What's dumb is sending teens a mixed message by prohibiting drugs on the one hand while allowing head shops to sell drug paraphenalia on the other.

No, Bobbie, what's DUMB is the notion that somehow government (in THIS country) has the legitimate authority to "allow" or "prohibit" the sale of any product or substance for virtually any reason. If one reads (as I know you have not) the founding documnents of this nation, you would understand that government exists only at the sufferance of the ultimate authority, We, the People. You would ALSO be aware that We, the People, CANNOT give away authority that is NOT OURS TO GIVE. Simple logic will tell you that. I can no more give government the authority to keep you from selling your bongs and hydroponics devices than I can give away the title and deed to YOUR house. Neither is mine to give. All you have to do is keep this logic in mind and it will all become abundantly clear: This miserable excuse for a human being, Welch, is about as wrong as two left shoes. So are you for advocating a continuation of all these wars on Americans.
