Your welcome.
I am sickened, but not exactly shocked, that this is going on in my state.
Well, for what it’s worth, I know what my little corner of the NC judicial branch will have to say about this.
LE wants to use the info to attempt to track sources of prescription drug sales on the Black Market.
boy oh boy....chronic pancreatitis....not a pretty disease...hope you’re holding on .....
when you think of the "why" behind laws, you begin to understand who's back is being scratched...
them and the unions...
we had a horrendous shooting of an older man by a cop late at night,.....I won't go into the specifics except to say that after killing this man, within the next half hour or so, there was already a union rep there talking to the cop about his "planned" vacation that was coming up....
the cop went on his vacation as planned...he was NOT required to give a statement until the following week after he had vacationed....meanwhile the family of the shot and killed man was left hanging....
no statement for over a week....
two sets of rules.....one for the cops and one for the rabble...
I am sure cops will be exempt from this pain killer list....because of "union" rules..
I believe it’s also illegal to carry your own RX outside of the container it came in.
Our Sheriff here in SE NM would probably want to do that if somebody gave him the idea. He is very popular and will probably win reelection this year, but there is an independent running on what I call the “Sheriff Mack” platform and that’s who’ll be getting my vote.
It has been said law enforcement officers are three times as likely to become a convicted felon in their lifetimes as the population at large. And that wouldn’t be counting the ones who got away with it.
They never had me fooled.
It passed and was signed in to law in 1996. I don't recall which party was in control of Congress that year </s>.
I am REALLY glad that I get my pain meds from my VA pharmacy, just down the hall from the doct0r who prescribes them for me!
Otherwise, I’d surely have a problem!

You know, years ago I was a civil war re-enactor and one Sunday coming back from an event, two friends and I stopped at a gas station in a little Mississippi town.
When we pulled up, there was a big guy there, missing a few teeth, who was whipping a dog with a busted fan belt. (And it wasn’t even his dog.) All the poor dog could do was cringe and yelp. I was driving and I pulled up to the pump. We didn’t know it but someone inside the station — not wanting to get personally involved — had called the cops, but it was Sunday and the nearest Sheriff’s car was miles away. In fact, they didn’t get there while were there. They told us. They thanked us. But they didn’t want to get involved.
We hadn’t been stopped for more than a few seconds when my buddy Chris, who was about half the size of the dog-whipper, took it all in with a glance and said, to no one in particular, “Oh, HELL NO!”
Any of you from the South, you probably know what that means. “Oh, HELL NO!”
Just three words: “Oh, HELL NO!” It was an observation. It was an announcement. It was a battle cry. And without further ado Chris launched himself across that parking lot — and he’s only about half the size of this toothless fellow — and he stripped that broken fan belt out of his hand and he commenced to whaling on the guy. Of course, the two of us were looking pretty rough from a weekend and it’s Sunday — all grizzled and dirty and dressed in funny clothes — and we go to back him up. When this fellow starts to recover — and he decides, “Hey, I’m bigger than this guy, I’m gonna beat him” — and then he sees the two of us coming up, he decides that he’s had enough and he jumped in his car and drove off.
Now this is a quintessentially Southern thing, this “Oh, HELL NO!” All right? You gotta say it just like that. Let’s practice it. “Oh, HELL NO!” The accent’s on the “HELL!”
All right?
It is indeed a uniquely AMERICAN thing. When you hear it — where I come from — you know that somebody’s gonna get beat, stabbed or shot. And the guy who takes the beating, the knife blade or the bullet undoubtedly deserves it.
“Oh, HELL NO!”
For you can push Americans only so far.

It’s inherent to the position. Giving people a position of authority over another person WILL turn them into criminals (depending on the law), or at least unethical, almost without question, given enough time. That’s why law enforcement is supposed to be county sheriffs, duly elected, and their deputies, who can then be rotated out, and not some corporate, unionized thugs. Obama is getting his army, alright, right under our noses.
nuts
don’t they have someone to go dress up in black gear for and blast to kingdom come
Agreed.
We must stop people from alleviating their pain! How dare they?
