    I'm so sick of the situations I am faced with.
    I'm even bored of the drugs that I escape with.
    I've been there see, I've had no hope.
    I sat in the stadium watching people walk home.
    I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire

    i didn't say it wasn't an issue...i said it's not an important issue. if you say something is more important than A then A is less important than that thing. it is a statement of comparative importance. is that hard to understand? .
    My initial comment was not clear, so I'll restate it a second time. comparatively, the war in Iraq is more important. Following? ...just because there is a war going on over there, it shouldn't make the issue of the war on drugs any less important. But of course people dying en masse is more important...IMO, there is just another issue to deal with....Got it?
    the problem here at home that needs to be dealt with is the governmental culture present in the white house, the senate, the house, states, counties, and cities...tie in the apathy and you have plenty to deal with. if you take care of those things, then a reasonable discussion on marijuana might make it to the table. until that happens, marijuana is a not important to me...and it shouldn't be important to reasonable people.
    you want to lessen political apathy, but you think it's pointless for people to voice displeasure with the unimportant war on drugs? This 'war' is a part of the governmental culture you're criticizing, it's hypocritical to discourage people from speaking out against it.
    the million stupid people that were arrested last year for possession are just that...stupid. think about what you're doing before you do it. i agree that possession does not warrant a jail sentence, but i still contend that you have to be really inept at living to get caught in possession because you KNOW what you cannot do...they're not hiding the ball. you act like i am chastising you and people who are for the legalization of marijuana. i am not.
    Not chastising? we're not 'reasonable people, stupid, insignificant, uninformed, dispassionate idiot, naive'....ok :rolleyes:
    i just think it is not important and that the war on drugs is a myth.
    a myth? Are you baiting me, wtf?
    i'm sorry you feel threatened by my opinion, but it is my opinion and you're not going to change my mind because there is nothing profound you can tell me about this argument. choose your battles.

    Threatened? :D I just think it's wrong, and I can back up my opinion, that's all...If you can flat out say that no one can change your mind, then they can't. Good luck with that attitude tho... I'm really sorry for challenging your opinion.
