Holy Christ! Someone posted something about a song and it was really a ploy to be self-indulgent? here? On this sacred board? What are we going to do about that? Self indulgence. Last I heard that was a sin! So, let's summarize. We got a catchy tune sung by a cute guy, but that was bad because the poster had a self-interest in posting it. Shameful. I hope that Lucky is hanging his head today...oh, wait a minute, I am Lucky. And you know what? I liked that song, and I do feel lucky.

Legalize all drugs. No longer a criminal matter.

I agree with Branson, and think the interviewer really misses the point. Mary Jane may be a gateway drug, but if so, it's a gateway drug whether or not it's illegal. We really need to start thinking about drugs as a health problem, not a criminal problem. If we want to stop people using drugs, we need to offer treatment and support, not incarceration. We've created an incredible criminal class for no damn good reason while wasting billions and billions of dollars.

We are winning because we are winning the battle in the popular culture. The Supremes can ease the way or they can throw up obstacles but they can't very well rule that gay marriage is unconstitutional, lol, so in the end we will win, with 'em or w/o 'em.

Excellent report, Lurker. And a big thanks to Tomcal for allowing you to share.
