Gee what a surprise 100% for.  :-)
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Never, never say that you're having a pot luck dinner. DUmmies will flock around worse than flies.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I get a kick out of the "medical reasons" poll. Medical reasons? Really? I was told it does nothing for medical reasons.
You get much more toxins from it than "medical" help. Keep on smokin' it and being more a DUmmy though. That's EXACTLY the plan of the lord nothing and Soros. They want a nation of idiots to take over.

One of the whole problems with the "war on drugs" is the grossly excessive powers the federal government has received to fight it. Like search and seizure powers.

I know - "don't do the crime and won't do the time" but it's still a bad precedent to establish.

We've tried harsher penalties and yet the jails still fill with low level drug offenders.

We've tried more relaxed penalties and the jails still fill with low level drug offenders.

I don't pretend to have a solution but we clearly aren't doing something right and the amount of treasure being blown on the whole thing is disgusting.

You look at the issue from the Libertarian standpoint.

They look at the issue from the Hedonistic standpoint.
Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

How about this. You get legalized pot on the left and we get fully automatic weapons to deal with all the crime ?

Legal?  Only if we are going to have implied-consent blood/urine test laws on top of breath testing (Turn down the test, lose your license).  I don't really want to go there.

I personally think actually legalizing it, as opposed to just reducing it to a low-level infraction rather than a serious offense, is one step too far, and if it is legalized, a couple of years down the road productivity for an awful lot of the workforce is going to look like we hired a bunch of French Teamsters who immediately went on a work slow-down and/or got Alzheimer's, then started phoning every sandwich and pizza delivery joint within driving range.

I just checked this thread. I wonder who the three people are that voted "never" so far? Earlier today, they were all upset that Willie Nelson had been busted for pot possession and it stirred up the hive.

Actually RedQueen is an entirely different DUmmy, she used to use a thumbnail of a fairly attractive redhead for an avatar which may possibly have been her.  She was rather intelligent but a pretty seriously-militant Leftie, the sort you can imagine turning in a family member for counterrevolutionary thought.  I haven't seen her post in a long time, but then again I mostly read DU via the radioactive material-handling waldoes of this site anymore, so she may still be active.
