New House Bill would make it illegal for an American to plan to use drugs in another country, even i - Polidicks

I'm trying to see things from their perspective, but I'm failing terribly.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/lZKcH.png[/IMG] Yup,no surprise there only Texans could come up with such an idiotic law.

Many, many issues.[/QUOTE] "You can get [prescription drug] without a prescription in [country]" Bam, off to the slammer

I'm godless [B]AND[/B] a Communist! I guess I get to smoke as much weed as I want! :v:

Suddenly all of the users in Drug Discussion stop logging in.

[QUOTE=Sexy Eskimo;32677116]Damn i love taking drugs they really improve my life! I totally need more drugs in my life. I'm so outraged over this. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE] certainly has not improved your posts

Okay, so wait. What if you made a facebook account on behalf of an American (Hell even a politician) and posted shit like "Going to get baked in amsterdam next month" Would that person just get jailed? Stupid fucking ideas.

I don't understand why anyone votes for the republicans.

Team America, World Police.

[QUOTE=Egg;32679621]I don't understand why anyone votes for the republicans.[/QUOTE] Stupid people.

Wow this is the craziest idea I've heard of all week... Anyway, good luck enforcing that. I don't see any country helping you with that, which means this is even a waste of time to think about. As if Amsterdam was gonna stop selling to everyone who comes from America. Haha, the more I think about it, the craziest and stupid it gets.

[QUOTE=BANNED USER;32677968]So what's this about America being a free country? Meh, I stand by it. This is some babysitting bullshit. The US doesn't own me, they cannot control me outside their borders. Fuck off![/QUOTE] Yeah we preach about how free we are when basically any civilized nation in the world today enjoys the same freedoms that we do on a regular basis except they do it better.

Thank god I'm not American. Whew, sucks to be you guys.

I am american. :cry: And I passionately hate the republican party now.

So being an American citizen, when I come visit my friends and family in America, I can't plan on going back here to China for some of that mofuckin opium??

[QUOTE=Shiftyze;32680685]So being an American citizen, when I come visit my friends and family in America, I can't plan on going back here to China for some of that mofuckin opium??[/QUOTE] Okay we get it you live in China now

[QUOTE=Jund;32680710]Okay we get it you live in China now[/QUOTE]Um was just making a joke about being in China. Not stating anything.

I don't care as much about the actual law other than it's stupid and very hard to enforce. What worries me is, that for example if i smoke a joint with someone from USA here in my country and USA somehow found out. Will they then demand him handed over back to USA for punishment and can they actully do it? And what about if in the same example again smoke a joint with a US resident and we get caught by the danish police and get the standard fine, will the police then tell the american authorities so he can get punished twice?

I thought Republicunts were for small government? Now they want to track and prosecute citizens who get drugged up in other countries?

[QUOTE=pg.;32681353]I thought Republicunts were for small government?

How they keep fooling people, I'll never know. This sounds like textbook dystopia material to me.

how the fuck will they even be able to tell if there's two people who say "let's go to amsterdam and get fucking baked" and then proceed to go to amsterdam and do so, how will the government know? [editline]8th October 2011[/editline] also wouldn't this make harold and kumar illegal

And Republicans say that they want less government in their lives. This just adds even more.

....Thought crimes? You do realize most Americans don't think right? :v: Oh and nice slippery slope statements.

[QUOTE=ewitwins;32676777]How... is this even possible?[/QUOTE] It's actually not that unusual. As plans to commit a crime are criminal as well. And that even in the case the actual crime happens in another nation. Typical examples of this are murder. keep in mind thoughcrime is a different territory to planning a crime. A thoughcrime would be merely thinking about committing one. This is different in that that the perpetrator has already began putting motions forward that would allow him to accomplish said crime. (placing an order for instance)

wow,this is the stupidest thing I have ever heard

Would this apply also for 18 year olds that go abroad to get legally wasted? Alcohol is legal, but not for that age

[QUOTE=lolwutdude;32676943][url]http://www.gop.com/index.php/issues/what_we_believe/[/url] lolwut[/QUOTE] Hence why Libertarians are way cooler than Republicans.

OH AMERICA! You just love pissing off your own citizens don't you?

Republicans don't even know what they stand for anymore, it's sick.
