Another one to file under Don't Talk to the Cops: Even if You're A Victim

Uh, he did. But he wasn't involved in the case...

Is this really that hard people? I didn't realize I was on a forum for the mentally challenged.
I never thought your brother was involved ... He told you about an idiot, that is all.
 
I'm saying Michael is an idiot.

OK, but does that justify the police arresting him for having some marijuana? Sure, he's an idiot... for talking to the police so they could find his stash. Any intelligent person would either sweat the $125 and pot or choose their words more carefully.
 
It was NOT my brother! My brother TOLD me about it.

Does ANYONE READ anymore?

I didn't mean your brother literally... I just mean.. you know.. your bro from the story.

Btw, the article didn't mention a felony. Where did you get that bit from? Curious..
 
Lifestyle differences, MWMMI.
Laws have changed ... People, not so much.

First off what the heck is MWMMI?

You're right, laws have changed, most of them unconstitutional. I am reminded of a quote in Oliver Twist-- “If the law supposes that,” said Mr. Bumble,… “the law is a ass—a idiot. If that’s the eye of the law, the law is a bachelor; and the worst I wish the law is that his eye may be opened by experience—by experience.”

Just remember--the names have changed but the game remains the same.

Oh and I do not hide under my bed because there is police on the streets--but I know what the founders meant when they warned about standing armies.

“Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. the supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States.”
~Noah Webster

“A standing army is one of the greatest mischief that can possibly happen”
~James Madison

“Keep within the requisite limits a standing military force, always remembering that an armed and trained militia is the firmest bulwark of republics - that without standing armies their liberty can never be in danger, nor with large ones safe”
~James Madison


And we know the police are the protectors of the Banksters!

“Banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies.”
~Thomas Jefferson

My bad... I'm not sure if it was a felony, but $25,000 bail sure is a lot.
 
Cops are the most dangerous of criminals. They are often violent and know that they can get away with almost anything. There are almost no circumstances in which calling/talking to the police is a good idea.

I'm not saying it is justified ... I don't agree with current laws on that subject.
But people are allowed to make poor decisions, and Michael did just that.

And Constitutional or not, they are what they are, UNTIL changed/revoked.

Isn't that why most of us are here ... Looking to accelerate the process via a Ron Paul Presidency ... YES ?

IMO, about 80% of our current laws should be returned to the States and/or revoked in their entirety.

Michael wasn't the one making poor decisions, it was the police for arresting a peaceful person.

The only way an unconstitutional law will go away is if the people know it is unconstitutional and stand up against it and resist it. The problem is, most American's (including cops) have been deliberately dumbed down. Those whom have (in the past) resisted an unconstitutional law(s) get demonized and painted as wacko's, nut-jobs, conspiracy theorists, totally insane, unAmerican, cop-haters and Terrorists.

I am here, not to accelerate Dr. Paul into a Presidency as much as I am here to get with like-minded people who love liberty and cherish freedom. To band together to help Dr. Paul get his message of liberty out to those who have been asleep. That is where I put my money where my mouth is--I have supported Dr. Paul for over twenty years and will continue to throw my FRN's his way or anyone else with the message of Freedom and Liberty.
 
NO ... I've been ignoring your version of reality ;)

I'm 50 and have yet to experience the things some claim I should cower in a corner and be afraid of.
Call it common sense ... I do !!!

IN all fairness, so did my Dad. He's almost 70, but he ended up in jail one night for something that the peace officers we knew as kids would have scoffed about. The mentality og law enforcement has changed dramatically over the last generation. It is definitely us against them.

As for the original story, i knew guys who found themselves in similar situations, and this is going back 20 years. They didn't call the cops, because when you're in the business, you don't do anything that puts you on the radar.

Is it a positive that the guy was in the business? I have a scale and I don't sell drugs. He could just be using it to weigh what his dealer gave him.
