Old Salt Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Here we go, again. My neighbor's wife beat him over the head with a rolling pin so we should outlaw rolling pins? Quote
phreakwars Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 The first thing I read was A gun control expert says the administration can help control drug violence in Mexico by enforcing already existing laws. Didn't see anything about wanting to ban anything. . . Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars
Old Salt Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Nope, not yet. <pullling knee back from knee-jerk reaction> But there will be attempts. Federal officials say about 90 percent of guns seized in Mexican organized crimes came from the U.S. Quote

Chi Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 The solution is less government; end the drug war. How does less government actually achieve that?? Quote
hugo Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 How does less government actually achieve that?? Make drug sales just like alcohol sales. Takes a lot less government than building prisons and hiring law officers and crowding our court system. Don't see the BUdweiser and Miller people shooting each other.

phreakwars Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I agree, legalize the drugs... you'll get your first time thrill seekers which will increase the demand at first, but it will all die down like alcohol did but be less of a problem. . . Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars
hugo Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 But you see an awful lot of their "users" beating the sh!t out of each other on a Friday or Saturday night. Drunks tend to be rowdier than stoners.

ImWithStupid Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Drunks tend to be rowdier than stoners. Unless the ho ate the last of the Doritos. Then the bitch has a beatin' coming. Quote
hugo Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I am beginning to think it would be in Mexico and Columbia's best interest to legalize drugs regardless of what the US thinks about it.

Don't see the BUdweiser and Miller people shooting each other. That's not less government, just different. It would still take a lot of government involvement to regulate those drugs, tax them, etc. Quote
Chi Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Drunks tend to be rowdier than stoners. Maybe just pot, but not the harder stuff. Try talking some sense to some wacko high as a kite hallucinating some crazy attacking someone. Also, I don't believe drugs like meth should ever be legalized, that's some evil, nasty stuff right there: Faces of Meth | Meth Photos | Effects of Meth Quote
Ahhlee Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I am SO for legalizing drugs and prostitution. Tax the hell out of it, too! Our national deficit would be gone in a year! Quote

Ahhlee Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I'm for that as well within limits. I think it needs to be in a controlled environment as well.....Amsterdam style. For the record, I'd REALLY like to go to Amsterdam. Haha! Quote
Chi Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 There ya go - Yahoo! - Oregon is considering growing, legalizing and taxing marijuana. I think alcohol is a lot worse than marijuana. Quote
Ahhlee Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Need a work visa? Sure!!!! There ya go - Yahoo! - Oregon is considering growing, legalizing and taxing marijuana. I think alcohol is a lot worse than marijuana. Sure!!!! Amsterdam or Oregon - see you this fall! 1 Quote
