Students for Gravel » Mike Gravel says, “I would legalize marijuana.”

and did anyone see him in the pres. debate? I'll be back later to post a link to his performance - he was def. best in show.

good times all around!

I made a thread about his contributions to the dem. debate but it's for some reason or another been removed.

This looks like a cool candidate yea

SmokeSomeDoja · 05-03-2007, 08:31 AM

for being at a liberal college in san francisco, when this was brought up in my ethics class, a majority of people thought it a bad idea to have cannabis legalized. what a bunch of tools. fuck. can people not think critically about it? am i missing something that the anti-legalization/pro-criminalization crowd sees? what the fuck? or are these people simply idiots, like it the case with most issues?

verklingen · 05-03-2007, 08:44 AM

Well yeah, college is pretty much filled with idiots.

**Canuck Wisdom** · 05-03-2007, 09:28 AM

I hate when you try to make the arguement and folks are like, 'well, I mean it is a drug, so legalizing it isn't going to make the situation better.' Or something like that. Its not about whether or not its a drug, its not about the drug its about the plant.

Anyways, yea I watched a tonne of youtube videos of GRAVEL last night and this guy looks like an awesome choice for president, the only one out there telling the truth, straight up how it needs to be told.

Good stuff!

SmokeSomeDoja · 05-03-2007, 09:49 AM

all people need to do is look at a historic example of illegalization/criminalization of a drug.

alcohol.

when illegalized, all sorts of problems began.

it was less pure, and as a result the consumer payed in horrible health problems or death. organized crime like never before began and caused countless death, corruption, and destruction. and so on, and so forth. huge fucking waste of money.

what happened when it was legalized again?

it was no longer contaminated with crap, there was no black market and thus no organized crime to step in, and it wsa regulated properly.

edit: and i forgot a main point. alcohol consumption didnt decline significantly with prohibition. people consumed roughly the same amount as before, except they were criminals for doing so.

In this set of videos Gravel answers a direct question about Marijauna:

He was pretty funny on the Colbert Report last night. It's good to see a politician with a non-scripted sense of humor.

Here it is ^

Patrick Rue · 05-03-2007, 03:21 PM

I agree with comments in the first link.

President of the world.

SmokeSomeDoja · 05-03-2007, 03:26 PM

its refreshing when politicians tell the truth. because it never ever fucking happens. except for this guy and a handful of others.

**Canuck Wisdom** · 05-03-2007, 03:50 PM
