Dear Mr. Meyer… who you gonna call when someone breaks into your house?? The cops… that’s who! What are the people who break into your house looking for? Money and expensive portable items that can be easily traded or sold for drugs. The fact that I follow the law should not be construed as blindly supporting the law. I support people who need medical marijuana for legitimate medical reasons having access to those drugs. I VOTE to try to change the law, but as long as the only people who are getting airtime for their pro-drug views are a-holes, spouting drivel about the man keeping them down, no one is going to give the real story a second glance. The fact that our government considers 1 oz of Methamphetamine, Cocaine, Acid, LSD or Marijuana equally punishable is wrong in my opinion. This does not mean that because a law is unpopular in your circles that you do not need to abide by that law. In addition, for the record, I do not use drugs… but I support a change in the law.

And your comment “I’ll be so glad when all the war freaks and law and order scum bags and those special people who live to punish others because they don’t agree with them just die off and leave the rest of us alone…” is your opinion… please notice that I did not suggest that all the people with YOUR point of view should die. Who is the one who lives to be the punisher and hate monger now Mr. Meyer?

I do not support the war, but I support the troops forced to fight this immoral war. I will not condemn or spit on our returning war heroes ever. My votes are given to anyone running for office who opposes this war by the way. So instead of ranting with impudent rage against the “Man,” get educated, get motivated, get organized, and get the laws changed. This is America, where we have that precious power to vote, and yet so relatively few Americans exercise their right to vote. There are people in countries that have their hands amputated for voting against the incumbent, and then telling people for whom they voted (or who they will vote for)! They cut off the hand, because the fingerprints of the right hand are used to verify voter eligibility… no fingers no vote.

Do I pee on command? Well don’t we all??? Do you just soil yourself at work, or do you get permission to go to use the john? And my weird thoughts about freedom, liberty and the responsibility of those liberties… well they do count. The fact… no the privilege that we can have this discussion in an open forum was bought and paid for by… what did you call them… oh yes… “law and order scum bags,” who came before us and set up the structure of our great nation.

Let us suppose Mr. Meyer that a neighbor of yours decides that stopping for stop signs is for chumps… or that brandishing and firing a weapon in your neighborhood is within what he calls his rights… what then? Do you love anarchy and hate law and order so much that you would turn the other cheek while he or she crashes into your car, or fills your house full-o-lead? I think not. Your neighbor refusing to stop for a sign because he or she does not like the law is not so different from using illegal drugs because you want to. Mr. Meyer I suggest a trip to somewhere other than nice cozy American tourist destinations, to see what a lack of law and order looks like. I have been there myself, and I have seen with my own eyes the effects of U.S. drug money abroad. So don’t wag your finger at me and tell me that I am have as you put it “swallowed hook line and sinker the crap the government has put out about the war on drugs and what drugs do and where they come from…All wrong…” My Dear Mr. Meyer have you ever been outside of the comfort zone of your life? There are things to see out there that will turn your hair white, and drug money pays for much of it. I do not blindly believe everything my government tells me… but I also do not blindly believe everything people tell me that lean towards my beliefs either!

Change your world Mr. Meyer. We can vote against the War Mongers together. You know where I stand on this subject. Tell others where you stand, make a stand, get involved, and make a difference. I will borrow a quote… “A man who stands for nothing falls for everything.”
