lolol stop putting words into my mouth. First of all lets face it, this is a neocon vs the rest of the world debate. The discussion of Marijuana vs alcohol is just the tool. If you plan on winning a debate, don't try and flip some crap around and deem yourself a winner. I thought you were the party that stands for earning what you get. So earn it or drop out of sight. Drop out like Lazerdus long has, and selectricity, and longnshort, jeffa, Bill and a host of others who choose to twist and bend facts and then expect others to actually give them an ounce of respect in an online debate. hehehe We both made a case for distinguishing the two. We both agreed that alcohol is the more damaging drug both mentally and physically. My contention was that the majority of people who choose Marijuana over alcohol tend to be more liberal, more open to new ideas, more open to advances and changes and less religious too. We both have agreed that the Marijuana users tend to be more liberal. I am obviously on the liberal side. What on earth would make you think I would not have more respect for liberals and moderates weather they actually use marijuana or not?? Here is something that I don't get.... You yourself in previous posts have clearly said (in your own words ofcourse) that alcohol is the more damaging drug both mentally and physically. If alcohol is the most destructive by far which is what you just said, why should both substances be treated the same in legal quarters? Narcotics and even legally prescribed narcotics (except in rush limbaughs case) are treated more harshly in the legal system than both alcohol and marijuana.
