Sure.

Considering how comfortable you are with lying to make your point, you'll forgive me if I'm a bit skeptical.

Can you share me that reason? The reason I bring up German Nazis and Jews is because most Americans are not aware of anything else.

The drug war in this country is totally out of hand. I agree the laws are just ridiculous concerning drugs, but especially marijuana.

But if you went out and killed people over it, I wouldn't side with you because you'd be wrong.

I don't have any reason to lie about it.

As a convicted felon he should shoot the arresting officer or the convicting judge. They robbed him of a way to make a future livelihood.

Yes, killing is always the answer isn't it.

Fortunately for me, when it went down in 1981, the internet had not been invented so my record, mugshot and all that were not out there for all to see when they google my name. So it did not totally ruin my life. I was ablr to get out after 2 years, go to college (which you cannot do anymore if you have a drug conviction) and get a half decent job that I could not get if it happened now. In fact, you would be hard pressed to get ANY job today even with just an arrest because your mug shot and arrest record are on the internet for all to see. So in effect, your life is ruined. Even if you were not guilty. Even if the cops knew you did nothing.
