Opinions/Editorials Title: I confess - I had a real drug problem!!! The other day, someone at a store, in our town, read that a methamphetamine lab had been found in an old farmhouse in the adjoining county, and he asked me a rhetorical question, "Why didn't we have a drug problem when you and I were growing up?" I replied, "I had a drug problem when I was young. I was drug to church on Sunday mornings. I was drug to church for weddings and funerals. I was drug to family reunions and community socials, no matter the weather. I was drug by my ears when I was disrespectful to adults. I was also drug to the woodshed when I disobeyed my parents or told a lie, brought home a bad report card, did not speak with respect, spoke ill of the teacher or preacher, or if I didn't put forth my best effort in everything that was asked of me. "I was drug to the kitchen sink to have my mouth washed out with soap if I uttered a profanity. I was drug out to pull weeds in Mom's garden and flowerbeds and cockleburs out of dad's fields. I was drug to the homes of family, friends and neighbors to help out some poor soul who had no one to mow the yard, repair the clothesline or chop some firewood, and, if my mother had ever known that I took a single dime as a tip for this kindness, she would have drug me back to the woodshed." Those drugs are still in my veins and they affect my behavior in everything I do, say or think. They are stronger than cocaine, crack or heroin, and, if today's children had this kind of drug problem, America would be a better place. God bless the parents who drugged us!

#10. To: Palmdale (#3) The methamphetamine advocates aren't gonna like your post. You think there are meth advocates? Seriously?
#12. To: sneakypete (#10) The methamphetamine advocates aren't gonna like your post. ---------------------------- YesAll the drug arguments that have been compounded for pot can be applied to meth. Begin with, "It's not the goverment's or anybody else's business what people choose to put in their bodies.". Take the marijuanna arguments, cross out marijunna then replace it with meth and you get what's coming. Working beside someone using meth is real fun. You get someone that is excited because they took something that convinces them they're a genius, but who has an empty head and tries to implement all their illusionary ideas and fantasies at the rate of ten a minute.
#14. To: rlk (#12) The methamphetamine advocates aren't gonna like your post. If you really and truly believe that,you are either insane or stupid.
#24. To: sneakypete (#14) All the drug arguments that have been compounded for pot can be applied to meth. ------------------------- Why are you so angry and insulting? I didn't say I agreed with the arguments. I only said that they have become a socially approved established approach that will be utilized or transferred.
#26. To: rlk (#24) Why are you so angry and insulting? Because you are so profoundly wrong. I didn't say I agreed with the arguments. It sure read/sounded like it. I only said that they have become a socially approved established approach that will be utilized or transferred. Meth and speed freaks will NEVER be socially approved by anyone. Not even other drug users. Both are dangerous,and one is chemically psychotic,has feet and muscles,and dangerous to everyone,not just users. It really,REALLY pissed me off when idiots try to equate meth with marijuana. It's the equivalent of saying a firecracker and a hydrogen bomb are the same.
#28. To: sneakypete (#26) It really,REALLY pissed me off when idiots try to equate meth with marijuana. It's the equivalent of saying a firecracker and a hydrogen bomb are the same. Well stated. I know lots of recreational pot users - good people, hard workers, etc. Meth heads I avoid to the best of my ability.
#29. To: Fred Mertz (#28) Meth heads I avoid to the best of my ability. Anybody that isn't afraid of those psychotic SOB's either doesn't know anything about them and the mental effects of meth,or they are insane themselves. I like to think that I don't scare easily,but you will never catch me turning my back to one of them,or even letting one get close to me. The best thing that can be said about them is they aren't contagious. Other than that,I put them in the same category as rabid dogs. BTW,to any of you that don't know,if you are ever in a position to defend yourself against a speed freak,don't plan on going easy on them at first and then escalating if it starts to get out of hand. It's easy to think that because they almost always look weak. They ain't. It is almost impossible to knock one out,or even hurt him enough he will notice the pain. You MUST do some serious damage right away. Take out a kneecap or hit them in the throat and take out their wind. That way you can get away without having to kill them.
