Rohrabacher was going crazy in his speech. He sounded like a maniac.

He didn't say anything that isn't true.

Well it doesn't change the fact he sounded crazed. This is atrocious legislation.

If you can come up with one argument based on logic and sound reason why people should be punished for producing HEMP, then I will eat my hat.

It encourages disrespect for the laws and authority.

Also then Simfan, would you defend prosecuting people who housed runaway slaves? As that certainly disrespected law and authority.

This is racist, to say nothing of its hyperbolic strawman-ism. The law also deals with marijuana for consumption, but that's beside the point.

I'd oppose legalising marijuana even if it brought us world peace and ended Eritrean independence- it's a matter of eroding authority. We took a position, and it would be perilous not to stand by it.

Do I really believe that? I don't think so. But I oppose marijuana legalisation, health effects be damned. That is my honest belief. It is a matter of people challenging authority without consequence for their own selfish pleasure. Slavery and civil rights were other matters entirely.

I'm amused but rather disturbed people think I would support keeping something illegal for no reason whatsoever besides the fact it was already illegal. I don't actually believe that. Do I think that sometimes? Perhaps, but it's not what I would ever deem a logical opinion. But do I think legalisation for medical purposes is often a complete sham? I do.

It's sad to see that the house is more interested in supporting pushers than cops. We now know for sure where Speaker Boner got his tan.

Crops don't need the support they get anyway, so I guess that's a plus.
