After reading through this thread it's come to my attention that there are people posting in the same thread under two different handles.

You may not know so I'm just going to leave it at a warning, but it's against the TOU to do this.... I'm not mentioning names, I'm just asking that it stops

Yea but this is modern slavery.
A lot of people died in American civil war to abolish slavery, yet we still have primitive redneck controlling and enslaving us. They didn't give up on slavery and exploiting minorities and poor.

Biden daughter was caught snorting cocaine, I bet he and Obama are both snorting cocaine on regular basis.


Anyone read "The Road to Serfdom"?

ok. i see now.

ok. i see now.

I see now. you make some good points anarchist.

By the way I totally agree with you that the majority is brained washed, and that people do get violent to change things.

unfortunatley most people are just sheep. It is an I.Q., and education thing... and Not formal education. I talking about education that only your folks, or other free minded people can give you. It is hard to control a smart and defiant person, but dumb people are easy. Just give me 30 minutes in a room full of dumb people, and I'll have them following a religion I made up on the spot. And waring a funny paper hat. Hell, sunday school teahers do that for a living.

The civil rights movement is about unbrain(not a real word) washing the majority, so they see the truth about what is happening in america. Unfortunatly, when the majority in many places, "wakes up", violence does occur. Also, the civil rights movement is about peace, but it has had lots of violence caused by police, which is just as wrong.

I am aware that we do not have true freedom, but we have it pretty good. This is where the problem occurs. People should not be happy with, what I like to call, "The illusion of freedom". We really dont have free choice. we have multiple choice. We are free to choose from one of the options that is given to us. There are many other ways of doing things, other than the ways we are given, but we are brainwashed from birth not to see them. This all started here in the U.S. after the civil war when states rights pretty much went bye bye.

Luckily for me, both my parents taught me to question authority and ask why.
I't seems to me that all of the people here ask why as well, which is why the I.C. community is on the forefront of the current civil rights movement in america.

"If you ask, "why?" about a rule, and someone says, "because I say so".... well thats the first sign of a stupid rule." George Carlin. The greatest 20th century realist philospher.

"There are a lot of poeple who wanna talk about freedom, but when they see a truely free individual it scares them." Denis Hoppers character Billy, in Easy Rider. 1969

I want to say something about the thread subject, it's Obama's hypocrisy. Most of you have probably voted for him like myself because some of his promises to change and other positive shit and his promises to end the war in Iraq. He said war on drugs was an utter failure but recently he decided to fund Mexico government to fight Mexico cartel. Because of this there will be more violence and nothing will be accomplished. I just can't believe how big hypocrite he actually is to say one thing and then continue fighting drug war.

I am sorry if this insults some of obama fans but so far Obama was an utter failure and now I see why a friend of mine didn't want to vote - he said all politicians are same and they just lie to get elected. Obama already have his hand soaked in blood of innocent by his support and continuing funding of drug war not just here in US but in other countries as well.

So your friend believes Bush and Obama are exactly the same? Whatever.

I can't stand people who say that with a straight face, it's obviously complete bullshit. Bush and Obama are polar opposites in intelligence, inquisitiveness, morality, political views, speaking ability and personality. IMO your friend represents precisely what's wrong with this country, fuck him if he doesn't vote. I bet he complains all the time too, yet he doesn't lift a finger to make his country a better place. There is NOTHING more anti-American than that.

I have to agree with you. As for Bush and Obama being the same, I don't recall Bush asking anyone to back off raiding dispensories. I recall Bush pushing and complimenting the raids....

And what kind of person would form an opinion based on 70 days on the job? Foolishness at best.

we do have to give the guy a few years before we can call him a failure. Most everyone thought regan was a great president at the time, but his actions are one of the reasons we are fucked now. Everyone knows Bush jr. was a bad president, but depending on how his war effects the long term future, we might view him differently later.

It will take probably 3 years before we see the results of obama's plan. And we will see postive, or possibly negative, results of his work for years to come.

If I believe in anything it is balance. For every good thing done by obama for the united states, there will most likely be bad results for some people. (rich assholes get the shaft this time for a change.)

Bush and Obama are so different it is not even funny. Obama is at least twice as smart, as bush. Also obama is black if yopu havn't noticed.

each paragraph is a response to a different post... Kinda :)

Anarchist is just speaking true to his name. he just doesnt like any control. thats ok

yes, the people do have overall control of the governmnent, guaranteed by the bill of rights. Americans are born with these ideals and will defend them in the system until the system becomes tyranical. Then thats what the second ammendment is for.

Our governmnent though, is not tyranical. It has been close to tyranical many times since WWII, but when the people pushed hard enough the government gave in, because the government is the pepole. This people vs. government idea in america is invalid. It is just people vs. people. Any citizen has the right to go in to politics. Hence the Bush family.

You dont have to be rich to run for a city, or town postion. once you are in an elected government postition you can speak up and other people in the gov. will listen. It gives a lot more credibility to the other law makers. The more people we have in any level of government speaking up for pot the better.

No one in our government forgets about the civil war in our country, and they wont let it happen again. Look at the civil rights movement. We dont need violence. We just need civil disobedience.

:laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing:


Dude your holding on to rights that have be long gone for a long time. Bill of rights this and second ammendment that. Its all fucking paper and thats it. Ink and paper. I have not said this to piss you off or to say you are wrong. I just feel like you have to much faith in all this AMERICAN LAW crap.

The people are the ones that are being fucked and that sucks. Smokers and non-smokers. All Americans! Bush and Obama were put into power by the same people and are puppets of the powers that be......Sorry to say it but look around man. Media,Money,Power. Thats all that matters and those who get in the way get put in jail thats it.

With that all being said and mind u all of it is just my .02. So i am sure i will get "your wrong" ect ect. Just keep all of what i said in mind when the North American Union is upon us and our country gets sliced and diced and chopped up into little numbered sections and you have to wake up at 7:30am daily to check in via your hi-def tv or internet for workouts and shit like that. Its closer then you think........Tell me then how much control of "OUR" government we have then....:wallbash: Sorry so long

:laughing: Wake up! Don't you remember who you are my friend? So sad these people are so brainwashed by the gov that they can't see what is so easy to see. Bush and Obama are exactly the same as any other pres since the 20th century on. The people that become pres are the people who can raise the most money. Money is controlled by the Federal Reserve that is made out of thin air. Therefore, the system keeps itself in power. No one will ever be put into office that will change the status quo and if someone did get elected and started giving power back to the people, powers at be would either corrupt them or kill them. I know the Electoral College is supposed to vote in the favor of what the people voted but they don't absolutely have to. This is where corruption can break the people's votes. Until we have direct democracy our votes will never be truly represented. I laugh inside at people who watch Bill O Reilly and CNN call themselves patriots. I am a patriot my friend I believe in what this country was founded on and was in George Washington's days but we are nothing but Nazi's now. Everyone who is in this country and agrees with the wars over seas and the wars on all our rights are only supporting their Hitler. Now different at all we just think we are different than other people cause we are white or American or whatever. But in all truth we are all the same as any Asian, German or any other person on this Earth. When people start realizing we are fighting ourselves and we are all the same we will be a stronger force than any military ever. I also believe in working on the black market cause if not all the taxes you pay go to support corrupt gov agencies like DEA, ATF, Fed Reserve, etc... That is how we fight them cut them off from our money. If we don't buy from them or give them our money or time, they won't profit and stay alive. No violence reqiured to do that

Nice points, bushmasta. People will start waking up as they start losing their jobs. Black martket is going to flourish as the governments tax us to death to maintain their growth.

^ This is where anarchist's point shines through.

I am all for peace, but if the time comes I will fight. If one branch of government threatens the average american's civil liberities they will take it to to another branch. It is not until all three branches act directly against the majority, in a tyranical matter that violence is required. You guys can demonize the U.S. Government, but they are not like the Nazi's. They are not Stalin, or Mau. Civil disobedience will work until that point. I mean, have you heard of the hollocaust, or the great leap foward? That is what a bad governmnet does.

Also, you must not live in the south, man. When people get their freedom threated here they fight.

Let me put it this way. If the government starts to be truely evil, like the nazi's, or Stalin; then I will start killing them. I will continue to do so until they kill me. I live in south, and I know that the majority of the people in the south will do the same. It has happened before. I have enough guns to supply my whole block, and my collection is smaller than many people's that I know. "Dont mess with texas" is not just an anti-littering slogan. I consider trying to take away guns a tyranical act. As long as Americans are armed to the teeth we will be free.

It wont happen though, because the governmnet will only go so far. They know people in the U.S. will just kill them, if they go too far. We are brainwashed to a point, but we are all still just wild animals. We are just by far the smartest animals. You cant fully tame an american. If you take the all the freedom away from a person, that has grown up with it, then they are like a caged wild tiger. They might play it cool for a while, but if you let your guard down they will eventually kill you to get free again.

Wake up and become a conservative libertarian? No fucking way that's going to happen. Believe me, I get where you're coming from, and I've heard all the arguments many, many times. There's only one problem, it's a completely unrealistic philosophy.

I woke up the day the Bush Administration passed the Patriot Act. I watched the Republican party out CIA agents, spy on EVERYONE's electronic communications, lie us into two wars and piss all over the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Half of America has been asleep for 8 years, but certainly not me.

lol, this forum is hilarious, i dont think anarchist's point was to say that obama and bush r the same as in their outlooks and there views, but rather they're the same as in they r just both politicians who will say whatever people want them to say in order to get elected to office (aka appealing and saying things that appeal to certain groups within our society just to get their vote) and im neither republican or demo libertarian nor conservative.

All the stuff the bush administration is bullshit, but they are also now under investigation by world courts. And 8 of them are already in federally prison. Some more of these assholes are definetly going down. The people are pissed at the bush administration. Obama closed down guantanamo bay. The change back to real democarcy is happening now. It is just overshadowed in the news by the econemy problems. Give it time.

oh yes. and a politican is a politician, and will say what ever the fuck we wanna hear. We just gotta keep the pressure on them to make good.

This just gave me an idea. We should hire up the mafia to make sure that AIG, and all the other companies that got bailed out, pay us back. They can just start braking the knee caps of bank presidents that get to greedy. hahaaa

It's nice to see like-minded people! I used to be a pretty right leaning conservative until I started paying attention to what the last administration started doing.... For a party who is supposed to be about less government and less interference/intervention, they sure didn't act that way! Creating the biggest government office in history and spying on our own people?! As an ex-military member, I was also shocked to see them out a CIA agent and not even care, people who give up a big part of their lives to serve the country.

I can't believe what I see these days.... partisanship is so bad that you hear many leaders of the minority party hoping to see our current administration fail, but WE'RE ALL PART OF THE SAME COUNTRY! I understand they are not happy because they are no longer in power, but that doesn't mean that they should want our country to fail just so they can reclaim power; that to me is is some "anal poisoning" as a certain dumb-ass had the audacity to say.

Hash Zeppelin, sorry to let you down but statistically our government is not any better then Nazi government was.

It's all good on paper but in real life we can see that our government put more people in jail then communist China. At least they are not hiding behind so called best democracy on whole earth like our government does.

I am not against any person, just against false ideologies that enslave us and ruin our lives. So I am not against Obama as person, I just stated some facts that so far he was an utter failure since he's continuing failed wars on terror and war on drugs. All those wars are killing and ruining many lives here and in other countries.
We have a lot of mess to clean here first...

Many people don't vote not because they are ignorant but because of corrupted leaders that lie and give false promises. It's not good to call them anti-Americans, they are good people and we must stop blaming each other and continue defending government and politicians.

I still wonder if Marinol really works or not. I have had patients say that it doesn't work.....anyone tried it?


I had a family member that died of cancer. After they were gone I took a recommended dose and it did nothing so I doubled the dose. Guess what? It still did nothing.....
