I don’t think it’s over the top. Not at all. The drug business is like anything else. It’s agenda driven. Meaning the escalation of meth, cocaine and other harder drugs are naturally to follow.

Take sexual perversion as an example. We decriminalized rape, incest, gay sex, even sex abuse with a minor. We voted in gay marriages, elected queers to Congress. Even gonna make one a SC justice.

And we ain’t seen nothing yet.

It’s a slippery slope. Frog in a pot of water.

So no. It’s not a far reach from pot to meth and heroin.

It’s just around the corner.

Oh. And don’t forget. These sick-o groups are after our children.

And therein lies the divide in the GOP...the (l)ibertarians and the moralists ("real" conservatives).

I suspect we'll never agree.

I know only that I will resist with all of my abilities those who would tell me what I can or cannot do as long as I hurt nobody but myself.

And, please, spare me about how "the rest of society will have to fix me or take care of me" etc.

I don't want any help or interference of any kind.

This CA proposition is a good one and it will pass. And it'll take large bucks out of the prohibition industry...on BOTH sides of the law.

It’s for parents to purge the baleful influences out of the schools, and if they can’t to home school or get the laws changed. One needn’t go as far as “Jack’s mommy snorts coke.” We have “Heather has two mommies” to deal with.

Long time lurker, just signed up to comment on this, in the interest of clearing some things up:

"I don’t think it’s over the top. Not at all. The drug business is like anything else. It’s agenda driven. Meaning the escalation of meth, cocaine and other harder drugs are naturally to follow."
The agenda of freedom?

"Take sexual perversion as an example. We decriminalized rape, incest, gay sex, even sex abuse with a minor. We voted in gay marriages, elected queers to Congress. Even gonna make one a SC justice."
I'm sorry, when was rape decriminalized? When was sex abuse of a minor decriminalized?

"So no. It’s not a far reach from pot to meth and heroin."
Yes, it absolutely is. One has medical benefits and is not life destroying, the others are life destroying.

"Oh. And don’t forget. These sick-o groups are after our children."
Oh please. I am concerned for our children just as much as anybody with all of the things going on in our country right now, but how are marijuana smokers sickos? And how are they after our children? Prop 19 would make the legal age to purchase cannabis 21. Are 21 year olds children? This will take control of marijuana away from the dealers and put it into the hands of a business that is regulated under state law.

“It’s a slippery slope. Frog in a pot of water”

[EDIT: Funny, I started typing the below before getting to your actual post. We were thinking exactly alike.]

Much like unilateral divorce was. We were promised divorce rates wouldn’t rise substantially. And you can bet that the weakening of marriage and the end of putting family above all else lead to gay marriage. Anyone care to go back in time and poll what percentage of people at that time would think something so depraved as two men marrying would be endorsed by the state and voted in by the foolish and bankrupt electorate?

“It’s a slippery slope.”

Yawn. Logical fallacy.
