Just how do you prioritize crimes? That’s about the dumbest thing I’ve heard of in a long time. Sounds like a slippery slope here if not illegal in itself. Think about it….. If a bunch of citizens get together and want to make drunk driving a low priority they get together a petition vote on it and the cops don’t look for drunk drivers anymore, or until they crash and kill someone.
And they want to leave it up to each cop,
"Technically, by law, (the police) have to honor and respect the local law, but the truth of the matter is that it will be left up to the individual officer's discretion."
1) I would think that the agents conducting that raid aren’t local cops so the idea of low priority wouldn’t effect their actions.
2) If a cop runs across weed in your car or is called to investigate a situation how do you prioritize that, busted.
Where do you draw the line?
I don't have a problem if it's legal but until then...you're under arrest in my book.
What is wrong with people’s lives that they need to escape reality? I like my life the way it is and don’t need mind altering drugs to escape it. Remember, when you come back to earth the problems are still there and maybe worse! GET HIGH ON LIFE Leave the drugs for the jerks.
