Supreme Court Ruling On D.C. Handgun Ban

I talked to your old lady, you won't be needing those nuts this weekend.

Story of my life. I'm always the last to know.

I wish I knew the correct response to the meth/heroine comment. I suppose that anything can be deemed "evil" if a human chooses to use it in a harmful manner. Fuck, this is requiring WAY too much thought for a Friday!

Meth is a little different than heroin. Heroin comes from opium right? That has been used as medication and whatnot for a long time now. So it's intent isn't really evil, mans intention with it can be, I guess.

Meth is another issue. Totally man made. So the ingredients might not be evil, they serve a purpose excluding the making of meth. But again, it comes down to mans intention. The intent is evil, to make the most horrible drug ever known to man.

So it really does come down to idiots fuckin' it up for the rest of us.

Meth and Heroin were first and foremost medicines developed by chemists for medical use.

Heroin is a pain killer that was developed in the 1800's and that is what it is used for. It comes under differnent names in todays medicine. Phentynal is much strong but Heroin is a "Tool"

Methaphetamine was developed as an asthma medication. It was found it can be used as a diet medication as well as treatment for ADHD. Drugs like Dexydrine and Rittilin have meth as an active ingredient.

There is your intent theory.

ETA I mispelled some of the drugs names I am sorry and too lazy to look it up.

Methylphenidate (Ritalin), Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) are not methamphetamines.

Desoxyn is the only methamphetamine that is prescribed and it is only prescribed when the drugs listed above are ineffective in treatment.

"Street Meth" is a bastardization of over the counter Ephedrine products and a wide assortment of household cleaning products including Acetone.

Yes I am aware of that. The idea is its classified as an amphetamine and the active ingredient is the same. You are not going to perscribe street meth as a doc but it was designed as a medication even though its street application is evil. It was not synthesized as a "tool of evil"

Don't feel bad, I been shooting blanks for 13 years now. More for show than go...

Meth = Evil you decide


From 1942, the Nazi leader Adolf Hitler received daily injections of methamphetamine from his personal physician, Dr Theodor Morell. The Führer was also familiar with cocaine. Hitler's ailments have been attributed to everything from tertiary syphilis to Parkinson's disease. But many of The Führer's clinical signs and symptoms may have been caused by his exotic drug regimen. In Hitler's Wehrmacht, methamphetamine tablets branded as Pervitin were liberally distributed to German fighting troops throughout the War. Amphetamines are "power drugs" that reduce fatigue, heighten aggression, and diminish human warmth and empathy.

I get piles and piles of Dexys every month, nearly free of charge, thanks to our wonderful National Health Service. God Save The Queen!



(On prescription, of course.)

Well, looks like WalMart got a new nickname today

[Jackson/Charvelfan]

Well "socalist" is a very, very broad term that means lots of things. It's thrown around more than "fascist" nodays to mean someone you disagree with. I think I get where you are coming from. I have a different opinion so I'm "socalist"? That's what I'm reading. I think it's more that than I prefer for the people to control wealth or property.

As for being left. No doubt about it. I'm much farther left than the Dems care to go nowdays. More Libertarian than anything I guess. Not really down with the current "parties" out there.

Bengal I respect your opinon and you have the right to one but have you really looked at the definition of a Libertarian? I have always been a Republican until recently but I have been moving more and more to the Libertarian party lines as they are more match with my values especially smaller Government and the Second Amendment. Here are some links for everyone. Just my 2 cents.

My thoughts on the Libertarian Party is they believe a person should be allowed to do what they want, right? That's what I've always thought.

Have I gone around the net and read what they are for? Nope. That's why I put the "I guess" behind that statement.

Are you asking because of my stance on guns? I think I've stated more times than I care to count that there is nothing you can do about guns in our society now. So I'm not really for rounding up all the guns and dumping them in the ocean. As nice as that sounds.

I'm for people being able to do what they want in their own home. Want to smoke pot or do herion? Sure, go for it. Want to gamble? Sure, go for it. That kind of thing. That is where I would allign myself with the Libertarian Party.

Not that I would, political parties are for pussies. HA! Joke there.

The Bible says in the 10 Commandments that "Thou Shall Not Kill". It doesn't say "Thou Shall Not Murder" or "Thou Shall Kill When Provoked Or In The Defense Of A Fellow Man" or anything like that. "Thou Shall Not Kill" is all it says.


+1

but it also does say this

The Holy Bible: King James Version. 2000.EcclesiastesOR, THE PREACHER3
A Time for Everything1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 a time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace

no time for rape? For kiddie fiddling? For torture? For tax fraud? For desecration of holy relics & burning of churches? For sodomising your neighbour's wife? For dishonouring your parents? For unnecessary cruelty to animals? For not doing unto others as you would have them do unto you? After all, there is a time for everything....

Isn't there always something in the bible that gives you a get out of jail free card when it comes to NOT following the ten commandments? You MUST following these ten commandments - unless you refer to this other section of the book....

The Hebrew translation of the commandment says Thou shall not murder...

[Bengal]

The Hebrew translation of the commandment says Thou shall not murder...

It's my understanding that the hebrew word can be translated as either kill or murder.

Depending on what you want to justify.
