The town’s City Council last week cut the maximum fine for pot smokers caught with an ounce or less of the herb from $1,000 to $500 and did away with the possibility of jail time."</blockquote><br /><br /><blockquote>"The only lawmaker to vote against the new law said she thought the fine should be set even lower, at $100. “When people use marijuana recreationally it’s not a major crime, and people shouldn’t pay high fines for it,” Tanya Ishikawa told the Post. “Personally, I think $500 is too high, especially in these times.”"</blockquote><br /><br />This is great news. Mandatory fines and sentences are just ridiculous. First it defines the arbiters to be idiots as to not have their say on the laws of the matter. Are the judges that stupid as to not be able to follow guidelines? Is there that much corruption that that we need mandatory minimums?<br /><br />If the states are to get by with their budgets they sure need to stop locking up non-violent criminals.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6712370792229403129-6509293100366039463?l=racyrick.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Racy Rickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15141455290488221601noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712370792229403129.post-29118373440037995622009-01-12T07:33:00.000-08:002009-01-12T07:38:20.264-08:00This is great news. This new administration is really inspiring. I'd personally like to see Habeus Corpus reinstated. It is very important to treat your enemies' soldiers like you'd want your soldiers to be treated.<br /><br />Also, what this video is about: The Obama adminstration will get rid of Don't Ask Don't Tell. I hope they also de-christianify the military as well. There are just too many injustices within our own military. How are we supposed to take over other countries and tell them how to run themselves?<br /><br />-Rick<br /><br />The point in the video about this is 4 minutes 15 seconds.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KrtpMrtnGJU&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KrtpMrtnGJU&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6712370792229403129-2911837344003799562?l=racyrick.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Racy Rickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15141455290488221601noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712370792229403129.post-50636635375209485342009-01-11T12:38:00.000-08:002009-01-11T12:46:05.925-08:00This blog is a place of review, reflection, evangelism, sexuality, and special interest.<br /><br />I promise to tell the truth as I hear and see it.<br /><br />-"Racy Rick" Lincoln<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6712370792229403129-5063663537520948534?l=racyrick.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Racy Rickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15141455290488221601noreply@blogger.com0
