This should not be a big deal, legalize it as per Ron Paul and we need the tax revenue to pay reduce deficits: Q: In your 1988 campaign you said, “All drugs should be decriminalized. Drugs should be distributed by any adult to other adults. There should be no controls on production, supply or purchase for adults.” Is that still your position? A: Yeah. It’s sort of like alcohol. Alcohol’s a deadly drug, kills more people than anything else. And today the absurdity on this war on drugs has just been horrible. Now the federal government takes over and overrules states where state laws permit medicinal marijuana 1 for people dying of cancer. The federal government goes in and arrests these people, put them in prison with mandatory sentences. This war on drugs is totally out of control. If you want to regulate cigarettes and alcohol and drugs, it should be at the state level. That’s where I stand on it. The federal government has no prerogatives on this. http://www.ontheissues.org/tx/Ron_Paul_Drugs.htm First U.S. marijuana cafe opens in Portland \| Reuters http://www.reuters.com/article/wtMostRead/idUSTRE5AD06O20091114

me too. With free handouts on election day so the morons who support legalization of drugs don't show up at the polls and continue to fuck the rest of us up.

I do not even know what that means. I am interested in attempting to comprehend what you are trying to say. Could you please restructure your comments in a more understandable fashion? Are you implying if marijuana is legalized people will go to polls and inject others with drugs? Are you implying pot smokers will have sex with people in line at the polls? Are you implying drug users will come out to beat people up? I am not sure what you mean, fuck the rest of us up? How have pot smokers fucked anyone up? Are you a recovering addict? Do you have anything to support such a claim?

Do you have anything to support such a claim? I detect cynicism. Ask a police officer if he has ever been assaulted by someone on marijuana. You probably will not have one officer claim to have been assaulted. They have however been offered a lot of cookies, brownies etc. Watch out for the brownies. Is wilbeurdaddy wrong? Yes, but is that anything new? Now ask a cop if he/she has been assaulted by anyone on booze and get ready for the stories of mayhem. So we legalize booze and outlaw pot. Why? Because those financing pot are walking in suits down the streets of our cities and in the halls of justice and make fortunes on pot's illegality. The profit motive at its best.

I've voted stoned. I've hit the bong right before going to the polls. If any party gave out free weed on election day hands down that party would win.

Intelligence is not a defense against the chemical dependencies that all drugs including pot can lead to.

Or we could hand out information on how marijuana helps patients going through chemotherapy. I mean... unless you are pro-making little old ladies who have to take poisons into their bodies on a regular basis have one less pain control option. And oh the poor kids who have to spend their childhoods in hospital beds. Or fuck... just anyone unlucky enough to have a serious and painful medical condition. Cause... yeah... let's give 'em really addictive pills that are easy to abuse and screw with your body as opposed to something whose biggest risk is lung cancer, the same problem with a legal substance. Oh the logic...

You know you can get get high off the duster cans to clean your keyboard? It's really addictive and fucks with your brain. Why don't you go protest that too?

That's great. I love this part "Members pay $25 per month to use the 100-person capacity cafe. They don't buy marijuana, but get it free over the counter from "budtenders". Open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., it serves food but has no liquor license." I wonder what the pay scale for a budtender is? For all that you do, this bud's for you.

Then maybe we should also think about all those commercials and advertisements for legal drugs that we are bombarded with on a daily basis. Or is that just a fine example of capitalism?

AquaticSub -> RE: First U.S. marijuana cafe opens in Portland \| Reuters (11/15/2009 4:59:19 PM)
Like spray paint and industrial glues. You can do some serious damage to yourself getting high off those. Those totally need to be taken off the shelves. I mean, you just can't trust adults with anything these days.
