Kentucky passes HB 463 and Texas passes one to Willie. - Lexington courts | Examiner.com

You have trouble reading, don't you? This comment has already been removed as in violation of terms. You are copying and pasting your trolls, how uncreative.

That's funny. You pretended to review an article written by MonkeyFilms earlier today like you had read it. The funny part is that the article describes exactly the history of the statement you misquoted. Thus, proving that you not only did not read the article you pretended to read before falsely attacking it but that you are a troll.

You seem to have an obsession with trolling MonkeyFilms. What is the site's policy on that? It does nothing to further debate and is rather annoying.

So, I read his bio and that's not at all what it says when not taken out of context. I also read the article he wrote on Examiner explaining what he says in his bio. He has been jailed and attempts made on his life for trying to expose prostitution links to local police. Additionally, a woman was murdered for trying to expose this story and he stuck his neck out to seek justice against the officers that murdered her.

Nowhere, not even in the bio, does it state that he ever hired prostitutes. He has been willing to defend one at the risk of his own life. That's admirable. What's your problem with this author? It's obviously personal.

You're thinking of the Deep South. Kentucky has only one Clan organization and the membership is extremely small.

baby steps... but in the right direction indeed.

You know,...it is. Yes it is. And we can. Kewl. +^d to you,...us,...all of us.

Regulate it like alcohol for sure. Seattle currently has a bill on the table that the Seattle Times came out in support of that would dispense cannabis in state liquor stores and regulate it much like we already do with alcohol. My only concern is testing for current intoxication. This works for alcohol, but not with pot. UA's can pick up and show you are dirty 30 days or more after the last use. They need a better way for testing otherwise you effectively can't drive for a month after your last use without risking a DUI or Metabolite charge. This is the primary problem I see as far as legalization goes...

how do they treat/test pharmaceuticals like Valium, Xanax, Klonopin, Seroquel? even with a 'Rx' they impair driving as does over the counter meds like Benadryl.

Well said Schnookums!

My only concern would be that the pot would be irradiated, full of pesticides and maybe even GM before it was over. Not to mention what chemicals would be added by the agri-businesses that produce, especially the low cost version. If you wanted good quality, it would be extremely costly, like fine wine and liquor. So then, the option is to buy organic/local. Isn't that what we already do now? Would there be "revenuers" like in moonshiner days. People that want to grow their own being jailed for tax evasion?

Some states it is A,B,C, other states it is 1,2,3,. Depends what state or commonwelth you live in.

Interesting... thanks.

On Planet Utah, they seem to do just about everything differently, plus we have the #2 most polluted city in the nation! Great wild places though...

Kentucky is a commonwealth state. It is not a mistake in the article, we use letters here.

In my distribution case in 2000, I received a discovery report clearly stating that the evidence in the Utah State Crime Lab was recorded as "1.3 grams of crushed marijuana", interestingly enough, when I showed up for my initial hearing, the detective on the case presented the judge with a report claiming the evidence was "6.0 grams of marijuana", conveniently making my case look a degree more severe. I was also ordered to pay $50 restitution for the "evidence", even though I know for a fact it was only $10 for a half eight of brick weed. They also did not record the wired transaction. To get around it, they had three officers listen in, the word of three officers takes precedent over actual audio recordings, but actually conveniently leaves it up to the officers to say what ever they want to about what they heard...

Luckily due to the fact this was a first offense and I presented numerous good character references from known members of the community, I "only" did 2 months in jail, 6 months (out of 3 max years) of probation, completed drug counseling (before getting out of jail), and paid $1050 in fines. Charge was a 2nd degree felony dist (school zone), plead to a 3rd degree, later reduced to a class A misd via 402 motion. Will be expunged entirely this year.

Our criminal justice system is broken and tampered with constantly, especially when it comes to drug law. I was no criminal, I was a POW forced to live with hardcore meth addicts, rapists and murderers. That isn't justice...

The new laws and prosecutorial reform will eliminate that type of behavior, I hope. What you talk about is common in every courtroom in America. They will just turn their devious ways towards other "criminals".

Wow, that's sad but happens all the time.

Yes, and we claim to be the most civilized in America. Imagine that?

Must be nice right?

I'm a singer/song writer and I would sing every song I've written for the judge.

I think I'd even try to yodel, myself. The only thing I wouldn't do is a duet with Sarah Palin. I'd rather do jail time.

With some judges singing a duet with Palin might get you jail time. :)

Hell man,....I would do the Judges unwed homely daughter in front of bright lights, jeering crowds, and cameras to get my sentence reduced,....but, uhm,....I suppose singing might be embarrassing and socially painful.
