Occupy Wallstreet...again

no don't encourage him and also these protests haven't done anything at all at what point are you going to realize you can't change the government as sad as that is.
 
I've been a member of this website for over 9 years now, and that must be one of the stupidest things that I have ever read. At least top 5. Seriously?
 
i like how you simply asked a question and countless kids in this thread got very upset. the situations are obviously very different, but the principles behind them are identical. Does the law justify a person of authority's unjust actions or are they just as much at fault for enforcing something they know is wrong?
 
No the law does not justify unjust actions by authoritative figures. And the principles behind it are NO WHERE CLOSE to being identical. Don't forget, he is trying to compare smoking marijuana to the deaths of millions of people.

You both are under the HUGE assumption that everyone in the US believes marijuana poses no harm/threat and should be legal. Obviously, this isn't true, which is why it was made illegal in the first place. Chances are police officers believe that smoking pot is wrong. AND REGARDLESS: ITS AGAINST THE LAW!

Arresting someone for smoking pot is NOT unjust. It would be unjust if the cop saw you smoking pot, took you to a work camp, starved you to near death, then burned your body. Instead, they arrest, do the necessary procedures, hand you off to the court system where you can PLEAD YOUR CASE MIND YOU, and have a qualified judge decide whether what you have presented is right or wrong.

So don't fucking say the principles behind them are identical. Its fucking ignorant.

 
keep in mind this is Seattle and i doubt they are arresting people for weed.

As far as occupy wall street

some excepts from papers Ive written edited to correspond with the thread

“Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your

country.” (John Kennedy) We live in the greatest nation the world has

ever seen, we have the military might to conquer the known universe, we

have the economic might to crush the world economy. Sound familiar? We

are the successor to Rome which too rested on it laurels of past

triumphs. As history tells us Rome burned and sacked by its second-class

citizens, namely the Goths and Vandals. After Rome fell the dark ages began a time noted for disease death and the persecution of science. Essentially humanity digressed more than 1000 years.

Ar6 you bring up the holocaust. Do you know what empowered Hitler? A depression that would make 1930 in America look prosperous. He promised working people rights and better pay much like Obama and occupy wall street. Fundamentally Hitler ran on the same platform we see socailist today run on blaming a minority group, but instead of Jew its today its bankers and investors (basically Jews I guess).

Our own version of these

barbarians are knocking at our door; Occupy Wall Street. These same

people have already burned Athens, the birthplace of reason and

philosophy to the ground. They have burned and pillaged the western

gateway to our nation, Oakland. Get ready for the dark ages or another holocaust your choice

 
Maybe I hadn't read many of your previous comments, but now I have no respect for you. Please don't call anything they stand for, freedoms. Makes me sick. Freedom is the ability to do what you SHOULD, not the ability to do whatever you want with no repercussions.
 
Don't you even think about talking about Sean Connery that way. Sean Connery is more god than man.

As for the video, it really does not matter, I saw a video with one soapbox douche interviewing another soapbox douche, only difference was one gets paid for his soap box, and the other wants taxpayers to pay for his soapbox.

Meh.
