Broken the law already, and I'm not talking internet laws here, but that's only because this country has a bloody stupid set of laws. I am by no means criminal, but if you look at stupid laws passed here, you might find what I mean. Our politicians these days...

What are some laws that you personally disagree with. I personally don't get lawsuits. I believe that if you've really done something wrong, then you should be brought upon criminal charges. I also think pot should be legal; not because I smoke it, but because there are other worse drugs and drug dealers that we should focus our attention on thwarting.

I AM THIRTY YEARS OLD, SOMEWHAT EDUCATED AND LIVE A CLEAN LIFE. NOW I NEED TO ADMIT SOMETHING, I AM GOING THROUGH COLLEGE NOW AFTER THE JOBS PRETTY MUCH ENDED AND BACK THEN BEFORE I STARTED WORKING IN A FACTORY. I HAVE LIVED LIFE PRETTY WELL LIKE FLYING TO VIETNAM AND I NOW AM HAVING A BABY.

SOOO... LETS BE PERFECTLY BLUNT HERE...I HAVE NEVER BEEN DRUNK, SMOKED POT OR ANYTHING ELSE AND I NEVER SHOT UP HEROIN.

I needed to write that in all caps just for emphasis. Here I go again.
I TRULY BELIEVE THAT IF YOU NEED DRUGS TO HELP WITH YOUR PROBLEMS IN REAL LIFE, THEN YOU ARE A SCARED LITTLE COWARD. WORK ON YOUR LIFE THE HARD WAY AND IT TRULY WILL BE BETTER. PISS YOUR LIFE AWAY WITH DRUGS AND WASTE WHAT POTENTIAL YOU HAVE.
The ALL-CAPS totally makes your point better. I notice you don't say you don't smoke in your little 'about me' segment, intentional? (nice way to link heroin to pot and booze though, smooth) Linking things you haven't done to your own success is fairly dubious logically. I'm a success and I've never eaten penguin! Therefore eating penguins is bad! LOGIC!
Anyway in response.

Marijuana, prostitution, certain instances of underage drinking, pumping your own gas.
those things, except where im from prostitution is legal and cops wont do anything if youre smoking marijuana
where I'm from the cops will join you...

OT: yeah probably prostitution... just business...
Would probably also help to reduce pimping and abuse of hookers as well.
yeah they can start a workers union and ask for better pay too...

Raw Milk.
i can get that stuff here! and boy is it delicious.
The laws vary, but in some US states, the sale of unpasteurized milk has led the ATFE to raid farms and sieze milk at gunpoint.
E-coli is bad shit. Raw Milk is some of the best stuff you can get short of auger if you wanted to grow a culture of bacteria.

I live in the farm belt of the USA; including dairy and livestock.
Trust me, I'd only drink raw milk if I owned the cow, because some of these places aren't exactly kept in the tidiest of conditions. Mainly, you really don't want to know what that cow sleeps on (the udders for that matter) the night before she gets milked.

Sex in any other position besides the missionary.... seriously.

Pot, but regulate and tax it.

Prostitution, also regulated with health checks. I can't believe Porn is legal but prostitution isn't. Inherently isn't that the same thing? Being paid to have sex?

Now, on the topic of things that aren't necessarily illegal but stupid regulations...

Passing on debt to children when you die. Sorry, thats pretty fucked up. Yes bills need to be paid but its screwed up that if an irresponsible parent racks up a high credit card bill and dies that the kid is culpable for it.

Death tax. Sorry, I don't think its Constitutional to tax a dead person's assets AND the whoever inherits their assets. Pick one you greedy fucks.

just to name a few...

Pumping your own gas is illegal? There's self serve up here. ._.
But, yeah. Prostitution and Marijuana.

That's really all I can think of.
Oregon won't let you pump your own gas.

OT: Pot, drinking at 18 and higher, having sex with a virgin in Washington state (I wish I was kidding)...

Here is a last of actual laws from my state (Washington)
"No walking in public if you have the common cold"
"Lollipops are illegal"
"X-Rays may not be used to fit shoes" (WTF)
"?It is mandatory for a motorist with criminal intentions to stop at the city limits and telephone the chief of police as he is entering the town." (WHAT... THE... HELL...)
"No buying mattresses on Sunday's" (HUH?)
"No pretending your parents are rich" (NO FUCKING WAY)
"When two trains come to a crossing, neither shall go until the other has passed." (FIGURE THIS ONE OUT, I DARE YOU)
"You may not carry a concealed weapon over six feet in length"
So smaller concealed weapons are fine, then?
How the fuck would they enforce the lollipops thing?
Why the hell would anyone use an x-ray to find shoe size?
Oh yeah, this is a realistic situation "Hello, police chief? Yeah, I intend to street race the hell out of this place and also do drug running and maybe five or six drive by shootings. Just thought I should warn you, bye!"
I guess mattresses promote sin or something? Are they satanic mattresses? Either way, that's bullshit.
I know people don't want to get the sniffles but honestly the common cold isn't that harmful.
The train thing actually makes sense. I don't think anyone would want trains hitting each other where the tracks intersect. Though it sounds comically like a riddle.

As for things i'm ok with. Prostitution. Not only are prostitutes arrested on site, but the police actually select on of the nicer looking female officers to entice a male into making an offer, and then they arrest him. That's entrapment, and entrapment is wrong. As for marijuana, it isn't half as bad as some psychoactive drugs i've heard about that therapists actually recommend. Plus it helps cancer patients and is probably a good antidepressant. So yeah, legalize it already.

This. You can own the TV, as long as you don't watch live TV with it, despite the TV Licensing authority trying to use vague language and threats to make people believe otherwise.

People in places where you can't pump your own gas might get a bit of a culture shock in the UK where you have to pump your own... Though I'm glad people believe in the fallacy that mobile phones can blow up petrol stations, as it does mean that people actually concentrate on the filling and not trying to fuel their trousers :p.

Though I do wish speeding was policed less in the UK, but stupid driving policed more. It's not the people dashing down the outer lane that is going to get you - it's the nutters who merge when not looking. Forward planning people - if you see a lorry in front of you, then is the time to start checking the middle lane if you want to overtake it, not just trying to force your way into it just after getting close to it ><. Also, if you're not overtaking, move left :/. [UK rules]

Ended up undertaking too many cars today thanks to the slow plonkers in the outer lane :/ (and I only undertake if they're being idiots).

For stores to sell beer after 20:00 monday to friday, 18:00 saturday....
This one. It's like to different realities when on vacation home in Norway (Stores stop selling alchohol at 20:00. 18:00 on Saturdays and NO beersale on Sundays) and when studying in Denmark (You can get any legal alchohol 24/7)

Well, I don't like the fact the Queen won't let me take bits of dead whales until she's had her turn (A legal relic from the age when the Royals used whalebones for corsets)
And I want to kill swans. Nasty buggers. But they're the property of the Queen too, apparently.
Drugs, fine, sx fine, breaking the speed limit, whatever.

First of all thank for being a defender for this behavior, at least you are being honest.

Second, I had to put everything in all capital letters as it is truly the only way certain idiots will pay attention to it. As I wrote quite a bit, often a simple minded person will just skip the whole article and I did it this way as I figured they would be pointed out by that part instead of just skipping the whole argument.

Third, like you are any better. I have a difference of opinion and you jump right on my ass. Perhaps doing the very same thing you are complaining about that I did and that is pointing out things that you don't agree with and then ***** about it like you far superior over others.

Four, now that I think about it, you are a little worst about this crap than I am. At least I was trying to point out a few facts and try to state that you CAN live life without them and that you DON'T HAVE to use them. I wasn't saying, and I heard Bill Hick's whole cd before, that the drug trade didnt' do anything positive, I was just mostly stating the other side of this issue that nobody is tending to give "two shits" about.

Just because something is fun does not mean you should do it. If an activity takes time away from the stuff you should be doing, it shouldn't matter if it was fun to do or not. By smoking pot and doing all sorts of other drugs, you are creating a habit that vastly takes away from other stuff like your studying, working, and even POSITIVE social habits. If nothing else, please learn to sacrifice today for a better tomorrow. Make tomorrow a better day by working hard and not posting crap like this bullshit debate or waste time doing shit that probably is illegal for a reason.

Lastly though, if pot turned legal and even I can see that there are some positive usages for it, then what? Meth and Acid perhaps, where does this line end?

----------------------------
Yes, I think pot should be legalized, sold in a government store like the Oregon liquor stores and taxed heavily. I think the morons who were put in jail for doing the very crap that most of those in this argument may face should be released as a pot head on the couch cost far less than a pot head in prison. I also believe that if you sale pot after the legalization illegally, extreme harsh penalties would incure.

However my point is how stupid it is to use and piss away what little time you all have while being young. I also understand that the vast majority of people who do read this who are actually pot smokers are rather selfish even toward themselves and won't give a shit. So we should legalize it and start fixing our national deficit with the proceeds instead of sending them to jail and spending even more money on them.
I jump on your ass not because of a difference in opinion but because you're using a lifestyle choice, your lifestyle choice, as a justification for looking down on people. You offer no evidence beyond the anecdotal that your success in life has anything to do with how you use your recreational time.
Since you've never drank/taken drugs etc your opinions on the merits of a life with substance abuse are fairly moot. You're arguing as if it's impossible to drink/use a substance and lead a productive, happy life at the same time. You're confusing casual use with crippling addiction.
For instance, the vast majority of male graduated med students (around 70%) admit to taking recreational drugs at med school, yet they are still successfull individuals who probably contribute more to society than you or I.

I'm not pro-drug (though I am pro legalisation of everything short of crack/heroin) I'm simply pointing out that the stereotype of recreational drug users as useless, shiftless hippies is outdated and outright wrong.
