Anonymous Coward User ID: 11789259 United States 06/29/2012 03:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A 19-year-old Syrian and a 21-year-old British man were sentenced to death in the United Arab Emirates on Monday for allegedly selling marijuana to an undercover policeman. Quoting: Mordier L'eft The Briton's mother collapsed outside Criminal Court in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E., after the verdict was announced as the Syrian's mother tried to comfort her, telling her they could appeal the decision, reports Haneen Dajani at The National. The two young men were caught after an officer posing as a customer bought 20 grams (about three-quarters of an ounce) of cannabis for Dh1,500 (just over $400 American). The officer had earlier bought Dh500 ($136) worth to test it and confirm it was actually marijuana. [link to www.tokeofthetown.com] wtf would 20 grams of schwag be worth 400 usd? |

And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die. |

ExpertOfSound User ID: 1779676 United States 06/29/2012 03:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If they did that in the USA just one time, it would stop a lot of senseless drug killings. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1342995 No it wouldn't, the problem is that drugs are illegal and it raises the prices. This is how gangs make money, because if all drugs were legal (to an extent, NOT sold in stores but legal to have NOT make) the prices of drugs would be dollars an ounce instead of hundreds per ounce, the gangs would then have to work for their money like everyone else instead of get it quick and easy and they wouldn't have the funds to buy guns and take over territory either. Gang violence is caused by artificially high drug prices, if guns become illegal the same thing will happen with them, making the gangs richer, and MUCH MUCH more powerful (they will know that only cops have guns, everyone else is defenseless and easy to kill or steal from) GREAT minds talk about IDEAS AVERAGE minds talk about EVENTS SMALL minds talk about PEOPLE Racism is a crime against humanity. “A good scientist is a person in whom the childhood quality of perennial curiosity lingers on.

IWant2Believe User ID: 18004829 United States 06/29/2012 03:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here in the U.S. we are on the fast track to radically outlawing everything as well. "Too many people are only willing to defend rights that are personally important to them. It's selfish ignorance, and it's exactly why totalitarian governments are able to get away with trampling on people. Freedom does not mean freedom just for the things I think I should be able to do. Freedom is for all of us. If people will not speak up for other people's rights, there will come a day when they will lose their own." - Tony Lawrence Greed is for amateurs. Disorder, chaos, anarchy: now that's fun! I am insane. And you are my insanity. I raise my flags, don my clothes It's a revolution, I suppose We'll paint it red to fit right in. I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus This is it, the apocalypse. I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones Enough to make my systems blow. Welcome to the new age! |
