it not been for the waltz society would not have advanced to such a point where we see today large percentages of unwed women giving birth.

I'm closely involved in the comic book industry. I guess I should be... hold on a sec. gurgle,gurgle,gurgle, cough cough... ok, what was I saying? Oh yea, wasted.

Librarians these days are all talking about GNs and illustrated comic books. Look at the bays that Borders and Barnes and Nobles devote to the products of the comic industry. Where would Hollywood get new ideas if it wasn't for the art and literary form of comic books.

Comic books have never been more interesting or better than they are today.

I just finished a comic book by Jean Phillipe Stassen that discussed the Rwanda genocide. Another of my current favorite books is Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi that looks into her life as a young girl growing up in Mullah dominated Iran.

Comics more than ever are just books that are illustrated.

Seems to go that way, some seem to stay in politics and push recreational drugs also. A true waste of life.

Me too, but I was being sarcastic. Scroll down from my post to find someone who wasn't.

Sure enough, but I don't think the ones in jail are in a position to be regular members of political parties that obsess about recreational drug legalization.
I had family do counseling with prisoners and most all mixed other drugs with pot as they did their crimes, so IMO it WOULD be better for us all if Pot never existed. (PS, that is called first hand knowledge)
I do think the harm it has done far outweighs the good it has done the few cancer patients who might need it.

Although it's unlikely that all who smoke grass eventually wind up on crack/meth/heroin,I'll wager that the huge majority of those on the hard stuff started with grass.

Still peddling that same line huh? Lets review. Mixed it with other drugs. Would that be Alcohol by chance? Or Crack? Well if they are mixing it with other drugs then how can you conclude that MJ was the problem? Would be more convincing if they said the ONLY thing they used was MJ and then they went on a rape rampage. See if you can find some examples like that.

Every few months I am compelled to remind you, that you, hearing from your family, counseling prisons, who say that most all mixed with drugs, is NOT first hand.
