Ah, but can you deny that you'd buy a bag/pack of joints at least once? Or maybe if you were just feeling particularly lazy that day?

And we all know how active those stoners are. They're so motivated!

Not a personal judgement against you, but I think 90% of the people who claim they'd just grow their own would probably make a single half-hearted attempt before trying to rationalize adding pot money to their budget.

Evolution isn't a theory. It is an observation.

The origin of species is, on the other hand, a theory.

At 10/12/09 05:40 PM, ASKDodge wrote: In the face of aggression and the threat of attack, is it justifiable to entirely destroy an enemy?

No.

Didn't some zombie jew say something about turning the other cheek?

Perhaps Islamic extremism reaches a point where it directly threatens western civilization or a rogue state obtains the means to cause irreparable damage to our infrastructure and way of life.

If Islamic radicals can topple our civilization, we've already lost.

In such circumstances, where a pre-emptive strike becomes not only a viable course of action, but a serious consideration, would you condone the use of violence to prevent an attack which may never come, or maintain neutrality in the face of aggression and instead opt for diplomacy?

It never becomes viable. Take 9/11. Invading Afghanistan beforehand would not have stopped it. The terrorists were here, in the states, living among us.

No.

All of the above.

Is it morally right to laugh at people who have bad voices or act, or do we laugh "with" them because they understand?

No.

Reality TV is crap. Just don't watch it. If you ignore it, if we all do, then it will go away.

Parents gave consent? Perhaps he wasn't retarded (ok, ok, maybe just slow), and suffered brain damage.

Weakest argument ever.

Why buy marijuana from sketchy druglords armed with guns when you can buy organic weed from the hippy co-op for cheaper? Hippies who'd be paying local, state, & federal taxes. Hippies who would be as heavily armed and law-abiding as any other small business.

This country needs jobs. This would create jobs overnight, not to mention removing violence and gangs from the picture at a level the war on drugs has never been able to duplicate.
