Frankly, I don't care about any of them and would allow all of them to be legalized. Consensual adults should be allowed to do whatever they want as long as it doesn't cause actual harm to others. And people being "upset" about it doesn't count.

However, if polygamy were legalized, I think only people over 18 should be allowed to enter into a polygamous marriage with no exceptions whatsoever. Too many crazy religious cults have shown that allowing people to get married younger than that in polygamous marriages creates some seriously fucked up situations that in no way shape or form can be called consensual.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
