Fergie's record on crime is bad indeed. Personally, I'm OK with legalizing drugs. If people want to ruin their lives or kill themselves, who am I to say they shouldn't or can't? Crime, however, is another story. While we need police, police are not enough to combat crime. Police tell us that 90% of crimes are committed by repeat offenders. The most effective way to reduce the rate and number of crimes is to shoot criminals. Self defense should be expanded to include property crimes. That way when someone is trying to steal a car, the owner or his or her friend can legally shoot the thief. That ends the career of that offender who won't repeat offend any longer. Shooting thieves is the best way to reduce the supply of criminals. As the supply of criminals is depleted, the number of crimes will go down dramatically. And criminals who haven't yet been shot may be inclined to rethink their occupational choice. Now just how is this a bad idea?

Another hint: it ain't the Republican Party either.

Seems the liberal fucktards still haunt this place, guess I will check back in several more years.

Streamer,

You got me there. The last R I voted for was the Sec. of State, Kim somebody. I won't vote for an R who is anti-abortion, anti-gay. That's been my line in the sand. And I don't even have a dog in that fight. Rs say they are for less government and less government interference in people's lives -- until they aren't.
