Congress is about to expand the drug war

[Herbaholic00]

I sure hope you right button basher, my only fear is the un safe people, there is still a alot of people that dont use drugs and think that your a smack head if you smoke a joint. If they buy the line that they could end up with jail time if the dont grass u up then who knows what would happen. Some people love their government and see doing what they are told as doing the right thing.

Peace

Good point herb. I guess my point would suffice if this was happening in the UK. As if anyone would give a shit here.

I can imagine the brainless flag-wavers in America would feel their doing their fine country a favour by ratting harmless potheads out to the very government that blackmails them to do so.

I guess pisshead's right in the end but I was thinking about this today. This isn't so much tyranny as what society has become. Think about it, it's the governments next action to deal with the drug problem following years of very little being accomplished. The fact is, drugs have no place in a politically correct society so if this is what it takes to get rid of them, it's ultimately appropriate in the eyes of the government.

It's just another sign of the future. As pisshead says, we'll all soon be one big, happy government family. (I think, sorry ).

i think the big point is that we have people in congress who think, hey...i'll write this piece of legislation that turns america into soviet russia or nazi germany...

we have people in our government who are subverting the constitution actively, and trying to turn america into a dictatorship.

this won't pass. if there's another attack, this will just get tacked onto another patriot act anyway...

they don't have enough enforcers to pull this kind of thing off. we'll win in the end, but we're going to lose our country in the process.

Holy shit! this is just like the old soviet union forcing everybody to rat each other out for "counter revolutionary" activities. Things like this make me want to have the dealers wage war on the anti-drug guys (like D.A.R.E.)

Oh, though now that I clicked on the link, I see it is on a biased website (for better or worse). do you have a credibly news site backing this up? because otherwise the information isn't necessarily valid or trustworthy.

I think it's that they only want you addicted to their drugs. If they can get all the addicts so scared away from harder core drugs they can then get them hooked on Zoloft and other anti deppresants.

Scares, as in put a few junkies in the pokie for life and they will clean up allot of open drug use.

So the ones that are afriad to spend the rest of their lives wil bubba, will then turn to AA, and psycologist that will then prescribe anti deppresants to fight the addiction.

Altho AA you cannot use any drugs what so ever, the chances are that they will go in and out of useing, especiaslly with the use of anti deppressants.


Peace.

[pisshead]

i posted the legislation, read that. or is that biased? the actual written legislation?

[stoner spirit]

I suggest that we revolt against these fucks, one way or another. Besides, we should already be pissed off at these people for trying to take our rights away. They're probably doing that behind closed doors secretly.

Yea this shit makes me sick as the first time i heard about it.However,i do not think,that if it is passed it will make "narks" out of people who are not normally "narks".What i'm trying to say is if your a fuckin low life snitch your going to be ratting people out regardless off this law.SO if your not a nark,your not going to start becasue of this bullshit law.

Chances are if your doing something illegal,your not doing it in front of anyone that would rat on you anyways.So just stay smart about your shit.
Godamn i hate snitches.

Congress is going about this in an intelligent manner (not moral, but intelligent), attempting to spread distrust and emnity among its people. The only way to fight it is to show a greater bond of trust and unity.
