Legal to grow and possess illegal to sell

[Rob Roy]

You are wrong on so many levels.
BTW. You're building strawmen to support your strawmen

Are you saying you didn't propose making cannabis illegal to sell?

That you didn't fear without that restriction of no sales, that prices would drop to a point you didn't want them to?

That you didn't propose using prohibition in your own law proposal and using the force of government to criminalize consenting people from engaging in free trade?

You also dwelled on the topic of who can consent etc. in your own thread, did you derail your own thread when your prohibitionist proposal was called? Why yes, you did.

I realize you really want to beat me straight up in an argument, but you see you can't because you're not very smart, and you're a Prohibitionist too.

No offense, but don't you think your baby sitter is a little young for you?

I manage my company from home. No need for a babysitter. Guilty conscious?

 

[Rob Roy]

Good heavens you are so very didactic. For the past 50 years, MJ has been completely illegal. Now change is in the air. But there is still great opposition to any form of legalization. Why would legalizing growing prevent eventual total legalization? Is it all or nothing for you?

He proposed making cannabis illegal to sell, try to stay on topic okay?

Also, for thousands of years, cannabis was not government controlled. Taxing it and making it a "permission based" kind of privilege defaults to an external authority being the entity that has final say. That is a precedent I oppose. You own yourself and shouldn't have to get permission to do so, from anyone.

He proposed legalizing growing and smoking. Lets do that and worry about making people rich later.

*conscience

No, not a guilty conscience, my kids are all grown anyhow.

I haven't banged a babysitter since I was 16, I think she invited me over and was 17 at the time. Should I still bleed out slowly for that horrible act I engaged in with my girlfriend years ago or you willing to let it slide?

No, he proposed keeping it illegal to sell to protect the artificially high prices that arise FROM prohibition. He just wanted prohibition to work for him. I think he referred to it as "the dealer protection act"....

Let's worry about freedom and free markets....NOW !

Thats not what makes you a creep....
You are a creep on principle.

 

[Rob Roy]

My principles include the idea that free people own themselves and none of us own others.

Which part of that do you object to, Mr. Wishing a slow and painful death on others ?

The US doesn't have free markets. Just bullshit corporations that run shit. You want a free market, allow ANYONE to grow and sell whatever they produce with no regulation.

And yeah that would be nice but this is America... Land of the free and the home the bought.

 

[Fogdog]

He attempted to defend his sales restriction / prohibition as a way to ensure present price structure, which is artificially high due to prohibition. He wanted to maintain that, using force. I'm not going to bother to go back and search for it though. You can easily if you care to.


I oppose some people running other peoples lives. Nuancing (sic) or only dong it a "little bit" by advancing laws which default to a permission based form of legalization is not something I'm interested in. I'll admit I used to feel the way you do though.

My default position isn't that permission is required from an external authority for free and peaceful people to exist or interact. It's a presumption of authority, I don't grant to others and I won't enable it, if I can prevent it.

Government needs to butt out of cannabis, period.

I'm not interested in better treatment for slaves, I'm interested in ending slavery.

He's only advocated for legalized growing without trying to legalize sales. He's not advocating anything new other than removal of a restriction. Both growing and sales are not legal right now in many states and in federal law. He's only advocating to remove one restriction already on the books.

I get that you have some grandiose idea of free and peaceful people interacting together in a non-coercive manner and any restriction on freedom of action that doesn't harm others is the ultimate sin. But... is it all or nothing for you? Must the whole system change at once?

So you advocate staying out of people's lives. Sticking to this topic, I don't see how legalizing growing ahead of legalized sales is a greater imposition than the status quo. Explain how legalized growing ahead of legalized sales is a greater harm than what is already on the books?

I agree that the government / corporation cronyism is a problem.

Blind squirrel you have stumbled on a nut, congratulations.

 

[Rob Roy]

I only wish death upon pedophile fucks like yourself.

You never said which part of my principles you disagreed with.

Also, I'm not a pedophile, nor do I think it's something I can approve of. I don't wish death on you, a better ability to comprehend things on your part would be nice though.

At your age, you're probably still letting your testosterone do your thinking for you, isn't that what you said happens?

Cool, so until you start a successful revolution here in the US your entire argument is unrealistic. Thanks for admitting that and have a nice day.

You are correct, a more balanced person would just ignore your dumb ass and move on

do you believe a 13 year old can consent to sex with an adult?

Yes or No?

 

[mollymcgrammar]

Yes or No?

His answer is that it depends on the 13 year old

 

[Fogdog]

Been through this a few time have you? Actually, my bet is that he says something generic and obscure, kind of like the magic 8 ball.

 

[ChesusRice]

You sure seem to have a hard time accepting that some people developed the ability to control their own body before you claim people are capable of doing so.

he slips up most of the time while avoiding answering yes or no to the question of child sex.
He has advocated that 13 year olds can consent to sex with adults and also believes business owners have . A right to discriminate based on skin color

 

[sheskunk]

When I was 16 I was having sex with a 21 year old.

Pedophilia FTW!!

 

[sheskunk]

Sorry, you win. My grammar isnt up to par. My wife is a grammar nazi, she would be disappointed with me.

This is probably one of the only wins I'll ever get on this site. I thank you for allowing me that pleasure. I feel bad that it was at your expense though. I'm sorry.
