A 72-year-old woman is one of three members of a Green Cove Springs family now in jail, accused of selling marijuana.

Police said that undercover officers bought marijuana at the home on four separate occasions prior to issuing a search warrant. When officers entered the home, the elder Layfield was found sitting in a living room with several bags of marijuana.
"It's unusual to find someone her age selling pot, but she's not the first and probably won't be the last," said Lt. Larry Thompson, who heads up the Clay County Drug Task Force, which co-ordinates the efforts of the sheriff's office, the Green Cove Springs and Orange Park police departments.
All three suspects were charged with possession, sale and delivery of marijuana over 20 grams, a felony with penalties of up to five years in jail upon conviction.
Elnora Layfield has two prior drug-related charges.
"Maybe a little jail time will send a stronger message to her -- because probation isn't working," Thompson said.
You're the schizophrenic idiot savant of debating. You always win, but unfortunately, you always lose too.
WOW! times have changed!
I will take that as a lame attempt at humor for lack of an answer, to my inquiry that you are just fine with a junkie("not bothering anybody", sheesh that sounds like the Seinfeld line, "although there is nothing wrong with that") being on the street and doing his/her business.
I'm perfectly willing to debate my own points, but have neither the desire, nor the intellectual disconnect, to defend yours.
Why don't you think it is fine? How does it affect you?
Neither do I, I want 100%.
Well let's see. You've been a member for less than one month, you stand in opposition to the 2nd Amendment...that's a solid case.
Why don't you think it is fine? How does it affect you?(Hard Case)
Keep on posting Hard Case, keep on posting. You bring the Libertarian case out into the sunshine.
Do you really believe this? Haven't you seen "Reefer Madness?" That vile weed, one of nature's mistakes, is destroying countless lives across the nation! It must be stamped out now, before our entire culture rots from the inside out! Busting this insidious old biddy is a good first step, but there's a long way to go before we win this war. We cannot give up the fight, no matter the cost in money or lives — long live the War on Drugs!!!
What happened is that you took the law at face value because that is what the governemnt prsented to you. You failed to question the true value of the law. If you really think about it, they have outlawed a plant that has been around longer than any government has. Does this seem a reasonable law?
As far as you being scared of guns, that sounds like a personal problem.
Well if you want to toss around political affiliations then:
Answered, or should I say unanswered, like a typical right-wing authoritarian. You seem offended by everyone who is not like you. That too is typical. Don't think anyone else but you is capable of living their own life?
