clarification of my previous statement

[IamTHEman]

apparently most EVERYONE took my agrument the wrong way. think of it like this. everyone has the freedom to chose for themselves (don't start with the 18-month old baby shit, NOT RELEVANT) if they can't choose NOT to start a drug they CANNOT regulate, don't start. if you want to get all the way to the core of the issue, people that can't control their behavior, actions, drug intake, whatever, are USELESS TO SOCIETY. nobody will miss them, because they are a LIABILITY. drug ABUSE is the catalyst in all these social debacles. my ENTIRE agrument is based upon self-regulation and MODERATION. once that line is crossed, shit goes down. i'm not disagreeing with that at all. i'm simply stating that if the average joe wants to do SOME recreational drugs in his spare time, let him be. the same as if you want to juice. there is a tiem and place for everything. open mindedness is all i ask for.

I understand your point. It's not a bash against you. It's a bash against a mindset.
And yes... I WILL cover the 18 month old baby "shit". Wait until your daughter dies by someone intoxicated like mine did when she was 2 1/2 months old, and tell me it's "shit".
So yes, a child is "RELEVANT" in this discussion.
When that guy started drinking... he didn't know he was gonna get so plastered that he was gonna kill someone, right?
So according to you, he has every right to start, because he was doing it in his "spare time".
Was it his intention to kill someone? No.
Would he have without the drug? No.
No one knows if they can handle a drug without taking it first. Even then, they don't know their limits without reaching them, and by time they find out, it's usually too late.
So the only way for people to not to get to that point is not to take them.
You ask for open mindedness... well.... let your daughter die by what you call "the average joe wants to do SOME recreational drugs in his spare time, let him be", and then be open minded about it.

PS: Again... not a bash against YOU... just saying try and look at it from both sides.
