Then why do people get all bent out of shape when people stop supporting the NRA?

The NRA should not be a necessity to protect our constitutional rights.

The war on drug is an absolute joke. The DEA only catches and confiscates 1.5% of drugs coming into America.


No argument there. The reality is there is no war. If there was a war on drugs, we would control our borders. We wouldn't send billions of taxpayer dollars in aid, or do billions of dollars in trade to countries who import death to our citizens. If it was a war, we'd napalm the poppy fields and coca plants, and charge the countries that harbor them for doing it.

Making them illegal is the wrong deterrant. Legalize them, and develop more education in schools about them. Education of their harm is the most effective deterrent.


I disagree. There are too many educated heroin, coke, and even meth addicts for that to be the case. These drugs take over people's lives, becoming the most important thing in it.

But then they become society's responsibility. Their children become society's responsibility.

I do not care to bargain with my rights in any fashion, once you do it's only a matter of time before you get a raw deal.

Be fine with it if you leave addicts in the street puking themselves to death and clear out the bodies with street sweepers. Same with alcoholics. Same with suicide survivors.

Execute on sight blackmarket drug and gun dealers.

No public expenditure on self-destructive activities - allow Darwinisn weed those traits out of the DNA going forward.

If private organizations want to spend money on charity for self-abuses, so be it.

Just wondering if some people are still anti-legalization to the point where they'd risk something important to them.



Honestly, maybe I'm way off on this..........but I suspect that the more rabid one is about 2nd Amendment rights, the more likely they are to support drug legalization or at least massive reduction in the drug war.

I don't think we're the problem on that one.

I don't think you're really getting the point of this

We're going for more freedom. Not a Draconian murdering government.

So if someone with children has a problem with drugs or alcohol your preference would be that they die instead of getting treatment?

Am I reading this right?

Shouldn't have taxpayer funded healthcare anyway for the general population (just for children and elderly)

Sure they can get treatment. As long as I'm not paying for it.

Indeed you are. I shouldn't be financially responsible for someone's shitty life choices.

Pretty much - if they can afford treatment let them pay for it.

If they cannot afford treatment, they don't need to be raising children anyway.

At some point crack/meth heads are going to get scooped up by LEO's and spend some time in county and have to get clean. If you give them unlimited dope they will eventually kill themselves with it.
