"Hey, everyone comes into my bar wanting to use a syringe to shoot beer into their mouths with, and who am I to think otherwise? How dare you all be so judgmental about other people's actions? Maybe they have diabetes and their doctors are all playing golf or something. That'll be a buck, Bud."

their consumption is in no way inherently immoral

How is the consumption of, say, marijuana inherently immoral in a way that the consumption of alcohol is not?

Muslims and some Baptists would indeed say that alcohol consumption is "immoral", and indeed in some of the more benighted parts of America there are "dry counties" for this reason.

What I find odd is that someone can claim that using a product in its natural form is "immoral".

Guess again ... I have at least three friends that roll their own tobacco and don't smoke pot

[clamper1797]

Oh and you are VERY likely to find many "roachclips" alligator clips with burnt ends in my house. The fact that I'm an electrical engineer who builds things in my home lab doesn't have anything to do with them ... I'm sure Ms. frigging Cleo

"The Head Shop owners need to be given a bar of soap and sprayed down with a fire hose."
"Then forced to change diapers of drug addled people, and wipe their drool."

You have issues, evidently.

So, didja get caught shop-lifting a porno comic by some sleazeball shopkeeper? Ha ha!

In any event, once your Party is in full control, these filthy little smut and dope peddlers can be crushed like the vermin they are! Ein volk! Ein Reich!...etc.

[Just another Joe]

Can you really imagine this being used for smoking tobacco? Nevertheless, it is by some people.
I'm not condoning the use of it for purposes other than smoking tobacco but it may have legal uses also.

I prefer hemostats, myself.

"or eliminate dandelions---can't be done."

True, but every year I spend money on weed killer. Makes the place look nice. And if everyone did it, there would be no more seeds to drift over into my yard.

Maybe one day, huh?

[jayef]

I can't imagine why you should care what anyone burns in this.

"What I find odd is that someone can claim that using a product in its natural form is "immoral"."

I think Cain killed Abel with a rock. Can't get any more natural than a rock, yet hardly a "moral" act.

[vin-one]

so, CJ

You want to legislate morality huh,
consumption is in no way inherently immoral

where do you draw the line, dancing, premarital sex,
you are way over the line..... take two asprin and come back when you can keep your nose out of my business....

Pot smoking of course lacks victims, unless you count the plant that gets picked. >:)

Seriously, we all have to make judgments in the world, and we all impose our values upon each other. It doesn't take a Great Karnak to understand intent, or sit on a jury, or try a case, or make a judgment

This law addresses indent before a crime is committed. That my friend is mindreading.

[CollegeRepublican]

In my "high" school it was ceramics class that everyone made some interesting "pottery". :)

[robertpaulsen]

So pornography is moral? Prostitution is moral? All gambling is moral? Suicide certainly would be moral. Polygamy, sodomy, gay marriage, and of course, drugs.

Wow, what an ugly world you live in. Count me out.

This is why you can't buy a decent bong anymore for under $40.

I work with FIMO clay, cheap, bakes hard in the oven, and used by dopers the world over for making cool things. Although I usually don't make pipes with it :)
