Yes! With any luck something in this drop will be usable against Arpaio. Sheriff Joe is already under investigation by multiple federal agencies, including a federal grand jury. Anything that gets this guy indicted, and with luck convicted is a good thing.
You might call it wallowing in ignorance, but some people are a danger to others
You. You are dangerous to others. You, and people who share your ideas are responsible for the atrocity that is prohibition. You have imprisoned millions of otherwise harmless people. You have sparked a drug war that has claimed thousands of lives. You are more dangerous than any pothead.
You forgot alcohol. It's more addictive, and more toxic, and more violence inducing than any of those drugs you listed. Yet it's legal and regulated.
Why? Because we tried prohibiting it, and that just made everything worse. We repealed prohibition, and more people drank, but the crime associated with drinking fell.
You can expect the same when we legalize cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine and PCP. In fact, it's already happened in Portugal.
No, it's pot smokers who are politically acceptable targets of prejudice and ignorant hatred. Come back when you can get thrown in jail if you're caught with a cross.
Maybe 90%... you wouldn't want to operate machinery
I can tell you've never hung out with machinists. Smoking pot doesn't affect your ability to operate machinery any more than it affects your ability to play Street Fighter or Call of Duty.
Federal judges don't decide right and wrong. They decide legal and illegal. If you can't tell the difference, your opinion has no bearing on factual reality.
Wikipedia uses a non-pixelated version and accepts donations and distributes them to the people that work on Wikipedia. Why aren't they targeted by Jay Maisel?
Because the US isn't interested in stopping frivolous lawsuits. This is the system working as intended. Giving lip service to fairness, while giving the rich and powerful a cudgel to punish anyone who actually tries to exercise their rights.
Yeah it's not all bad. They got STS9 too, but again put them on an afternoon stage. That's not even worth it. STS9 deserves a slot after dark.
The best show I ever saw was a Funkadelic show. They played the late night set at Schwagstock a few years ago. Man they just kept going. It was almost 5am when I finally gave up, and apparently they kept playing for a couple hours more.
Schwagstock was held at Camp Zoe, which recently got confiscated by the Feds for being too awesome. What a sad country we live in.
REO Speedwagon, can't miss that. I mean literally, get a good scope and position and you can't miss.
Amazing how clueless people around here can be about music. Check out the lineup at the inaugural Red Sky Festival. Journey and 311 are the big acts. They got George Clinton, and then put him on in the afternoon, WTF? There's your headliner people!

How about you just leave us alone instead?

You really seem to have a problem with that "should".

Once you start looking, it's everywhere.
These are in fact the same people behind the GNAA.
3. SELLING or BUYING it (or any other naturally occurring psychoactive substance*) should be illegal.
If you attempt to take away my ability to purchase coffee, I WILL KILL YOU!
Then why are so many Christians so willing to send their neighbor to jail?
It's important to anyone who cares about justice. I hope that include nerds.
You should be using LSD already. All of the positive effects of an intense spiritual experience without the woo-woo of religion. Psilocybin works too.
Touche. Excellent point.

They both have two first names, it can get confusing.

Most of the responsible ones are still closeted. There is a war on them, you know.

He won't have to. There is no chance of this ever getting to the president.

No, he was factually correct. Not everything produced before 1960 is in the public domain, but it should be.

Because predators prey on the weak.
Did you notice the "should" in the parent post?

As increased bandwidth useage becomes the norm, that just means more overage fees for your telco execs to pocket.

Thank God for the Slowdown, that's all I can say.
