I could cherry pick a couple tragic situations and make a similar case for alcohol, guns, or whatever. A politician could point to a person physically addicted to alcohol drinking whose life is ruined or a classroom of shot up dead kids, outlaw those things, and I’m sure few here would support that gov’t overreach.

A colleague of mine turned me onto kratom a few years ago. It helped him beat an opiate pill addiction following back surgeries. I dabble in it and find it most useful on Monday mornings if I have Sunday beers to give me a jolt and kill the slight hangover feeling or some afternoons when I’m dragging.

We shouldn’t make responsible users criminals and take our chances with the extreme minority who may have an issue.

I think it’s healthy to consume a variety of news to prevent the echo chamber thing. Not a huge fan of Zakaria but will mention Smerconish on Saturday mornings.

I’m sure I’ll get immediate cries of “libtard,” but the guy really does go to bat for both sides. He lambasted Dems yesterday for not giving Trump credit for things he does well like the border. He always opens up opinions from Twitter and gets some doozies from idiots on both sides.

Amazing that an organization that has ~85-90% of its expenses go to medical costs would incentivize its members to get the known poison vaccine to only push that # higher. They knew what they was doin’ and tHEY wUZ All IN on It!!!!

Yes, knew a guy who started football for Rice in football all four years. He got caught cheating on a final exam the last semester (or quarter) and was prevented from graduating. Zero tolerance for him despite no trouble to that point and four years service as a starting FB.

When you move to an area of the country that the spirit of the Grateful Dead seems to have completely bypassed, you have to do what you have to do. I ain’t converting to bro country, Christian “rock,”or whatever these people listen to around here.
