How about the: drug dealers are treated as all other community businessmen campaign?

Funny that we treat drug users and dealers like the worst criminally imaginable, yet we don't see cops going after politicians and banksters with the same level of enthusiasm. Or for that matter, corrupt doctors that just prescribe pills like candy.

I do think I'm fair. But I don't base my actions on what I think is "good", I base them on the laws in force, the information or evidence at hand, the oath I took, and my best judgment as to what the right course of action is. I don't get it right all the time, but I have a pretty solid batting average.

Here it is again... the oath.

Just curious, but what oath is it that LEOs have to take exactly? Maybe us civilians are misunderstanding what that oath means.

Some people blame the cop when their real beef is with the laws.

Of course it is with the laws. But you have just read two cops say that they exercise their own discretion with regards to when or if they choose to enforce those laws. Seems like the poor guy gets worked over by the cops but the real criminals in the pressed white collar shirts get a pass.

Nothing would make my day more than to see some cop arrest a lawmaker for violating the constitution or stealing from the taxpayers.

Whatever, wherever, laws are laws. If you don't like them get them changed. How many of you cop haters have actually worked to get the laws you despise changed. If you haven't, you don't have the right to complain.

You think voting matters? How old are you... 8 years old?

Do you believe in Santa Claus also?

You answered your first question with your second answer. Just because your morality says it's wrong doesn't mean it's wrong. You're applying your morality to the laws. If I said I thought murder was ok and should not be prosecuted, I'm sure you would not be ok with murder being legal. I'm a libertarian as well. I believe similar to you about freedom.

No, you total missed what he said. He clearly stated anything that doesn't affect anyone else. Ckearly, murder doesn't fall in that category.

The last page and a half of this toxic bull****¡t is exactly why I usually stay the hell away from this thread.

You may now resume your anarchist tirade.

Did you comprehend, bro? I used that example because it was as rediculous as his example of cops being ordered to kill children. Come on, read it again, maybe you can understand.

You don't have to justify legalization of MJ to me. I agree. It's no different than alcohol which is legal. All I ask is don't make me pay your welfare, unemployment, food stamps ect when you can't get a job because it affects your job performance. I realize that it affects people differently and sine function quite well using it but some can't and don't.

The Very same people we are complaining about that write these ridiculous laws are the very same ones you are complaining about that are handing out entitlements.

Let's flip this... what YOU done to change the laws you are complaining about? I bet $1 million you say vote... lol.

Lol. Send me your money. I've presented arguments in front of politicians, I've volunteered for campains of candidates that supported my ideals, I've made thousands of phone calls to other voters, I've donated money to campaigns that aligned with what I thought was best for my community. What have you done, other than sit and ***** about everything?

The problem is as much as you'd like to believe otherwise, drug use affects others not just the one taking the drugs. It's a tremendous cost. If you put something in your body, it's your responsibility not to hit my wife with your car. If you take drugs and it causes you health problems, it's your responsibility to care for yourself, not mine. The reality is when you take drugs, especially things not labeled marijuana, you typically are not responsible for yourself.

I've seen polls regional polls showing that people are in favor of keeping pot illegal. It depends on the region. The last poll I saw in Tennessee was a couple of years ago and it was like 60-40 against legalization but don't hold me to that.

You want to legalize pot, get it on the ballot. Work toward it. Then let the populace decide.

What difference does the polling data or popular opinion make if the law is unConstitutional?

Lol, let's start with a military to defend our country. I guess we can depend on other countries not coming over?

Who was the last country to invade us?

If we had any common sense, we would use the two oceans as a natural defense. Bit instead, we globetrotting around and create enemies halfway around the world.
