I seem to remember Beck making fun of potheads way back when.

Apparently he's gotten new marching orders designed to get more independents to vote republican.

*yawn*

Ron Paul is one of the many people that writes his "marching orders"...things just go right over your heads...its funny :D

I hope you do realize that you attacked the author of the quote without attacking the argument itself. That is a logical fallacy in argumentation.

And is unscientifical even a word?

It's odd that all of these folks are coming out for legalization all of a sudden. (Felipe Calderon. Vincente Fox, and now Glenn Beck). The other night I heard Michael Savage starting to support the idea of legalization. He basically threw out a trial balloon to see what his listeners thought. I didn't listen to the whole segment, but most listeners were against it. Sometime ago when he threw out the "What do you think about getting out of Afghanistan" trial balloon, most several callers said "yes" and it wasn't long before he went hardcore against the war. Anyway, not sure what's going on. And 00_Pete sounds a lot like "Interested Participant". Nothing good or bad about that. Just an observation.

Why would Glenn Beck get his marching orders from a terrorist (Glenn Beck's words, not mine)?

Ok, so why not legalize all drugs? Why stop at pot? He admitted it's causing all the violence at the border, so it's the principle of it, not the effects of the drug that matter, right?

Perhaps it's just semantics but I prefer "decriminalization" to "legalization". The latter just implies sanction to me while the former is neutral. Just my $0.02.

No, it is most certainly not "just" semantics.

"Decriminalization" says only that the government should remove the contraband status of drugs. It does not imply that the government should have anything to say about them beyond that.

"Legalization" implies that it is the job of the government to declare plants legal or illegal. It is certainly not the government's job to make these pronouncements at all, and nobody in the liberty movement should be calling for them to "legalize it".

That verbiage assumes - and implies - that the whole war on drugs is a legitimate function of government, and that we ought now to stop it - but for the simple reason that it's not working, and not because they never had the authority to engage in this murderous, thieving, illegal jackassery in the first place.

So did Hitler. Beck is an Israel Firster. He could give two shits about this country; abortion; gays; communism/socialism, or any of the other stuff he pretends to either oppose or support. Its all dramatic noise. He has only one agenda: support for the Israeli government and its war mongering.

The government will be able to tax and regulate the marijuana business with “legalization” (that's why some people favor it), and not as able to do so with its decriminalization.

Decriminalization of what, exactly?

A lot of decrim bills only decrim possession and not growing or distribution... things which are REQUIRED for possession to take place.

With cannabis being illegal, you have to imagine that as being the ultimate form of regulation, they have regulated it out of existence in any legal form. By legalizing it like California wants to do, it is actually vastly decreasing the amount of regulation on cannabis since it will be legal for individuals to posses and grow. There may be a taxation structure in the legal market, but that is less regulation than having a fine or prison time for possession and growing. That is much tighter regulation.

Not to mention total decriminalization is NEVER ever going to happen in our current environment, I mean, you are literally asking the government to regulate basil and cilantro more heavily than cannabis.. not gonna fly.

This plan i speak of? Sure, i guess you can call it that.

Notice how so many people seem to be converging to the same spot...slowly and steady, this is the key. Pay attention to Ann Coulter, Rand, Palin, Napolitano, Bachmann, Stossel, Beck, and many other...if you pay attention you will notice they all seem to be converging to the same spot ;)

Rand and Napolitano, for example, were guests on Alex Jones, Napolitano even called Alex Jones "the Great Alex Jones" and yet Palin is associating with them, small but important details such as this just go over people´s heads :)

Why would Glenn Beck get his marching orders from a terrorist (Glenn Beck's words, not mine)?

Everyone got to learn...besides, people such as Beck often say things that are over-the-top, its part of their job.

I care so little about what you think about me that i dont even have any kind of negative feelings towards you for hating me...this is how little i care. Its all about defeating the Hobo conspiracy, this is what is important :)

Just keep following the Plan Glenn, you are doing a good job. :)

Are you implying that it's somehow within the elite's best interest that cannabis becomes legal? My opinion is precisely the opposite, but this notion still interests me. Would you mind elucidating?

Presumably his argument would be something akin to 'opium is the opiate of the masses'. Of course, I don't really see the need for another one, since obviously arguing about mosques near the WTC site is the best opiate for the masses ;)

This is the "Good Guys" plan im talking about ;)

Its not the legalizing that is important, its about all sides (those that are against the NWO), following a plan made "behind the scenes", converging and forming a unified political front that is capable of winning.

I had in mind decriminalization of everything: possession, growing, and distribution. I agree that’s unrealistic, and upon further reflection and reading on the subject, I think you’re probably right. Good points.
