That depends on what year you're thinking of. If you're life -and families life- is in danger from the government then escaping that country is the only sensible option. If you cannot escape then fighting for your life is obviously acceptable. Not really the same thing when all junkies are fighting for is to score legally.

Homosexuality isn't really a choice you have to make, and I agree that some laws are bad and worth fighting against. Comparing Nazi Germany, homosexuality and abortion with legal heroin use doesn't cut it.

Just because I used a poor analogy earlier, doesn't mean you have to start! !laugh!

Legalising alcohol didn't rid the world of alcoholics, but they don't go around mugging people like crackheads do.

So you'd support making alcohol illegal then?
