Finally watched the entire clip. lmfao these people. Ron Paul didnt have a chance convincing those brain dead morons of anything.

He doesn't have a chance of getting all drugs legalized now either. Sure Pot may be legalized in most states at some point but there's no political move to legalize cocaine, heroin and meth. That ain't happenin' and for good reason. We don't need more stoned people

any links?

would like to read

start with this.

Seven Democratic lawmakers are pushing to ban the use of electronic cigarettes on the grounds of the Capitol complex as part of a wider campaign against them.

critics argue that the battery-powered devices deliver a more powerful dose of nicotine per puff, posing a serious health risk.

Tuesday's letter was signed by Sens. Durbin, Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), Edward Markey (D-Mass.), Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) and Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.).

I've been told by people who use the things every day that they may or may not have nicotine, but the important thing is they have little or no tar.

It's looking to me like the vapor cigs are the best thing to ever happen to people who want to quit smoking.

yeah, it's just an outright lie. the truth is, they can have as much, or as little nicotine as you want. But that doesn't even matter, as the nicotine would have the same effect on anyone other than the smoker as would second-hand smoke from a cigarette (....which is no effect, by the way)

when smoke fulls a room after hundreds of people smoking throughout the day then it does have an effect

outside the air blows everything away

the question is does the government and prohibitionists have the right to ban smoking in a private establishment like they already do

It will happen. Cocaine, Heroine ect are no different than MJ and Alcohol when it comes to prohibition and the results.

It may take another 30 years. But people will come around.

Are all drugs legal in any civilized country now?
