Cocaine is OK for people to ingest. It should be available anywhere, anytime for anyone.

Until it turns YOUR teenager into a $20 working girl.

Eric, you're a white trash, East Texas boy, as am I. What happened when they changed fire-huntin (hunting game at night with a light... for my northern brethren) from a $50 fine to prison time, overnight?

spot lighting sure didn't pick up....

That post should be banned. FLOTUS will be coming to see you.

Ya didn't get thrown in the pokey didja? Ya know I'd come bust you out.

Spot lightin and junk food.... This has taken a turn for the better fer shoor.

Well, we never lit the woods up...that is, until about 5 years ago and now we do it all the time. Hogs!

Junk food gets a bad rap.

You really need to let me know when you come back this way.

I'll be down the end of next month to Broaddus for a 94th birthday party. I'll letcha know when for sure, it might be a mad dash of a trip but I could be talked into something...

I scheduled a week off around the last weekend in March. It's shift change-I took 2 for 8.

Demand drives this clusterphuck. If it is completely ignored, or at the very most, the current token wrist slapping joke, it will continue to be an exercise in futility. Supply will always find a way to the demand. Always. That couldn't be more clear.

Spend the billions being wasted currently, instead, only on crimes comitted against others. Dipschidts want to burn their brains on drugs, have at it. (No free medical either..) When a crime against someone else happens stop the revolving prison doors that serve as training grounds for lifetime criminals.

A fraction of the billions spent would put up a lot of well guarded tents and no parole, full sentence, rock breaking chain gangs..

Please do. I spend every weekend 30 minutes away.

I can't say that I disagree. Dopers and the ones who commit crimes against others are one and the same.

Yep. The current system has been gamed & the original intent is totally lost. It will take a complete re-tooling that too few are willing to even consider, much less actually do. It creates frustration within and outside of the system, while dirtbags everywhere benefit.

I try to remember that the people who form juries are the same ones who elected Obama.

I got called for jury duty last spring. I lasted about 5 minutes before I was excused.

Juries are formed by people who have no opinions. That's good, many would say, but honestly? Who has no opinion?

People with a vacumn between the ears;

My view, off the cuff, SOC style, is that Nancy Reagan (bless the auld lass) and her famous 'just say no' campaign of the 80s was grossly underrated. I think it was really effective at deterring young folks! Hey look, a snowflake!

Despite the advertisement for the wonders and greatness of socialized medicine that was woven into the post, I agree.



People who want a "war" on drugs should pay for it. Pull all public funding for every aspect of the foul thing, enforcement efforts, court and lawyer costs, incarceration costs, everything. Cut the public funding 100% and see how far they get on donations. The "war" would be over in 2 weeks.

Count up the billions and billions spent, then add the billions and billions leaving the country only to support 3rd world drug lords and corrupt government officials of their countries, and we'd be absolutely amazed at the funding available to fix roads and other needed services.

The drug war is NOT a needed "service". It's a sign of insanity if you ask me. It don't add up no matter how you look at it. I'd bet a dollar to a day old donut every increase in funding for the "war" is paralleled by an indentical increase in profits for the black marketeers.

It's time to end the bogus war on drugs. If people want to fight crime the first thing they need do is define the word. It was not a crime before the legalities passed and it is not one now. Your just spinning your wheels. It's an unaffordable and unsustainable waste of money and manpower. And there's no excuse for it. America needs productivity now more than ever. All government positions that don't actually produce, need axed. Producing the abysmally poor results the drug war has doesn't qualify as production. Nothing useful has ever or will ever come of it. 100% waste and Zero gain.

Did anyone ask him?
