Cage fighting for under 8s got me 😂

blahsay,

It can be learned but it’s hard.

Basically if you suffer through an event it gives you the ability to empathize with similar people.

blahsay,

Such smart farming! I’m surprised they make the canals so deep they need boats to get around though.

blahsay,

2/5 isn’t great. Also why would anyone have to watch out for lizards? I’m doubtful Godzilla is just over the hill

blahsay,

Hah no, we don’t have scorpions oddly enough. Probably killed off for not being deadly enough.

blahsay,

Lol nobody appreciates a good coup these days. Ungrateful Iranians, Guatemalans…etc etc etc!

blahsay,

Too soon!

John Davis is the secretary of the flat earth society*

What can the US do to help Mexico finally stop the cartels?

Politicians constantly talk about stopping the illegal immigrants that are coming from Mexico, but putting a wall has never and will never be a solution since the reason why so many displaced keep coming across the border is mostly to escape the crime, corruption, inequality, and violence of they have to live in their home...

Prohibition doesn’t give society tools, it removes them.

Take prostitution. Legalisation immediately leads to registration of hookers (blocking most human trafficking), gives oversight to inspectors, forces safety standards, allows for checks on welfare etc… It also removes criminals from the chain, pimps, violence, drugs etc… If you do a little research on this you’ll see it’s the better option. If you are a moral person your imperative should be on keeping all parties safe. And you have to realise prohibition never stops it.

blahsay,

Who cares man? Gambling, prostitution, cheese, trash? Those are legit businesses.

As long they’re out of the murder and dismemberment game that’s the win right?

blahsay,

Dude it’s 90% of their income - of course it will hit them. They won’t disappear but believe me legalisation is the biggest thing they fear.

Cartels gone overnight. Handle addiction as a medical problem. With legal MDMA, mushrooms, weed and acid, the hard stuff isn’t going to be anywhere near as big an issue as it is currently.

“Prohibition…goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man’s appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes.” - Abraham Lincoln

I get that you personally might have moral issues with gambling etc. but making something illegal doesn’t stop it, it just pushes control into the hands of criminals. Want to give me a single instance where prohibition has ever worked?

If you want to stop cartels legalisation is literally the only path.

blahsay,

Lana is that you?

blahsay,

You can. This is not one of them

blahsay,

It’s a fair analogy to obscure some complexity.

Got a better one?

blahsay,

The people struggling with this are the same ones that think a ton of lead is heavier than a ton of feathers

blahsay,

Barbarians had big schlongs notoriously and you don’t want to be that!

blahsay,

They also tried to straight up genocide Israel two more times afterwards too.

blahsay,

😂
