Do you think we ban alcohol again and throw people in cages for drinking it?

Taking a shot of whisky is not the same as a shot of heroin. There is a difference from having a drink to drinking the whole bottle. There is not a difference between a shot of heroin and another shot of heroin.

You are trying to say individuals should be free to do drugs no matter the drugs. End incarceration for drugs. The simple fact is that drugs have an effect on others around the users whether it be their kids, family and friends. As well as victims to crimes because these individuals are not in there right mind because they are under the influence.

Let me ask you this: Do you really believe that is why we elect officials? Could you provide an example of any government official who has directly positively impacted your life and how so?

Government hasn't been for the people in a long time. It's a self-enriching circle jerk in which the citizens of the country are the pivot...

if you live alone and have no kids, and support yourself, why shouldn't someone be allowed to use any substance freely in the privacy of their own home? What about freedom in Murcia?

You trust the American public to leave addictive substances and their side affects in their 4 walls?

People gonna be smoking bath salts and eating folks again

I believe this is the reason we should elect officials.

I also believe that most elected officials are corrupt and only in it for themselves. I believe that states should and should have years ago stepped in to call a Constitutional Convention to implement term limits for representatives, disallow lobbying, Super Pacs an corporations from making political contributions. This would be a start to ward out corruption within the government.

Hamden is still as white as it was when founded by German immigrants working the mills off the Jones Falls a hundred years ago. That is child's play. It's been through gentrification for almost 20 years now, too. The hookers and drug dealers there are whiter than Mitt Romney.

You can play Connect Four and Hungry Hungry Hippos on Addison with Baltimore anecdotes, but don't play with me boy.



White people in D.C. don't need street corners and parking garages. They do it big on Cap Hill in $3,000 suits tailored by Brooks Brothers.

You guys have hit the participation ribbon/generation cupcake quota for the year. Joke is played. Sooooooo plaaaaaaayed.

I wasn't talking about fearing for my life in Hampden silly goose. I was talking about Greenmount.

Your question is idiotic and unrealistic, and does not deserve a reply.

George Bush Jr. once sent me a check for $200 (economic stimulus). I used it to buy weed from a black guy.

Typical deflection from someone without substance.

[babyfaceposey]

That is your hypothetical to allow for illegal drug use in America. Just a What if question. What if there was unicorns and gold at the end of a rainbow? Would it be a glorious world for all to live in? Drugs are illegal for a reason, sorry you're so narrow minded that you can not use common sense to see this and continue to fight the fight believing in white privilege. Like a said your question is idiotic and unrealistic.

well, we allow use of alcohol at home and in specific public establishments. Why not weed? Why not other drugs, under the same rules? Drive or do these things in public where it isn't allowed, get popped by johnny law.


He's got a good point. How do you draw the line at alcohol and tobacco but not the other ones? Alcohol and Tobacco can be quite addictive and detrimental to your health...

More deflection and no substance. You say drugs are illegal for a reason but then don't give a reason. What's the reason? You type so much but say so little. Sad!

Common sense trumps emotional liberalism.

Emotional liberalism?

What is this even supposed to mean, in the context of Addison's argument? How is he making an argument based on emotion, rather than common sense?

I don't support legalizing most drugs, but weed is a no brainer.

No brainer meaning it burns the brain cells and impairs the users brain?

So you too, based on this logic then, are for banning alcohol I presume?

Common sense. The one thing you can't teach. Good luck in life.

[awz50]

If I was dealer of weed I would be called a drug dealer

If a white person did it, they are a hippie/stoner.

Y'all whack .

This is a joke. Take it as a joke.
