An idiot legislator wishes to make one register to buy baking soda. Why? Because it can be used to make crack.

I don’t do drugs; I don’t particularly want to do drugs. But can someone please tell me how this is a legitimate power of the State? Can someone please tell me how this enables life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness?

We didn’t put our feet down when the federal government unconstitutionally banned marijuana and cocaine. We didn’t put our feet down when cold medicine was made a controlled substance. We didn’t put our feet down when cold medicine was turned into a placebo. We didn’t put our feet down when paint became a controlled substance. We didn’t put our feet down when lye became a controlled substance. Will we finally stand up for our rights when baking soda is controlled?

I strongly doubt it.

Orlando police arrested a man for feeding the homeless. Orlando has a law against feeding more than 25 people at a time within 2 miles of City Hall without a permit (such permits are available but twice a year).

I’m a firm believer that the punishment should fit the crime. In this case, the Orlando city government and the police officers in question should have their stomachs stapled. How dare they arrest a man for feeding the hungry?
