  1. It must. I see it getting up and going down every day almost, at least when the weather is clear.
  2. That would probably be a better idea than going into a non war zone, stirring the pot until everyone is fighting, then completely misreading the politics, and then running away leaving millions of dollars of military equipment behind, and creating an outfit like, oh , say, ISIS.
  3. Then like I say, lets hope he has learned something from previous gross errors.
  4. The troops in Iraq were at their highest during the last year of Bush. Luckily Patreaeus convinced Bush they should get the hell out of there so he sent some home but then a bunch to another waste of time war in Afghanistan, and look at the mess that left. Lets hope your Trump reads a bit about history from time to time and takes a lesson from it.
  5. I'd like to see where you got the idea Bush was getting US troops OUT of Iraq.
  6. Perhaps you have no idea how much wars cost and how beneficial to a countrys economy winding uo two fo them can be. I wonder if Trump will reverse all of those gains..
  7. Merry Xmas. Now go kill a tree.
  8. Sounding like an early smoker.
  9. Apparently recognizing sarcasm isn't one of yours. See what that early smoking does!
  10. Limiting yourself to a cloistered world is what makes people boring.
  11. We have had Catholic schools for ages, and parades that suggest Santa was a white guy, and those restaurants you support are businesses no? If we force people to assimilate we become racist and boring. Doesn't work for me.
  12. If you are you are damn lucky and we shouldn't ignore the proceeds of medical research. Smoking dope at 12 is dangerous, especially with the high THC and low CBD levels we see today.
  13. I don't see them as vindictive bastards, but more to the point, why wouldn't they allow for home grown for personal use. Can you imagine a bigger waste of police resources than having them snooping around to try to find a half dozen plants in someones basement?
  14. Legalize it, tax it, keep kids out of jail, carry on. Easy.
  15. As I've already opined, I suspect that the new legislation will allow you to grow your own weed similarly to how you can produce your own wine/beer for example. If I wish to go buy it, I would prefer a regulated Big Pot Corp. than a street vendor.
  16. Yes he probably should have done that, and then followed up with the legalization he now proposes. It would have left a more level playing field instead of the current situation where if you are in caught in Kelowna your chances of getting charged are hugely higher than if you are caught in St. John's.
  17. You throw the people in jail who are illegally marketing the product, not the people who simply have a couple of joints on their person as they can, and do now. It may take some time, but I suspect the black market for pot would dry up just as it did for booze.
  18. Well again, my main reason for supporting legal pot is because I don't want a lot of people, many of them young sitting in jail. And I think for instance if you sell it through a liquor store you hopefully can reduce the amount getting consumed by under aged people. If that costs the consumer more and at the same time provides a more predictable product I say well worth it.
  19. No, they did listen to the likes of Megyn Kelly and that helped Trump get to where he is. I didn't go to other countries to change things either, but I wasn't going there to live either. And people who come here must abide by our laws or suffer the consequences. Aside from that, I am happy that they start restaurants etc. so I can enjoy some of that distant culture without getting on another plane.
  20. Again, I'm sure a bootlegger could sell you bath tub gin a lot cheaper than you can buy it in the government approved outlet, but how many people do that any more. Where I live most of the non government stores are more expensive than the government ones.
  21. What's so different? You sell a product and collect tax from the sale. And very likely if it comes through a gov. store you know what you're getting. I think Ontario for instance has a population about 3 x that of Wa., state and a billion here or there could help offsetting their electricity costs.
  22. If the lefties stopped listening for fake news, the righties would get away with generating it. Megyn Kelly of Fox is a recent example. I'm lucky enough to have travelled quite a lot in the far corners of this globe and I quite like multi cultures. Become aware of other people who share the world is the farthest thing from any type of suicide I can think of. You should try it some time. (travelling not suicide)
  23. I'm white and quite awake and I'm happy to share the Santa myth with whatever culture/color wants to join the party, at the mall, the parade, wherever. Maybe narrow minded righties should wake up and learn that Santa wasn't born in a US or Canadian mall, that Jesus didn't speak English, and perhaps you should look up the word genocide.
  24. Washington State seems happy with their cash cow. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-10-23/washington-expects-pot-sales-tax-revenue-surge-to-1-billion
  25. I wouldn't be surprised if they are. Medical pot can already be grown at home.
