You're an idiot. Maybe not, but you sure sound like one.
Again, NO ONE SAID TO TAKE PILLS OR SMOKE WEED FOR EVERY LITTLE PROBLEM. Why is that so insanely difficult for you to comprehend?
Most diet pills have proven to be very bad for you and don't work. I don't take anything for any problems I have.
You can't say my sleeping problem isn't a "real" issue. These are the types of things that make you sound very ignorant. There were nights in high school I would get 3 hours of sleep if I were lucky. Is that not a problem? It had me falling asleep in class.
Again, why not just solve this problem by smoking a little weed? Can you answer that? I tried for years to be able to sleep peacefully every night. I can on most nights, but if I slept a little late or didn't exercise much, and I have to fall asleep early and wake up early, the easiest way to accomplish that is simply to smoke a little bit. Explain to me how that's harmful or stupid.
I congratulate you on being able to sleep easy. My gf is the same way, she'll put her head down and be out in 5 minutes. I'm not. I usually lie awake for an hour or so, and often times will wake up again after falling asleep. When I smoke? I sleep. Quickly, and all night.
You keep saying things like I "take drugs for every little problem," or I "can't sleep every once in a while." You don't know what you're talking about. If weed makes me sleep much better, why wouldn't I do it? Whether or not YOU think I need medication or not does not matter one bit. It benefits me to smoke a little bit to fall asleep and stay asleep. You cannot debate that.

I won't deny I like to smoke. But, I don't do it every day or when I have important things to do. And yes, when I need to, I absolutely take it to fall asleep, because it is super effective for me.
No that actually is not what you asked. You might want to reread what you actually wrote. You may meant it that way, but that is not what you said in your post.

That is precisely what I said. I said, in the above quote (I guess I'll paraphrase because it's the same exact thing), "When was writing to a politician more effective in changing their minds and laws than blatantly breaking the law."
When was "writing and calling local politicians" more effective than just breaking the law? That's what I said. I never, ever said "no movements have ever been or will ever be successful." What on earth are you talking about. I know you can't answer that question, which is why you're changing the argument (shocking).

But on Monday night, Hill’s daughter Alexandria, or Alex as they liked to call her, was rushed to a Rockdale hospital with severe head injuries, then flown to Scott and White Children’s Emergency Hospital in Temple and immediately placed on life support.
Alex was living with foster parents after DFPS removed her from her parent's home last November for "neglectful supervision."
Hill admits they were smoking pot when their daughter was asleep.
“We never hurt our daughter. She was never sick, she was never in the hospital, and she never had any issues until she went into state care.”
For two months, Alex was placed in a home that Hill says was dangerous.
“She would come to visitation with bruises on her, and mold and mildew in her bag. It got to a point where I actually told CPS that they would have to have me arrested because I wouldn't let her go back."
In January, CPS placed her with Sherill Small in Rockdale, and Hill says things seemed safe there.
“They listened, they paid attention when we had concerns, they tried to keep us in the loop, but in the end, it wasn't enough."
Hill got the call Monday night that his daughter was in a Temple hospital.
“They wouldn't tell me what condition she was in or what was wrong or what had happened. The only thing they would tell me is I needed to be there. When I got there, I found out that Alex was in a coma."
For two days, they held out hope she would regain consciousness but on Wednesday night Alex was taken off life support.
Rockdale detectives say Small's explanation didn't match Alex’s injuries, so Thursday they arrested the foster mother on murder charges.
Hill says he was less than four months away from getting Alex back and now he'll never get the chance.
CPS removed another child from the foster home on Monday after Alex was rushed to the hospital.
Small’s bond is set at $100,000.
Officials with the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services tell KVUE they rely on private child placing agencies to perform background checks on all foster homes.
The agency in this case is called Texas Mentor and state records show 15 total deficiencies for the Austin branch of that agency over the past two years.
Four of those deficiencies were for failing to perform proper background checks on people who live in foster homes.
The state does not specify which homes were involved in those cases.

That's carpe for you. Not much logic.
No, it was not the exact same thing. You replied to my entire quote and said (no paraphrasing, exact quote)
"Id like to know when this was effective in changing a politician's mind and changing laws more so than a lot of people just breaking the law."
yeah considering I never even remotely even said that....
I said it was your own fault if you caught when you knew the law, regardless if you agree with the law or not. Again, you're reading comprehension is terrible. I've pointed out at least 4 times in this thread that I understood your point, and hell I even agreed that it should be legal.
Your "very obvious quote" was actually very opaque, considering you were responding to three separate scenarios and did not specify in any way which one I was referring to. Would seem pretty obvious to the untrained eye you were replying to the whole quote and not simply one portion of it.

Wouldn't a bunch of people breaking the law on purpose be considered a movement? So when I referenced politicians in response to your reference to politicians, you didn't understand what I was talking about?
yeezus

No, that is what you said. You said we should obey the law even though it's stupid, and that if we break it, we're the problem..not the law you find stupid.
plz show me where I said that
I don't know. Would you consider thieves part of a movement since more people commit theft than any other crime?
And considering that politicians are the ones that can change laws (what my quote was referencing) , then no
