I COMPLETELY AGREE that human trafficking and child prostitution should be punishable by a minimum of life in prison with no chance of parole. Cracking down on child abductors and the johns that have sex with children is the first step to regulating and controlling prostitution, which is LOOONG overdue ! Volunatary prostitution by a legal consenting adult should be made legal and also regulated. Sex workers should be considered part of the work force like anyone else and have the same rights as everyone else. Eliminate human trafficking and child prostitution and maybe voluntary prostitution can be made legal.
Joey Carmichal, I couldn't agree with you more. I also read your other post about some uses for Marijuana that I did not know about, like using it as a fossil fuel. How can this be done in a cost effective way ? The impact that would have would be HUGE ! But of course the big oil companies wouldn't want this to happen. We couldn't let the farmers make money on Exxon or BP's turf ! Just like Pfizer would never want MJ to be legal for its medical benefits. You are so right Joey, but how do we beat corporate America ?
I am totally for the legalization of Marijuana and am a member of NORML. In addition to the laundry list of benefits legalization would have,eliminating an excuse for racial profiling by racist police is another. Racism is personal and individual.If a police officer sees a person of color and is racist, he/she is going to look for a reason to arrest that individual. Legalization of Marijuana would take away that excuse but would not end racism. Racism is a seperate and much larger issue and equally important.
