Death by Drug War < Kid on Pot

[ñͤͣ̄ͦ̌̑͗͊͛͂͗ ̸̨̨̣̺̼̣̜͙͈͕̮̊̈́̈͂͛̽͊ͭ̓͆ͅé ̰̓̓́ͯ́́͞]

Even do i just read now rather than posting, i will say some things because im outraged...

I know that its harder to discern the extremes and consequences of the drug war in a 1st World country that imports drugs rather than manufactures, and has an expensive infrastructure (AKA Police-State) so that the violence is only exersiced from State to citizens... because also, money laundering from Cartels actually benefits your county's elite - how many banks would not have died if it wasnt for the liquid assets the Cartels provided for you?

But people (specifically you RWHN), if you would pull your head out of your 'Murrican egocentrical perspective butt, you could perhaps consider the effects of prohibition ON OTHER COUNTRIES.

USA's drug black market funds Mexican and South American Cartels... the USA also forces their stupid prohibition agenda upon the Mexican government, and what is the result?

BETWEEN 60,000 TO 100,000 DEATHS IN 6 YEARS

So fuck off.

Sincerely,

I brought this up earlier, but it was waved aside by RWHN.

Mexican kids aren't on the list to be protected when he says "the children".

I think i posted that from visceral outrage, and also a morbid curiosity on how he can rationalize an answer to that... also, offering up a larger context so that what is happening might become clearer, just in case anyone is sitting on the fence... prohibition isnt just about ruining individual marginal lives, but compromising the well-being of entire countries which might not be directly apparent.

It's worth it to RWHN.

The lives of people killed, locked up, and disenfranchised by prohibition don't matter as much as whether or not a small percentage of kids start smoking pot.

It's a perverse kind of myopia.

Weird. That was a response in a thread intended to be part of that thread, but it posted as a new thread...

Well, I hope you're all motherfucking proud of yourselves. The heat and pressure from all those bullshit drug threads have created a new form of life.

The drug threads are now multiplying independently.

[Q. G. Pennyworth]

I for one welcome our new drug thread overlords.

But just wait

You'll be having drinka with friends....BAM DRUG THREAD
You'll be enjoying the final season of Charmed again....BAM DRUG THEAD.
You'll finally get past all that opiate constipation, having a fine morning reading Voltaire on the can and pushing out 30g of purr fiber and BAMMOTHERFUCKINGDRUGTHREAD

THIS SHIT WILL MAKE HIMEOBS LOOK LIKE THE CIA.

YOU CANNOT HAVE THE RUNS LONG ENOUGH.

[Q. G. Pennyworth]

You don't want the drug threads to hear you talking like that!

You'll be enjoying the final season of Charmed again

Logical impossibility.  No-one could have enjoyed that the first time around, let alone again.

I have, sadly, seen this in effect. I have witnessed a dear friend* fall by the wayside. It is a horrible thing to see, someone crouched in the dark, sucking in that awful stuff. It hurts your brain AND your body.

IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL.


*I actually didn't like him all that much.

If I had the choice of either killing Hitler before he took power, or ending the terrible consequences of the drug war, I'd choose to punch everyone who watched Charmed and enjoyed it.

Some deep intuition tells me there's a connection there that would terrify the worst kinds of conspiracy theorists.

I enjoyed it but I was balls deep in a chick who liked it whenever it was on. It was a pavlovian thing I think.

[Q. G. Pennyworth]

OH SHIT, THERE'S A DRUG THREAD IN MY ROOM NOW.

[P3nT4gR4m]

I just smoked a bowl of drug thread and I feel strangely retarded
