Why are you afraid to give a straight answer to a simple question?

I'm "afraid" of very little, especially hypothetical questions. I AM afraid of what would happen to the US if currently illegal drugs were legalized though.

Answering hypothetical questions is pointless, and I have better things to do with my time than to answer them. Sorry if that bothers you.

I do have a possible solution to your problem though. You could always pay my ISP bill ($9.95) and my consulting fee ($150 an hour, 3 hour minimum) for a period of one month, and I would be happy to answer all the hypothetical questions you want, for up to 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, weekends off, and I take a 2-hour lunch break. I accept cash, cashier's checks, or PayPal.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Mary Houghton argued that Chong grew wealthy glamorizing drug use and trivializing law enforcement in his films

Gov. Schwarzenegger glamorized violence in many films---I guess Mary will be going after him next.

I also find it very telling that you (righfully) support Rosa Parks' law breaking in support of her Constitutional civil rights not to be discriminated against, yet you do not support people breaking the law in support of their civil rights to keep and bear arms.

Stop putting words into my mouth. I did not say that I do not support civil disobedience in support of the Second Amendment.

I know that lawyers give to political campaigns. I didn't know that gangs gave financial donations too.

The gangs give too, they just give lower down on the food chain. Local officials and law enforcement are more their style.

This same dude refused to answer whether he agreed with Arnold or McClintock more on the issues just yesterday.

I want an answer to ONE question---and in the time you've spent online squirming away from answering it, you could have answered half a dozen.

Never mind---you've already made clear what your answer would be if you had the courage to give it.

I did not "equate" them

You most certainly did, by inference and by your continued, voluminous posts on FreeRepublic advocating the legalization of currently illegal drugs.

My mistake. I must have interpereted your comment wrong. You're actually somewhat on my good side today ever since you shot down Jihad Girl's playing of the race card yesterday.

To equate the right to vote and to not be discriminated against because of one's skin color with wanting the right to ingest illegal drugs is shameful.

I did not "equate" them

You most certainly did, by inference and by your continued, voluminous posts on FreeRepublic advocating the legalization of currently illegal drugs.

What transparent rubbish---none of your bluster supports your dimwitted claim.

I make the same offer to you as I did to MrLeRoy. See the last paragraph of my Post 141.

Obviously. Your statement is accepted.

You're actually somewhat on my good side today ever since you shot down Jihad Girl's playing of the race card yesterday.

It is considered cowardly to refer to a poster without pinging them to the post. I've corrected the situation though - do not bother to thank me.

Personal attack and name-calling noted. You've lost.

I realize that and usually respect that. However CJ has requested I put her on my "do not ping" list, and I have obliged.

your dimwitted claim.

Personal attack and name-calling noted.

Wrong---I called your claim, not you, "dimwitted." Attempt to play the victim noted.

In the time you've spent online squirming away from answering that question, you could have answered half a dozen.

In the years you've been on FreeRepublic advocating the legalization of dangerous, illegal drugs, you could have changed your mind and helped protect the public health.

Never mind---you've already made clear what your answer would be if you had the minimal courage to give it.

Your opinion about public health is also crystal-clear from the content and number of your posts.

Then I retract my insinuation.

"Dimwitted" is a perjorative. You called my claim "dimwitted." Therefore, you name-called. Deal.
