Porn, Pot, Prostitutes and Politicians Platitudes (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Banning boobs, booty, bongs and ass for cash. A humorous and brutally honest look at the failed drug, pornography and prostitution policies of the U.S. which are bankrupting and incarcerating Americans for political gain. {Excerpt}...Rather than keeping the murderers, rapists, serial killers and pedophiles jailed, due to chronic overcrowding, potheads, hookers, and adult entertainers are occupying that same space. This situation is bankrupting our counties, cities and ultimately our whole country. Our penal system can not continue to maintain the massive numbers of revolving 'criminals' that are, to a certain extent, only considered criminals because they offend the religious notions of certain people. {Excerpt}...Our society, politicians and judicial system love to declare war on things. War on illiteracy. War on drugs. War on porn. War on obesity. War on pollution. War on prostitution. War on drinking and driving. War on smoking. War on crime. War on pre-marital sex. War on post-marital sex. War on fun and kinky sex. (Ok I made the last couple up, but you get my point). {Excerpt}...While one is standing in line having their I.D.s checked and photocopied by pharmacy staff, there is an abundance of alcohol right next to the pharmacy, where one can purchase quantities that can kill not only themselves, but a herd of elephants, plus fuel a cross country trip in a vehicle.{Excerpt}... Regardless of a substance, used in excess, prescribed or not, driving under the influence is a threat to society. Anyone doing so should be arrested and appropriate steps taken. However, studies prove that using cell phones while driving, or women (or metro-sexual man-scapers) applying makeup, people changing Cd's, messing with iPods, eating lunch, or masturbating cause wrecks, and are certainly more of a danger than someone that smoked some weed. I've never heard nor known of anyone getting into a traffic accident as a result of being stoned. {Excerpt}...People get arrested for having Marijuana seeds in their ashtray, or paraphernalia in their cars such as roach clips (leads for electronic testing equipment), razor blades, a straw, and even baggies. Baggies? Are you serious? How many baggies am I allowed to own before it is deemed by some "Barney Fife" that my buying in bulk is proof of my being a drug dealer? If someone gets busted for having seeds and baggies in their car during a routine traffic stop (you know, where someone is pulled over and they search his/her car and person for no reason, no probable cause, no reasonable suspicion and are arrested), why am I, as a taxpayer, paying for them to sit in jail over a four day holiday weekend? Why am I picking up the tab because someone wants to get high and relax fully on a weekend? Take the seized marijuana and donate it to cancer patients, wounded military members, etc.{Excerpt}...The "pillars" of the community not only frown on her opting to make a gainful living by engaging in adult entertainment, they make every attempt to outlaw it. Ironically these same jackasses are the first to hit the D.C. strip clubs after their brutal 2 hour workday.America has millions of full time workers with no health insurance, we have a couple million homes without phone service, and hundreds of thousands without plumbing and every day thousands of babies are born and go immediately into the poverty bracket.Women are expected to be mothers and role models, while the males running this country are out getting blowjobs from interns (or in airport restrooms), screwing around on their wives, raping and robbing your pension plans, giving themselves raises every other day, all the while laying guilt trips, and making laws against a woman using her body to make a decent living to provide for herself and her family.Apparently "using her body" only applies to the sexual occupations. As if spending 45 years as a waitress, a seamstress, a store clerk, and hundreds of other jobs is not "using her body".
