  • And our own Government can't help the people of Fresno get water to their crops!!!! Fresno County, where communities are suffering as the Westlands Water District receives 10% of its federal water allotment this year. The cutbacks stem from the three-year drought and are exacerbated by federal protections for the threatened delta smelt. While Mendota CA unemployment rate is 41%. Screw the Delta Smelt. Give them water for their crops!!

  • Now thats a good idea, the war on drugs doesnt work here and it will not work over there.

  • "Drug abuse" is bad. Prohibition is worse.

  • just another really stupid, financially wasteful WoD effort by the US gov. They're not fighting "drug runners," they're fighting God who created the poppy plants and its opium-based derivatives.

    It's stupid to fight God and His creation. Poppies were legal for 1000s of years. only in the last several decades has the bored US gov blown billions based on whiners' hysteria.

    re-legalize, re-regulate, re-educate. eliminate the black market (no offense to Obama, et al), eliminate Prohibition.

  • FREEWILL THANK YOU! It's more of a crime to put someone in prison for a drug crime... Oh yeah another thing.. That over 20 bill isn't even counting housing these people, and court cost and the whole nine.. People like you are just like, my life ain't effected any!! It's really easy for some WISE ASS to make remarks when they've never had a problem.. And like I said you better not be an alcoholic telln others how to live! Stop, judging people, and look in the mirror once an while... POT IS SAFE!!

  • Yeah, I don't think so. We are spending over 20 billion dollars this year on the war on drugs. 60 percent of people are in prison for a drug problem, and another thing pal. I smoke pot and that's it, and if that makes me a drug adict in your eyes then so be it! But you better not be some fucking alcoholic trying to tell me how to live my life! NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO BE BURDENED BY GOVERNMENT! Our freedoms are being taking and it's people like YOU THAT LET THIS SHIT HAPPEN! Yes I would like...
