PERSONAL FREEDOM

I am willing, but not anxious, to be tortured, imprisoned and/or die to defend my personal freedom and the personal freedom of others.

I choose my friends, my work and where I live. I obey the law because I helped to make the law by voting.

However, I deeply resent laws that stop me from doing things because the things might harm me.

NO ONE stops idiots, even crippled idiots, from climbing a mountain in a snow storm. Rescuing these numskulls can be REALLY expensive.

But use an herb that has NEVER proven to have killed a single person and you can be sent to prison. WORSE anyone who helps ill people be able to use an herb that makes them feel better can spend up to 20 years in prison.

ALL adults can chose whether or not to use alcohol, which kills thousands of people every year. NO adult can legally possess marijuana as it is STILL a federal schedule 1 drug.

I am not the only person who deeply resents the illogical control of my personal freedom.

Sending medical marijuana suppliers to prison for long terms is incredibility expensive. No wonder we can not afford good schools. The US has a higher percentage of people in prison than any other industrialized democratic nation.

And STILL illegal drugs are easily available to any person, no matter their age, who has the money to purchase the drug.
