When Pigs Fly

A Collection of the not-impossible, but highly improbable sent in by Radio Free Exile visitors. Why? Why the fuck not?




When pigs fly we'll have a black, female president who insures education for all Americans as well as a balanced budget and decent health care regardless of cost , as I truly believe this will help employment and the GNP to raise up and make America the #1 country in the world again .

Best of all she'll be a Republican just to prove it can be done!

~ Nathan Hall


When Pigs Fly, Preachers will work for free, and actually have something meaningful to say. Politicians will all go out of business. And the rest of us will stop falling for whatever they have to say.

~ Honest John


When pigs fly the prohibition on Marijuana will end. We'll see it growing in every yard. Folks will be a little more laid back, less stressed, and creating less stress for each other. People will be more creative. And we'll stop turning users into criminals.

~ Leeta Warren

When pigs fly, they won't be called bacon or sausage or ham. Pigs will be treated like your favorite pet and allowed to live happy as pigs in mudd so to speak. When pigs fly they won't be electrocuted into near unconsciousness, hung up by their heels and then have their throats cut in an assembly line, trembling in fear and horror as they see one after another of their brothers and sisters die in line in front of them. When pigs fly it won't be because they're on their way to heaven in droves, it will be because they're so happy to be considered sentient beings and not "live" stock that they can't help themselves.

~ Carlye Archibeque

When pigs fly high school students will wake up and notice the world. My peers will see that they have a chance to change the world and will take it. Instead of spending weekends drunk and fighting over members of the opposite sex they will discover literature and nature. The arts will be appreciated. When pigs fly they will be happy because students care about them, not just about themselves.

When pigs fly there'll be no homeless in the richest, most powerful country in the world; single mothers will be honored for their hard choices, and politicians will be elected based on their empathy.

When Pigs Fly, The Drug War will end (though considering recent developments in genetic engineering, pigs will probably be soaring majestically over Washington for many years before the lawmakers there allow the lawful purchase of a fattie).

The Drug War is not a war on drugs. It is a War on people. It is a War on the terribly sick, who get a little relief from a plant that was, until 1938, legal, useful, and abundant. On the young, who look at their parents various haphazard self-medications and rightly wonder what the difference is between their folks lawful intoxicants and their own unlawful ones. On revelers, whose petty indulgences are turned into major crimes. On addicts, who, as a consequence of the hysteria whipped up by Drug War Propaganda, are so stigmatized that even when they openly confront their problems, they jeopardize their livelihoods and invite unrelenting microscopic scrutiny, suspicion and judgment from all quarters.

Drug Prohibition has been the law of the land now for a little less than a century. Many, many billions of dollars have been spent saving us from the scourge of illegal narcotics. For all the effort and expenditure, however, they are cheaper and more available than they have ever been. Billions and billions have been spent for nothing. Absolutely nothing. A tragic waste in itself, it is multiplied a trillion fold when the terrible toll in human misery is considered. How many have rotted in cells for decades for holding a joint How many parents torn from their children?? How many children made orphans? How many lives thrown into
chaos by mistaken drug test results?? How many junkies have died because the law says a person calling for help for someone overdosing might be subject to arrest?

Worse still, every penny spent on enforcing our nation's drug laws has the effect of increasing the cost of drugs and making the criminal organizations that provide them richer and more powerful. Does it make sense to keep enforcing laws that make criminals richer and more powerful while making millions of ordinary people suffer needlessly at the same time?

When it becomes clear that a law is creating more suffering than it is abating, then the time has come for reconsideration and reform of that law. The toll in human misery that might come from the relaxation of Drug Laws could not possibly be any greater than the current cost of keeping them illegal. A century of Drug Policy failure is enough. It is time to bring light, reason and compassion to the question of Drugs in our society. There has got to be a better way.

Children will again find literature, poetry and plays fascinating and mysterious. Singles will come together effortlessly, without being all conflicted and afraid of intimacy and find true luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv. "Politically Incorrect" will be put back on the air and no one will be afraid to say their opinions, wacky or otherwise, out loud without fear of retribution or cancellation. We will have free, unfixed elections. Regular citizens will be able to influence the U.S. government by voting. Salespeople will know their stock and care about delivering service. Working class people in America will have a living wage and manufacturing jobs will return. Smart, educated people won't have to scramble for temp jobs. The U.S. will have an industrial base instead of becoming a third world country. Virtuous people will be honored. Money, youth and sex won't be all that is worshiped, revered and sought after. It won't be great cause of concern to put on a few pounds. All governments will act as if every person on the globe was an important being to respect and care for. I'll find that sweet smart funny second husband and I will always be able to find my keys. That's all for the moment.
