    Should marijuana be legal in the US?

    <b>A hundred years ago, it was all legal. Question: Were society's drug-related problems worse back then, or are they worse now?</b> In Amsterdam, marijuana is easily purchased in the Red Light District's coffee shops, while a complete selection of hard drugs is easily purchased from the...

    Why would a prop firm steal your deposit?

    Actually, I've been repeatedly stunned by the incredible effectiveness of this simple little profiling trick. Time and time again, I've been seriously amazed at how seemingly decent guys who <i>just happen</i> to address others as 'buddy' or 'friend', always turn out to be lying sleazebags...

    Do Democrats Want to be led by a Woman?

    The first ten times I made that admission didn't suffice? I see you already have plenty of guys here who are willing to fight with you. Your plate is already full enough as it is. What's the point of provoking me as well? Can you even honestly say that you dislike me?

    Do Democrats Want to be led by a Woman?

    I bet you wouldn't mind seeing 'President Condi Rice' or 'President Ann Coulter', right?

    Saddam is dead, are we safer now?

    Were the shoe on the other foot, you'd evade these questions all day long... But I'll just flat out admit it: Your points above are correct.

    Saddam is dead, are we safer now?

    <i>"Sunni's like wael will tell you that the Shia' are more "civilized" (kneejerk judgmental lapse on my part) than the Sunni's."</i> Just FYI, Pabst: It's the other way around. Sunnis commonly look down on the Shia as the more barbaric and primitive of the two sects. The Shia holiday of...

    Moscow?

    Thanx for the helpful replies! I'll keep that in mind.

    Why does Elitetrader allow anti-semitic posts?

    It's a complicated issue... I'm of Jewish ethnicity, but I don't see the non-erasure of anti-semitic posts to be 'slamming the door in my face'. If I was a mod here, I'd probably only erase spam and nothing else. ...but I do see your points.

    Moscow?

    He's not black, he's Druze. Druze have an appearance very similar to that of Arabs. What do you think? Also, is it easy to find and hire decent bodyguards for a couple days work?

    Moscow?

    This is disturbing. I've been making preliminary plans lately for a trip to Moscow with a very close friend who served with me in the Israeli army. I can easily pass for white, but he's Druze- so he can't. I hadn't even realized that his dark-skinned appearance could present a problem until now...

    Why does Elitetrader allow anti-semitic posts?

    I'm not going to ask for anyone's censure. The entire concept of <b>Free speech</b> was created to protect repulsive & unpopular speech after all. However, why allow <b>one individual</b> to use a great variety of aliases, in an effort to make it look as though <b>multiple</b> individuals...

    Stalin's Jews

    Have fun taking 1300 year old texts out of context and doling out collective blame. Have you even thought what the Christians of that era <b>did</b> to provoke the Jews of that time to say a few harsh words in retribution? I'll now leave you to this multi-alias orgy of anti-semitism, because...

    Stalin's Jews

    Take <b>any</b> small minority group with a different religion & different manner of dress than the majority. This is <b>usually</b> a universal recipe for hatred, nothing exclusive to the Jews.

    Stalin's Jews

    How about the Roma (gypsies), mentally handicapped, and homosexuals? Did Hitler murder them en masse because they were communists too?

    Saddam is dead, are we safer now?

    He was a sorry excuse for a human being, and I still remember the stench from the inside of my gas mask and the thundering booms all around as the asshole rained scud missiles on Tel Aviv... but he didn't weep in public. There's just no way...

    Well... Yes and no. Would you have made that statement back when you had an illegal drug habit?

    Stalin's Jews

    "The oldest hatred didn't get that way without the ability to adapt. Jews are hated for what they are - so, at any moment in history, whatever they are is what they're hated for. For centuries in Europe, they were hated for being rootless-cosmopolitan types. Now there are no rootless European...
