— Ace Well, I'm too engrossed in the comments today so I'm not really finding stuff on my own.
Chris Christie seems to have suggested he'll be attempting to decriminalize pot in New Jersey.
This is from his gubernatorial inaugural address. A cynic would imagine Christie would prefer a policy controversy to suck the oxygen away from the scandal controversy. (Even though many of the claims there seem to be total bullshit, with no evidence for them (except Mayor Zimmer's hand-scrawled notes, which could have been written at any time) and even thought Democrats are admitting their goal is to slime up Christie as they eventually did to Romney, to make him non-viable as a candidate.)
Even by the cynical interpretation, we're at the stage where a politician now proposes decriminalizing pot as a distraction from something politically damaging.)
Is Christie on the level here? I think probably yes, in the sense that this is his actual belief about the right policy.
“We will end the failed war on drugs that believes that incarceration is the cure of every ill caused by drug abuse. We will make drug treatment available to as many of our non-violent offenders as we can and we will partner with our citizens to create a society that understands this simple truth: every life has value and no life is disposable,” Christie said during his inaugural speech this morning.The governor expressed desire to help those struggling with drug addiction in a bipartisan manner. “And, while government has a role in ensuring the opportunity to accomplish these dreams, we have now learned that we have an even bigger role to play as individual citizens. We have to be willing to play outside the red and blue boxes the media and pundits put us in; we have to be willing to reach out to others who look or speak differently than us; we have to be willing to personally reach out a helping hand to a neighbor suffering from drug addiction, depression or the dignity stripping loss of a job,” said Christie.
Everything is changing so fast. The old rules aren't the new rules. We're in "interesting times," as the Chinese curse goes.
But, you know, the Chinese word for "crisis" is actually made up for the words for "danger" and "opportunity," as Al Gore and other people who wish to appear intelligent always say, erroneously and stupidly. (It's actually composed of the words for "danger" and "critical point." You know, critical, as in "crisis.")

maybe he'll also, you know, let people take advantage of that right the Supreme Court recently noticed in the Second Amendment.
Anyway, I don't know why the Dems are going after him know. They could just as well weight until fall 2016.

It might have something to do with his image as a back-stabbing RINO Opportunist.

You know where we won the war on drugs or better said, won the battle since the war will be ongoing forever, is in Miami / Florida and Columbia.
The contrast between those places in the 80's and now is unbelievable. Of course nothing is ever going to be unicorns and skittles but It is my opinion that we sign our death warrant legalizing drugs.

Ace,
Your comment "we're in interesting times" is interesting in and of itself. From a technological standpoint, we are in very very interesting times.
The rest of it, not so much. The turn away from religion is very distressing.
But pot being legal is like going back to 1900. Are we advancing, regressing, or returning?

We're going to let people smoke cigarettes and drink liquor that will obviously will kill you, but not marijuana? Why? because liberal hippies did it in the 60's?
Even people who don't smoke pot are going to not going to like the idea of a political party being moral police.
I would argue that's the single biggest problem with the GOP right now, secular people view it as the Church Lady Party. I could see the brand improving with a pro-legalization platform.

That might be a hard sell, because there are factions of the left (I'm talking mostly liberals, not the so-called progressives) who have renamed prostitution. It's now called human trafficking, which sorta puts a much more negative spin on it.
I'm not saying the case is made one way or another by the name change, but since lefties tend to operate in the emotional realm, rather than the rational, there would be a very strong negative reaction to anyone suggesting it should now be legal.

And I knew then that I was going to have to work my way up and out of that life if I was going to give my daughter a better life and a better future and that’s what I’ve done. I am proud of where I came from and I am proud of what I’ve been able to achieve through hard work and perseverance.

"A previous version of this post said the 85 richest people owned nearly half of global wealth and the same amount as the bottom half of the population. The 85 richest people are a small part of the wealthiest 1%, which owns 46% of the world's wealth. The 85 richest people own about 0.7% of the world's wealth, which is the same as the bottom half of the population."--Los Angeles Times website, Jan. 20

I suspect that the official government crime figures are coming to be as systematically gamed as are the official government economic figures.
Certainly here in San Francisco for the longest time, the basic policy at SFPD has been to do anything they possibly can to avoid taking a report. Tourist town, don't you know. Bad for business.
And possible murders that could be construed as suicides are automatically considered suicides, because SFPD really don't want to call more attention to the fact that if you're murdered in San Francisco, the odds that your killer will ever be caught and convicted are really only about 50%. One of the worst homicide clearance rates in the country.
Hence a preference for "suicides" by SF police officialdom, as they don't further tilt that already crummy figure.

Locked up for possession?
I don't know how it works where you are, but here in Commiefornia, there is a huge fuss every year at budget time about the cost of state prison.
And every year, without fail, the stoner brigade are claiming that the prisons are chock full of "nonviolent marijuana offenders" locked up for nothing more than being caught with a sandwich bag of reefer. They assert that huge budget savings will come about from outright legalization of weed.
Well, the state publishes a detailed prison census, which shows who is in stir here and for what offenses, and so I looked that up. This claim of the prisons being full of nonviolent potheads? A complete sack of bullshit from start to finish.
What people ARE in for is: Rape. Murder. Burglary. Assault. Grand theft. And, drug dealing, but the absolutely overwhelming percentage of those are non-cannabis convictions.

Old-time luminary of the Gimmedatic Party, Sen. George Mitchell of Maine (predecessor of Olympia Snowe-job) fought for years to get a federal luxury tax placed on yachts. To fund "important social services" and such things.
Finally he got his way.
Yacht sales fell through the floor.
And within months, Mitchell was totally panicked and trying desperately to get the tax rescinded. Because it turned out that Maine, as a coastal state, had a metric fuckton of ordinary working-class citizens who had actually been making a good living out of building and maintaining and crewing yachts. And Mitchell had boneheadedly ruined all of their livelihoods, and they were pissed. This is a big part of why a (notional) Republican later had his Senate seat.
As I keep saying: GIVE LIBERALS A BIG CHUNK OF WHAT THEY CLAIM TO WANT. Just with time limits to keep the damage under control.
Example: Obama claims to want a $15 minimum wage. Sure. Pass that fucker right now. Hey, make it $20. But keyed to sunset as Obama leaves office. Let the Choom Clown shoulder the responsibility as millions of more jobs evaporate on his watch.

A report from Snowmageddon. About a foot of global warming so far and it is coming down harder than it has all day. The wind has kicked up and now the temps are falling. Blowing snow is making roads all but impassable. I went out driving anyway. The weathermen underestimated this one IMHO. Central MD is getting whacked.

Barky lied about his background and even had his records 'sealed'...and got away with it.
I guess Wendy Davis figured she could get away with it too.

It's been snowing steady here in the Boston area for the last 2.5 hours.
The roads are slippery, which is why I tipped the chinese food deliverer $8.52.

The more Wendy Davis or obama or Eliz Warren lies, the louder You scream.
The louder you scream, the easier it is to portray you as a cranky crackpot.

Hannity sounds like he's backtracking on moving out of NY now.

...and all the while the state will take more and more power and take away freedoms of speech and religion and guns and property and 4th amendment rights.
They'll give you freedoms that indulge your vices and lower standards while the real goal is to begin to empower the state while the people dumb themselves down.

Jeezooey, I'm getting all depressed up in here. There sure seems to be a hard, ugly, inescapable truth hanging in the air like stale b.o.
And to top it off, I slaved away making homemade yeast biscuits tonight, dough stuck to my clothes, the sink, countertop, everywhere. Made an absolute mess. Cut those suckers out, put them on the tray to rise...beauty ensued. Until I realized I completely forgot the sugar and salt. They weren't even edible and I got a sad.

Doesn't matter. We do the same to there screamers. Difference is we don't have a news, comedy series, and awards media platform to skewer them with. And there final act always ends with a tear. For them, of course.

Speaking of Pirates...
That's the first thought I had, reading of Sven's plan to live on his commuter-boat for long periods of time.
What about Pirates?
Piracy is already a growing problem on the high seas.
If everything breaks down...Piracy will probably flourish like we've never seen before.

I heard him talking to Governor Perry on my drive home today and that's pretty much what he was saying then. That its not going to immediate and it might take some time but he will once all their ducks are in a row.
Its just so shocking that a parent might be willing to put their kids ahead of their own desires isn't it?

I don't know why you all think you have to go to Canada for those. I'm in Southwest Ohio and there's a Tim Horton's 5 minutes from me.

I live in New York.
Be fucked if I'm going anywhere. We can manage just fine, thank you--our lives are structured so as to need only the barest minimum of outside contact.
Of course, if the situation arises, we can easily return to full contact with society.

I don't like the term "pirate" I prefer "freelance customs broker" or "Salvage initiator and expediter"

This particular *cough* expansion of enlightenment while roaming the seas of Gaia is on my retirement list.

Obama now thinks he's a medical expert on marijuana. Oh well, I guess it's a step down from God. The marijuana of today is not the marijuana of his college days. Better to let people think you are a fool than to open your month and remove all doubt.
