    True or false: Legalizing drugs would lead to more addicts.

     

    True or false:  Being addicted to drugs is a BAD THING.

     

    Truthfully, I don't care if people use drugs or not, but I WOULD be afraid that if drugs were legalized, drug-related crime would soar through the roof.  Junkies would be mugging people left and right to support their habit :p  And plenty of innocent people would lose even more family members to drugs than they do now :(

     

    On a societal level, drugs don't do anything for us.  They add nothing.  And there are lots of drawbacks and reasons why they are a negative impact on society.  

     

     

    The only real difference in our arguments is that I'm putting the emphasis on society as a whole and you're putting the emphasis on the drugs themselves and personal choice.

     

    Your arguments and fears are unfounded and based solely on the bullshit you've heard from our glorious media and tyrannical government justifying their "war on drugs" which is really a war on our civil liberties and has been from the start.  

     

    Why don't you put forth some effort to educate yourself and get informed about drug use, our oppressive drug laws, and how at least one country who has decriminalized drug use has been successful - Portugal - even though it is far from a perfect approach much less free of oppression for users and alleged dealers.

    No identification is required in Ohio. (vehicle operation is different)

     

    That is what I thought was the case here but on another site an AZ resident claimed it is required to show ID if asked and linked the site I had provided (didn't read too much of the details on it) but after reading it more thoroughly, that in fact is not the case.

    I understand that AZ is a "Stop and Identify" state and so is OH according to this website, so she was required to show her ID or be arrested (officers discretion, I'd hope):

    Personally, if the po-po get in your face about something, your best bet is to shut up and comply.  You can deal with any legal problems related to it at a later date with your lawyer's assistance.

    While establishments around the country are setting up gun-free zones, one Colorado restaurant is welcoming customers who are packing – and they’re waited on by armed servers.

    The restaurant’s name: Shooters Grill, located in the gun-friendly town of Rifle.

    Waitress Ashlee Saenz serves customers with a loaded Ruger .357 Blackhawk handgun holstered to her leg, Old West-style,and she knows how to use it, she told the Post Independent.

    “Guns are welcome on premises,” a sign on Shooter’s front door says. “Please keep all weapons holstered, unless the need arises. In such cases, judicious marksmanship is appreciated.”

    Shooters owner Lauren Boebert called herself a strong supporter of the Second Amendment.

    “We encourage it, and the customers love that they can come here and express their rights,” Boebert told the Post. “This country was founded on our freedom. People can come in carrying their gun, and they can pray over their food.”

    Boebert and her husband, Jayson, opened the Western-themed restaurant a little more than a year ago. Its menu features American and Mexican food. Alcohol is not in the offing, and the décor and philosophy reflect Boebert’s strong faith..

    “I consulted with my Christian friends, and everyone said ‘Shooters’ sounded like a bar or a strip joint,” she said. “But I thought, this is Rifle — it was founded around guns and the Old West. We called it Shooters and started throwing guns and Jesus all over the place.”

    The restaurant offers training classes every other month so participants can qualify for a concealed carry permit in Colorado and Utah. The
    sessions even include dinner.

    In a town with a low crime rate, Police Chief John Dyer told the Post he likes Shooters’ business model.

    “If it was a bar, I might be saying something different. But I have no problem with it,” he said. “And besides, they make a really good burger.”

    I'm personally for anarcho-capitalism and libertarian approaches to what ails us as a society group so to hell with organized governments who only want more power and control at the local, state, and federal levels.  We are already a police state so it doesn't matter if you choose to support the po-po and their agenda, they're not your fucking friends.  

     

    As for all of the other farked up druggie kids out there....where the fuck are their parents?  Personally, I don't give a shit what choices they make just as long as it doesn't wind up on my lawn.
