3. That should make American conservatives want to legalize it.

After all, they hate everything the UN stands for.

25. Drug cartels are now funding the UN since we don't pay what we're supposed to.

9. What goes on in the U.S. stays in the U.S. - Tough shit U.N.







As long as we don't export, what the heck.

We did a lot of "Respect for Women" seminars at work in the U.S.
which were quite successful but when we went to the U.K. to
promote the seminars they didn't see the need because they had
no problems over there.

If we are limited in our country's evolution by less progressive
countries we'll be living in the dark ages for hundreds of years to come.

Our mental evolution takes long enough as it is. Next we'll have to listen
to the middle-east tell us that we can't wear sleeveless t-shirts over here!

Aren't we the ones who are supposed to set an example for the rest of the world?
 They can evolve with us or choose not - but they can't tell us how to vote and
what laws we decide to change.

14. international law

Yeah, we've signed treaties that require us to prosecute torture and war-crimes cases as well.
 
Doesn't seem like we pay any attention to those "quaint" old documents.

22. I wouldn't be a bit surprised

to find out that The International Narcotics Control Board is influenced by criminal organizations that profit heavily from marijuana being illegal.

Everything is a ****ing conspiracy when reality refuses to play along with your DUmbass.

44. Perhaps a consideration of the Preamble of the Declaration of Independence will help:

...Having served its original purpose in announcing independence, the text of the Declaration was initially ignored after the American Revolution. Since then, it has come to be considered a major statement on human rights, particularly its second sentence:
 
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Declaration_of_Independence#Annotated_text_of_the_Declaration
 
The Declaration of Independence is not the United States Constitution, which was written years after it, nor did it list of treaties, but the Conclusion of the Declaration specifically does allow contracting alliances....
 
Americans and many people of the world have been inspired by that statement in their desire to enlarge human rights. How treaties will be enforced or not enforced, can certainly be argued. The UN charter appears to be more of a suggestion for standards of behavior voluntarily carried out and only the treaty states can decide. There may be actions that can be acted upon, but only with a majority agreeing to take action. I don't know what action the UN could take against the USA for not going along with them:
 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty#Role_of_the_United_Nations

Some Americans will define recreational drug use as part of their unalienable Right to the pursuit of Happiness. That's the logic here, no matter what anyone says about drug use, medicinal or recreational.
 
BTW, I do not partake nor do I plan on doing so. I can't afford recreation. I voted for legalization since I've had engrained in me since childhood the concepts listed above that allows for individuals to live in diverse ways.
 
But I don't agree with any pursuit of Happiness that harms others or takes away their unalienable Right to their pursuit of Happiness, such as expecting others to deal with any person's crazymaking, abuse, smoke or whatever from what they want to do.

pursuit of happiness = stoned

I know. It's hilarious. They've been spewing UN nonsense for what? 12 years now? Sing the UN's praises. The only thing better than the UN was homosexual sex and murdering babies. Now all of a sudden the UN is evil. Way to stay consistently inconsistent DU.

Did the UN say the same thing about the drug laws in Denmark?
You see, I don't care you how feel.  I really don't.  More importantly, neither does anyone else.  Only about 200 people on a planet of 7 billion actually care about your feelings, and that's if you're lucky.  The sooner you grasp this lesson, the better off you will be.  And since almost no one gives a damn what you do, say, think, or feel, appealing to your feelings when you encounter differences of opinion is not only illogical, but useless.

Almost half the members of the U.N. have laws making homo behavior criminal, and five of them call for the death penalty.
But don't the DUmmies love muzzie savages as much as they do the U.N.?

It must suck having to change who you hate every time the wind blows.

Conservatism is so much simpler.

Constitution = good
Small Government = good
Murder (including unborn children) = bad
Ronald Reagan = good

Wow, that was so easy...

I couldn't even do one for you guys, because it changes daily.

Constitution = only parts of it good, depending on issue of the day
Small Government = never heard of it
Killing babies = check
Ronald Reagan = devil
KKK = was good, but isn't anymore
Segregation = Rocked before we figured out block voting rocks
UN = was good, but now they want our drugs
Minorities = only good if they vote for Democrats

I could go on.
