Do these police really think they are accomplishing anything with these drug arrests?

Story here.

On Wednesday, police arrested Jose Reyes and Leonel Pereira. During a search at Manchester locations, investigators said they arrested the men and found an undisclosed amount of cocaine and more than $20,000 in cash. Reyes is charged with possession of a narcotic. Pereira is charged with possession with intent to sell.

Do any of you in law enforcement notice that these stories and arrests have been happening non-stop for dozens of years?  Billions of tax dollars wasted, yet the problem continues….  day in, day out.  Do you really think you are doing ANYTHING to solve the problem?  If you do, you are rather uninformed and uneducated.

I know the time and effort that goes into one of these investigations to arrest non-violent people.  It is a total waste of money and your taxpayer funded time would be just as well spent golfing.  You’d be accomplishing about as much in the battle against drugs on the back nine of your favorite golf course as you do making these arrests.  The only difference is that you wouldn’t be reinforcing the violent black market….  and you could improve your golf game at the same time!  Win win if you ask me.

One day, you will look at the evidence objectively and not from the perspective of your paycheck.  Your jaw will drop and you will realize that what you’ve done is a total waste and terribly destructive.

When that happens…………..  you can help be part of the solution.

China, Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and the United States.

Ahhh, how warm and fuzzy does it make you feel to know that the society you live in remains in the list of five countries worldwide that continue to mur-, execute people, for punishment and as a deterrent towards future execut-, murdering.  Nothing like a parent spanking their child to teach them not to hit.

How even more warm and fuzzy would it make you to know that if the government people in the State of New Hampshire were to carry out the sentence of death on their lone African American death-row inmate (in a state comprised of %97+ white people)……….  it would have to be by hanging.  New Hampshire state law says:

If it is the law it needs to be enforced!

Oh wait.

Despite what some in positions of authority like to claim: no it doesn’t.

And clearly: no it ISN’T.

A WMUR-9 article that ran today is covering New Hampshire’s “Blue Laws” and the political will being established to repeal them.  Lucky for us the state is considering removing the restriction on conducting business on a Sunday and the penalties it imposes.

The unenforced laws date to 1883 and limit business activity “except works of necessity and mercy” to repair mills and factories that couldn’t wait. The laws prohibit citizens from engaging in any play, game or sport.

Well I don’t know about you, but I am ready to surrender.  I had a great time at Free Keene Fest last Sunday and it was all done in violation of the law.

State, strapped for cash, targets lone shelter for at-risk juvenile females… will ship them to lock-up instead.

That’s right.  No longer will young at-risk juvenile females be sent to a location where they can receive treatment, compassion, caring, and support…………. they will be shipped to New Hampshire’s prison for kids (part of the Juvenile Justice system).

(clearly, the above is a suitable location to ship a young female who is victim of family related sexual assault or other horrific abuse……)

I think the people in state, county, and local government make their intentions pretty clear when they need to cut funding for helping at-risk youth so they can continue to build multi-million dollar correctional facilities which primarily will be used to keep non-violent offenders behind bars.

Disgusting.
