Liberty runs contradictory to itself and that is hypocrisy. I don't believe in liberty. Only reason why you think liberty is right in this case is because it coincides to your opinion, whereas if that was something else that run contradictory to your belief, you would have refuted. Therefore, you're a hypocrite.

Ron Paul didn't educate himself; he made himself stupider.

My opinion?.. Try to thoroughly grasp politics before you speak, Will ye?
First things first; educate yourself on the origins of the Federal Reserve Bank/govt, it's goals and influences on NA's economy.

So you don't believe in liberty?.. So you're pro-militarization of the police? You're pro-martial law, you're pro-NDAA, you're pro-big government, you're pro-waiting taxdollars on useless projects without knowledge to the public, you're pro-inflation of the dollar, you're pro-ignorant, obedient and complient?

You do know how big of a positive impact the legilzation of marihuana has been in certain states? Criminality rates dropping, alternate and more successful treatment of cancer, Alzheimer, seizures, etc..

Sigh.. You had one good point last week. Seems you're back to being appalingly ignorant.

Haven't been here for five months, but Dimitri's still spouting nonsense. Glad to see some things never change.

Even disregardings its various medical benefits and focusing solely on recreational usage, legalization holds but advantages when it comes to protection of minors and consumers. Not to mention the decrease in bureaucratic effort and government spending.

You think you can end poverty, wealth inequality, prejudice, disease etc? You want to live a fantasy world, well, that it exists in your brain but not in the real world.

I believe in protection; if I see someone hurting himself with drugs, I'll protect him even it's none of my business.

Criminality rates dropping

(2014) Of the 1,561,231 arrests for drug law violations in 2014, 83.1% (1,297,384) were for possession of a controlled substance. Only 16.9% (263,848) were for the sale or manufacturing of a drug.

(2013) Of the 1,501,043 arrests for drug law violations in 2013, 82.3% (1,235,358) were for possession of a controlled substance. Only 17.7% (265,685) were for the sale or manufacturing of a drug.

alternate and more successful treatment of cancer

Oh really?

Marijuana is not safe:

Also, adding on your pro-liberty; you believe in free-tax and anti-capitalism since you're against wealth inequality. Legalization in paedophilia, incest, polygamy since you believe no one should stop others personal doing. Prostitution and pornography. Etc.

Delusional. It's not only possible, it's happening wherever people educate themselves on their civil rights and stand up against a oppressive authority. You're another victim of govt funded propaganda tactics.

Random statistics only showing arrests by possession of drugs, not marijuana specifically, neglecting the fact that the only dangerous thing about the medicinal plant is getting caught.

Any healthy foods for one that overly consumed is bad for your Health on the long run. The Same counts for marijuana. The link you desperately Googled only shows just that. Heavy abuse of marijuana damages langs and Brain functions.

Now, go look up individuals showing their Health improving by consuming hemp oil and vaporised marijuana. Go look up Any non-government funded research on the plant. Don't just desperately Google 'marijuana is bad because' to try and get a point on a topic you really know Nothing about

Polygamy and incest are no issue if all parties are adults and have full consent. Prostitution and pornography keeps sexually deprived potential ***-offenders from contemplating satisfying their Needs by force.

You are serieusly comparing marijuana to pedophilia? Haha..come on now.

Although Marijuana can be considered less worse than some other drugs, its negative effects on the organs are not to be ignored. That isn't the problem for me though; people can do what they want to their bodies, it's their lives. The reason its illegality is important is to provide some kind of protection against its effects on others. It's not foolproof law, but then again, there's no such thing.

Drink driving is enough of a problem without adding marijuana to the list; then there's problems with people growing farms and the smell. And that's significant in the UK, where nearby neighbours end up having their homes stunk out and the like. And with the NHS especially struggling, the last thing they need is more of a load to bear.

So stench is enough of a reason to make a plant illegal for use? The strong smell occurs when people are forced to harvest underground, growing hundreds of plants in a confined space. Users have to get in contact with shady dealers to get their green pain reliever, stress reliever, insomnia reliever, etc.

Alcohol is a real problem for the citizens, yes. Marijuana is a problem for the ruling class.

Lol, I'm fully aware of the wealthy's influence in a country's policies. The thing is, what you don't understand, is no matter how much of a socialist you are, corruption will always exist. I accept reality. I accept wealth inequality and authoritarian regime, even though I'm against it.

Random statistics only showing arrests by possession of drugs, not marijuana specifically, neglecting the fact that the only dangerous thing about the medicinal plant is getting caught.

It's not random statistics; here is a source: .

Any healthy foods for one that overly consumed is bad for your Health on the long run. The Same counts for marijuana. The link you desperately Googled only shows just that. Heavy abuse of marijuana damages langs and Brain functions.

Comparing food to a drug is fallacy. Besides, marijuana promotes young people to abuse it, which is why I'm against it. For the protection of young generation.

Now, go look up individuals showing their Health improving by consuming hemp oil and vaporised marijuana. Go look up Any non-government funded research on the plant. Don't just desperately Google 'marijuana is bad because' to try and get a point on a topic you really know Nothing about

I already said that I'm pro-marijuana for medical purposes.

You're a pro-liberty so you should support anything that is personal and consistent with freedom.

Pedophilia involves acts without consent. How the hell are you comparing child molesters to a medicinal plant that caused 0 cases if agression. And what you're talking about is anarchism, not conservative libertarianism. I never said there shouldn't be Any form of government at all.

As for your post above; aloe Vera thoroughly cleans out your digestive system. Excessive consumption can cause intestinal cancer. Aloe Vera, just like marijuana, is a medicinal plant.

You're against big government, yet you decide to remain ignorant and passive about progressive movements, that fight the establishment for a better future. Corruption Will always exist, indeed, yet we have the power to make full-blowen slavery and martial law hard to realize for our owners if we educate ourselves concerning civil rights, laws and regulations, government ponzischemes and injustice done by pigs, Carerull not to be manipulated by the media into growing dissent towards the people that are actually good. Naming whistleblowers, libertarian politicians, etc.

The statistics are random, as in, it proves no point other than te fact prisons are stacked with non-violent marijuana users.
