Pot Robertson

[deadballo]

Have you ever watched the 700 club, ON WEED?

[troydawg47]

So if Pat Robertson is looking at it with common sense then why the hell is it still illegal? ??

[hsew]

Get rid of welfare, most of the public sector, and let the pot smokers smoke. Natural Selection will take care of the rest.

[electricguitarplayr]

Instead of legalizing pot how about instead just lessing the sentence for its use. Instead of putting people in jail why not start with probation and a fine and community service and then maybe no more than a year in jail but no serious jail time for it. If we completely legalize it that will be the government saying ok to sin. That would not be good.

[Nevigo]

I agree too.

[dikcheese4ever]

i'll smoke to that.

[Akatam0t0ma]

With someone like Pat Robertson making so much sense in such a short snippet, maybe there is a hope for the human race after all! Hallelujah from a rabid anti-theist atheist to Pat Robertson!

[computerpurple]

I think Pat Robertson beef about pot has to do about the sentence that is given out for the small amount of pot bust. NOT that there shouldn't be any kind of sentence. It still is a crime.

[Akatam0t0ma]

@computerpurple:

And why possessing, or even smoking a plant should be a crime in the first place?

[computerpurple]

@Akatam0t0ma Well in the case of pot it's no vitamin , it does nothing to improve ones good health.

[Akatam0t0ma]

@computerpurple:

And since when is it the business of the government to tell me what's good or bad for my health? If you oppose Obamacare and socialized medicin

[Akatam0t0ma]

@computerpurple:

There are plenty of other things that do "nothing to improve ones good health", yet no person in his right mind would advocate throwing people in jail for possessing and using them.

Since when is it the business of the government to tell me what's good or bad for my health? If you oppose Obamacare and socialized medicine(Which I assume you do), why do you support such a blatant paternalistic policy?

[computerpurple]

@Akatam0t0ma I agree with you that there are plenty of things that do nothing to improve ones good health. Why pile on another. Also it''s bad enough that some people drink and drive why add another danger to the mix.

[Akatam0t0ma]

@computerpurple:

"Why pile on another"

Because it's the responsibility of people to decide what drugs they take,NOT of the nanny state.

"Also it''s bad enough that some people drink and drive"

Yeah,so why not bring back the happy days of the Prohibition! Yipee!

Indeed,once again goes to show that most Republicans are no less statists than most welfare-state Democrats, yet they try to insult other people's intelligence claiming how much they care about freedom! Whom are you trying to fool?

[computerpurple]

@Akatam0t0ma Hello just wanted to say common sense must come into play when weighing the issue of to legalize pot. It's not good... DUH.

[Akatam0t0ma]

@computerpurple:

The war on drugs is far worse and caused far more harm to society than any drug, so to say that "common sense must come into play", is to say that government should STOP trying to solve problems it has no business solving in the first place and get its slimy tentacles out of people's lives...DUH!

@Akatam0t0ma Hello again just to let you know i just finshed watching that video you mentioned. Oh and i posted a comment also.

[RonPaulGeorgeRingo]

Good to see some of the Reagan zombies beginning to wake up (albeit decades behind the rest of the country).

It's about damn time!

[FlightSimulatorXATC]

The instance we decriminalize marijuana is the day the drug lords in Columbia and Al Qaeida win. A few months back the CIA traced a money trail from Columbian drug lords to Al Qaeida using jets crossing West Africa. Do the research. Every time someone takes a puff of weed, the money is interchanged between people sitting in caves plotting attacks on the people they sell their product too. Mindless hypocrites. 

[mosquewatcher]

Ladies and gentlemen, hell has just frozen over. I agree with him.

[drutter]

Sounds like he has a brain in his head, even if he's still falling for that same old religious delusion. I can agree with him on this issue at least!

[hellsunicorn]

Eventually reason prevails. Now if only Pat Robertson and Tom Tancredo could talk some sense into people like Mitt Romney, there may be some hope for the mainline conservative movement in America. But I'm not holding my breath as of yet.

[tillman40]

@hellsunicorn just vote for Ron Paul in 2012..he is already for legalization and understands the need to break up the Fed...

[hellsunicorn]

@tillman40 Oh don't worry about that, if it came down to Paul and anyone else running, that is who would get my vote. I'm more concerned with what's going to happen down the road, the Liberty movement needs more converts, and a few big names couldn't hurt.

[joegully]

We both can agree on something Pat Robertson
