How We Protect At-Risk Kids.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

All other qualifications being equal between two candidates, I absolutely would want the person without the history of driving impaired. 


I mean, think about it, you hire the guy, he comes to work impaired, kills another employee with the forklift.  You think the family might scream for your head if they knew you hired a guy with that known history?

You do understand what the word never means right?

Do you understand the meaning of the word risk?

Based on that, you should be fired because you drink beer now and again.

The risk is simply too high.

GOD DAMN IT ROGER YOU BEAT ME TO IT!

Well, he won't state whether or not he feels that alcohol should be banned, only that the lobbyists (rather than history) make that an unlikely scenario.

Because acknowledging that would force him to say that either his once a month beer night is illegal or conversely that marijuana should be legalized. His one, maybe two, coffee a day addiction might be lost in some legal limbo there.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Now, mind you, I don't doubt that if a serious bill to prohibit alcohol AGAIN were to be considered, "Big Alcohol" would go out of their way to stop it, as would all the hard drinking DC politicians and lawyers, and, well, practically everyone.

You know, because Prohibition doesn't work, because the people want what they want. If they want to smoke something that is less addictive, and less damaging healthwise and communitywise overall, then why should it be any more illegal than alcohol or nicotine?

But that makes too much sense. Marijuana is damaging to communities. Has nothing to do with the fact that it's illegal and there's a market for it, thus bringing in unsavory types who will sell it.

I've known people whose lives were destroyed by marijuana getting caught with marijuana.

The word is impossible.  It's a non-starter, not even worth consideration for discussion.

That doesn't make any sense.  Alcohol is legal.  If in some magical universe it became illegal again I'd just stop using it, no big deal really. Marijuana should never be legalized.

Speaking of things that don't make sense.

Drink more coffee!  The world makes much more sense when it is vibrating all around you.

First cup's free, huh?

It's all free for me, thanks to YOUR hard earned federal tax dollars.  Thank you for being a Good American!

Free at my work too for the same reason. So, I guess it balances out. Difference is you don't see me being smug about it.

Could I get you to elaborate on this point?

You guys realize that you're basically giving RWHN a handjob, right?

That's what these threads are.  Handjobs for RWHN.

What's wrong with giving handjobs if you enjoy it?

Not a thing.  Carry on.

On which point?  You need to be more specific.

So is THAT what Dok was going for when he started it?


Ew.
