If a big time preacher can use Meth and no one cares then it must be okay, right?

That is the message being sent out to children all across our nation. Maybe the message really is if a Republican uses Meth it is okay but heaven help a young black man if they were to get caught with Meth. So all you kids quick become Republicans and you can get away with whatever you want as well.

1. It is more about money than color
If you're rich, you need rehab; if you're not, jail.

This little incident also proves my contention that the message they really want to send is do all the drugs you want as long as it's not pot.

2. As Steve Colbert stated ...
he also buys meth and throws it away - to keep it out of the hands of kids.

:rofl:

4. Most people know that individual drug use, BY ITSELF...
Isn't all that dangerously criminal. Just because someone does drug A that doesn't mean they are going to harm person B.

The real deal with drug use is that drug users are not good little puppets and aren't conformed enough.

Yes, drugs can be dangerous, but our laws against them are far more dangerous and harmful to the individual.
