Kickback on a 12 inch chop saw is the worst.
BTW... The Left uses the same arguments you did about "lethality" and modern firearms. They are equally as wrong.
“Sorry, you’re being inconsistent. If it’s not an enumerated power than it’s reserved to the states...at least that’s the opinion of leftist cause supporting conservatives.”
One can easily assert it is an enumerated power since the Constitution does not state when life begins. If one believes life begins at conception, then there is no question the fetus is entitled to protection against loss of life without due process. I have no idea what you mean by “leftist cause supporting conservatives.”
“Moral relatively. This is exactly the attitude that leftists pushed to get a destructive behavior mainstream. And it worked.”
Bottom line, I believe in free speech. You happen to believe pornography is destructive even though there is no evidence to prove that. You don’t like it and you think it is immoral, which is perfectly legitimate, but where do you get the right to decide what other people should read and view? In any case, I come back to my argument, unless you can define exactly where the line is between what is pornography and what is not pornography I’d rather not have you determining what I am entitled to read based on what you think is decent. None of you people who want to ban pornography are ever willing to discuss where you think the limit should be. Should it be any nudity as in Playboy, graphic sex acts, simulated sex acts, provocative nude paintings, or just anything that brings on sexual arousal? Please define it for me.
Looks up a book called “The Good Old Naughty Days”. ;-)
Seems like they should have worked more on strengthening their society than making drugs and prostitution easier to obtain.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes. It is used to treat problems with enlarged veins.
Medicinal cocaine?
Yes. It has several uses, including eye drops for certain conditions.
Yes
Medicinal morphine?
Yes, of course.
Was your point that there aren't such uses, or that there are?
Isn't this some kind of communist tactic? To tear down the founders of America as to make it more palatable to destroy the American values?
Thing is before big government, we had families that progressed from thrift to wealth and then decadence naturally, and they only took themselves down and in a economic Darwin type way, made room for other thrifty moral people to take their place.
No the government is taking us all down. So, it is like Rome.
And also like Rome, yeomen tradesmen like myself are seeing the government as the enemy, and the two parties as but competing hyenas that feed of the flesh of the productive so that they and theirs can get fat.
In short.
The US Government is evil and my enemy.
“I oppose them because they’re harmful to society.”
Many things are harmful to society and among the most harmful are rules that try and protect people from themselves. If I want to sit in my living room and smoke pot and watch porn how in the world does that affect you?
You seem to have bought the leftist propaganda hook, line and sinker. Do you think that's it's likely that IF these are accurate quotes that they were using the plant for smoking? Do you think they were growing and selling it so that they could get people stoned? Or do you think there just might be another explanation?
You forgot to add in abortion. And homosexuality. And orgies. And everything else that a moral society would recognize as wrong.
I want a resurgence of people who not only want their liberty back, but are willing to shoulder the responsibility that goes along with it. In EVERY avenue of their lives. I want people to look first to their own lives and leave their neighbors alone. They keep trying to make hay out of the speck in my eye and I just may set fire to the log in theirs just to see if it gets their attention...
Apparently you didn't read the article. They were moral. They believed that morality and religion would keep these evils at bay. Of course leftists, in a relatively short time, managed to destroy morality in America and take it out of our constitution and our government. With that obstacle removed it was only a matter of time until they convinced so called conservatives that their issues (pot, porn and abortion among others) were hot topic issues that are protected by the constitution. Snort...it's like Dr. Evil has succeeded in a master plan.
That's the way it should be. I sure as hell don't want government doing it.
Logic not allowed.
I don’t have the thick mustache, body type or attire to be an “orgy guy,” or any willing orgie-chicks, but if I did it would be nobody’s business.
lol...hell no we won't go! Fight the power! Tune in, turn on, drop out!
Right on bro! Free love! Cast off the shackles of those repressive morals!
