[CJbass420]

i need to be at the next one of these, im in nashua, anyone know when the next one is?

[mike7560]

How many of these people I bet collect a welfare check?

[CJbass420]

@mike7560 look at the amount of famous athletes musicians and actors who all smoke weed, like micheal phelps, ricky williams, micheal vicks, and those are just the ones i can think of off the top of my head most basketball players smoke it. weed is simply not as bad as people say it is, im more mature then you because i dont fall for government propaganda i do first hand research and learn actual facts, now as i said stop spreading lies.

[CJbass420]

@mike7560 btw alcohol is worse then weed.

[mike7560]

listen to her son his brain is fried or he is retarted

[mike7560]

tell your son to get a job, oh! your all to busy smoking pot. yes she is she is still their! she hasn't done anything productive in life except collect a wefare check!

[CJbass420]

@mike7560 really? because i know pot smoker who own their own business. please go feed to your bullshit propaganda to five year orld because their the only ones dumb enough to beleive it.

[mike7560]

@CJbass420 you are twenty one yrs old I would be for everyone to smoke crack at that age. You are not old enough no, mature enough to know that pot effects you in negitive way. You can be so much more with out it. People don't need to rely on a weed to get by each day. I enjoy a sober life today and its great.

[CJbass420]

@mike7560 i dont rely on weed to get by each day ive gone several days without it, and infact i know several people in their 40's who have been smoking weed sine their teens and they are all doing just fine, my uncl owns his own business and qtr million dollar house, my step dad is a dry waller and work his ass of everyday, one of his freinds did dry walling until he was forced into retirement because he destoryed his back by working so hard, another freinds owns a karat dojo and...

[Peridolin]

Louis sounds like he has smoked too much already.

He can barely understand a simple question. LOL

[robinhoodintn1]

let them people alone not hurting anyone,dam cops to scared to go after real criminals,so they just pick on people who are breaking a minor law,i hope some cop from that city reads this[ go after real crooks and gang bangers dont go and hide somewhere and then show how brave you are by arresting harmless people,i guess that's the reason your wifes hate to see you come home they know your going to pull out that half inch dick and make them salute it, poor,poor cops.

[SSILENTNATION]

@robinhoodintn1 Same old boring line.....blah blah blah waa waa waa - you sound like a siren. The only reason their dick's are small, is because they just blew all their steam out porking your nasty whore at home while you slave away at work all day. Judging by your page...it seems all you can talk about is cops cops cops cops.....obsess much? Just break up with the filthy bitch and find someone new. LOL.

[robinhoodintn1]

@SSILENTNATION dam,you must live a bored life very boring , or the best i can come up with your cop or x cop ,.but idiots like you dont bother me, because you dont know any better,stupid.ingorant.simple minded. and probably still live at home with your mother,[miss bates]. but god said to pity people like you so i will prey for you. bye bye

[SSILENTNATION]

@robinhoodintn1 Ahhhh - the old you live in a basement with mommy line....it never gets old....*zzzz* keep winding that siren up. But yes....glad I don't bother you.....at least to the point that you being the one who felt the need to start this brilliant dialogue. As far as your little God line.....uh....aren't you just the cute little pot calling the kettle black...LOL. Yea hypocrite - entertain me with your biblical prowess....please....I'm begging you.

[CJbass420]

@robinhoodintn1 they wont this is in nashua, my hometown, cops here are assholes, its very sad.

[stopfascisminAmerica]

keep smokin fuck the po-po's

[ISamuelII]

I really hate to see thugs harassing people no matter what they don't like about them.

Listen, prohibition of ANY chemical "intoxicant" is illegal according to our ninth amendment of the bill of rights. Plug in the enumerated "intoxicating" and "liquor" into that ninth amendment and guess what, any "intoxicant" is the right of the people to use as desired and medically.

[mottoncouthUSA]

I like that sign, which read, "If you confiscate, then you are in possession." Very nice.

[p20]

Yeah this is kinda sad. This kid that was arrested doesnt seem like he has all his marbles for some reason and the mother seems pretty irresponsible and clueless. Yeah lets give all kids access to drugs and lets see if we can fry luis just a little bit more... You are making the hero out of the wrong person and doesnt really look good for ur website, or free keene if this is what they support

[AnarchyInYourHead]

Dave, thanx for helping expand the reach of this woman's voice.

[MEpianist]

We shouldn't be advocating kids and teenagers smoke. If you're in NH please call you State Senator and demand they override any Lynch veto of the decriminalization bill for Adults.

[Swanzo]

That is pretty rotten they picked on Louis. He appears to have some kind of disability and it seems like they singled him out.

[SSILENTNATION]

@Swanzo Yeah right.....imagine that....police picking up a minor for smoking pot. Go figure. Never could have thought that could happen in America.

[MEpianist]

@SSILENTNATION troll much?

[DisintersGroup]

notice how everytime youtube user, SSILENTNATION, comes on the Ridley comment board the discussion immediately becomes very meaningful? that is because SSILENTNATION is a genius in every meaning of the word. i think he has real personality and should lead the entire discussion on marijuana law reform and debate, lmfao. silent nation is synonymuos with 1984; take your own advice and please, s t f u !

[SSILENTNATION]

@DisintersGroup Compared to Louis, half man half cadaver, I am a genius. Besides which, like I said earlier today.....I knew you couldn't resist writing back. LOL - so predictable. Come on.....light your dimwit and go for the big prize! And stop telling Ridley to stfu....that is pretty rude.

[slewofdamascus]

This comment sums up your humanity, or lack of humanity, quite sufficiently. It's "americans" like you that have created the type of environment which lead to the sort of atrocities at Abhu Grahib, Guanatanamo, and atrocities like the one we have recently viewed via wikileaks (Collateral Murder). Congrats. Your message is taking hold. You must be so proud.

[SSILENTNATION]

@slewofdamascus You forgot to blame the Holocaust on me, as well as the Beslan School Massacre. Oh well - next video perhaps. Anyways...thanks for feeding me - I was getting hungry and I can always count on a poor freestater type to come along and drop me some fodder for me to chew on. Oh and yes....I am proud - glad you got SOMETHING right about me. Anything else you wish to whine about with me?

[slewofdamascus]

@SSILENTNATION pride cometh before the fall

[SSILENTNATION]

@slewofdamascus *smack slurp* So another hacked up Bible quote - FANTASTIC WORK. Do you think God has sent you to change the world by having you leave comments on youtube videos? Is this your purpose? LMAO - I command thee...give me more!

[slewofdamascus]

@SSILENTNATION - you really are a clueless fool, whose only success is to lower the level of discourse into an arena (the gutter) where you feel "at home". I couldn't care less about your salvation, but when you make a spineless attack on someone with an obvious disability, I'm going to respond whether it's here or in-person.

[SSILENTNATION]

@slewofdamascus Oh what a crock of shit...like you're some revenger for those who you diagnose over the internet as having a disability - puhleez. Dum Dum Louis...is a fully capable adult - but you can pretend he isn't if you like. Stupidity, isn't a disability. However, be that as it may - it was you, not I, who felt the need to hack a Bible quote and throw it into my "arena" - so twist it nine ways to Sunday if you want - it matters not to me, nor does your little internet life.

[slewofdamascus]

If I lived in an open carry stae, and if I was a gun owner, I'd carry everywhere, more or less. I happen to believe if everyone carried, crimes against people would drop dramatically, and it would have a very negative impact on the imprisonment racket, which is a positive, imo. We need fewer criminal judges, criminal lawyers and fewer prisons.

People who smoke marijuana are less predisposed to violence, anybody who has experience in this regard will back me up.

[dtmbcorp]

And of course, excellent reporting as always Dave. Love ya buddy! We need an army of Dave clones with notepads and camcorders so that we can get this kind of local reporting everywhere!

Keep it up!

[fczwartek]

Make Ridley's shit the chronic...he (obviously) likes to get f*d up!

I'm all for decriminalizing pot. But these L'tarians are crazy if they think that bringing guns to one of these rallies/parties is a good idea. How is mixing drugs and guns either reasonable or responsible?

Secondly, showcasing and glorifying pot use by minors is reprehensible. You jackasses will set decrim back by decades.

These parties are not going to win over the general public. No one will take u seriously.

[dtmbcorp]

@fczwartek Who obviously likes to get fucked up? Dave? He doesn't smoke!

You're a jackass

[fczwartek]

@dtmbcorp

There's this neat thing called "irony." You should check it out!

[dtmbcorp]

@fczwartek fczwartek has replied to your comment on NH marijuana mom: Cops singled out my son in Nashua:

@dtmbcorp

I'm not against pot. I think it should be legal for adults to grow and and consume it as they see fit. I'm not a puritan reactionary.

Having these public drug parties with minors who are obviously wasted (shy?!? Crackah Please!) where firearms are present.... these kind of spectacles are doing nothing to progress marijuana decrim!

---

Are you certain they're underage?

Dave?

[fczwartek]

The nashua telegraph reported that the kid who was arrested (the black kid that Dave tries to talk to in this video) was a minor.

That's a pretty significant (and inconvenient?) fact that apparently Dave forgot to mention.

Also other minors were seen in Dave's videos of public pot parties from last fall in Keene.

[slewofdamascus]

@fczwartek - What are you implying? This is a pretty low criticism, filled with inuendo and so on, if you ask me; at least on the surface, from an outsider's perspective. What is the problem? He seems like a pretty cool kat to me, age is so relative when it comes to issues of liberty, etc.

[fczwartek]

@slewofdamascus

"low criticism filled with inuendo."

I'm not really sure what you're talking about honestly.

All media has biases and agendas, and it's not like the Ridley Report is some kind of paragon of objectivity. I am just curious about why Ridley would "forget" to mention that the pot smoking teen was a minor.

Is it really a good idea for marijuana decrim proponents to be fraternizing (and smoking up) with minors at a public drug rally?

[slewofdamascus]

I don't have a problem with it, and clearly his Mother didn't have a problem with it, and I say thank goodness for that. I sense that you want to impose mainstream ideals to demonize and margainalize the de-crim movement, and it seems to me that's exactly the sort of mind-set that has led us to where we are today, and I think people are waking up to this sort of shallow discourse when they look around and (like a bad nightmare) see base criminality eminating from our highest institutions.

[fczwartek]

@slewofdamascus

You seriously don't see anything wrong with decrim proponents smoking pot with minors in public.....?

That sort of mindset is going to set the decrim movement back by decades.

Most parents are not going to have the same reaction as the 50 year old stoner mom.

The reason Lynch claims he won't sign any pot decrim bill is "for the safety of the kids." Pot decrim proponents cannot afford to be so irresponsible and reckless that they makes Lynch's statement true!

[slewofdamascus]

@fczwartek First of all, I didn't see that happening, so I don't agree with the premise. I don't know who is a "minor" and who isn't. I doubt anyone is checking IDs. Lynch should be sent home and someone more liberty-loving put in his place. "For the kids" - what a load of garbage. Only a politician would say that. We need to end the drug war so "kids" don't spend their lives in the criminal justice system.

[fczwartek]

@slewofdamascus

Oh, I agree with you that Lynch's "for the kids" rhetoric is BS. It's a joke. Getting busted with a small amount of pot can ruin a kids chances of going into college, getting a job. That does much more damage to a persons life than the effects of the drug itself.

I just don't think it's smart for adults to be giving minors drugs (especially in a public place on camera.) That kind of irresponsible behavior is playing right into Lynch's hand!

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

I agree with not giving young minors drugs -- I haven't seen this occur, but perhaps I missed it.

[fczwartek]

@slewofdamascus

"you want to impose mainstream ideals to marginalize the decrim movement."

The decrim movement already is marginalized. You need to convince and convert the mainstream if you ever want to see decrim happen. You need the mainstream or its not going to happen.

Irresponsible behavior like mixing drugs and guns and glorifying drug use by minors is not going to win you any mainstream support. You're undermining your own cause.

[Knowaymr]

LOL..."If you confiscate, then you're in possession" - I LOVE IT!!!

[dtmbcorp]

@MoneyIsSilver Yeah I thought that was brilliant as well

[libertyfizz]

The 11th annual Global Marijuana March is coming to a city near you around the 1st of May. 342 cities from every state in the union will be participating. Just look it up and find a city close by so you can participate. Nashua, NH is on the list. Protest sign ideas are needed. I really liked the, "Don't Harass over Grass."

A poll of voters, December of 2009 found that 53% support legalization, 43% oppose and 4% unsure.

[trailertrashrnr]

I smoked pot once and my head melted. But I'm better now, thank you.

[SSILENTNATION]

Louis is a certified rocket scientist...LOL. I think Louis should likely not be the poster child for pro marijuana. Wow....he can't even form a complete sentence nor understand a very clear question. Sister is equally stupid. I am going to take a wild stab in the dark that Louis and fam are not the most noble family in Nashua. Mom has been smoking for the past forty years? Maybe that is why she was in her pajamas at four in the afternoon the day poor Louey was picked on. *sniffle sniffle*

[trailertrashrnr]

@SSILENTNATION - You are a perfect example of why they are out there protesting. You deride people because they don't talk or dress like you. It remind me of the bullies in school who would pick on the weak and defenseless. Well thank God everyone is not like you or this would not be a country of the free. Please seek help.

[SSILENTNATION]

@trailertrashrnr That was so touching. It also made me feel ashamed. Nah - just kidding. It didn't. Bullies....you mean like a mob of people who walk over to two police officers sitting in a car doing nothing and yelling and screaming at them and calling them chickenshit over a bullhorn? And then posting it on youtube for all to drop knowledge grenades on? Sort of like that?

[trailertrashrnr]

@SSILENTNATION wow I didn't see that you must be watching a different video than me

[fczwartek]

How these people expect to decriminalize pot with such ridiculous and public displays of ineptitude is beyond me.

Bringing guns to a public drug party? Glorifying the use of drugs by minors?

That kid was so fucked up he was completely incoherent and apparently not even cognizant of what was going on around him ... Do libertarians think that kid should have a gun in case the cops arrest him again?

Yeah, that's the ticket to decriminalization.

[dtmbcorp]

@fczwartek You sure are talking a lot of shit. You talk about the coherence of the kid who's shy in front of the camera, but choose to ignore the coherence of his mother (who has been smoking for 40 years and apparently successfully completed college {not that that means anything... college is a joke in my opinion}) as well as the intelligence or coherence or clarity of anyone else in the crowd. Ian was getting stoned and he's coherent enough to have a talk show.

[fczwartek]

@dtmbcorp

I'm not against pot. I think it should be legal for adults to grow and and consume it as they see fit.  I'm not a puritan reactionary.

Having these public drug parties with minors who are obviously wasted (shy?!? Crackah Please!) where firearms are present.... these kind of spectacles are doing nothing to progress marijuana decrim!

[dtmbcorp]

@fczwartek And what does having a gun have to do with ANY of this? Do you think that it is wrong for people to be exercising their inalienable rights to be physically able to defend themselves?

Guns are here to stay. So are drugs. Drugs have been around a hell of a lot longer, in fact. Man has been using mind altering drugs since pre-history. They predate religion itself.

Would you call a group of coworkers taking a smoke break outside the office a "public drug party?" It's hardly different.

[fczwartek]

@dtmbcorp

"what does having a gun have to do with this?"

That's exactly the same thing I want to know..... Who the fuck thought it would be a good idea to bring guns to a public drug party?

Does that person have a gun at their side every waking hour (and under their pillow when they sleep)....ostensibly for "self protection."

If so... they should immediately seek professional help (and stay the hell away from mind altering substances.....and hang up their holsters.)

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

The main reason I think most people open carry is to make sure that that freedom is respected. Freedoms which are not exercised tend to disappear. Indeed, the first people to frequently open carry in NH were harassed by police repeatedly -- but not so much anymore.

[fczwartek]

@ninjabunnyman

"freedom which are not exercised tend to disappear."

That's true, but there are plenty of legitimate opportunities to open carry responsibly and with respect for the general public.

I find it hard to believe that if no guns were brought to a drug rally that your freedom to open carry would be diminished.

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

That's true, there are plenty of other opportunities. I guess some people are in the habit. I don't use pot, but from what I understand about it, it's fairly mild, and is calming if anything -- it's not like it would make you likely to go nuts and shoot someone. Also, many of the people who go to rallies don't smoke. It very well might be the open-carriers were in that category.

Obviously nothing happened, nor has anything happened at any 420 event where some people open carried.

[fczwartek]

@ninjabunnyman

Pot effects people differently. I have used it before and I can tell you that it is a potent mind altering substance. The reason I haven't touched it in a decade is because of its potency and its effect. Not what I would describe as "fairly mild."

There is Ridley video (from last year) of people smoking and opening carrying. The woman who walked through Keene topless (for lack of a better description...don't know her name) comes to mind.

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

From what I have seen, I would not describe anyone as acting irresponsibly. Perhaps those who have used the drug more are affected by it less, or are more used to those effects. Guns have remained holstered -- not even violent rhetoric has been used, so I'd say the proof is in the pudding.

There's only one exception to that, I'm aware of, and it had nothing to do with pot.

It's threatening behavior that should be stopped, if it occurs, whether the person is on drugs or not.

[fczwartek]

@ninjabunnyman

Mixing guns and drugs is irresponsible behavior. Just because no one got hurt does not justify it. Do you think a drunk driver who doesn't happen to kill or injure anyone is acting responsibly?

If people absolutely must have their guns everywhere they go, then why not leave the pot behind? You wouldn't even need to worry about the presence of minors if there were no drugs at these parties.

Want to be taken seriously? Remove the drugs from these drug parties.

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

It depends. Is the drunk driver swerving all over the road, or driving under control? The idea that one person can define what is responsible behavior for everyone is fairly arrogant. People are not all the same. For some people one beer would be enough to inebriate them. For others, two beers would have no effect at all.

*rollseyes Yes, removing all drugs from these "drug parties" is just what we need to be "taken seriously" (i.e. be no threat to the status quo, and be ignored).

[fczwartek]

@ninjabunnyman

So drunk driving is not really a crime...unless someone gets hurt or killed? Even the drunk who is swerving all over the road is technically acting "responsibly" up until the point where he kills you and your family?

No victim, No crime?

It's not a crime, it's not even irresponsible behavior until the moment that the drunk slams into your car, crushes the body of your wife and kids...probably decapitating one.

No victim, No crime?

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

No, as I said, if he were driving all over the road, that would be putting others in imminent danger, and he should be stopped. Also, private property rights are an important factor -- the road owner has a right to kick the driver off if he violates the rules for the use of that property.

"Crime" is really not really the most useful term.

There are two main questions -- should force be used to stop a person, and should force be used to obtain restitution from them?

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

It's moral to use force to stop someone who is the act of harming others, or recklessly placing them in imminent danger, and it's moral to seek restitution if they have harmed another person or their property.

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

In case you haven't noticed, we serfs have been meekly begging our masters for more freedom for a while now. If that was what was needed, drug prohibition, as well as many other abusive laws, fees, regulations, and taxes, would have ended a long time ago. It's time for us to behave as free men and women, and dare those bent on violence and control, to do their worst. At some point, the facade must fall away, and they, and others, will realize what they are doing.

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

Did Rosa Parks write a letter to the Montgomery city council, to beg them to change the bus policy, or did she simply refuse to move? Did Gandhi supplicate the British to let him make his own salt, or did he march to the sea and do it? Did Nelson Mandela, or Susan B. Anthony, Thoreau, or Mujibur Rahman merely request justice of their "masters"? Would we know their names if they had?

Civil disobedience has been the most successful force for change in the last century at least.

[fczwartek]

@ninjabunnyman

Oh, I don't have a problem with civil disobedience. Actually, I think it's practically the only legitimate way to make the elite policy makers hear the voices of average people (whom, I'm going to guess...you probably disparage as the "mob"), especially in the absence of a real functioning democracy, where corporate fascist plutonomy is the order of the day.

[ninjabunnyman]

@fczwartek

I agree -- and I certainly wouldn't refer to average people as the "mob". I respect individuals, and want them to be free to make their own choices. It's the idea of statism that supposes average people are unable to make their own decisions, and so must have their lives ruled over by others, who are supposedly more capable.

Given that the federal government is so corrupt (and I would say far worse than state or local government), would you also support NH independence?

[ISamuelII]

@nbm You know it pardner. No one would know anything if we simply request the tyrant stop its tyranny. We live our freedom or we are slave to the policy state aka police state.

For those contemplating using illegal intoxicants learn the ninth amendment. If needed you can educate your lawyer which will look at you like you just made them unemployed, and your jury will only require a lunch break to go it over.

Enumerated intoxicating liquor people retained others despair, clear as can be.

[fczwartek]

@dtmbcorp

Drug use/experimentation may have actually played a role in the evolution of the species. No question that they predate religion...and even civilization.

But pretending that nicotine, caffeine (or even chocolate) are of the same magnitude or potency as marijuana is highly disingenuous (you know anyone who smokes 2 packs of joints a day? ... neither do I.)

I've smoked pot before (and yes, I inhaled.) I don't like it though (personally) .... because it does have a powerful effect.
