baited? I have no idea what you are talking about. When you bring something up it should be valid to the issue at hand- not just generally valid. So again, who cares what kind of people support it? If drug users support protecting America, does that make protecting America wrong? Please explain to me how your point had anything logical to do with the issue, because quite frankly it just seems to be a "bad people support this so it must be wrong" sort of thing- which begs the question, since they are only "bad people" because we have criminalized drugs, and the crimininalization of drugs happens to be the topic under discussion. So unless you have some logical reason for saying what you said, I'm calling on your logic, which is not baiting- although it may annoy you if you can't logically defend what you said. You keep saying you think you've had more experience than the rest of us- but quite frankly that's a bit condescending and silly, don't you think? You don't really know any of us. After all, most of us have had experience with the addiction of at least one relative, SOME of us have work related experience, and you are the one saying bizarre things like "it takes 20 years to get addicted to alcohol." So, while I'm sure you think you know a whole lot more than the rest of us, your posts certainly don't make it appear that way.
