Comments on Tracking Down Those Unicorns

It's alot easier to talk your way into jail than out of........I've been in several compromising situations where a little respect for the officer in question, even though I detest the police state, saved my arse from any citation at all. plus one sk8brding ticket with 1.5 lbs in the backpack, no smartass, no running from the cops, no search incidental to arrest, no felony!

Live to toke another day

A friend of mine spent the night in jail for a joint. Cop stopped him on the street (for being loud and obnoxious), searched him, and took him away. He ultimately wasn't sentenced to any time, just a fine.

Oh, this was in Florida. Duh.

didn't the drug czar douche guy say he would buy that reporter a steak dinner? that is if he could locate something that everyone knows exists...

my baby brother is a unicorn.

I'm a unicorn! I was caught with a fat j in my pocket and spent two nights in an Austin jail. When brought before the judge I was charged with "possession of a bag with the intent to use it to contain a controlled substance." Since I thought that I would be charged with marijuana possession, this odd charge against the empty bags that I tended to carry with me seemed the more benign. And at that point all I wanted was to get the funk out of Texas. So I plead guilty with no legal consult, received time served, and continued my adventure.

Last year I immigrated to Australia and had to submit my FBI file in my application. Though I had accepted that weird empty bag charge in court, my record has a marijuana possession charge. I contacted the Austin courts, and they didn't keep my court case on file, so I'm stuck with the possession charge.

I'm a unicorn!

My favorite thing about philosophy classes in college was the constant references to/examples using unicorns. What better way to illustrate a Platonic ideal?

If there were any real justice, this administration would be in jail.

The whole drug war is a lie, why would we expect its apologist-in-chief to be anything but a big fat fucking liar?

You know, like every single member of the administration that hired him.

The drug czar is so bad he's making more people think they is unicorns than the notorious schedule 1 drug marijuana.Or black gunnion if you're Iceberg Slim.

@5 How can that be? How can you have been charged for an empty bag and then for that charge to stick when there was no record of it??? Don't the cops have to keep records?

the drug czar asswipe used some clever verbal slight of hand. The questioner referred to the large # of peole that have been arrested for simple possesion. Asswipe replied with (paraphrasing) "find a unicorn in jail" blahblahblah.

This misses the fucking point! People should not be ARRESTED for having a goddamn motherfucking joint! forget about how few actually make it to jail, people should be left alone. you know, freedom and all that shit.

Rhinos are white trash unicorns
