When I was a kid in this town, pot was everywhere, and nobody seemed to care.  Kids smoked it behind the cafeteria @ Mohonasen, in the woods behind the school (by the power lines), after school, whenever.  It was seemingly everywhere. Hell, my uncles used to smoke whatever they could find.  I'm not gonna say nobody gave a damn, but it sure wasn't in the news like it is today.  Yet, today - try finding it in town, it's harder than you may think.  (And if you find some, let me know!)

I remember when I was in Mohn Junior High, I found a brown paper bag in the hallway near a side/back entrance - with a bunch of it inside.  Nobody said nuthin!

Today, people use it for medical purposes, recretation - and we've got a govt that won't consider legalizing it, yet will continue to allow regular tobacco - taxing the hell out of it and making a profit windfall for NYS.  Something's REALLY wrong with that.

Either legalize MJ or outlaw tobacco ...

Using Box a Rox logic, you must support the drug cartels and drug dealers.

Well no, America is at "war" with drugs, so those people that sell drugs are the enemy.  If you point out how unsuccessful the war on drugs is, by box logic you are supporting drug dealers.  Any opposition to government policy is treason, and you will be labeled a sympathizer for the "enemy".  In this instance the enemy is drugs.

BTW, using box's logic I'm an Al Qaeda sympathizer because I question the policy of drone attacks especially againt U.S. citizen.

How dare you speak of such treason against the messiah and his policies, I see you used one of the banned words on the Internet in your post, you have now given up your right to privacy and will now be put on watch from here on out.

Drug war supporters support cartels and gangster dealers.

Legalization would put gangsters and drug lords out of business.

We would be able to afford to pay police their pensions and salaries.

Portugal legalized all drugs in 2000.

They have since closed over 10% of their prisons.

Prohibition supported gangsters and cartels as well.

Legalization ended the gang wars.

The police back then opposed legalization as well since they profited well from it being a crime, just as they do today.

Quoted from Libertarian4life


"Under Mr. Cuomo’s proposal, the state would downgrade the possession of 25 grams or less of marijuana in public view from a misdemeanor to a violation, with a maximum fine of $100 for first-time drug offenders. It is already a violation to possess that amount without putting it into public view. "



but you'll lose your access to government healthcare....without a script that is......like drug testing for welfare recipients....

let's be very careful about the invasion.....

the 'war on drugs' was a hoax....because the system created a new drug front and it's 'tanks' are called DIAGNOSIS'.......

the devil is in the details


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
