Op2,

"......lmao I know I am...lol"

Well, if you didn't know that your behind was about to fall off, who would?

Of course The Donald is not going to be to receptive to someone like Yassmin Abdel-Magied with her controversial views. In The Donald's eyes Yassmin would fail on several counts. She is a woman, well not the type that stimulates The Donald, a Muslim, now that is a big no no, and she is intelligent to boot, another failing.

Anyway, there are bigger fish to fry. The Greens through the leader Richard Di Natale has called for the legalizing of cannabis use for Australians over the age of 18. Seen as a sensible move to take the drug out of the control of criminal dealers. I am sure even the forums hard right contributors will support this proposal. Prohibition has failed. the drug is in common everyday use by many Australians.

I'm not so sure, Paul. It would mean supporting law-abiding farmers over outlaw bikie gangs.... can you really our resident Tories getting behind our farmers like that?

Hi Paul,

That's an interesting argument, legalising marijuana even though it may - who knows for sure - cause psychosis and mental impairment later in life. . And surely it should apply to other offences too ? Domestic violence seems to be always with us, criminal punishment doesn't seem to work. So why not legalise it ? That would save a huge number of people from being punished for what is probably an unavoidable psychological condition anyway, the desire to dominate. Let's call for the legalisation of domestic violence ! When do we want it ? Now !

Thanks, Paul, your logic is impeccable. Who could possibly disagree ?

Cheers,

Joe

So, not like alcohol then. [sarcasm]

Toni, well at least we have tobacco as an alternative healthy legal drug. Joe will agree, no one was ever harmed by having a pack of fags a day. [sarcasm]
