hi i really like the cartoons for the humor and the sense that they make esspecially the first one. yeah i hate to say it but my life has really been put in shambles as a result of being arrested for marijuana. i got my first felony charge when i was growing a seven inch plant with two sets of leaves at the top in a closet in my house.i was growing it myself to make sure it was completly safe for personal use. when i was away from home one day working my landlord decided to go inside my house and search through my belongings. he finds a my plant and calls the police. when i return home from a good hatd days work i find about four police officials with a special investigations unit in my yard. apparently in the state of north carolina landlords can legally waltz in to your house without your conseant wnvr they plz when i always was under the impression it was against the law but in any event its not and im thrown in jail with a maintaining a medium for the manufacture of marijuana FELONY. when i went to court i plead to a deal of completing a exstensive drug court program that was a full time time job for a year and if i successfully completed the program my charges would all be dismissed. so i say fair enough and although the program was torture and hell i put up with it, did well and completed it after a year well when i finished everyone clapped and they gave me a certifacate but didnt drop tne charges in fact the felony remains on my record to this day and will for the rest of my life. eversince this getting a job and feeling human has been a challenge. this is a very sincere and true story….

I think maybe the best way to avoid getting fined for drugs it to maybe just not use or have them….

Amen to post 63. My father was a 30 year Houston police officer and for most of those years an abusive alcoholic and or addicted to perscription drugs. The latter of which has put him in the hospital twice in the last three months and will kill him soon. I can’t tell you how many times he got off for DUI (drugs or alcohol) because he “used” to be a cop. Last time he missed the turn on his way home and ended up in a city 60 miles Southwest of Houston. The police there put him up in a Holiday Inn to sleep it off till morning.

Anybody know the annual budget of the DEA? How much do we pay Wachenhut to store our black guys? And what would we do with them if we released all the non-violent ‘possession’ offenders? In other words the crime of being black and poor.
