Your Questions About Sustainable Energy Fund

Just so we start off clear:
“The word ‘veganism’ denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to end the idea of animals as property and exclude all forms of intentional exploitation of, use of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing, research or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, including people and the environment.
In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.”

Cannabis legalization is not a vegan or vegetarian issue and want to make that clear as well.

My personal position is it should be fully legal and has actual serious medical uses that can actually help people. Some people do use it for recreation and I don’t believe that is a good thing but I am not against them doing that so long as it doesn’t effect anyone else. I would rather see legalized “pot” then people popping pills all the time from big pharma, that are all tested on animals and made with unnatural ingredients and are not good for us. Plus it is better than smoking cigarettes and drinking and for sure better than synthetic cannabis marketed as incense/potpourri which is still legal and can cause serious health problems.

Plus hemp which has no Tetrahydrocannabinol (the substance in the cannabis plant that has psychoactive properties) is useful for a million and a half things and really the reason it cannot be grown here is because multi-millionaire William Randolph Hearst (who also supported Hitler early on and created yellow journalism) said it would stop people from making paper (which is where he was getting most of his money). Plus hemp is also a pretty sustainable crop and easy to grow.

Many people in jail and prison right now are in for non-violent “pot” related offenses. They aren’t a threat to anyone and are costing taxpayers billions of dollars to help fund the prison industrial complex. Some of those people are learning about crime and being “bad” people because of the anti-restorative nature of U.S. Prisons. If it was legal less people in prisons over non-violent drug “crimes” and less money being wasted on people who were never a threat.

So all in all legalize it, plus you can tax it and generate more revenue which could go towards education and ending homelessness and poverty, funding clean, green energy as well as building hospitals, fire stations and other things that help us. I have not heard of people dying from pot or because someone else smoked pot. It usually tends to mellow you out. I know people who have smoked and they are pretty normal people who except maybe a little less stressed and much more calm and relaxed.

I personally don’t smoke cannabis and have no plans to ever do so however if need be for medical reasons I might use a cannabis product but probably one containing less THC and more CBD which has more health benefits and less psychoactive properties. However hopefully I should never need to use cannabis or any drugs.

EDIT:
@Dion the problem with freedom is when your “freedom” effects someone else. Everyone has a right to freedom not just you and those who you want to have freedom. So eating meat is not a choice that someone who is pro-freedom would make as it takes away freedom from others.

Your little comment sounds like something out of the 1800s, some southerner with a plantation talking about how African people that were taken/stolen from Africa against their will are his property now and don’t deserve rights. Do you have any more gems? Maybe animals should be killed because they are quote “inferior” to the pure species (humyns) like what someone like Hitler would say. It is lovely when someone whines about freedom yet has no problem taking away someone else’s freedom because they view them as lessers just as every oppressor throughout history has done. You are helping the people who wish to take away freedom, the racists, the sexists, the nazis, the homophobes, the fascists, the slave owners, the terrorists…

Using animals as slaves and slavery are not connected…shoot, I guess we should call Websters and tell them that. You should also tell all the history book makers that slaves were not considered property. Of course all of that would be false but I guess facts and logic elude you.
I never said that your pic was a self portrait, I simply laughed at you for paying money for it or if not stealing it since you love your property.

So basically what you are saying is you are giving up because you have lost and trying desperately to save face. You refuse to see what is right in front of you and try and lie and avoid it as if the truth is going to kill you…rather sad in a way.

You talk about animals being property but you deny slavery? Doesn’t make any sense
