It's all about money people. Our goverment is greedy.
The War on Drugs will never end, because the gov makes too much money off of it. Where do you think all that cash goes that the confinscate?

I think that somewhere in the Constitution, it says that as long as this country is NOT at war, our citizens do not have to pay taxes to our gov. Why do you think the US sticks is nose in every war. We have to stay at war for them to fill their pockets.

Another issue is AIDS and Cancer, and this is my thoughts.

Even if they have a cure, it would never be released. Why? Do you realize how many doctors and facilities out there make millions of dollars a year treating these people. If there were no more disease, thousands and thousands of these big money-making business would not exits and many people would be out of work. You think the gov is going to let that happen.

All that money that goes to research and disease is making some people filthy rich.

Rember this: Money is more important than people.
It's sad to say, but true.

When anthrax was threating some gov officials, they found a cure and put an end to that shit quick, but when disease strikes the civilians, they are "trying" to fine a cure for ages.

It all pisses me off.

your exactly right. Mo Money Mo Money Mo Money Show me the money....The U.S. government has green eyes,but,that's ok because,they're all going straight to HELL!

 

[MANWHORE]

I'm voting for Bush...

Commy bastard

 

[BigDrip]

BigDrip for President. LOL... Everyone will be freaky huge at the goverments expense.

 

[bigmik44]

[graybass]

government scumbags

Sorry about my language. Those motherfucking, dicksucking old wrinkled assclowns. How fucking dare they comment on everything they know nothing about, I fucking hate this shit. 99% of the info in the media is complete bullshit. This makes me so angry! (roid rage! LOL) These useless, dryed up old turds, are passing laws on things that they do not have a first graders education on!
A good example is The Howard Stern Show, the only people that say he is obscene are the people who don't listen to him. SO HOW THE FUCK DO THEY KNOW? So you know what? the people who DON'T listen to him, are passing laws to get him off the air. It's the same with steroids, The people who know NOTHING are in control. This makes me want buy a gun and start shootin some fucks.(just kidding, please don't kick in my door Mr. Internet police!!!)
The day someone who has experience gets some say in the laws I'll eat my shirt. (or worse) Lets get some test crazed lunatics with bats to start roaming the the streets and beat some old fat fucks who make the laws. ( Yeah that'll show them to make roids legal) JUST KIDDING! Sorry just really frustrated with all this lack of knowledge.
graybass
I'll go back to minding my own business now.

It's a great day for people who want to drink alcohol, smoke, eat trans fats in everything and not have to worry about juice rackets invading their neighborhoods and jerks like you guys beating everyone up in a blind rage...

And what about the kids...Hopefully soon we'll have pizza hut and other nutritious food chains in all the school cafeterias. That'll keep the kids off andro supplements. Give them good alternatives like no gym class and fast food. And for god sake protect them from the dangers of Howard Stern and the most dangerous thing of all. An education that let's them think for themselves and make decisions. No, we need to restrict choice cause the people are so dumb they might hurt themselves. Feed them fat and sugar and don't let them think too freely. We don't want strong, smart people out there.
They might not elect us.

Politicians, democrats, republicans, judges....they all piss in the same pot.
They are all over greedy and under educated. Disgusting

 

[scrappy]

Anyone know when this might go into effect?

 

[db2]

Bush is just picking up where his father left off. I may be wrong, but didn't daddy institute the 1st anabolic act? Like father like son, in many ways.

This is true, what daddy says goes.... and to those who support bush, I hope to not see you on a thread complaining, when the price of a 10ml vial of test is up to like $300. all this attention is not good, if the gov't makes it a priority to shut down steroid traffickers, you better believe prices will go sky high, and our wonderful selection that we now have will be drastically reduced. you can realize this FACT, or continue to live in your dream world, it is up to you though, YOUR cHOICE!

 

[Bob Smith]

the term `sports facility' means real property where athletic sports or athletic training takes place

this just expanded my previous definition of sports facilities (baseball fields, publib bball courts, golf courses) to also include ANY FREAKIN GYM!! Can any of you honestly say you dont live within 1000 feet of 1) a school, 2) sports fields, or 3) a gym? Im within 1000 feet of two schools and some sports fields.

What I dont get, besides steroids not even matching the Sch III criteria, is how the hell is this law any different than the original law from 1991? Its not! Sports was the only basis for the original law and is the only basis behind this one. AGHH!! This pisses me off.

 

[chris1975]

another reason

True that!!! Well put bro.

another reason never to vote republican! We are at war and Haliburton Corp. is overcharging the fed 3 times what it should be and has yet to pay it's subcrontractors that are serving dinner to our troops. Now the subcontractor is going to start offering the troops cold sandwiches instead of hot meals because they are broke and the govt is conserned about steroid use in sports. jesus christ! The priorities of the U.S. govt. are ass backward!

 

[Crazedlifter]

And Dick Cheney was the CEO of Halliburtons from 99-00. Crooked assed mo-fo's.

Halliburton is also being sued for millions and millions of dollars for overcharging the govt. Do you guys honestly think that this is a republican-only problem and that the dems dont function in the same manner?

I thought i heard that somewhere but wasn't positive. More evidence that this administration is crooked.

 

[scrappy]

Democrats=Republicans

For our purposes, they all suck.
How can we unite and fight this bill?
Hell, how can we fight an existing law?
Prohibition?

 

[peytonpaw]

The government is trying to control everything we do.....How many deaths have been caused by steroids compared to alcohol abuse and smoking, and now over- eating...I cannot believe how much of our lives they are trying to control

All I am really trying to say is that we need Bush out of office.
