I read this article on Todays THV http://www.todaysthv.com/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=140646&catid=2
Concerning Teen using Drugs & Alcohol about how easy it is for kids to get drugs these days, they simply go to a dealer. The dealers don't check ID, they check the money! Many dealers also offer a wide range of drugs. As far as alcohol goes, the kids have to have access to it or access to someone willing to buy it for them. But do not doubt for a minute that those wanting to find drugs or alcohol will eventually find it.
You have companies offering free drug tests. Law-makers wanting to pass laws that invade your privacy. Like we really have any semblance of privacy these days anyway. Parents & teachers trying to get teens to make the right choices when everyday businesses are making deals the border on illegal and unethical. What? I left out immoral? Well that is more of a personal preference. Parents don't always make the right choices, how can they expect their kids to make the right choice? Parent/s tell kid don't tell lies! Kid sees parent/s tell lie, maybe more than one.
Youtube, hosted a 'ask the president" feature event. Internet users got to post their questions and then everyone could vote on the questions that were posted. The top 100 questions were concerning the war on drugs, drug policy reform/change. Repealing the prohibition on Cannabis & hemp. Legalize Hemp, it has 1,001 known uses and on a per acre basis, produces more natural resources than trees. Still it is lumped in with the other drugs because it has a minute trace of thc in it. Apparently youtube allowed the president to choose which questions he answered. They also had specific categories that they wanted for the questions to be asked. Now if you want to avoid a certain topic, man up grow a pair and say, "I'm not discussing that today." However, the categories offered didn't allow for the single most popular category. That category was Cannabis/drug Reform/legalization. Obama promised us "Change you can believe in!" Well, we got change; politicians now ignore the voters on the internet as well as real life.
It pisses me off. There are people being sent to jail that are seriously ill. They use Marijuana to treat the symptoms. Put that person in jail and the taxpayers have to pay for their pot! NO, hat would be cheap! Prisoners are not allowed to us cannabis while incarcerated. The taxpayers have to pay for the drug companies pills and you know the government is being charged out the ass for medication by the drug Companies.
Obama blew of 99 of the most voted questions! He answered the question posed by a member of L.E.A.P., Law Enforcement Against Prohibition is a group made up of former LEO's & Judges. Pretty cool, even the cops are tired of the war on drugs. So the interview is almost over and final they ask the question, Obama didn't even really answer the question! He tap danced around it. Though is did profess that eh personally is against any type of legalization of Cannabis or any other drug for that matter. So the truth is he doesn't care what the citizens of the US want, you will get what he decides you can have!
Well, that's it for today! We have learned that politicians are not to be trusted no matter what! If you want a law changed better be prepared to be stuck in limbo for a while
