Sorry, BottledBlondJeanie, but when someone writes a post expressing a wish to kill me, I see no reason to be polite or nice. He could have started a debate on the use of illicit drugs in GD or simply posted a rant against drug abuse, and I would probably remained silent or at least posted a semi-polite reply.  
However, when you threaten a coyote with death expect to show a display of fangs.

Sorry, that should be expect to see a display of fangs.

Christ, I’m even sober. I think I need to find my pusher or a bar.

**BBJ** , I’m new and didn’t post something incoherent yet.

Perhaps I should, so I can get “saved” by you.

Test the waters before you jump in.  
**Com2Kid** has no one to blame but himself.

**BBJ** , lighten up. The OP was poorly written, poorly coded, poorly spelled, rambled and was just plain whiny. People hijacked it a little to have some fun, but its hardly a pile on. Since when is it a pile on to comment on a post? (Not the poster, the post itself.)

(its like deja vu all over again)

Please for the Love Of Your Chosen Deity do not defend posts I make when I am 99.99% asleep.

Sheesh, I typed most of the thing with my eyes shut.(!!!)

Thank you for trying to help, but the most was indeed made in poor judgement, if I decide to one of these days I will take it and rewrite it to be something decent but until then. . . .

It is indeed a huge steaming pile of crap. 🙂

> Like [this one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=2079819#post2079819), in which he advocates shooting potheads who “disrupt his education”, and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=2072941#post2072941) where he darkly hints about what he’d like to do to end the drug war. In [this one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=2076307#post2076307), he fantasizes about hiring “death squads” to “assassinate companies who do shit I don’t like”, and various other nasty things. And let’s not forget [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=2124896#post2124896), the low point of a thread that was, admittedly, in rather poor taste anyway.

That last one was pretty darn Horrid. The point of the thread was to guess at the worst possible single action a human could do, and I think that I got pretty darn close.

As for the other links;

I do not like Large Corrupt Corporations, and I especially do not like Large Corrupt Corporations That Violate Other’s Civil Rights And Human Rights.

Poisoning local populaces to gain a few extra cents is not cool, killing people because the corporation does not wish to pay disposal fees for toxic wastes deserves not but the most stringent of punishments in return.

To one degree or another, yah;

as I said, I used to be one of the “leave them be” types of folks, but then they just got to be such a damn pain in the ass. Anybody who makes it so that there life style impinges on the quality of life of those around them, and then refuses to change or even acknowledge that they have a problem;

Well hell, what else do you suggest we do to them? They have made a conscious decision to lead the live style that they lead, their choice is there choice. Shove them in rehab? The success rate if horrid. Jail? Hah, not enough jail cells OR financial resources.

Continue to let them be? Why should any one person have the right to reduce the quality of life of multitudes of other people around them?

See above, something should be done (not has to be, nothing ever has to be done we could all sit on our asses all da. . . . oh _waaaait_ NM), and I proposed a solution.

Granted I used a bunch of run on sentences and very poor grammatical structure to do so but. . . .

It is in my opinion what would be the ONLY 100% effective solution, or at least the most efficient solution.

Yes, it completely disregards human life, but then again somebody who is popping pills or injecting \<chemical of your choice\> is already doing that.

As for causal drug users;

it is not that I have a problem with them per say, but rather I have a problem with the _attitudes_ that they create surrounding drugs. I mean if somebody just smoked a doobie now and then and that was the extent to which drugs where used in society, then hey, whatever. I may believe it is sinful and incorrect, but fuck it, your choice.

It is when some guy smokes a few joints, gets drunk, takes a few hits of acid, and then goes and beats the shit out of the first person he sees;

that I have a problem with.

If drug use was COMPLETELY forbidden socially then we would not have that problem.

But they are not, and we do.  
No, you didn’t call me any names, you just stood up for an asshole who wants to kill me because I used to smoke pot. And I thought I was being rather restrained in calling you a “sanctimonious twit.” That’s actually a lot nicer than some of the other things I thought of.  
But anyway, have fun on your vacation.🙂 \*\*

Ok, slightly more coherant…I think I liked it better the other way.  
You see Com2kid, I can sympathize with you…A little…A tiny bit…

I hate being around people who are drunk, stoned, tripping etc. I did try pot a few times, many years ago, and booze. I decided I was obnoxious enough on my own, without any help from chems or booze. I also Hate being around republicans some times too. BUT I dont go around advocating we do away with them. Not all people who use go around disturbing other people, in fact most people who use dont. Thing is, you only notice the ones who cant behave themselves.
