“It’s just hard for the people to vote away prohibition because the disproportionate representation among politicians..”

Politicians who are voted into office, that is by THE PEOPLE. So the majority of politicians are against legalizing drugs? Sounds like you druggie pinheads aren’t a majority after all. Hit that bong some more, junkie and GTFO.

He asked if I’m trying to imitate Arnold! I LOL’d and nearly spit my Coke on the screen when I read that! I’m imitating Arnold like he’s imitating someone babbling about RATIONAL law. This guy is priceless. Oh hey, look! He’s lumped himself in with Hawking and a host of other big brains and progressive-thinking geniuses. Yes, he’s fully tripping now. He should be riding unicorns with Bigfoot right about now.

The popularity of Ultimate Fighting Championship has alerted EVERYONE to how effective good grappling skills are. Even people who don’t train are familiar with ground and pound strategy and can mimic it to some degree when fighting. So yea, lots of fights end up on the ground and traditional martial arts classes just don’t cut it. Unfortunately that’s all we have in my area so I’m crap out of luck. COGrim, you need to come train our department. There’s a case of beer in it for ya!

I was going to have a go at RationalLaw’s silly little game myself but it appears at this point that we are lampooning a mentally handicapped individual. I cannot in good conscience do that. I mean, he’s got a death grip on that “war on drugs is a failure” and “drugs as a victimless crime” lie and he’s not going to let it go. And he even thinks drug users are “responsible”. You just can’t debate someone who operates under delusions hard-wired into their drug-addled brains. All we can hope for is he’ll burn enough brain cells up and forget all about the internet.

This troll is persistent, I’ll give him that. This one has established a good pattern of twisting replies to an absurd spin in order to validate his rhetoric. Shyster salesmen and politicians do the same thing. They stretch something to a preposterous conclusion to make themselves look more reasonable and their talking points more factual compared to other’s. See how he keeps saying "if you are FOR this, you are also FOR (insert much worse thing here). What a tool. The “let-me-educate-you-you’re-a-neanderthal” attitude is a great touch too. Prime example of a narcissistic zealot with an agenda. He’s definitely on something. I give him 6 months till he’s on a milk crate in a public park wearing a foil hat with his wiener hanging out and preaching about the coming apocalypse engineered by the government.

Topic: Everything Education / C.O. Combat Training.

I’m surprised more CO’s don’t talk about this. Its insane that we face the most potential hazard on a daily basis and we get the shaft when it comes to training. I myself have been training in Gracie Jujitsu and MMA just to condition and prepare myself. My fellow CO’s aren’t that concerned about it. When things get exciting, It’s usually up to me to take the lead and handle it. I trust my partners to have my back, but I do wish they were in a little better shape and a little more skilled.

Topic: The Club House / Just Asking.....

I’ve been in corrections about 6 years but just have gotten involved in forums and online resources. I hope there’s more interaction than this because I feel I still have a lot to learn.

RationalLaw, you are in the wrong profession and posting in the wrong forum. Stop trolling and go spew your pro-drugs junk elsewhere because you wont get anywhere here. I really hope you aren’t in corrections for real with that attitude towards the law and your obvious love of drugs. I don’t have much regard for drug addicts either. My best friend’s brother was a dope burnout who killed himself on a motorcycle because he was too high to know what planet he was even on. My family has been effected too. My son-in-law was a pillhead who couldn’t keep a job because all he couldn’t stay sober long enough to work a single day. He lost everything and killed himself leaving a wife and a newborn son. The laws against drugs didn’t have anything to do with it and we tried everything to get him help. A week ago I had a knock-down, drag-out fight with an inmate who was dragged to the jail kicking and screaming. He was high on something and had just beat the living daylights out of his wife and little girl. Hows that for a victimless crime? They said he only gets that way when he’s using. So he just did that because of prohibition? Take your silly anti-prohibition crap and sit on it. I don’t have sympathy either for those who throw their lives away and if your bleeding heart is so in an uproar about it, good for you. You go on ahead and enjoy your drugs and preach your druggie sermons but go do it in a more receptive and appropriate place.
