I thought "banning things" is "folly"?

Has banning anything worked yet? Did banning alcohol work? What do you think banning handguns would accomplish?

It would chafe the hell out of rednecks and wingnuts. And that' makes it all worth it for me. I just LOVE watching them lose.

It's no wonder that libertarians want to legalize drugs. That way they can point and say, 'why regulate anything?'

I can hear 'em now, "You can pry my little penis extender out of my cold dead hands!" Friggin' jack offs.

Other than cannabis, I have to call bullshit on that one for several reasons, Whell.
Liberals want nothing to do with legalizing hard drugs. Overwhelmingly they see drug addiction as more of a health issue than a criminal issue. I don't have any idea where you're getting your info but the notion that liberals want to decriminalize drugs is just a crazy idea.

Cannabis should not only be legal, but required.

Maybe we can print some new congressmen and senators with one of those 3D printers. Would be about as effective of a government.

Seeing how there is legislation on the books that bans non-metal weapons already. What do you propose we do? A “Double Ban”
