The answer would seem obvious to everyone but teenagers and the pot smokers who think the world is just full of nice decent folks who happen to like to get high. The truth is that only two kinds of adults involved with drugs, ones with addiction problems/psychological issues and the ones who use drugs to take advantage of others.
For the last 30 years Louis Levine fell into the second category:
For 30 years, police say a teacher has been filming child pornography at his Belle Meade home.
Murfreesboro teacher Louis Levine is behind bars facing federal pornography charges.
Investigators believe there are dozens of alleged victims still to be found.
For three decades, authorities say a home in Belle Meade Highlands has hidden a terrible secret.
Neighbor Sandra Griffith says, “We saw a lot of cars coming and going.”
An alleged crime, neighbor Sandra Griffith says she never noticed until
two years ago.Griffith says, “They were always young teenagers.”
When she started worrying about all the minors visiting Murfreesboro teacher Louis Levine and his teenage son.
Griffith says, “Because sometimes it was during school hours not a lot but always after school always into the evening…all day all night so of course you assume the worst.”
Griffith never though the worst would be the story of teenage sex and drugs and pornography found on a federal affidavit.
It includes statements from alleged victims of all ages, accusing Levine of
allowing teenagers to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana here and engage in sexual intercourse in the building
behind the home called “Little House” and in another room inside the home called the “Isolation Chamber” that held a waterbed with a wooden box over it.U.S. Attorney Ed Yarbrough says, “The allegation in the complaint is that he would provide drugs sometimes candy sometimes alcohol…Also creating an environment where minors felt they could go and participate in illicit conduct without being caught.”
Authorities believe someone was watching though.
According to the avidavit police found an elaborate recording setup and more than 400 tapes and DVD’s.
Evidence they say Levine has been recording underage sexual acts sometimes without participants knowing for three decades.
Levine got kids high(and drunk) because it was the easiest way to fullfill his deviant sexual desires. Dreamin’ Demon has a more detailed description of just how deviant Levine was.
The real question for all you “cool’ parents that don’t mind your kids getting high ishow many Louis Levines are stalking them even now?
You say:
The truth is that only two kinds of adults involved with drugs, ones with addiction problems/psychological issues and the ones who use drugs to take advantage of others.
and then follow it with this report:
It includes statements from alleged victims of all ages, accusing Levine of allowing teenagers to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana here
So why no bad mouthing of alcohol? Or coming to the obvious conclusion that prohibiting these substances to minors has given an opening to malefactors to exploit youth.
I guess it wouldn’t fit the narrative. And yes: the Right and the Left have their narratives. I so look forward to the day when Americans think for themselves. As individuals rather than spouters of some collective meme. Given the current trajectory that might happen as soon as the year 3000. But it could take longer.
Because I did say that alcohol is not good for you (many times) and clearly if drugs were legal it would make it easier for Levine to do this, not harder. I assume you toke up, if it were legal would you, as a teen, have avoided “cool” adults who wanted to get you high?
Don’t be asinine. There are only two kinds of people who get high, and your knee-jerk defense of all parts of the drug culture show that.
I’d like to point out the obvious that those who support a *child’s* right to do drugs (which includes alcohol): A child’s brain is still developing, and drug use is proven to be harmful to that development. There is a reason for the laws against *anyone* providing children with drugs and alcohol. Try doing a bit of research into child development.
As for Americans being able to “think for themselves”, I’ll say this: Adults are supposed to be the responsible ones. They’re supposed to teach children how to be responsible, and do everything possible to keep them from doing anything that is going to be physically or emotionally harmful to themselves. All adults have the *choice* to either break the law, or not break the law, to either contribute to a safe environment for the children around them, or contribute to a harmful environment for those children. Yes, a *few* adults might occasionally smoke pot and make a point not to have any around any child, and make a point to never be around children when they’re high, but it’s rare.
I’d also like to point out that if all drugs were legal, then it would just make it easier for people to become so addicted to those drugs that wreck your body and mind… who do you think will end up supporting those people when they can no longer function in society and take care of themselves?
