EVERYTHING should be legal.

[Nitro Express]

I think we are seeing too much regulation becomes un-regulation in the end. Just look at Securities and Exchange Commission who investigated Bernie Maddoff several times and decided he was clean. Also, it was discovered high ranking SEC officials were just camping out in the office all day looking at porn and doing no regulating. They probably were just filling out govt. forms to look like they were doing their job. Who knows but we have more government regulation now than ever and there seems to be more fraud than ever. All this regulation does is suck tons of our money and it seems to get in the way of the productive people in society more than the criminals who by the way, seem to be making a killing right now.

So I say just fuck it and make everything legal. If you die because of your own stupidity then we have just removed another stupid person from the overpopulation problem.

It will never happen, they make too much money putting us in jail. The best thing you can do to combat it is to move to my city and purchase a pandering license for 55.00 and stand on the streetcorner begging for money and making a nuisance of yourself, they know you have nowhere to live and out of spite wont throw you in jail because it will be doing you a favor. Illinois is getting ready to make medicinal marijuana legal and the cops here are telling so many lies about how its gonna cause tons of crime and such, like I cant walk 50 feet in any direction and buy a oz at any time of day. I cannot wait till my downtown area has a pot shop on every corner, and they are gonna allow you to grow either 3 or 7 personal plants. I cant friggin wait, I have a condition that requires the smoking of weed.

since the seatbelt laws went into effect ive been ticketed 3 times, like 200 bucks in the last what is it 10-12 years? I am happy paying that amount to not have to wear one, its worth it.

I think the biggest problem I have with any of the laws are the drug laws, and I seriously dont do any bad ones, i might smoke a doob every once in awhile thats it. but the drug laws are fucked up, drugs are plentiful and the war on them is a joke, its just a drain on our society to pay for it. now the big thing is perscribed drugs and im sure the pharmesutical companies are happy as hell about it. the fucking doctors are the biggest drug dealers out there. I guarantee you I can call my doctor and get anything I want today, have that shit in my hand within an hour. Its fucking rediculous.

the fucking prisons are full of people selling weed and its putting billions in the cops,cities,states,lawyers,courts pockets and we are paying for it. over a basically harmless drug. I wouldnt say its completly harmless though.

we need laws, they just need to be the right ones.

[sadaist]

Legalize gambling, prostitution & marijuana. I'm all for it.



ps - and fishing without a license please. I have been busted several times for having incorrect species stamps or wrong season type crap. Using 2 poles with 1 license. (1 was bait, the other I was lure casting)

[FORD]

Can't agree with the fishing thing - because overharvesting is threatening god knows how many fish species.

So there should be a way of regulating it. Though worrying about a single fisherman using 2 poles is a bit of overkill, I'll admit.

[ELVIS]

How good ole population reduction ??

How good ole population reduction ??

You mean like a Prescott Bush eugenics program?

(Start by eliminating the BCE)

The commercial fishing quota system is WAY overboard with graft in government. The people in charge want to kill the little guy so it will be just the corporation processing boats that can legally fish. The big corporations pay kickbacks and donate election funding to the same politicians in charge of making the rules,and well, you know the story.......

[FORD]

Yeah, but that's a whole other thread there on the corporate influence in government thing. Going back to Elvis's idea of adopting a "population reduction program", corporate lobbyists would be my second choice for a target, right after the BCE.

Each state should probably have their own fish & wildlife advisory board, with membership made up of biologists, environmental scientists, non-corporate fishermen and Native American tribes. No corporate shills allowed.

[twonabomber]

Ohio's busted a few big fisheries over the last few years.

war on drugs...end it.

i'm tired of people trying to legislate morality.

[knuckleboner]

nah. it can get a little boring sometimes. if a fisherman wants to start using his other pole to kill time, who am i to judge?...

It's not so much getting a license. It's that it isn't that easy. License plus 500 different endorsement stamps for areas, fish, seasons, etc... It gets crazy. And when I got busted with 2 poles, they acted like I was harvesting 1000's of fish illegally. I think I maybe had 1-2 fish on a stringer. Had 1 line out with bait, and while I watched the tip of the pole for a bite, to kill time I cast out a lure with another pole. $400 ticket. Fucking bullshit.

The flaw in this thinking is that the imbecile who is overindulging more often than not does NOT die from his/her own stupidity. Instead, it is the family minding their own business, making their way either to or from a social event that gets broadsided in their minivan by the imbecile, that end up getting planted. Collateral damage caused by irresponsible behavior is far and above the means of expediency or any sense of practicality, let alone basic common sense.

It's also easier to collect taxes from corporations than it is from the mom and pop style small business...

It would be...... if they didn't use loopholes to NOT pay them.

I have to punish you with imprisonment, torture then quartering after my New Regime's military tribunal finds your statements in contempt.

After all, in NitroWORLD, that would be legal.

No what we really need to do is re-regulate everything deregulated since Reagan's Decade of Greed on up thru Clinton and starting with the FCC's rules on media ownership, doing away with cookie-cutter radio. I nearly lost it the other day driving, cuz I fuckin hate The Eagles and Jackson Browne okay.. no sooner than I hear the first chords to "Take It Easy" come on The Sound 100.3, that I hit that station jog button.. that it's starting again on JackFM 93.1 here in LA. like within seconds of me switching stations.

Fuck CBS/Viacom and their whole ball of shit radio. It should be legal to start up your own FM radio station within a micro-bandwith, say 93.1.1 FM ScrewJACK FM "we play shit that don't suck" etc..
