i'm here! the cop smelled drugs and was right. there were drugs.

swallowing drugs happens all the time and is usually the first place you look. it's evidence tampering and it's a felony in most places.

so go ahead and tell me that a little pot is no big deal. hindsight is 20/20. policing isn't pretty sometimes.

2 of the first 10 posts supporting police violence, in this case choking someone until he passed out. No big surprise.

Here is the rest of the story. This same cop has been sued for excessive force before. A few years ago he beat and kicked handcuffed man who was lying on the ground apparently for no other reason than he was angry with him. The city of Lebanon, Tennessee paid out $250,000 in punitive damages in the lawsuit. The cop is a jack booted thug.

>"so go ahead and tell me that a little pot is no big deal."

It is a LIVING substance created by G_D! As opposed to toxic enzymatic excrement!

The law causes MORE damage than the vegetable matter does! That's a FACT!

Look at one of the great things enzymatic excrement prohibition gave us------- The Kennedys!!!!!

The continued prohibition of plant matter has CREATED the horribly destructive murderous black market gangster society. LEO prohibition MAKES the problem in the first place!

I am far from an anarchist. I appreciate what LEOs do. They have to put up with some cerially degenerate scum. Pot heads are NOT scum. They are generally very peaceful G-d fearing people, who just want to live in peace.

Now crack and meth ought to be given away on the streetcorner with propane torches blazing for free! Of course the morticians would be working overtime for a couple of weeks, but the problem would soon burn itself out!

The cop choked him until he passed out. That is attempted murder. I hope he gets millions.

Not only is a little pot no big deal, we, the People, NEVER GAVE government the authority to ban ANYTHING and especially to ban things then behave like this toward the people, who are the ones with the authority. YOU who are legends in your own minds have ONLY the authority We, the People, delegate to you. Not one whit more.

One fine day one or more of you slugs are going to grab the wrong man and there WILL be BITS and it will be yours, not his. And, if the circumstances are at all similar to what happened here, I won’t mind it one bit. You are way too full of yourself, SERVANT.
