Tigerpaw Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 LoL @ butthurt. I have a perfect driving record and I've never been arrested. When I'm not on my motorcycle, I'm pretty much a model citizen. I'm not sure what actually takes place when I straddle my bike, but I can assure you that I'm anything but law-abiding at that point. That wasn't directed at you personally. No hard feelings, lol. I just hear many people that sound like they WANT selective enforcement of laws, from the cops they hate so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerpaw Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Agreed, there are way too many laws. Just have to decide which ones to cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I'd be all for hard drug legalization if it didn't affect children. I could give a shit what dick and Jane junkie do with their bodies but their use affects their children and that's fucked up.Legalizing won't affect Dick or Jane junkie as they are already hopped up on meth.. What it will do is make room in the prisons for violent offenders... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I understand this mag and I know that legalization probably won't result in more widespread use. The fact remains that hard drugs ruin the lives of innocent children. I'm all for a revamp of the laws, a switch from criminalization to getting addicts the help they need. It's a health issue, not a law enforcement issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smashweights Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Why should you give a shit what someone else puts into their own body? Because they drive cars while I'm riding my bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Why are people so anti-police? They enforce the laws, not write them. I work with law enforcement officers on a daily basis. I like 99% of them. That doesn't mean that I am not displeased when they do poor police work by infringing upon people's rights and getting evidence suppressed. I have said it a million times: Police officers have a hard job, and they are not expected to work without occasional mistakes. What I find irritating is when they say "I do this all the time" as if the frequency with which they violate people's civil rights makes it less egregious. We had an officer call our office yesterday after one of my coworkers refused to charge a suspect because the premise for the search and arrest was baseless. She explained to him why our case would have fallen apart, and his response was to say, "well I've done that before, and I'll do it again." Great. Thanks. Way to learn from your mistakes.

magley64 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Because they drive cars while I'm riding my bike So let's bring back prohibition. Drunk drivers are just as dangerous or more dangerous than high drivers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohiomike Posted November 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 We already have intoxication laws and impaired driving laws. That has nothing to do with legalization of drugs. I'm not advocating, but I'd rather contend with stoned drivers than drunk drivers. I'd rather not contend with either, but no law will prevent that.I agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
