Even when I was a drug warrior, I could come up with better arguments against the drug war then calling everyone dopeheads.

Consider the source my friend..it's just Illbay, one of our local village idiots. He has no real opinions of his own, only says things to get a rise out of people. The real problem are the "law and order at all costs" FReepers who actually feel that way. To them, anyone who does drugs deserves to die, along with their families and friends..and hey, if other innocent people get accidentally killed along the way, it's the fault of the evil drug users, not the perfect government gestapo who can do no wrong.

2. The tiny number of people here are far less than died in boating accidents last year. But you don't hear anyone calling for the banning of pleasure boating, because the upside FAR outweighs the downside.

Equating boating accidents with homicide at the hands of government agents?

Sheesh!

Have you ever met drug agents? Do you know anything about them at all?

You simply don't approve of (some) drug use and advocate government deadly force to prevent others from doing that which you don't approve.

There, for all to see, fellow FReepers, is a typical attitude found among the dope-lovin' crowd. They see LE as a threat, because their lives revolve around a habit so dire, so difficult for them to overcome, that they have to warp reality in order to accomodate it.

Funny, we must be special kind of dopers who enjoy spending our free time online debating...most of us are either in school or have jobs..and if we are losers, we can blame the weed...what's your excuse?

They probably made it up. yea, that's it. Well, even if they didn't, it's not that many people and no one I care about so it's no big deal.

Sheesh. What rock do you guys crawl out from under?

They see LE as a threat,...

Negative, I have several cousins that are Sheriff's deputies in the parish (county) I live in, and they share my opinion about marijuana being illegal, that it shouldn't.

Dopers are thorough losers...

Ah, yes, coming from another blank profile wonder. What exactly have you done for this country that allows you to even have an opinion? I bet nothing, no military service, and apparently no Law Enforcement service. Just another bitter bastard trying to cut people down to satisfy some sick desire to make yourself feel good.

Hi there, Illbay - good to see you've stopped beating your wife long enough to join the discussion. Are you drunk yet?

Wow, this whole "making unfounded accusations and calling names instead of debating the facts" method of posting sure is easier than actually participating in discussions and debating based on knowledge and facts. No wonder you WODdies use it so much...

the rest of us see it clearly

Unfortunately for the "rest of you", this is a conservative forum. That means most of the people reading it will recognize and understand the pupose of dogma when they see it.

And there is a "typical attitude" found among the, "I equate the natural risks of living free with being mowed down by government JBTs" crowd. After all, dyin' is dyin' right?

Modesto 11-Year-Old Was Killed In Drug Raid.

The family of an 11-year-old Modesto boy killed in his home during a narcotics sweep has settled a wrongful-death lawsuit against the city and several of its police officers for $2.55 million. The total is in addition to the $450,000 settlement the family will receive from the federal government for the boy's death.

San Francisco lawyer Arturo J. Gonzalez, who represented the family of Alberto Sepulveda, said Wednesday that the $3 million total settlement is believed to be the largest paid by government for the wrongful death of a child.

It's very sad and in some cases its a crime, when innocent folks are caught up in the drug culture and when law enforcemnt activities cross over the line. But people have to realize, mistakes are made, life isn't fair and sometimes its downright dangerous.

This type of thread is mainly for bleeding heart libertarians, conspiracy theorists and people who support drug legalization. Mostly for people who see a sinister plot behind everything in life.

Actually, I don't drink, and never have.

And further, I consider the repeal of Prohibition to be yet another mistake of the FDR administration.

We'd be better off without alcohol as well as dope.

And it's not like you dope-heads haven't been lying to yourselves and everyone else in your lives for many years now, so what's one more?

Jesus, buddy.
