Mr. President, these needless deaths could have been avoided if only you would stop laughing at people who advise you to embrace the idea of legalization.
SULLIVAN CITY – A 17-year-old boy is the only survivor of a police chase that ended in a rollover crash in Sullivan City. Police say the driver of a car refused to stop and the chase was on. They went down the expressway until the driver lost control and crashed near Showers Road.
The car rolled over several times killing the driver, 21-year-old Josh Pena, and a passenger, 18-year-old Pedro Trevino. There’s no word on the condition of the third passenger taken to the hospital. Police found 14 pounds of marijuana in the car.
I think it’s pretty obvious; if Marijuana were legal, these boys would still be alive.
How many more people will the Government kill, murder, execute, and cage (on purpose or accident) before the people of this country awaken to the war the against them and fight back? In case you weren’t aware, the government is at war with the citizens of the United States and these are two more casualties.
[I love this post from Dudemaster, but I can just hear the propaganda-soaked Joe Q. Public saying, "Well, if they didn't run from the cops, they wouldn't have wrecked their car and died." But Dudemaster is exactly right; do you think these young men would have engaged in a high-speed chase over 14 cases of wine or 14 cases of beer? Even at age 17, where his possession of wine and beer would be illegal, you can't imagine he'd have run from cops over it, can you?
Marijuana does not create crime. Prohibition creates crime. If you enacted decades-long mandatory minimum sentences for possession and sales of chocolate, this police chase and car wreck could've been over 14 pounds of chocolate bricks. -- "R"R]
That’s right… Their death has nothing to do with the legalization of Marijuana, but, rather – Their deaths has everything to do with their mentalities and actions. They don’t respect the law…
If some one would have stolen their diamonds, and then the police discovered a vehicle with their diamonds in in – Would they expect the police to chase after their stolen goods? The answer is yes…
These young kids need to learn that the law can, and does, work for them. They need to learn how to respect the laws of the lands… Their deaths could have been prevented if they understood those simple principals…
That said, I’m going to go roll me an joint… I know I the police won’t kill me over it!!! Should they stop my car, I won’t run… Because, if you understand the crime and its consequences, then you’re certiantly liable to do the time… (Or kill yourself if you think that time isn’t worth it!!! Dumb asses…. )

This is one for the reefer madness file. The evening news in the Philadelphia area reported the finding of a couple of three foot cannabis plants. The plants were uprooted before the police could stake out the area, so the local police chief was bringing in watering bottles for fingerprinting. 2 pot plants, & the police are ready to spend a fortune tracking down these desperados. What a waste of money in these hard times. This story was on the local news in Phila. today 9/15/09
