to the starter of the thread, where have you been lately? 15 states have decriminalized/legalized for medical use, California wasn't that far off from all-out legalization, I'd say we are being taken seriously and I'd call that progress. We have a long way to go and a lot of ignorant people to enlighten, including some in our own movement as I pointed out in my last post, but we are getting there. The advancements are undeniable, and victory is inevitable it's just a matter of when, not how, and it won't be long now.
I've stated my concerns with the legalization movement in no uncertain terms a couple of times already in this thread. Take a look for yourself, I'd rather not repeat them unnecessarily.
Did that poster act in the way you suggested we should act here? And if not why did no one call him on it until I just did?
While he used some...coarse verbage... he did not direct his statement at anyone in particular, nor did he specifically call out one group. You, on the other hand, directly attacked him and did everything that I respectfully requested people who decided to post in this thread NOT do. I understand that you are passionate about the issue, but so is everyone else, and we've managed to keep it on a friendly level thus far. Try not to rock the boat too much, yeah?
