The indiscriminate use of bombs by the US, usually outside a declared war
situation, for wanton destruction, for no military objectives, whose
targets and victims are civilian populations, or what we now call
"collateral damage."

US Use of Chemical & Biological Weapons

chemical and biological weapons, and has either used or tested (without
informing the civilian populations) these weapons in the following
locations abroad:

Canada (1953)
China and Korea (1950-53)

And the US has encouraged the use of such weapons, and provided the
technology to develop such weapons in various nations abroad, including:

Egypt
South Africa
Iraq

US Political and Military Interventions since 1945
The US has launched a series of military and political interventions since
1945, often to install puppet regimes, or alternatively to engage in
political actions such as smear campaigns, sponsoring or targeting
opposition political groups (depending on how they served US interests),
undermining political parties, sabotage and terror campaigns, and so forth.

US Perversions of Foreign Elections
The US has specifically intervened to rig or distort the outcome of foreign
elections, and sometimes engineered sham "demonstration" elections to ward
off accusations of government repression in allied nations in the US sphere
of influence. These sham elections have often installed or maintained in
power repressive dictators who have victimized their populations. Such
practices have occurred in nations such as:

Philippines (1950s)
Italy (1948-1970s)
Lebanon (1950s)
Indonesia (1955)
Vietnam (1955)
Guyana (1953-64)
Japan (1958-1970s)
Nepal (1959)
Laos (1960)

US Versus World at the United Nations
The US has repeatedly acted to undermine peace and human rights initiatives
at the United Nations, routinely voting against hundreds of UN resolutions
and treaties. The US easily has the worst record of any nation on not
supporting UN treaties. In almost all of its hundreds of "no" votes, the US
was the "sole" nation to vote no (among the 100-130 nations that usually
vote), and among only 1 or 2 other nations voting no the rest of the time.

initiatives
Refused to renew the Antiballistic Missile Treaty
Refused to sign the Kyoto Treaty on global warming

MILLIONS. Millions of us, brother... to the point where it's become a point of societal control; ever noticed how many things you can't do with a felony record?

I'm a PROUD FELON. Why would that be something to be proud of?! Because I earned it by growing a harmless medicinal plant in my own basement, harming exactly no one.

It's now become a battle scar and a badge of honor; It says that that I've been fighting for my civil rights for over twenty five years. I don't see very many other activists with felony records for their trouble.

Therefore, I've been marginalized from many jobs that I would have excelled at. Careers with government unexplored. Fuck, I can't even get an MMED employee badge in Colorado, according to people I've spoken to on the subject. I'll apply anyway and see what happens.

The point is that society has been shitcanning people, denying them opportunity- and in the process shortchanging itself. The millions like me won't perform to their full potential and that costs everyone. Why?

Because a very few, very powerful and wealthy people have stolen our democracy and they mean to keep control of it no matter what the cost- as long as those costs are borne by others.
It wasn't the wealthy who started a war on pot l. It was a racist self promoting asshole named Anslinger

I'm proud I squandered many opportunities in life, just so I could grow dope?
Impressive, even for you; unless you're also a liar about it, you're a grower too. I didn't have the opportunities of a wealthy or even caring family, so I did it on my own; I grew weed to pay for my college education. Shit, even the judge was impressed...

Soooooo... Nice job missing the point! WHICH IS, just to be clear; THAT GROWING A HARMLESS PLANT ISN'T A CRIME! Persecuting those who do it IS!

Are you even less intelligent than @Uncle Buck says you are?

Another calls on their keeper ignored user to help, lol.

But seriously, whether a law is just or not, breaking it knowing they are going to fuck you and your entire life, is pretty fucking stupid. I grow, but Ive had a card for years.

But some people like to gamble, and we now know how that worked out for you.

i dunno man canada may have you beat on the whole native thing we fed them alive to hungry dogs....o_O , and were still fucking colonizing the shit out of them and taking away their rights and its 2015.

oh dont forget the whole residential school business that was only stopped in 1996...
I Ask my self why should they get any different treatment then my self i mean they are tax exempt, have dual citizen ship, poach all year round, and ask for hand outs non stop they cry they been wronged see the problem is PAramount pictures had it all wrong when they made cowboy and indian movies
One thing i give americans credit for is when the natives blocked or cause havoc tey bring in the national guard give them deadline to leave or they slaughter them way it really should be up here in Canada quebec incident comes to mind where they shot n killed a cop if this happened in usa they be all killed end of story
But the moral of the story is they deserve nothing they were not the first to be on this land if you want to get technical
For a long time, it's been generally accepted by most archeologists that the first humans in North America were people who walked across a land-bridge from Siberia to Alaska about 15,000 years ago. This was at a time of lower sea levels during the last ice age. They made their way down the continent from North to South through an ice-free corridor east of the Rocky Mountains. The descendants of those first people left behind some of the oldest artifacts found in North America - distinct stone tools and spear points from 13,000 years ago. They're known as the Clovis culture, and they are considered to be the ancestors of all the indigenous peoples living in North and South America today.

But there's another theory that challenges the accepted archeological evidence: a theory that proposes the idea that Stone Age Europeans, known as Solutreans, paddled across the North Atlantic to North America, pre-dating Clovis by thousands of years. The proponents of this theory argue that the Salutreans actually gave rise to the Clovis culture
