Indeed, and bump for good info. Too bad it rolls off Drug Warriors' shoulders like water off a duck...

Being drunk or using pot and other drugs have certain things in common, MOSTLY SURROUNDING CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR.
Violent crime, death, poor job performance or being dangerous on the job can all be reduced greatly by not using the drugs we call illegal now.
I wouldn't ever knowingly hire a pothead, alcoholic or thug. If I found out about an employee being drunk or on non-prescribed drugs of note, I'd fire their butt.
No employer needs the liability to his or her assets and no civilization needs to promote that kind of loser behavior either.
Christianity can also be said to have started poorly because man here killed the Son of God by your argument to me. Yet Christianity has grown.
In much the same way, despite any blemishes you find with the beginnings of drug enforcement, it is needed.
Perhaps as long as their are Libertarians who want their illegal drugs, there will always be an agency to lock them and others up who use!

Have a great day.

Sounds like New Mexico's second term governor is a loser since he can't get the legislature or people to keep the drunks in jail.
Rather than do that he would like to open another vice!
TOTAL LOSER!

I don't know about traumatic memories, but I know for certain that the good weed eases just plain memories....or is that erases?

...I forget ;o)

Neil come see this masterpiece of lucid thought and comprehension. See how he deftly avoids answering the specific questions posed so he can vent his vitriol once more... It's our one and only (And thank God for that) CA Guy!

I wasn't disappointed to see that our very own CA Guy decided to duck the question I asked him, a very specific one. I knew you were right on, heads, but now it's out for all to see and learn: Drug Warriors do not answer questions based on fact and reason and truth. They cannot admit that their position is fatally flawed and utterly untenable. Poor guys... I could almost pity them, but only almost.

Constitution: 1 more, drug warriors: Still a strong zero.

I am most impressed(not) by the argument in #82 that like the Drug War, Christianity got off on the wrong foot by crucifying Jesus, and look at how well the Church has done since then! So we can just chalk that crucifiction incident up to a combo learning experience/initiation ceremony.

But now everything's cool, so cut the murderers some slack. You go, Judas! Not so lol! Sad, really.

Sick, the whole mindset is sick, socialism is a perverse, sick body of ideas.

Luckily, it has no future. ;^)
