Law Enforcement

After logging off tonight I could not get the recent findings of the former Stanislaus Deputy who died in custody off of my mind.

So I went through my nightly hygine ritual and came back to my computer and logged in and re-read the Bee's article on Mr. Prescott. I then gave considerable thought to my comment and posted it, only to find out that it did not post.

I wondered why initally there had been no previous comments. There never seems to be a shortage of opinions on the Bee's articles.

So I posted a one-liner to another article to see if that would take, and it did.

And then it dawned on me. There may be a shortage or lack thereof if the Bee decides that is the way it will be.

They may claim a "glitch" and true glitches happen all the time with technology, but the Bee's glitches happen very conveniently.

Are they trying to stiffle public opinion until they can view them? Perhaps edit them out?

What do you think?

 Activist1 now claims it is her "inalienable right" as guaranteed in the Constitution of the United States of America to keep marijuana illegal. I have yet to find the pertinent passage alluding to her assertion.

 My challenge to all Hivers on both sides of the issue is to show me that this "inalienable right" does indeed exist, or conversely, that the present prohibition on personal marijuana use is in itself unconstitutional.

 Of course Linda will not be able to defend her position, as usual. She will chime in with an insulting/hateful comment claiming there is nothing to debate, again, as usual. Expect her comments too include pfffft, LOL, and the ever popular "you legalizers".

 How about it Hivers, what are your thoughts on this?

 Part of the problem...a large part...of our present legal system lays squarely with the lawyers. Anyone with enough money can literally get away with murder...just ask OJ.

 Major drug dealers...with nearly unlimited funds...are thumbing there noses at law abiding society...buying innocent verdicts as easily as they cross the border with there lethal narcotics. The rich...movie stars...athletes..musicians...feel that they are above the law. They are...as long as they can unfairly manipulate the system to there advantage!

The D.C sniper was put to death by lethal injection today...just about two hours ago in fact.

You read it here a week before the McClatchy News printed the story here, and at  www.voiceofmodesto.org .  Our Sheriff mislead the McClatchy News and the citizens of Stanislaus County once again.

Here is Garth Stapley's story, a day late(well actually a week late) and a dollar short....

It's time to revisit Three Strikes laws

 As has been pointed out by the liberal legalizer crowd on The Hive, the United States has more prisoners per capita than any other nation on earth...more than even nations like North Korea, China, or the Soviet Union. Three Strikes laws seem to have little deterent value for the most hardcore of our felons...something new must be tried. At an average cost of $35,000 per year per felon we simply cannot afford to keep locking Three Strikers up for life...a cost that will bankrupt this once moral and great nation. It's time to "man up" and do what we should have done long ago...Three Strikes and your out...out of time on this earth! We need to raise the penalty to a capitol offense...rather than feed, clothe, shelter, and provide medical care to those who wish to wage war on society through there deviant behavior...we need to eliminate them. We need to streamline the process and carry out the executions in a swift and timely fashion.
