Sounds like a plan, can we make a practice run on the communist
republic of Canada?


Why not on Washington, the corporate slave headquarters camp of America?
Most of the native Hawaaiins would nuke their agressors in a second.
Look first to your own eye.


Why do so many right-wing assholes like you have such hatred for Canada,


Because they're too stupid to realize that legalizing marijuana is bad
for
society,


Who is stupid?

Would it cause as many deaths as tobbacco or alcohol or gasoline in
SUVs? Smoking one joint just automatically renders the smoker a useless,
unemployable criminal for life, navel gazing peacefully in a corner,
until paranoia causes him to stop, or at least, cut back?

Besides which, if you didn't know, Canada does not propose legalising
cannabis, but only decriminalising possession of small, personal
amounts. The courts can't handle all of the cases in legal sequence so
other more seriously accused criminals are being let off for want of
timely prosecution. Further, the still debated proposed law would deal
more harshly with dope peddlars than is presently done. Besides, if a
majority of the population were to admit to smoking it would you still
insist they have no right to do it? Canada, unlike the states or the
Soviet Union, is not a prison for it's citizens.



I agree that marijuana ought to be decriminalized, and thereafter be
subjected to the same regulation and taxation as booze.


I believe it, like heroin, meth, cocaine, etc, would be better
controlled by taxation to support education and treatment, and that
providers, like with tobacco, should be liable to tort from victims,
since if there were no pushers, there would be fewer addicts, fewer
problems. MJ is not addictive, like booze or nicotine, or gasoline, or
heroin, or cocaine, or food, or water, or air.




Agreed, as to mj, but it does cause harm, but possibly no more than
drinking. I wouldn't object to the decriminalization of very small
quantities of the other drugs, but they are very addictive and harmful.

and gay marriage is an abomination. Oh yeah...and they can't keep
their politically intrusive noses out of *our* business.


*Government* has no business in the bedrooms of the nation, except
perhaps in ensuring the quality of condoms. According to your
constitution, it is a human right to persue happiness until and unless
it injures some one else. No victim, no crime. What people do for
harmless pleasure is no-one else's business. Rest assured, God will sort
them all out, as He decides. It's not your job. Don't ask, don't tell.



Agreed. Consensual sex between adults is none of the government's business.

"Conservatism" as it is practiced in this country is all about control.
