(authored by the former police chief of seattle. he advocates legalizing all drugs)

and

(by one garrison keillor. 8 years for murder vs. a life sentence for growing pot...?)

we sure do like to waste money on the fundamentalist agenda.
people need to start standing up to the hardline religious freaks. they're not just ruining a country, they're ruining a world.

separation of church and state?
how about separation of religion and society?
clearly religion -- not faith, or morality, mind you -- has done this world more harm than good.

i am an apostate.
