True.
“Courage is the foundation of all other virtues.”
Without courage, there are no other virtues.
Using recreational drugs to escape reality is cowardice. We have become a nation of cowards, bleating about how hard life is and arguing that cowardice is OK.
With respect, unicorn, blow it out your ass. If you think America is a nation of bleating cowards, GO MOVE TO FRANCE WHERE YOU BELONG.
Either that, or stop allowing yourself to be brainwashed and hornswaggled by the MSM when it presents the distorted picture of an America that looks just like the MSM. Go READ at places other than FR, go READ the comments from people at MSM sites like ABC and CBS. Most of them -- like most of us here on FR -- write that they think liberalism and the liberal bias of the MSM, stink.
You are so gullible that you've allowed pop culture and the MSM to reduce YOU to a bleating coward.
You've agreed elsewhere that people who use the legal drug alcohol to escape from reality are likewise cowards. What ought we do about the cowardice of people who use the legal drug alcohol to escape from reality? (Note that criminalizing the cowardice of people who use other drugs to escape from reality does nothing about the cowardice of people who use the legal drug alcohol to escape from reality.)
