it's the edges vs nodes idea: taking down suppliers is much more efficient than taking down users. Just like the RIAA targets uploaders rather than downloaders.

Ok, here's the deal. You go snort a line of coke, and I'll drink a beer and smoke a cigarette. We'll keep going at that ratio until you overdose and die.

i think it was vietnam, and it may have been US soldiers executing a bound prisoner

Smart man...

yup, they definately should be killed

What? They just sold people something that they wanted to buy. Just like alcohol or cigarette manufacturers. Unfortunately some stupid people think that alcohol and tobacco are somehow "better' because they're legalQ]

Where do these dumbasses keep coming from? tobacco is on the same level as crack, cocaine and heroine?

Someone get this noob outta here before I lose control. :roll:

He does have a point. Why are some drugs considered "worse" than others? Alcohol and tobacco kill more people and have a more widespread use than the aforementioned yet are socially condoned.

If you actually bothered to address his entire post you'd notice that he doesn't imply that they are on the same level. But no, you choose to employ the strawman approach.

Oh, and he registered BEFORE you...so you're the noob.

pwned

How about I have a glass of water, and you have a glass of vodka. We'll keep going at that ratio until you overdose and die.

That's moronic. We're debating about hte legality of alcohol and drugs, not about water.

Think before you post. Of course alcohol is bad for you, but there are things that are worse.

Coke utterly destroys your life. It literally ceases your life to a grinding halt. It breaks families, marriage, friendship, career and obliterates every aspect of your precious life.

Coke and Tobacco on the same level? :roll: There's a legitimate reason why society accepts tobacco as legal while coke isn't. Your so-cool and deviant, alternative thinking is nothing but trash like any other idiots who think coke is on the same level as tobacco.

Sadder picture

Starving child crawling for food, vulture waiting for him to die, typical media person snapping pictures rather than helping the little fellow out.

Hope the Pulitzer is made of heat resistant metal or else it's not doing him any good now.

I find it funny how you say this after everyone has posted that fact. I'm willing to bet you wouldn't have said it earlier, at risk of looking like a moron. Hit the back button and get out of this thread.

you would be utterly shocked at how many ppl use coke casually and do not fit into this brainwashed propaganda you jsut shot out of your ass. I dont condone coke personally but it is like anything else not good for you in excess. People who are compulsive shouldnt do any drugs.

How, exactly, are/were they supposed to be executed? All those guys standing around with rubber gloves implies something... messy.

I believe China employs firing squad.

yeah, those are awesome.

meh. Guns and bullets are far too humane and expensive. Slow death by masturbation should be the norm.
