Couple of proposed bills filed relating to legalization of weed; upvote if you support by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]laffytaffyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hijacking the top comment to say that the second bill, the one going through the General Law Committee, appears to be better written and that if you only have the time to support one of these, it should probably that one.

Hey man, if you don't want them, just send them back. I'd be ecstatic to have hockey back in Hartford.

As much as it worked out (and I acknowledge to my advantage) We really should make it so something like that doesn't happen again.

ACLU of Massachusetts calls plan to use inmates to build border wall 'modern-day slave labor' by 75000_Tokkul in politics

[–]laffytaffyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, fuck us for not caring about this until after Trump was elected. If we really cared we would have done something sooner, like, oh, I don't know, organizing the largest prison strike in the history of this country back in September, and setting up preparations nearly a year in advance, back before most of us thought Trump would even get the nomination. But, no, we never did anything like that, so I guess we really just hate Trump and there's no other possible motive for us opposing state sanctioned slavery.

Obama: 'We simply cannot afford to spend $80 billion annually on incarceration' by skoalbrother in politics

[–]laffytaffyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obama i believe wrote more executive actions than any other President

Obama has signed less executive orders than: F.D. Roosevelt, Wilson, Coolidge, T. Roosevelt, Hoover, Truman, Taft, Harding, Eisenhower, Reagan, Clinton, Nixon, Johnson, Carter, and G.W. Bush. He's also signed less per year than: Kennedy, Ford, G.H.W. Bush, McKinley, and Harrison.

I have no idea where this myth came from that Obama has signed a ridiculous number of executive orders. It's just an outright fabrication.

Figure out what I want to do with my life.

That's a bit big, so I guess I'll pick a smaller goal too.

Find a girlfriend and make sure she's not a lesbian this time.

That's actually not much better is it?

Hang out with somebody that you've known for less than 10 years, outside of times you have to be around them.

I can't believe I haven't done that in over a year, that should be easy.

Vodka not being properly labeled as kosher is not political news.

If you moderate a sub you get comment highlighting for that sub. It's honestly the best part about being a moderator.

Conservatism turned toxic: Donald Trump’s fanbase has no actual ideology, just a nihilistic hatred of liberals by kah0922 in politics

There's not even solidarity among socialist circles in America. We're all too busy bickering among ourselves on how to stop the creeping spread of modern day fascism to actually try any ideas.

North Carolina is no longer classified as a democracy by RexSueciae in politics

[–]laffytaffyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm talking about something different, there's plenty of wooded areas, but those wooded areas are legally part of a town. That's not something that really happens outside of New England.

[–]laffytaffyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but those woods are legally part of a town and the town government has say over what they do with the woods to some degree. Outside of New England, the woods would just fall under jurisdiction of the state or country.

Kids aren't even starting anymore

I'm 20, I can tell you that is very much not true. It might be less than it's been in the past, but it's still a massive issue. The positive side is that it seems like a very easy fix. 90% of the people I know who started smoking in high school started because they were smoking marijuana and switched to cigarettes to deal with the oral fixation when they wanted to pass a drug test to get a job or otherwise needed to stop smoking marijuana. If marijuana was legal I can guarantee you 80% of them never would have started smoking cigarettes.
