Response to New to this website

from odyssea (sad@thestateoftheworld.com)
Frank- are you still around? You are almost singlehandedly everything interesting about this website. Was that in jest, or were you really in lock-up? For pot? If not, (on the second and third counts) nice facade. If so, I fuc!ing feel for you. Because here's what I'm dying to know: How many tax dollars is this country going to waste in the name of ineffectual 'moral' legislation, or flat-out, the Christian Right? It's about time that the law be the law, and private interests find another way to proliferate. The Bill of Rights is pretty much worthless, if subject to interpretation, no? It gives the *voting* majority the right to presuppose the integrity of human action, no? Maybe inclusive to my right to free speech, or freedom of religion, is my right to smoke pot! If I am not endangering the lives of my peers, how is this alienable? If church and state are indeed, SEPERATE, then where do cases regarding drugs, prostitution, et al, beg to materialize? Cases could be argued, and should be. Where are you, Frank? This country might need you.

Casey's older brother can take screenwriting credit for a reference to Howard Zinn's 'A People's History of the United States.' You, Frank, and everybody reading this, should buy a copy. Now. It provides a frame of reference as far as stipulations set for worthless, unconstitutional precedents. It'll make you think twice about not exercising your right to vote.

I want to hear your thoughts, Frank. Please respond if you can.
