mcnally the law can only assume that prostitution is consenting, just as the
law can only assume that drug use is consenting. otherwise aspirin would be
illegal because somebody could force a whole bottle of the stuff down your
throat and make you overdose

re #182 and tod I don't think they all need to be. you are more of a danger
to society as a shitfaced drunk behind the wheel then you are stoned on
morphine

re #184
Are you saying that a morphine addict is less likely to turn into a thieving
derelict to support their habit? A heroin junky is going to stay employed
as long as a boozer? I very highly doubt that.
As for drinking and driving, I think a heroin junky wouldn't even be able to
sit up in the driver's seat let alone drive it. I wouldn't condone driving
in either case, anyway.

i find it funny that you cited something coming from
a republican polling firm

They're not. I found it confusing and interesting that a republican
polling firm would bias a poll in favor of pro-choice by defining it
as including people who believed in taking away that choice during the
later 2/3rds of a pregnancy.
Maybe it was a ploy to make pro-life look invincible. I dunno.

re #185 tod yes I am, alcohol is a more addictive and more debilitating drug
than many drugs that are illegal. Plenty of people can use hard drugs and
participate properly in society, just as many people can be drunks and do so.
Sherlock Holmes was a morphine addict ya know, and he did best crime solving
while he was sitting at Baker Street getting high :)

why for instance shouldn't marijuana be legal? its less addictive than
alcohol or nicotine. marijuana doesn't cause psoriasis of the liver, it
doesn't cause cancer. Its a painkiller but not as strong as Alleve. Why
shouldn't be legal?

re #190 you don't need a meth lab, you can buy the cold medicines over the
counter and cook the stuff yourself

re. 190: with what?
in other words... without a meth lab?!
also, uh, i think generally, uh, the thought is that, uh, most people wouldn't
be able to make methamphetamine on their own. :(
methcathione, though!

Re 192 True. Which is why you can't buy more than two boxes of sudafed at
at time here in AZ now. Meth is a *huge* problem out here, and it's only a
matter of time before it's going full tilt, nationwide. Heck, on the cover
of my hometown newspaper (The Tecumseh Herald), there was an article about
a meth lab being busted.
I tend to find illegal drugs to be a horrid problem in this country, and
what's sad is that I have no real clue as to how to go about ending it.

I think if drugs were legalized, they would lose their appeal to the
rebel burnouts and probably not be a problem any more. Of course, you'll
always have people who sniff gasoline and choke themselves.

Re. 199: Volunteering for a position that is set up to have you deal with
people who have problems with something is hardly going to give you a very
good idea of how it works when someone doesn't have a problem with that thing!
Nonetheless, we can be sure that the real problem here is BAD PARENTING. The
parents of these children had a CHOICE to use methamphetamine in whatever way
has caused their children trouble. Such people would be bad parents,
regardless of how much 'methamphetamine' (whatever THAT is) they've smoked.

Richard, please shut up. Everytime you post something you set back the cause
of liberalism with your demonstrations of ignorance. And BTW, I think
"psoriasis of the liver" is easily cured. Just chug a bottle of shampoo. Or
in your case, anti-freeze.

And I agree with edina that there really is no good solution to the
drug problem. I also agree with what someone else posted, that there
is a culture surrounding drugs where part of the attraction is the
drugs being illegal, and hard to get. Legalize it and you take away
some of the mystique
