    Legalize / tax everything the war on drugs is a waste of time, money and resources.......

    I think the hung over guy is a bigger problem than the dopie stoner who sparked one up last night. Or maybe the glazed donut eater ( the kinda person that you wonder how they passed a physical ) is the most impaired of all.

    And i heard on the news there was a shortage in Colorado, so be on the look out on the Load Boards for a mysterious shipment from Washington state to Denver.
    Lets see, how many joints can you roll with 44,000 lbs of product???

    No, you can thank Richard M. Nixon for the war on drugs, witch more or less is because of all our vets from the Nam coming back strung out on DOPE. and the way you word it is as through your annoyed by it, what and you believe they are good.

    I understand why the Vietnam soldiers did the Heroin and pot but, I never would... I would rather have all my senses so that I can avoid being killed. I about got into an argument with my Dr. a couple years ago, when he said that the Iraq war is just like the Vietnam war... The only thing that relates, in my opinion, is the "you don't know who your enemy is" link. Urban warfare is a lot like jungle but in the sense that the enemy can be right around the corner but, in the jungle, the enemy can be right in front of you. I would rather fight urban than jungle but, trained to either. They were still training jungle warfare right up until 2006, I think it was than. They just slowly incorporated the urban warfare along with the jungle warfare, but very little.

    Not being political...but you have to realize that marijuana is not legal according to the Feds...and if it were legal...people will abuse the system just like they do now but it will be legal to do it...that's all I'm saying..so since this is an open forum I'm speaking my mind...sorry I'm not a pot smoking trucker...

    I do not smoke pot either. But when these threads go political they are shut down or moved. Just trying to keep that from happening. There's a whole politics section for that.

    Well then I'll leave this thread for you guys to chat it up about nothing if I can't interject my feelings on the subject...I guess it's not a free forum if they'll shut it down for becoming political....but then again...how is mentioning the legalities of marijuana being political?

    The political part Joseph was talking about is not the drug or marijuana part,, it's the O-care part you ended your initial post with.
    Tho I may agree with you 100%, that really has no place in this thread, since it is political and is off topic.
     
    d o g and joseph1135 Thank this.
