Nov 2014

Some people go over there to buy their detergent since we made having phosphates in them illegal. They go get big boxes and bring them back, some with their cigarette runs. In this economy this may create some opportunity for a few, I suspect. It's not like anyone who wants a gun can't get one. I wish they would actually go after the root causes of hate, but perhaps that's too difficult.

Amazing how this country can't figure out that education is more powerful than prohibition will ever be.
