Nope, can't think of a good thing about it, but I have known people to get killed or seriously injured because of mental impairment while on the drug.

Legalize it? I think not.
You must be out of your mind... You could say the same things about Alcohol or Cigarettes, are you proposing we ban those too? We've already proven that prohibition does not work once in this country... The choice is clear... LEAGLIZE IT! Don't criticize it.

The point is, it shouldn't BE illegal.

I don't smoke pot - I don't drink alcohol much (champagne on New Year's Eve about covers it) - I don't smoke cigarettes - I don't hire prostitutes - I don't gamble - there's a lot of things that I don't engage in myself, but I object to others demanding that those who want to partake stop doing so.

To paraphrase Benjamin Franklin, if it doens't break my arm or pick my pocket, I don't care! And nobody else should either. To the best of my knowledge we don't elect a Head Honcho of All That is Moral in this country.

America1st: You saying this:

I take exception to that! I live conservatively but favor a mostly liberal political idealogy. Are you suggesting I ought to burn to death and at that slowly?

That truly does smack of the evil mindedness of another man who was NOT liberal: Hitler.

Is that your new signature? Maybe you should "pray" about it first and see if you still want to keep it. It sends a message to others that I would hope you do not really mean.

OD
Hitler, Hitler, Hitler..,did you forget white trash, racist, and redneck.
Hitler may have killed many people but he was still a wannabe compared to Stalin ,over 30 million of his own people died at his hands, or how about the leader of China over 36 of his people died for what...

But O dear, I wasn't thinking of you when I put that on here, just all the liberals that want and have mess with me.
Don't I have the right to express my feelings about the world or is that right just for the liberals..

No i really don't want to see liberals burn, I just want them to pay for their own ideas and stop putting down America and white people.. now I have been fighting liberals for as long as i can recall...and i don't plan on stopping until they are all gone,along with their illegal dogs...

Sorry, but what can you expect after being pimp slapped for over 47 years by liberals..

OD, when i was 12 i was at a park (on a Army base) when a group of liberal hippies came on base and start yelling that my father was going to die because he was a baby killer over in NAM. and that i need to die because I was a a lowlife for being a Army brat. do you realize what that does to a young kid, who loves his father, or do you even care. my mother took me to the airport to meet the plane that was bring my father and his company back for nam, and guess what...the liberals was there too, throwing dog crap at the troops and calling them baby killers. and today we have liberals beating the crap out of GIs just for wearing thier uniforms... and you say that i scare you..well now you know how i feel.. not good is it..

America 1st,

I am very sad for you and sickened how people have treated you and your family. Those people may have said they were liberal, but they were not peacemakers.

I am very sorry. And though I never was in any way aligned to a group of people under any kind of organized umbrella of liberalism or even any organized group for pacifism, I want to simply apologize cos I am another fellow human being. And people ought not do stuff like that to one another...

A Hug to you,
OD

Thank you, that all I can ask for..is just a little understanding.
I know i come off as being a hardass, but that is how my life is. I do not wish to offend any good people. I have had "my country and my people drill into me for a long time.
But thanks again..

I must admit that I have not heard any of these stories either... The soldiers I have seen coming home from the M.E. have all had a heroes welcome at the airports they have landed in.
