Naive maybe….but they're all illegal and that's why I lump them all together.
I have zero tolerance for druggies, always have always will.
I enjoy a glass of wine as much as the next person but I have zero tolerance for drunks either. It's not a disease, it's a weakness.

nothing anyone does affects only them.
so next time you hear someone say something about their actions only affecting (positively or negatively) themselves.

So, if tomorrow they suddenly legalized just one of those drugs, your opinion of it would change based solely on the legality of it within a governmental system?

leave him alone . . . he was in the military; he's used to being a slave to what the government believes is correct.

I'm just trying to grasp any semblence of logic from that statement. Although he and I agree and disagree almost with equal frequency, I can usually at least manage to " get" his point of view. On this one, I'm currently at a loss.

Good one. Sir, yes sir!!! (sorry for the military reference… I have a bad habit of lumping all people in the military of being a certain way)
My ancestors had zero tolerance for blacks and women voting, so I see where you're coming from.. makes sense.

Not true….when I served homosexuality was illegal in the military and punishable by prison time then dishonourable discharge. I thought (and still do) that was a ridiculous attitude for the military to take and disagreed with it 100%
If they legalized weed tomorrow I wouldn't really have a problem with it. If someone uses an illegal substance they should be punished, end of….your attitude is why this country's society is in the crapper "fuck the government I'll do what I want regardless"…alcohol isn't illegal but driving with too much in your bloodstream is. I happen to think the level is far too low but that doesn't mean I drive around over the legal limit. The legal limit is so low they may as well just put it at zero imo. Zero tolerance is probably the best way to go at this point.

That's great, just great….bring out the race card at every opportunity.
I hope you're ashamed of your ancestors.

To be fair, Mankie wasn't really in the "military."
He was in Her Majesty's Royal Navy and, with the exception of flexing their muscle over third world Argentina in 1982, they haven't won a real naval battle in a couple hundred years.
It's more like he was on the The Love Boat loaded with fireworks.

We haven't had to…because nobody fucks with us anymore.
How did that USS Cole work out for y'all?

C'mon, this thread has turned into a winding, mysterious journey as epic as any acid trip. Someone needs to post a picture of a goat in a hat or some adverbs or walkonby's resume and then we can all come down together.

Just the fact that it was GGW who got this discussion started is why this board is so priceless. Wouldn't have guessed that would've happened in a million years. Hopefully, the Black Album was played sometime during the duration of his recent experience.
