Guns ‘n’ Dope(s)
Disclaimer: I’ve never been a fan of libertarians or their goofy ideology. Essentially, self-described libertarians are Republicans who want to smoke dope or legalize prostitution or are simply tired of having to apologize for the latest wackiness of the religious right.
Public support for libertarian candidates, at all levels, has been waning for the past decade as the electorate has come to understand exactly how silly and impractical the libertarian ideology is.
Therefore, imagine my delight at finding conservative gunloon Sebastain Sassi is running for state office as a libertarian. And he’s on a ticket filled with fellows who believe society’s greatest issue is the legalization of marijuana!
Preach it, Brother Jadegold.
I had no idea that Libertarians like myself felt the number one issue facing us was pot legalization, and not personal choice and less intrusive government or other such trivialities. Thank you for clearing that up for me. I am now so shamed I will send a big check to Dennis Kucinich and change my party affiliation to Socialist.

Apparently, so.
Here is the agenda from Sebastain Sassi’s Coming out party.

Ticket seems a bit heavy with dopers, no?

Seems that they have issues with the fact that most of the space in our prisons are filled with non-violent drug criminals. Their concern seems reasonable. Is it possible that “Prohibition, the Revenge” is working out about as well as the original? I don’t even drink alcohol, let alone use drugs, but it seems like it is not my business how you choose to alter your brain chemistry as long as you don’t cause others harm with whatever it is you use.
