What? WHAT the hell can I present that these guys don't shoot down as false because of the source, or because it just can't be true. I posted WELL KNOWN undisputed statistics on drug use from 79 till the 90's and everyone immediately calls it a sham. Must I get stats from Harry Browne himself before they accept it? All that is left for me to push on them is common sense. Common sense tells you that drug use will dramatically rise with legalization, and all the posters here know that. They just don't like to admit it because that would hurt their cause.
I don't call names and most of whome a post to I have a friendly relationship with, some I don't (tpaine is pretty much it). Some of my best friends on FR are pro-drug legalization.
Common sense tells YOU ... that's true. It may or not tell me.
If you wish to know my position ... it is that the WOD isn't working. The medicine is worse than the cure. You don't kill the patient to cure the disease. So, I believe you agree to this point ??? Am I right ??? If so, then what do we do to fix the problem ??? I'm asking you what you think, I'm have no hidden agenda in asking I really want to know if you were king today how would YOU solve this problem?
I was lurking whilst you were fighting with Free_tally clamper1797 armitage and tpaine. I hope they are all your friends. Flame wars CAN be brutal
