Don't use any illicit drugs of any kind and, not being able to find any criminal substances in your system, you could successfully argue that you were "framed".
Of course, if you routinely use the crap...
When the US government starts executing flower possessors then
it will no longer be the United States of America, but Hell.
GOD MADE HERB
GOD SAW THAT IT WAS GOOD
GOD GAVE IT TO MAN
Genesis 1:11
Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so.
Genesis 1:12
And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:29
And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.
Hell is that special place where all those wills adverse to the will of God reside.
LOL. We used to have a lot more posters like that before Jim cleaned house. Remember DemiDolt?
I'm fairly certain this has nothing to do with this thread, but...what the hey. |
Alabama:
"The report points out that drug-related offenses made up 3,202, or 31 percent, of the 10,267 prison admissions in 2004 nearly twice the number of robbery, murder, rape and manslaughter entries combined, based on figures by the Alabama Sentencing Commission...
About 60 percent of Alabama's inmates are black, though blacks represent only 26 percent of the state population."

There ought to be a law against quoting scripture in a manner that doesn't please King of the Universe wideawake.
No, I am saying that where statistically drug use is relatively equally
distributed among the races prosecution is not. Though many other
factors play a role, like the cultural differences which drive those of
lesser means into public spaces more often, they don't excuse the
blindness of justice to its misuse.
Bear in mind this sacred principle, that
though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail,
that will to be rightful must be reasonable;
that the minority possess their equal rights,
which equal law must protect,
and to violate would be oppression."--Thomas Jefferson
What did the insane comments from PacMacxian have to do with Scripture? Is his devotion to random irrelevances contagious?
No one is in prison for ingesting drugs. People are in prison for possessing significant amounts of drugs or selling drugs to other people.
Drug use may be an evenly distributed activity, but drugdealing isn't.
"Drug use may be an evenly distributed activity, but drugdealing isn't."
Evidence? I certainly don't believe that one bit.
Is there a conspiracy by white police to encourage young black men to assault people or hold up liquor stores?
How do these white police hide this conspiracy from their black partners and coworkers?
What is your source?
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Benjamin Franklin
War on Drugs = insanity
The FBI stats are all the evidence any sane person needs. But that's all just a grand conspiracy, right?
Just like 9/11 and AIDS.
There are a number of arguments to be made about US drug laws. Arguing that they are part of a deliberate racist conspiracy is the weakest.
Pax is anything but insane.
"There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
For example, a person may commit a domestic assault while high on drugs but the victim refuses to press charges. The city attorney agrees to a plea bargain on the drug charges to avoid a court battle which may go either way due to the lack of a key witness. It saves the state/city money and gives the person the opportunity to get clean.
Most of the people sentenced for drugs are not first time offenders and have other charges. Many are habitual offenders who support their habit by burglary, shop lifting, and robbery. Getting them off the street reduces overall crime.
So you buy into the thesis that US drug laws are a deliberately planned racist conspiracy? Is that what you're saying?
according to QuotesOnLine.com it was Albert Einstein who said that.
