Try showin' a profit with your soul-saving trip, Chippy.....while the adults are talkin' practicality .
D.A.R.E. lied to you....like everyone else they lie to.

"Your obvious projections are topically irrelevant, Mr. (ahem) Dysfunctional.
Better is to turn away the the druggie invaders at the border to keep the damaging deadly drugs out.

Then active addicts need to go to treatment ...
... And the vast majority of people, who are potential addicts, need to go to therapy and Codependence Anonymous support groups and recover from their painful unresolved family-of-origin issues that are driving their addiction compulsion.
And, if that's not enough, the sad last resort of locking up illegal-drug offenders for a very long time is necessary to protect the rest of us innocents from being hit by one of these stoners behind the wheel, etc.
That's the right and intelligent thing to do.
And, only a druggie would employ the euphemism "relaxing" for getting stoned via damaging deadly drug abuse.
Your opinion on the matter is not in support of the truth of the vast damaging and deadly nature of so-called "recreational" drugs ...
... And thus your opinion on the matter is utterly worthless.
Your mind is completely controlled by your love for your drug.

What utter BS Mr. Dysfunctional just wrote!
Only 1% of the population abuses pot.
Better to eliminate that damaging and deadly drug than to turn 90+ % of the world into active addicts.
But the druggie doesn't care about the damage his "recommendation" would do to the lives of billions of kids, teens and adults.
No, this addict just wants his drug available to him whenever he wants it.
His presentation is all utter BS nonsensical addictive mindset erroneousness.
But for those who think there's too much unnecessary damaging stress in real life, then take appropriate political action to make appropriate changes in the geo-political socio-economic system like brave people do ...
... But getting stoned to cope is not an intelligent option ...
... Getting stoned to cope is a coward's way out.

Yep, all these painful unresolved controlled-by issues so many freedom criers harbor, that all they want is to be left alone to do whatever they want, and they don't care at all how many lives are damaged and killed by these drugs they advocate.
In a healthy and progressive society we don't let people just do whatever the hell they please.
No, we set limits on allowable human behavior with respect to rights ...
... And the realities of rights place the foundational right to life first, the secondary right to security second and the tertiary right to freedom third.
That's why you can't run around murdering people and crying "freedom, freedom, freedom to do whatever I want!" as your lame excuse.
The same is true for abusing damaging and deadly drugs: there is no cry for "freedom" that overrides the security and the very lives of others the abuser comes in contact with while stoned, endangering the lives of others.
Just look at the car crashes stoners cause, posted earlier.
Just look at all the criminal acts caused by stoners that Andy posted earlier.
You've got to be seriously warped to think that a healthy society will tolerate this obvious cause and effect horror drug abuse causes.
When people are stoned they lose their cognitive judgement ability -- that's a fact.
And then they get behind the wheel of a car and injure and kill innocent others, caused by being stoned.
That cause and effect will not be tolerated by a healthy society.
And, of course, a healthy society wants healthy members, so of course the overwelming vast majority, 99% of the population who are not pot abusers, aren't going to listen kindly to druggies shouting "Gimme my drug!!!" because of the damage these druggies do to others, as well as the sad damage they do to themselves.
Healthy people just can't advocate or accept that kind of self-destructive behavior permeating their entire society.
So the drug war exists to defend ourselves from the scourge of druggies and the deadly drug war they cause.
Druggies, money-lovers, the oppositional defiant disordered, and others with unresolved family-of-origin controlled-by issues aren't going to get to work out their doomed-to-fail "corrective emotional experience" on society hoping that they can be childishly allowed to do anything they want.
Life doesn't work that way, not in a healthy and progressive society, it doesn't.
Human rights realities won't allow you to behave in ways that are proven to lead directly or too tragically often indirectly to the cause of injury and death to others.
It's time for all of you with these un-resolved family-of-origin issues to grow the f... up, resolve those issues with therapy, and find a dynamic balance between security and freedom that respects the human rights, security and the very lives of others, and thereby take your proper role as a responsible and accountable member of the society to which you are supposed to belong.
Those who don't, those who put the lives of others at risk via bad behavior caused by drug abuse, are headed for the pokey, where they belong, thereby keeping the rest of us who wish to do the right thing by ourselves and and fellow human beings safe from malcontents like drug abusers.
A stoned one? Most likely.
Irrelevant and meaningless.
Irrelevant and meaningless.
Irrelevant and meaningless.
Irrelevant and meaningless.
Your HUGE projection is, as always, irrelevant and meaningless within the context you present it.
... Erroneous, meaningless, irrelevant.
Irrelevant, meaningless.

Your post here is essentially a carbon copy of your last one, so I'll simply refer you to my previous reply: Your Controlled-by Issues Are ObviousI'm sorry about how you must have grown up and I want to let you know you are not alone ...but we can't keep blaming our growing up on how we feel ... there comes a time we must put the past behind us and move on so we can become a happy and productive individual ... and I know this from 1st hand experience ... I left home the day after I graduated from high school and made a life for myself without abuse from an addictive parent ... and I never said people can do whatever they want and forget about the laws and common sense ... It's just that when it comes to our bodies I don't want anyone having control over what I do with it .... drugs have been illegal for many years and it hasn't stopped people from using and abusing them ... in fact, the problem has worsened .... so making them illegal hasn't done a damn bit of good now has it ... my issue is with control (the govt's) of taking away my ability to make a choice for myself ... and I already know what you are thinking .... that there are those out there who can't make a correct choice for themselves so we need to have the govt make those choices for them ... now that is scarry ...
