well a draconian system of punishment, especially for a first offense without any victims, and the ensuing societal scarlet letter of a felony, is kind of a disproportionate price to pay (again, for possessing a natural substance that caused no direct injury to others)


I hate agreeing with yoy

My contention with the WOD is the people saying had drugs been legalized this entire time things would be much better...that is still unknown.


Well in that regard I guess we live in a world of unknowns. I think it's bad Kenedy was assisinated. But can we really say things would be better or worse had he not? I mean it's a bit silly.

So frick it. Leave everything as is. Because who knows.

I doubt they have those numbers but knowing what I know I would venture to say relatively unchanged. But we know the rates of criminality increased.

I know name calling never helps in an argument, but it's seriously scary to me that you seem to have some sort of retardation, and no supervision. Did you poop yourself?


And your questions have been answered MANY times over.

my favorite things about these debates are comments like this. Having never said leave it as is or we should or shouldn't legalize drugs people jump to conclusions.

This is not a debate at this point. It's you saying "but how do we know?" over and over. To be fair there are about 5 discussions going on and I know you are just trying to kill time. So don't act like you have some great sticking point.

And for the record, I don't think you are retarded or that you poop yourself. I do have questions about how Tib-O-Doe's house smells.

Why must your kind always resort to insults?



And how many illegal drugs do you do?

His problems were of his own making. Sorry that he killed himself though.

Seriously I am all for legalization to an extent but i know there will be some repricussions. I simply was playing devils advocate and got some people mad.

I like all the people saying he would have killed himself anyways... the guy had been partaking in coke, weed, pretty much whatever he felt like doing for about 8-9 years, ever since he decided he was an independent person who could make decisions for himself. and all that time had been steadily moving up in the world as an exceptionally productive member of society.

His world came tumbling down as a result of his being made a criminal pariah by our society, not as a result of some addiction-driven psychosis.

Those laws were in place long before he was born. He chose to become the "pariah." But keep on blaming someone else for your friend's stupid decisions.

Society cannot fathom the thought that some people do drugs and it doesn't ruin there life. Unless alcohol is brought up of course, then the white nights swarm to defend their shitty drug.

I said you were being myopic. That's not really an insult. The poop thing was a joke and I apologize.

Not that it's your fricking business, but the only drug I do, legal or otherwise, is caffeine.
