No, Johnvegas, they didn't!

Check your facts and look them up before you post. The mormon church did not spend one penny to this casue. Some members did contribute, and some contributed against it. The church itself did not endorse or denounce the proposition. As they do with every single election and ballot initiative, they state to vote your concience. No broadcasts to temples or grand parading. Get your facts straight before you post. I am not even mormon and I know these things.

OK Red, here we go,

"Also your reading skills seem to be sub-par considering I had noted that legalizing pot is "a borderline lost cause"." My reading skills are just fine. If this is such a lost cause then why you are still on here wasting you time talking about it? And do you really think that alcohol is not a problem? Sorry, you misunderstood my first post, I should have been more clear. I also misunderstoon your fist post when you said "These people, most embodied by the Mormom political machine, won't let that happen without a fight". I took that as you meant that the words "most embodied" meant something along the lines of the majority or a major force. Good thing you cleared it up by stating "I know the Mormons aren't powerful, but they can strike moral chords at times". I will be sure to polish my reading skills and will try not to make any more poor comparisons and set myself up anymore. Don't want that to lead to anymore hysteria fueled responses.

And the previous post was not comparing gays to trash or nuclear waste. It was saying just because we live in Vegas doesn't mean we will take what everyone else doesn't want for money. I don't want gay marriage or nuclear waste here. I think we have enough to deal with how it is now.

I missed your comment before I posted that last one redferret. Otherwise, I would have said you have your head up your #ss. There are ten million Mormons worldwide, yes WORLDWIDE. There are three hundred million Americans. They are so powerful that Mitt Romney had no chance of being elected because he is a Mormon. Take a small look the Catholic church on the other hand. You know, the church that told it's members to repent if they voted for Obama. Google how many members are in that church. It was about 67 million in 2001 just in the United States alone. Go ahead and keep blaming Mormons though, everyone else does. And your MJ comment is hilarious. One small problem with your arguement. If everyone is smoking weed like cigs, there would be no one working. They would all be stupid stoned saying "dude where's my car". They also could not pass a drug test with any employer, yes no one would hire the idiots.

Good idea Calico! Let's take something else that nobody wants and bring it to our state. I have another great idea; how about taking other states nuclear waste and storing it in Nevada. Wow, that could be profitable too. Let's take what people don't want in their states and bring it to ours, that's a GREAT idea. But I have a better one, let's not take other peoples trash and make our state any worst than it already is.

I have worked in both the juvenile and adult system and it is difficult but not impossible to see the children who can be helped. There are exceptions with some kids that the juvenile system keeps coddling and will not take just action. These are the frustrating cases. Many 16 and 17 year olds know the system very well and know exactly what they can get away with. Their "decision-making judgment centers" may not be fully developed but their manipulating trouble making centers sure work fine. These are the kids who keep committing violent crimes and need to be sent to the adult system. And just so you know, I have never seen a youth in my experience go to the adult system for less that a robbery with a gun. Could have happened, but I didn't see it.

Has anyone else seen the prices at the pump? Last time I checked, energy prices were going south. Why would there be an increase now? Possibly foreclosures, vacant homes or just people paying for food first. So hit the people who are just scraping by. Yes, let me pay for those who can't afford it because I make so much money. What a crock of dung! Don't their plants run on fuel? Gas turbines on many of them right? How, with gas half of what it was 6 months ago, could they actually ask for an increase? I say tell these crooks to take a long walk off a short pier.

My first post was in response to Judy's post about Judge Mosley, not his son. Who said I am an attorney or upset? Just merely stating my opinion as you just did. Have a pleasant evening.

Very intelligent reply JD. Wow, I really thought your last reply was irrellevant but you have broke new ground. Try sticking with the conversation just for a minute Mr. ADD. Thanks

Did I hit a nerve or something JD? I was just making a point that someone was biased probably due to a prior dealing with the judge. Now for my reply to you. First, you said "Are you insinuating that a parent of an incarcerated child is incapable of making an educated and un-biased decision". No, that is not what I was saying. I was trying to make the point that if that child was sentenced by this particular judge that she might be biased. Next, you said "If that is truly your opinion, maybe you should inform Judge Mosley know next time you are in his court room". I am not sure how to respond to that one because I speak and write English. Lets hope that JD in your name isn't for Juris Doctrate or you might need to give that piece of paper back. Now I would like you to go back and read my post and see where I mentioned Michael Mosley. I didn't even mention him did I? I was simply making a point, thanks for taking it out of context.
