Well, clearly we all know my stance on youth rights....

LET THEM VOTE!

Oh why you ask?
One reason and ONE reason only.

Taxation without Representation.

They can get jobs and they pay taxes -- income taxes, sales taxes etc.

SO WHY THE FUCK CAN'T THEY VOTE YOU ASSHOLES?

"Minors" and Pot - Why We Should Let Them

There's a talk about legalizing marijuana for personal and recreational use. With that there's talk of which age one should be allowed to smoke or be in possession of a said drug without risk of being hauled off to jail, being charged as a minor, possibly being raped in prison or otherwise assaulted, being introduced to much harder drugs due to the fact that prison are the very highest form of an insecure facility, being raped and assaulted by prison guards, losing the right to vote and so and so forth. That being said jail/prison is an extremely bad place to be. It does not rehabilitate anyone and if it ever has that wasn't due to prison that was due to that individual person.

So the question is, which age should someone be allowed to willingly partake in a plant that grows naturally and has been growing naturally since time immemorial? According to popular opinion marijuana makes you lazy and we can't have lazy kids! They'll become even more spoiled than they are now! We can't have that! Drugs are bad! Kids are bad! We can't have them mixing, no no no *shakes finger*

I humbly disagree

Kids (aka "minors" (it's a dirty word around these parts, ya hear?!) are given drugs today, all sorts of drugs not the least commonly prescribed of which being Ritalin. That's right folks, the "sit down, shut up" drug,

(oh the irony).

You see the goal of diagnosing someone with ADHD is to drug them up so you don't have to deal with them, why do I know this? Because these are the symptoms associated with ADHD (according to wikipedia).

Predominantly inattentive type symptoms may include:

• Be easily distracted, miss details, forget things, and frequently switch from one activity to another (Shit, I have 5 pages of homework to do and 4 tests... goddamnit, I don't have enough time to finish all this shit!! Fuck!!!)
  
• Have difficulty focusing on one thing (I have too much fucking work like I said!!)
  
• Become bored with a task after only a few minutes, unless they are doing something enjoyable (Yeah listening to your voice all day is pretty fucking boring, let's do something that ISN'T so boring... like going outside to play?! WHAT I CAN'T GO OUTSIDE NOW? IT'S NOT TIME TO PLAY... NOOOO)
  
• Have difficulty focusing attention on organizing and completing a task or learning something new (depends on whether or not I WANT TO LEARN IT)
  
• Have trouble completing or turning in homework assignments, often losing things (e.g., pencils, toys, assignments) needed to complete tasks or activities (who the fuck wants to do homework and all 5 pages of it?! FUCK NO)
  
• Not seem to listen when spoken to (just because I don't look like I'm listening, doesn't mean I'm actually not listening, I don't HAVE to look at every single word your mouth forms in order for my ears to hear it)
  
• Daydream, become easily confused, and move slowly (if you DON'T day dream, there's something wrong with you, it's easy to confuse anyone if you start spouting bullshit/lies, I'm not going to run everywhere... fuck you want me to sit still!! Which is it? Sit still or run around the place... fuck... I'm so confused!! Time to think about something that isn't so mentally retarded)
  
• Have difficulty processing information as quickly and accurately as others (I learn at MY own pace, fuck off)
  
• Struggle to follow instructions. (Maybe I'd follow them IF YOU EXPLAINED THEM MORE CLEARLY, ASSHOLE)
  

Predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type symptoms may include:

• Fidget and squirm in their seats (sitting down for 5 hours is killer on the joints)
  
• Talk nonstop (I'm tired of hearing YOU talk so much, now it's MY turn, bitch)
  
• Dash around, touching or playing with anything and everything in sight (I'VE BEEN SITTING IN THE FUCKING SEAT ALL DAY, I'M BORED AS FUCK)
  
• Have trouble sitting still during dinner, school, and story time (I'VE BEEN SITTING A FUCKING CHAIR ALL DAY, WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU EXPECT, MORE SITTING? FUCK NO!)
  
• Be constantly in motion (I'm like a shark if I don't move I die... of boredom)
  
• Have difficulty doing quiet tasks or activities. (Well... exCUSE me if moving things around cause noise and disrupt YOUR day, YOU aren't forced to sit a fucking chair without moving ALL DAY LONG, ARE YOU?)
  

and also these manifestations primarily of impulsivity

• Be very impatient (Being forced to sit in a hard, cold chair all day will do that to you... NOW LET ME OUT OF THIS FUCKING CHAIR ALREADY)
  
• Blurt out inappropriate comments, show their emotions without restraint, and act without regard for consequences (Yeah like "fuck you teacher, I'm not sitting down anymore! My joints are killing me!? What about exercise is good for you do you NOT understand?! No one everyone is so fat nowadays, STOP STIFLING MY EMOTIONS!!! I'm fed up with your bullshit teacher, let me fucking out of this fucking prison already!!!)
  
• Have difficulty waiting for things they want or waiting their turns in games (I WANT TO GO HOME NOW, WHAT ABOUT NOW DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND YOU FUCKWITS?!?)
  

You see this? All these symptoms are NORMAL CHILDREN BEHAVIORS!
Children are being forcibly medicated (remember they can't refuse or consent to medical treatment!)

This is the type of drug children should NOT be on under ANY circumstances for these behaviors. Side note, did you know there's a fucking "disorder" called

Which symptoms are THIS FUCKING BULLSHIT:

A pattern of negativistic, hostile, and defiant behavior lasting at least 6 months, during which four (or more) of the following are present:
Note: Consider a criterion met only if the behavior occurs more frequently than is typically observed in individuals of comparable age and developmental level.

1. often loses temper (dealing with assholes all day is an unfortunate side effect)
   
2. often argues with adults (OMFG, DIFFERING OPINIONS!??1 HOLY SHIT!!)
   
3. often actively defies or refuses to comply with adults' requests or rules (Unreasonable rules are intolerable)
   
4. often deliberately annoys people (you fucking annoy me, asshole)
   
5. often blames others for his or her mistakes or misbehavior (that's right bitch it's YOUR FAULT! No really... it is, you caused this, asshole)
   
6. is often touchy or easily annoyed by others (YEAH, YOU)
   
7. is often angry and resentful (Wouldn't you be angry for being treated like an incompetent monkey all the time?!)
   
8. is often spiteful or vindictive (I WANT TO CONTROL MY FUCKING LIFE ASSHOLE)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No wonder kids want to smoke pot! No wonder ANYONE wants to smoke when they're treated worse than dirt just because they're under 21!

Yep, I said 21 not 18. Why? Because the argument is that no one under 21 is competent enough to handle marijuana (hurr durr when they can handle RITALIN? What the fuck shit?!)

Why is this? Well since alcohol can kill those under 21 marijuana can too right? WRONG. Marijuana has not killed a single person, or caused cancer etc. Nothing of the sort. So why 21? Because 18-20 year olds are not adults and HELL NO under-18s are sure as HELL not going to be able to smoke the sacred grass because it makes them lazy!! Well that's what you wanted you fuckshits, those erroneously diagnosed with ADHD were too active and now that there's a drug they actually WANT to take you deny them it?! What the motherfucking hell?!
---------

Yeah, so we should let them. Why should we let them smoke? Here's why (besides the fact they're all already drugged up with ritalin and the like which causes some nasty side effects, marijuana only causes sleepiness and munchies.... not near as bad as ritalin's)

1. HARMLESS -- they can't overdose on it no matter how hard you abusive parents shove it down their throats (that's right you crazies, you can't kill them with ritalin anymore!! HA AHA HA)
2. Side effects - sleepiness and munchies
3. They don't have to smoke it retards, they can eat it in food or drink it in tea if you're so damn concerned about "lung cancer" (no one has ever gotten cancer from smoking marijuana either, HAHAHA)
4. They already do it rather you like it or not but are getting imprisoned, introduced to drugs and people that will ACTUALLY eventually lead to their death and losing financial aid for school so WHAD'YA KNOW they're forced BY LAW to go back on the streets BECAUSE THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO GO TO COLLEGE BECAUSE OF A DRUG CONVICTION AND BETTER THEMSELVES SO THEY'RE STUCK OUT ON THE STREETS. GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT LAWMAKING ASSHOLES.

It was Consensual Officer! Why are you charging me with rape?

Two consenting people have sex, does society have a problem with that? One would generally want to say 'No' but alas if you're under 18 or s/he's over 18 you can't consent to sex or sexual things, because you're incompetent. And even in the states where you can consent at a younger age (16+) you still can't take pictures of it, because then you'd be in possession of child pornography. Yes, you, YOURSELF, are bound by pain of being registered as a SEX OFFENDER to not take any too provocative pictures of yourself (you don't even have to be naked) and if the cop's penis twitches, say goodbye life as you know it.

Doesn't this world suck? Isn't this world unfair? Aren't people truly evil? They are and these things need to change NOW. No, not now, several thousand years ago they needed to change, oh wait, just kidding because people under 18-16 WERE ALLOWED TO HAVE SEX WITH ONE ANOTHER YOU FUCKING FAGGOT AUTHORITY FIGURES.

I want to hit them, hard, I want to smack some sense into them because they're are so fucking stupid. THEY WANT TO PREVENT THOSE YOUNGER THAN THEM FROM DOING ANYTHING OR HAVING ANY FUN AT ALL BECAUSE THEY'RE NO LONGER YOUNG.

I hate them, I want them to stop, THEY'RE EVIL.

I am raging so hard right now it's not funny anymore. I want to do something to help these victims, we're ALL victims, anyone who has ever been treated poorly because of their age. This is such madness, I swear, the world has gone batshit insane, I can't take this anymore. It's wrong, it's unjust, it's unfair, it hurts, it kills, it maims, it even rapes (go to jail, get raped, ????, kill yourself... I would anyways).

Why are you so evil? What have we done to piss you off so much, great authority figure? Are you so jealous of us you must seek to punish us at every turn?

I hate you.

You need to stop.

NOW

The Justice System Says I'm an Adult, So Where are My Rights? (prepare to be mindfucked)

Truth be told, if you're under 18 you're legally considered to be an adult.

True story look up just about any news story about someone under 18 being charged "as an adult." "As an adult" is a a simile (like or as) According to http://www.dictionary.com/ this is what a simile is:

"A common figure of speech that explicitly compares two things usually considered different"

An adult is considered different from a child (or legally, a minor) and that cannot be debated, at least on a legal standpoint... well almost... on some levels.

Since the "minor" is being charged "as an adult" this LEGALLY means they are an adult. (As also meaning they ARE, "as you were" = "do what you are doing"). So if I were under 18 and was accused of certain crimes (any involving bodily injury or attempted bodily injury). I knew what I was doing because I am an adult!! (Minors, legally don't know they're doing, but are still held responsible and are still sent to jail and what not... boy, the contradictions keep mounting on top of one another).

Adults are ALL considered responsible (introduce me to one, PLEASE) and therefore they're RESPONSIBLE for their actions and as some retarded hicks love to say "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime" (**Throws rocks at them to shut them up and make them realize how much of an asshole they are***). Minors are considered to be partially responsible for their actions but their actions are so heavily regulated that they're asking to get caught. The pressure is simply too high for most if not all to break, if only in the US.

Long story short: You're under 18? You're a minor. You're under 18 and commit a crime? WELCOME TO THE RESPONSIBLE WORLD OF ADULTHOOD... 20 TO LIFE!

Underage Drinking - It's more dangerous to your life than you'd think (but not for the reasons why you'd think)

UNDERAGE DRINKING
UNDER 21 DRINKING
MINOR'S IN POSSESSION OF ALCOHOL
MINOR'S IN CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL
ADULT BEING CHARGED AS A MINOR
(srsly guys... WTF?!)

AGE OF MAJORITY
I AM AN ADULT
OR AM I?
FUCK

Underage drinking is dangerous to your health and your safety. Underage drinking can ruin your life, your grades can be so inhibited by your underage drinking that you are forced to drop out of school, you may be fired for underage drinking and you may be killed due to the effects of underage drinking being in places you never wanted to be... because of underage drinking... You can be forced from your home for not being able to pay bills for underage drinking. You can be put into some of the most traumatic situations due to underage drinking, you can be raped underage drinking. Underage drinking may lead to your death.

What's wrong? Have I changed? Have I fallen... MADD?

XD

HAHA, no I haven't. When I speak of "underage drinking" I speak of this.... let's replace it what I really meant... the effect of getting caught... underage drinking....

Getting arrested is dangerous to your health and your safety. Getting arrested can ruin your life, your grades can be so inhibited by your getting arrested that you are forced to drop out of school, you may be fired for getting arrested and you may be killed due to the effects of getting arrested being in places you never wanted to be... because of getting arrested... You can be forced from your home for not being able to pay bills for getting arrested. You can be put into some of the most traumatic situations due to getting arrested, you can be raped getting arrested. Getting arrested may lead to your death.

It's true many people die in jail, are raped, or are lead into a very very terrible life, far more terrible than they could have EVER imagined with merely drinking, and being under 21. They may be adults but the so-called "justice" system sees fit to treat them like children yet punish them like adults. It's a triple paradox:

ADULT (18-20) right = MINOR (child) charges = ADULT punishment

It's cruel and it's unusual and quite frankly it's

EVIL

Youth aren't worth as much as you, even legal adults.

ACCORDING to the federal government, legal adults 20 years and under are not worth as much as someone 20+ for the first 90 days of employment, legally and rather offensively.

For SOME reason the age of adulthood, the age of REASON, is never really attained until you're like 50 or something with a couple thousand in the bank and 2 or 3 kids and a well paying job. Oh no I kid you not, this is the picture of "adulthood" that is slowly appearing in my mind as I read all the rules and regulations against people, just because the number attached to their name isn't enough... or is... as sometimes is the case... too much (think sex).

Returning to the point, the law says... and I quote:

"A minimum wage of not less than $4.25 may be paid to employees under the age of 20 for their first 90 days of employment with any employer as long as their work does not displace other workers. After 90 days of employment, or when the worker reaches age 20 (whichever comes first), the worker must receive at least the federal minimum wage."

There are two clauses in the first sentence (the only 2 clauses) that need to be noted. The first of which is obviously the clause that says someone under 20 is worth a measly $4.25/hr for the first 3 months even though the federal minimum wage demands that employees be paid.... THE FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGE... and $4.25/hr is very much not the federal minimum wage. Before I inquire as to reasons for this... I won't... I won't inquire because we all know the reason for this... a blind person could see why this is way that this is...

TWO REASONS

1st reason:

Old people (20+ is the effective age of majority for THIS law) don't want to lose their jobs to ANYONE for ANY REASON (yes, even if they're stronger, better, faster... oh and smarter too) so they must do something to discourage their potential "displacement" (i.e. they get their old, miserable asses out the door and make way for new, younger, healthier, better looking young people). In short, they don't WANT under 20 year olds to work.... AT ALL. You can't do SHIT with $4.25/hr! SHIT!!! That's like 2 trips on a bus... to get to work and get home! It's criminal and thus is one more thing on my list to be fixed (which may or may not ever happen).

2nd reason:

"..with any employer as long as their work does not displace other workers"

WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? No, it doesn't define it, it just says it. So long as their work does not displace other workers? So if it does does that mean they are to be paid full minimum wage? I don't know BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SAY. Does it mean they'll not be hired/fired... I don't know.... BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SAY.

Oh yeah, the real second reason.... people in charge are assholes.... ASSHOLES.

And you can quote me on that! ;)

(P.S. here's the link to the offensive law: here)

Candy Lightner thinks soldiers aren't adults.... that might explain the way my father acts....

For those of you who didn't know Candy Lightner, or as we shall call her from now on, Candy, was once a [very] MADD president (and the founder, actually). I happened upon two quotes of hers which scream HYPOCRITE (also, bitch but that's for another time).

The first quote seems extremely reasonable and in fact I wholeheartedly AGREE with it. It's very sound and not the least bit MADD (pun intended).

Here's the quote:

"If you want to drink, that's your business. But as soon as you drink and get behind the wheel of a car, it becomes my business."

Yeah, if you want to drink, go for it, but once you get in the car my chances of dying go up just a little bit more (even if I'm not in a car, because you could crash into my house... probably not but hey it's not impossible). And Mrs. Candy lost her 13 year old daughter to a repeat drunk driver. I've been able to find no information about how old he/she/it was but the chances that the driver
was well in excess of 21. I dunno why I just have this feeling because no where in any internet resources does it mention the age of the driver, I would like to find out but since the driver was over 21 they feel no need to mention his age because it has no bearing on her NEXT quote. (The one that makes her a hypocritch (or does hypobitch sound better to anyone?)).

Before someone gets MADD at me I know, her daughter was killed by a repeat drunk driver and that truly is a horrible thing and should never have happened and I feel really bad especially since her daughter didn't have any rights (but that's a story for another time). I just take offense to this quote and I'll just go ahead and quote her:

"It [the brain of 18-year-olds] isn’t developed, and that’s exactly why the draft age is 18, because these kids are malleable. They will follow the leader, they don’t think for themselves and they are the last ones I want to say ‘here’s a gun, and here’s a beer.’ They are not adults; that’s why they’re in the military. They are not adults."

Being the extremely logical person I am. Let's quickly deconstruct what she just said.

First quote, she said:

"If you want to drink, that's your business. But as soon as you drink and get behind the wheel of a car, it becomes my business."

"You" means the reader or the listener and the readers/listeners can and are any age, so anyone of any age can drink and that's their business is what she exactly said. Yep.

Moving to the next quote she said 18 year olds become soldiers because they malleable and follow orders, and soldiers are supposed to follow orders so.... soldiers aren't adults? Hmmm.... that would explain the behavior of my father but he wasn't 18 when he enlisted he was 21+ (I think he was like 23/24/25).

So in short, as the title says, Candy doesn't think soldiers are adults, so Candy is very unamerican.

;)
