Ye Olde Not-So-Current Events Blog


  • If you really care to see the old "once, but no longer current" events blog, here's the archives page. My political views have changed quite a lot since those days of olde, and I'm not always of a mind to discuss them, but, if your mind is open to having an actual productive conversation (i.e. if you're not just out to convert me to your POV) then you just might get lucky. ;o)

Drug war update

There is a truly ferocious comment debate going on over at The Jawa Report over the War on Drugs, being libertarian vs. libertine, being libertarian vs. "Libertarian," and all that good stuff.  I recommend reading it for some highly nutritious food for thought--whatever your position on this issue.

In particular (if you don't have time to read the whole thing) pay attention to the one-on-one between M. Simon and Kip Watson, currently toward the end of the thread.  M. Simon, it turns out, has a blog, Power and Control, that I'll have to keep an eye on.  His latest post, "Moral Sense," brings up some excellent points about drug use and users.

If he is what he seems to be at first glance, he's going on my blogroll.
