Can you imagine? That’s like saying a rabbi knows more about Judaism than an SS officer!

Hey Barn, I have this boil that I need you to take a look at…..

And don’t forget that many of these drug convictions rescind ones’ right to vote. So you get a smaller and smaller group of people getting to vote on issue that affect more and more people.

And for many people that do end up committing real crimes, it was their drug arrests and incarceration that put them on their criminal path. Do a little jail time for non-violent drug offenses and gone are all sorts of job and business opportunities. Not to mention, prisons seem to function more as schools for criminal training rather than places for reform. So it’s not a wonder that some people who do real jail time wind up committing real crimes down the road.

Of course, that just makes more work for the police and the crim justice apparatus.

The drug war gins up business for the crim admin folks, like nails thrown in the street by the owner of a tire store. The drum beat of immorality continues….

As public servants? They have no right to care. But as private citizens, they have EVERY right to make their voice heard.

… But then they showed up attempting to represent the police and trying to use it to their advantage. And that’s where they effed up. They think their private concerns have anything to do with their job, but they have no idea that they should be mutually exclusive.

Not only do they know the “correct” way to treat our patients, they also can identify diverters and others, who would ruin it for the real pain patients, better than us. The cops think they know better than us, who really needs the medicine. They consider that reason enough, to put us in jail, or ruin our careers!

That is one arrogant SOB! What makes him think he knows better than doctors. Anyone with any common sense knows that pills for nausea don’t usually work. The patient immediately throws them up. But, he is just a cop. He is, obviously, not smart, or wise, enough to realize that! He certainly is not smart enough to be my, or any body else’s, doctor! So why in the hell should he be saying what he said! My blood is boiling!

To go one step farther, the vast majority of police depts would go back to being Barney-Fife-esque because there are very few crimes going on. And that’s not acceptable. We need tanks to play with.

I now pray every day that the state doesn’t realize they could print up $2 trillion and give all to cops to beat us over the head every day. I believe that would be the dream state for more than a few fellow Americans.

In a just country, that is.

(But seriously, the idea that anyone should care more about the cops in this situation is laughable.)
