You were talking about cracking down on a now-illegal substance. I asked whether you think the substance should be illegal. So? What is your opinion on the matter?

I think in terms of enforcing the law, higher priority should be given to more dangerous crime. That's not to say law shouldn't be enforced. It's more a question of resource allocation.

The question of enforcement and legality are directly related. If your goal is to decrease the occurance of certain things, there are better alternatives to prohibition. If a law's effects are damaging to society and a waste of government resources, I agree with not enforcing the law in order to bring about a change in it.

There I answered your question... Now answer mine please. Should marijuana be illegal or not?

A step in the right direction. Now they need to legalize possession, consumption, and growing of all of the other drugs out there.

Oh course, Ashcroft and co. are talking about stepping up border security in case this new law passes in Ottawa.

Terrorism is one thing, but if you legalize pot, you're damned right we're gonna tighten up the border!


Where the **** are our priorities? Not only would this border crackdown be ass-backwards, it would also cripple border regions that rely on international trade, i.e. Detroit, Buffalo, Seattle...

When Nixon started his drug war, they tried increasing border inspections and within a few days the lines of traffic at the border were miles long. What's funny about Ashcroft and the feds is that they are threatening border delays over this but not because of 9/11. What a bunch of idiots!

Bullshit. Ask Doc Strangelove how many times he's seen people come through his hospital all ****ed up because of pot.

The benevolent pot smoker sitting on the couch and not hurting anybody is the biggest ****ing myth.

Hey but if you pot smoking losers want to convince yourselves it's all harmless by all means go ahead and **** up your lives. You'd better have insurance because I'll be DAMNED if I'm going to pay for your ****ing hospital bills.

Ah, I get it. So you want to put people in cages so you don't have to worry about paying for their health. Good to see your pretense about actually caring for drug abusers gone.

BTW, you forgot to include a spiel about how using drugs causes terror.
