First hoco judges release burglars on bail, now they let this guy finish his education before serving only 90 days. That should be part of his punishment, not being able to graduate on time. It's his own fault he put his education & career in jeopardy, allowing him to finish is ridiculous. It's no wonder criminals come to Howard county to commit crimes

This is what is wrong with our judicial system and left-leaning politicians. The guilty are not treated as if they're guilty: they're often given a slap on the wrist and a free ride. Instead, the law-abiding are often required to pay for the damages incurred by the criminals and treated, instead, as if THEY are guilty! This individual should go straight to jail.

Our nation was founded upon freedom of the individual. Each of our citizens was guaranteed the right to the pursuit of happiness...so long as he brings no harm to his fellow citizens or their property.

When did this change?

I spent 5 years in Federal Prison for a marijuana offense.
And I am as harmless as a Beagle puppy.

I wrote about the escapades that led to my 'extended vacation'... the book:
Shoulda Robbed a Bank

I would be honored by your review.

And, I wish Mr. Unni nothing but the very best.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...the house was being ransacked, the cattle were being rustled, and Granma was being raped by the cowboys....

Law enforcement needs to re-direct its focus on crime...to those that are REAL crimes.

This illustrates the stupidity of our drug laws. For over 40 years, we've been locking up millions of people for growing, buying or selling a largely benign plant that hundreds of millions have used (including our president, speaker of the house, a majority of congressmen, a hefty percentage of lawyers and judges and at least two sitting US Supreme Court justices) without harm other than that flowing from its illegality. End this insane drug war already and stop ruining peoples' lives because of a poorly reasoned notion that the criminal law should be used to express the dated moral beliefs of a prudent minority instead of to protect citizens from actual harm.

90 days in jail for growing a bunch of benign plants? Great job Howard County police. You've kept us safe from a man getting high!! Civilization itself would fall if people were allowed to decide for themselves what recreational products to consume. People must be protected from exercising their freedoms and the criminal law is the best way to accomplish that goal. Next, let's get those women back into the kitchens where they belong!

Stay classy Laurel
