Led Zeplin "Stairway to Heaven" - Marijuana and drug wars

Vote Ron Paul to end the drug wars

"The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the Prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this."
-- Albert Einstein

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
-- Lord Acton (1887)

"Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right of being able to do what we ought."
-- Lord Acton

"The most certain test by which we judge whether a country is really free is the amount of security enjoyed by minorities."
-- Lord Acton

"Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide."
-- John Adams (1814)

"Every dollar spent to punish a drug user or seller is a dollar that cannot be spent collecting restitution from a robber. Every hour spent investigating a drug user or seller is an hour that could have been used to find a missing child. Every trial held to prosecute a drug user or seller is court time that could be used to prosecute a rapist in a case that might otherwise have been plea bargained."
-- Randy E. Barnett, "Curing the Drug-Law Addiction"

"Everyone wants to live at the expense of the State. They forget that the State lives at the expense of everyone."
-- Frederic Bastiat (1801 - 1850), French statesman and author.

"The difference between libertarianism and socialism is that libertarians will tolerate the existence of a socialist community, but socialists can't tolerate a libertarian community."
-- David D. Boaz (1997)

"...let libertarians of every cultural or religious inclination realize that in a political context, liberty is what's important, not the cultural or religious differences you may have with other libertarians.
Liberty isn't good just for right-wingers or for left-wingers. Liberty is good for everybody."
-- R.W. Bradford (Editor of Liberty Magazine)

"A little government involvement is just as dangerous as a lot -because the first leads inevitably to the second."
--Harry Browne (1996 & 2000 Libertarian Party Presidential candidate)

"The free market punishes irresponsibility. Government rewards it."
--Harry Browne (1996 & 2000 Libertarian Party Presidential candidate)

If you ask the government to impose morality, then moral questions will be decided by whoever has the most political power.
--Harry Browne (1996 & 2000 Libertarian Party Presidential candidate)

Government seems to operate on the principle that if even one individual is incapable of using his freedom competently, no one can be allowed to be free.
--Harry Browne (1996 & 2000 Libertarian Party Presidential candidate)

"The true danger is when Liberty is nibbled away, for expedients."
-- Edmund Burke (1899)

"Most of the trouble in this world has been caused by folks who can't mind their own business, because they have no business of their own to mind, any more than a smallpox virus has."
-- William S. Burroughs

"Probably all laws are useless; for good men do not want laws at all, and bad men are made no better by them."
-- Demonax - (Roman philosopher c. 150 A.D.)

"This country is a one-party country. Half of it is called Republican and half is called Democrat. It doesn't make any difference. All the really good ideas belong to the Libertarians."
-- Hugh Downs (1997)

"Force always attracts men of low morality."
-- Albert Einstein

The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure."
-- Albert Einstein

"Liberty is always dangerous, but it is the safest thing we have."
-- Harry Emerson Fosdick

"Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program."
-- Milton Friedman

"Fundamentally, there are only two ways of coordinating the economic activities of millions. One is central direction involving the use of coercion--the technique of the army and of the modern totalitarian state. The other is voluntary cooperation of individuals--the technique of the marketplace."
-- Milton Friedman, Nobel-prize winning economist.

I have (had, rather) close friends who died from OD. Don't give me that bullshit like YOU'RE the only person who has had drugs impact their life in a negative way.

Your friend who decided to try to OD? That was her choice. It wasn't like someone made her take drugs. She chose to. My friends who are dead now? They chose for themself what to do with their life. They weren't murdered by drugs or anything like that. They are responsible for themself.

"Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything" - Genesis 9:3

"He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth" - Psalms 104:14

From what i understand, you brainwashed religious psychos, if you hate pot, you hate Gods creations. Yet you claim to love God. So yeah.. FUCK YOU.

@y2knoproblem EVERYONE should be able to smoke anything they want. We own our bodies, not the government. Who is the government to tell you that you must keep yourself safe or risk going to jail

[5canesNatcham]

@y2knoproblem Anybody should be able to smoke whatever they want as long as the don't harm anyone else, just as people can drink as much alcohol as they want.
