Spoken like an easily-led know nothing. And insensitively to boot. Congratulations.

The current President of the United States of America, along with his immediate predecessor (and probably more than just a couple/few previous presidents and VPs) used cocaine. Actually, quite a lot of people have used cocaine without anything bad happening at all. Cocaine is still used legally in some medical procedures in this country.

And I guess the more obvious point... why no mention of the alcohol, sir? Not alone, or even as part of the mix? Aren't you aware of how frequently alcohol is involved in wholly negative and tragic events?

Comparing it to serving out precise 1.5oz shots of vodka is a dumb joke. Compare it with "drinks on me", and you have something different altogether.

The argument about HIV transmission is such complete absurdity.

Yeah, start telling guys that being circumcised counts as protection against HIV. You have now officially guaranteed steady or increased HIV rates are the only possible outcomes, along with virtually guaranteed higher rates of other STDs, and higher rates of unplanned/unwanted pregnancies and such.

But pretty much all of the people that are going to be putting forth this argument don't really care anyway. Because they'll actually only be putting it forth as evidence that their religious practices are a good thing, and that not practicing these things is a bad thing.

Now everyone just needs to picture all of the other dealers in the area, with all of their meth and weapons out on their tables just like the police, celebrating right along with them. Because they'll gain a great deal from this. And more importantly, that's really the only real effect this will have as far as this drug goes in relation to this area. Period. The lure of increased profits will serve to quickly lure more people into the trade to fill any temporary gaps and ultimately expand it.

Meanwhile, all of the folks involved in the private prison industry will also make money. I guess the police will benefit as well, in that their going after all of this low-hanging fruit very effectively detracts attention from the unsolved burglaries and robberies and rapes and murders in the area.

You've been conditioned to see any reaction to a senseless injury/death involving a firearm that mentions the firearm, or firearms in any more general sense, as being an anti-gun statement from an anti-gun person.

Do you know what a spring gun is? Do you know what a mantrap is? If so (or if you bother to figure it out), you should also note that you're no longer allowed to use those to "defend yourself (or your property)", and the reasons that this is so.

And if she had paid attention, or maybe actually at least watched the videos she found, she would have found that it's prohibitively expensive in time/money to make it in small quantities. So what she's saying and how she's saying it is downright misleading.
