Shocking video on the "war on drugs" and whether Marijuana is in fact "harmless." Most shocking is at 4:25 when you see 12-15 year olds smoking weed like it's nothing!
Why the irrational hate towards a nontoxic flower? The constitution was written for all of US, not just the ones calling for public execution of herb users.
If its legalized it won’t be long before taxpayers are subsidizing it for the chilrun
Beavis and Buttheads everywhere in the new Idiocracy
Wow, so you want to legalize all that stuff too?
So, just plan admit you want it for the kids too, just like for sex
I would go as far as a 1.00 a pack. Just use the tax to go after the drug cartel and hire more border patrol to stop the smuggling. If you tax it, I bet it would be more lucrative or on the same level as Alchohol. And more people die in car accidents drinking then driving under the influence of Pot.
I disagree. Based on my own experience as a yute several decades ago, illegal drugs were easy to obtain. Dealers never asked for IDs. Alcohol was much harder to get ahold of.
bttt
Nontoxic?
Think it’s harmless do you?
Your rhetoric is goofy and fallacious, and there’s nothing to applaud about your message here.
Believing that drugs should be legal for consenting adults to use, doesn’t imply that it’s legit for kids to use them. By this kind of argument, folks might as well be arguing that alcohol ought to be illegal as well… “fo’ the chillunz” and all.
Clinically speaking, water is far more dangerous, as you can drink enough to poison yourself to death.
;-\
do you think not wanting kids to get high is irrational?
series?
Ask me a question. We will discuss it.
I will add here that the police drug war machine is established. It’s an industry. Just because you take away pot enforcement, they will just move their war to something else...enviornmentalism’s epa raids, USDA farm raids, war on terror raids... The police war on the American people won’t stop with the legalization of drugs. They will just refocus and group to go after some other Federal war on Americans. I don’t see any great thing here to cheer.
The downside of legalizing the use of pot is that it is not good for the brain development and growth in young people. It will curtail their mental and social functioning. It’s worse than booze. I’ve seen it’s effect on people who use over the years.
Winning the legalization of drugs is a boobie prize as far as turning out ambitious and sharp minded people for schooling and the workforce.
Sounds like you’re using liberal logic.
You approve of the drug war absent Constitutional authority. Where did you think all this Mission Creep in law enforcement came from? The various War on * all started with your War on Drugs.
And no one, not even libertarians, thinks kids doing dope is a “good thing”. It’s an Adult choice.
You are truly lost.
I NEVER say in the video that it implies “it’s legit for kids to use them.”
I simply show that statistically, teenagers are much more LIKELY to use drugs when they are legalized or perceived as harmless.
That’s just a fact.
Wrong. Freedom loving men created the Constitution. They were in very sense of the word, revolutionaries.
Modern “conservatives” are boot lickers kneeling at the feet of the State, nothing more.
Jefferson, Madison, and Washington would tar and feather any modern “conservative” they came across.
Those guys would have the age of consent at 25
You, 4, if that
Do you think it contributes to the perception that it is harmless to use hyperbolic propaganda to try and frighten them?
The issue has been polarized to the point there is no middle ground. Eventually they'll find it it's not what they were told. In the short term, it appears to them the people that are telling them it's harmless are right, and the people that are telling them it will turn them into brain-dead schizophrenics are wrong.
Prove both of your assertions, dimwit. Find me one single writing of any of those three on the subject.
While your at it, Skippy, find one single post of mine in my 15 year posting history in which I support lowering the age of consent to 4.
***hole.
