No one ever knows they have meth in their pocket... The meth fairy puts it there.

Is that an AR15 in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?

Holy shit. You haven't posted in 87 months and when you do it's a dupe
|

It wasn't my intent to drill that third hole, someone else did and gave it to me.
Who? No idea. |

It is a good decision.
Strict liability possession crimes are ridiculous, and felony strict liability is an anathema to the US Constitution. When it comes to drug possession crimes, the mens rea is knowingly in forty-eight states. Well, forty-nine now. |

Should be no such thing as “felony drug possession” to begin with.
|

I look at the potential for abuse. Like possession of kiddie porn. One minute of access to your computer and they can destroy your life, and there is nothing you can do about it.

Gotta admit, from a constitutional perspective, I don't disagree.
|
|
I swear, our State.
We need to pass a Bill that in order to hold any State, City, County Gov. Office, you need to pass an IQ Test and must be above 135. Beavis and Buttheads everywhere, especially the voters. |
|
Good, Drugs should be legal. The war on drugs has taken more of our freedoms than anything else.

Quoted: Is this where you tell us because it is about freedom. View Quote Yes it is. You live your life (or overdose and die, as the case may be) as you see fit, just don’t let your actions impede on my ability to live mine. Added Bonus: Billions saved in the failed war on drugs, abolish a federal agency (DEA), space in overcrowded jails for actual criminals, and Mexican cartels lose incentive to bring their shit across the border. |

Quoted: Should be no such thing as "felony drug possession" to begin with. View Quote I don't have a problem with locking up criminals who are committing crimes under the influence or stealing stuff to support their habit, but locking someone up just because they have a chemical substance in their possession seems ludicrous to me. |

Good, good thing about criminals is they keep giving you chances to bust them.

1. GD: "fucking liberals are letting thugs out of prison who are committing more crime, and not prosecuting criminals! They're destroying our country! Communist scum is causing the decline of western civilization!"
2. {Court issues rulings decriminalizing deviant behavior and restricting police ability to investigate and solve crimes} 3. GD: Hooray! Fewer laws and less police power = freedom! Hooray! 4. {Crime increases and societal decline accelerates} 5. Go to line 1 above |

There were many times that following an arrest and finding dope in someone's pocket, the arrested person would say something like "What is that, where did that come from? I don't now whose pants these are, I just put them on after the party last night, it isn't my dope".
However in all the years of taking people to jail, I never once heard anyone say anything similar when I pulled a large wad of cash out of their pocket. The dope was never theirs, but the money was always theirs..funny how that worked. |

Quoted: I am loading one of the last loads out today from Wa to ID, we are outpacing the Kali's 4 to 1 in move in ratio currently. View Quote I hate to break it to you, but it's getting a lot worse around here too (Idaho). I'm always looking for an exit...I tend to believe Wyoming is safe because the cold and the wind will keep communists away. Idaho has become a fucking beacon for commies to flock to. It's absolutely terrible. |

I am 100% in favor of anything that minimizes the power of the government to imprison a person for a victimless crime.
Thought experiment...lets say i go out and buy 100 kilos of coke. I bring it home and put it in a box, and stick it on a shelf. I am hurting no one. It is hurting no one. There are no victims. Why the hell should that be a crime? Simpy having physical control of something isnt a threat to anyone. Its not denying anyone else of their ability to enjoy liberty. The government really ought to stay the fuck out of what happens behind closed doors among consenting adults. |

Quoted: Bingo. Fuck people who want to use government power to criminalize the ownership of things - whether guns, drugs, books or whatever Big Brother decides you shouldn’t be allowed to own. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Should be no such thing as “felony drug possession” to begin with. Bingo. Fuck people who want to use government power to criminalize the ownership of things - whether guns, drugs, books or whatever Big Brother decides you shouldn’t be allowed to own. Of course, you do know that this decision is tailored narrowly to apply strictly to drug possession & nothing else, right? This is even stated explicitly in the decision. So, possessing certain classes of icky guns - they're all icky- s still fair game for mala prohibita legislation, as far as this court is concerned. |

Their state, their rules. Can they prohibit Narcan usage while they're at it? That combo might be the magic ticket to clean up Seattle.
