Sorry SIN

drugs usage escalaltes and leads to violence and harm to others. Alcohol and cig PRIMARILY hurt the user. drugs have a larger effect on others.

Wyoming Carla,
Very nice....concise and to the point... I also don't have a "dark past" or own a pair of coloured glasses....

Ever lived with an alcoholic? Ever burried a child killed by a drunk driver? Is alcohol a gateway drug. If not, is it part of the solution or part of the problem?

Make a rule, die by the rule. "No drugs" is a great stance and should include all chemical drugs including alcohol and nicotine and tobacco. But for the Gov't of the day to regulate how we kill ourselves or what poisons we consume is democracy? Protecting the user, those around him or the tobacco and liquor industries?

Splecs, no needs for apologies to just me, the remainder of the world should be apologized to as well.

I don't understand most of this. We're talking about people who went out secretly at night armed to the teeth, with the intention of shooting themselves out of trouble if they were apprehended (as indeed happened). Their objective was to make an indecent amount of money virtually directly ruining other peoples' lives. How can anyone have the remotest sympathy for them? Does it matter that there are other people doing other anti-social things? Perhaps we shouldn't punish men guilty of wife-battering because we should be grateful they didn't kill their wives?

Think they're pissed because it was such a lousy 401K plan.
