Message: [QUOTE="CaptainJ, post: 1336622, member: 1553"] It's a product of how society has been programmed to thing by the powers that be, through their minions, the mainstream media. Plenty of officers support legalization. Wouldn't be better if our tax dollars were spent to fight actual crimes, rather than create revenue through the "justice system" and the draconian laws that allow the government to take away everything you own for certain drug charges? And the stings they set up for such things, along with prostitution, are in the spirit of entrapment whether or not some judge has said otherwise. Kudos my man. It's refreshing when I see folks having empathy for others we've been taught to label as criminals. Regarding that quote, I'm not sure if it would be more sad if the cop was routinely repeating that propaganda, or if he sincerely believed he was telling the truth. When the justice system became a machine to create revenue, the spirit of justice left the building. [/QUOTE]
