Hey! You never know what some people are willing to tell you? If you want
to give me the name of a drug dealer, I am more than willing to pass it on
to the appropriate people. If you know f someone bringing dope across the
border adn want them stopped, drop me a line and I'll see what I can do to
have them intercepted.
Goose, it is illegal to smoke pot. It is dangerous adn it does indeed support
the terrorists who want to destroy this country. The same pipelines that
bring in drugs bring in other illegal goods, people, and weapons.
So yeah. I want to arrest these people.
It is what they pay me to do.

Bruce, please show me some evidence that a person in Ann Arbor buying pot
support terrorism. I don't smoke pot, I know folks who have however. Based
on my conversations with them most of the pot in the SE Michigan area is
grown here...by non terrorist people....so again please provide me some
evidence......

so why de we keep busting people brining in BC Bud every day at the bridge
and tunnel?
As I said, they use the same pipelines. you got a guy convicted three years
ago of bringin in 7 pounds of pot, and found driving a truck with 40 AK-47
disguised as hardware.
He smuggles pot ad!tel anderyn
I cannot find the number...
ns.
We find a container containing Cocaine, methamphetamine, and plastic
explosives. Coincidence?
If you buy narcotics, some portion of that purchase price supports a terrorist
in columbi or peru. He may be a Shining Path extremist trather than el Queda,
but you can bet at some point one or the other is going to kill someone with
a weapon you helped buy.

I think it is more likely to be the other way around. Smuggling guns and
explosives is extra dangerous and I'm sure extra remunerative: pot and
cocaine is chump change by comparison, and is probably done on the side
for extra spending money and because if you are busted for guns and
explosives nobody will give much of a hoot about the drugs.

mutilating the language in non-systematic ways, you are supporting the

If you really think that sales of (insert your drug of choice here) help
suppoort terrorism, here's something you can do to help foil those nasty
terrorists: Work towards legalization. Seriously, if marijuana were legal
in the US, you can bet that completely legitimate corporations would drop the
bottom out of the market and terrorists wouldn't make any money from it any
more.

yeah! then all we gotta do is hire more cops and arrest those who drive under
the influence.
Why is it the same people who promote drug use get all paranoid at the idea
of a government supplied drug like soma...

Maybe we could retask some of those cops who search cars for drugs at the
border.

bruse, you are an idiot. the computer industry does more to
(unwittingly) support terrorism than all of the potgrowing
crackers up in b.c. combined do...if you are really against the
support of terrorist groups you, and you alone, should stop
using a computer.
take a bath, smelly christian.

Huh? I've never heard of soma. And I've particularly never heard someone
on this system getting all paranoid about it. Anyway, if your main argument
is needing to arrest more people that are driving under the influence, then
you're *really* grasping at straws.

What about Toledo Windowbox or Cheddar WoWWie? Homegrown
helping someone whose job was taken away by a foriegn job.
So....
Bussinesses that use overseas labor (service or manufactoring)
are supporting terrorism!

We really should move this to another item....but I'm still waiting for that
evidence Bruce.
On topic: I saw user cme, Evan Corcoran, over the weekend. We were going to
hook up with tod, but no one had a car to get anywhere. He;s on his way back
to Poland in less than a week. Seattle was sunny, not a drop of rain the
whole time I was there...until I got on the plane to return home....

In defense of Bruce's, ah, oddly-formatted text, I must say that part of it
is due to our equipment at home -- it's often not easy to see if you've erased
far enough back or if what you've typed actually is appearing the way you want
it to. I have real trouble with that, myself, and I am hyper-vigilant about
typos and oddly-formatted text, because of my job (and I've fixed about twelve
typos in this post alone, which I could not have done if I were at home --
I have fat fingers and type faster than I can see, anyhow...)...

(Soma is more well-known as the official drug of the city folks in "Brave New
World")
My understanding of marijuana is that it does not significantly worsen driving
skills.
Combat terrorism by reducing oil use! Every SUV driven sends movey through
Saudi Arabia to Osama himself.

I've never noticed significant typos in anderyn's post. They're a standing
theme in bru's.
I have a lot of new freckles from slightly excessive sun exposure in
Yellowstone last week (not sure how that happened, as I was wearing SPF 45).
Do I count as a spotted grexer? :)

Re #172: Yes, buying pot supports those nasty terrorists in British
Columbia...
Re #184: I dunno, about the computer industry, but I'd say you support
terrorism much more directly by buying gas than you do by buying drugs.
Re #185: I'd take the DUI argument more seriously if I'd ever seen bru
arguing for banning alcohol. (Or at least bars with parking lots.)
Re #194: I suspect DEA anti-drug commercial soundbites like "pot pays for
terrorism" are drilled into the heads of border agents as part of their
training. It keeps them from thinking about the fact that the majority of
their job is to benefit U.S. corporations by propping up artificially high
prices for various commercial items through enforcing tarrifs and
restricting imports.
