A government big enough to identify and place in prison, each and every user of marijuana is too big for me.

Why do you insist on projecting false assumptions on me? There is no need to put every smoker in prison if you put every supplier in prison. Sure, the way *you* tell it, my ideas look insane and ridiculous, but here's the thing. You aren't accurately presenting my ideas.

You are delusional if you think your fellow voters want that, either.

If my fellow voters thought that gun control would be a good idea they would still be wrong. I do not measure the rightness or wrongness of an idea based on what my "fellow voters" think. The best argument to demonstrate the foolishness of this is to point to the fact that they elected this current idiot twice.

I will say right now, I don't believe in Democracy. Neither did the founders. They felt that the average man was little more than a fool and would enact policies and ideas that would bring us all to ruin. (as we have seen come to pass)

The founders were dead set against democracy which they regarded as "mob rule". They set requirements for the voting franchise which generally required the ownership of land and the payment of taxes.

I can assure you that all of the pot smokers I know aren't paying any taxes, they are sucking on the tax payers right now.

I don't care what the non taxpayers want. They ought not to even be allowed to have a vote and it is in a large part to the fact we let worthless parasites vote that the Democrat party has maintained it's grip on power this last half century.

With 88,000 alcohol related deaths per year, marijuana pales as a national threat.

Do you know what is a "tu quque fallacy"? The fact that alcohol causes thousands of death and much misery ever year does not justify allowing Marijuana to do the same.

Your lack of perspective or intellectual consistency is apparent.

Unless you are willing to present better arguments in support of your position ( I am beginning to doubt you can even understand mine) then it would appear the lack of perspective and intellectual consistency lies with you.

You genuinely do not seem to have contemplated this issue to the extent that is necessary to have a good grasp of the long term and likely consequences of the policies you are advocating.

I’m finished with you. I have to go earn some money to pay taxes on.

And when I get the money, I don’t want to waste it chasing pot smokers.

Don’t you have to work?
