Parents have a limited ability to determine the actions of offspring. Grandma and uncle may both be TA, but grandma may also be as good a parent as she could be. Let us judge each based on their own words. There is no need to hold grandma responsible for uncle's faults.

keeps most of the dipshits out
Perhaps, but the undocumented immigrants being rounded up do not seem to be dipshits. Dreamers, day laborers, people here for the past 20 years with no criminal history. Keeping the dipshits out is a nice idea, but our current policies are evicting people I want as neighbors.
I will give up my bell bottoms when you pull them off my cold, dead, child of the 60's butt.
I have always taken the Zen Buddhist approach: "Make me one with everything."
Reddit. When they implemented their API pricing, they could have been upfront, but instead they put words into the mouths of 3rd party developers. When the 3rd party developers posted the recordings of the conversations, Reddit doubled down instead of apologizing. At that point, I washed my hands of Reddit. People who will directly lie in the face of evidence cannot be trusted. I have not been back since.
For Americans, this is an example of a problem with 2nd amendment law. More and more people are choosing cars as their weapon, but US law has not caught up. We need to treat cars with the same respect as guns. Cars should not need registration, licensing, or insurance. Cars are armaments not transportation.
So many Americans are using cars instead of guns to kill people. We need to start treating cars like the deadly weapons they are. By that I mean, we need to stop registering cars, stop requiring people show proficiency in using cars, stop requiring insurance to use a car. It's what the founding fathers wanted when they wrote the 2nd amendment.
I remain unconvinced. fentanyl is already illegal, yet people die from it, so making it illegal is already ineffective. Instead of spending money on police, lets spend it on treatment.
Why would it matter if felons voted while imprisoned or free? We should not be incarcerating so many people that their vote has anything beyond a trivial, marginal affect. That is to say the real question is why do we convict so many people of crimes?
People already choose to buy and use fentanyl without a doctors prescription, why should they be treated as criminals? If a junkie commits crimes because they are high, that should be criminal, and if a junkie commits crimes to get more drugs, that should be criminal, but I do not see a purpose in criminalizing fentanyl for consenting adults.
