Well i guess its time to talk about what on the Ballot

[bryjcom]

I think you misunderstood what I was saying, judging by how you quoted me. I'm not advocating for anything that the chicoms are doing

No, they don't have to worry about GMO ingredients in their food when they're inserting melamine into the food products to fake out the tests for protein content or using cardboard in place of meat in their char siu bao (sweet roast pork buns). The Chicoms are the last people on the planet we should be emulating when it comes to food safety.

Why Dont you grow and kill your own food if you are that worried about it. Or find a local farmer who will sell to you. A .gov label doesn't mean shit. His many things out there do you see with the " this product contains something known to cause cancer in the state of California"...yet...you still buy it or use it because it is on everything and you are numb to it.

If you believe a label will tell you the truth, I am selling acreage on mars for a great price.

I'm well aware of what it says, I'm just making sure you understand nothing will change but there will be a label on everything but organic foods. If you are eating anything with corn or soy in it, you are eating gmo's, most corn and soy is because it's the safest way to raise corn and soybeans, while having yields that will feed the world.

I commend you for wanting to know what you eat. I'll assume you buy local and direct from farmers or grow your own as much as possible. Ask the farmers who grow your food their thoughts. Keep in mind, I raise primarily natural pigs, and have test fed some non-gmo feed, because some people will pay insane prices for something that is the same protein and taste and safety as conventional fed pigs...

"And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig"."

I generally vote no on all ballot initiatives and constitutional amendments on principle. We have a duly elected legislature to pass laws. I think it should be very difficult to get these things on the ballot.

That said, I am leaning towards voting YES on 68 for this reason: my wife and I like to gamble and have been going to Black Hawk just about every week for many years. A lot of people including us feel like the BH casinos have been reducing their payouts these past few years. A lot of people feel like it is getting harder and harder to win up there. I think they need more competition in order to keep them on the right path. Competition will hopefully stop the BH casinos from gouging their customers. That's just my personal opinion.

I voted for the first amendment to change Colorado casinos, despite my much smarter friend using this same argument about changing the constitution. I voted for it for the same reason as above.

Makes perfect sense.

I liked you before you were cool and wise Jim.

I remember when the Blackhawk, cc and cripple creek gambling started. Original laws had all kinds of stuff that is gone today. $5 max. Slots, poker and blackjack only. No buildings over 3 stories. Building must comply with the historic mining look. No free booze. Look where we are today. Sell the voters on the idea then change shit as it goes along. Not saying it's good or bad, just saying if it goes through then in 10 years it will be much different. Prob have slots in 7-11 stores.

As long as the .gov gets its cut we can have dope and gambling. I'm just waiting for them to legalize hookers and blow.
