Bill O’reilly has another “tide goes in, tide goes out moment” tonight.

[Yavapai]

While bloviating about the Mexican drug war, he predicted that “Mexican President Felipe Calderón would not be re-elected”. Showing his abysmal ignorance about Mexico and it’s politics because the Mexican Constitution only allows for the Presidents of Mexico to serve one six year term.

He then said that U.S. Troops would have to intercede sometime in the near future and that each time someone here uses cocaine or marijuana they are enabling the drug cartels to kill more women and children.

1. And neither will Ronald Reagan.

:-)


I wonder when Bill O'Reilly stopped beating his wife?

2. Eh, I agree with him on the drug cartels bit

Which is why government regulated/sold legalization would be better than letting drug cartels run the show.

[The Doctor.]

3. You're half wrong.

Everytime someone smokes weed, it has a more than fair chance of being homegrown. Not a damn thing I've touched in ten years wasn't grown by friends.

Other than that, we're 100% in.

[Gamow]

4. Nice hypercube

now where can I get some of that homegrown? :D

6. You're speaking anecdotally

Like it or not, drug cartels DO traffic in marijuana. Just because you personally don't know anybody who buys weed from a mexican drug cartel doesn't mean it doesn't happen. So no, I'm not wrong at all.

10. Let people grow their own at least. People might not like weakened government pot. nt

5. And Every Time Someone Frequents A Speakeasy During Prohibition, They Enable The Gangsters

How did we solve THAT problem almost a CENTURY ago?

[Scuba]

7. +1

8. +2

9. ...and everytime someone has sex with their SO they're supporting

the child sex slave trade in the countries Rush Limbaugh likes to visit.

In case anyone missed it.

11. As far as pot goes...

decriminalize it, take it off the Schedule list.

Price drops dramatically, no more "pot cartels" using death squads. The only reason this crap goes on is because there is so much money to be made...take away the financial reward, the crap ceases.
