| > What will this person have stolen? To whom will it belong? Someone will have to claim to be the victim. Property from a collection of property owners who -just like much of the Dothan police department and parts of the DA's office and who knows who else- believe in the ongoing quest to target, harass, and jail a disfavored group of people? I mean, have you personally known a rabid dyed-in-the-wool racist? I've known many. Several of whom would -if they had the means- jump at the chance to participate in such a scheme. > We need to repeal laws against every one of those offenses... We need to repeal laws that make illegal and/or unsafe possession of a firearm, trespassing, parole violations, and traffic violations illegal because... such laws could be used to disproportionately target a particular class of people?! That's definitely throwing the baby out along with the bathwater. Look. Your continued assertion that the biggest problem here is nuts-as-shit drug laws, and this would have never had happened if it wasn't for them is (deliberately?) obscuring the real problem. What's the real problem? * For roughly twenty years, evil people in positions of power successfully harassed, jailed, and -effectively- stole money and property from targeted members of a disfavored class of people. * These evil people occupied positions of power in both the police force and the judicial system. These evil people used their influence and power to:
* Quash objections to their ongoing conspiracy.* Terminate an official police investigation into their conspiracy -long after it turned up hard evidence regarding the nature and scope of the conspiracy- * Promote those who furthered the goals of the conspiracy to higher office (including State Director of Homeland Security!) * Demote or remove from positions of power those who attempted to dismantle or shut down the conspiracy I get that you don't like drug laws in this country. There's a much bigger and much more important story here. |
