It is no longer black or white we now have to accommodate people's sensitive feelings. And we wonder why our justice system is in a disarray. Tim proves my point.
"Your honor I think that I should be able to smoke pot because everybody does it and it is a stupid, wrong and a hypocritical law."
The Judge "Well then, since it is a dumb law and everybody does it and it is not enforced this case is dropped. Now you go ahead and smoke away"
I am glad that dude got his butt put in the slammer. He should be in there longer for just being stupid.

Actually I stand corrected, "THAT TIME" it was the 70 SS 454 they got.
Whip I'll tell you anything you want to know, just ask. There are no rules, no boundrys, no laws in my life. I do what I want, when I want, cause I want, and I have no one to answer to but me.
And come on you know me by now Buddy

Rosa Parks "broke the law" when she sat in the "whites only" section.
The patriots who started the American Revolution "broke the law."
Conscientious objectors to war "break the law" when they refuse to serve in the military.
Members of the Underground Railroad "broke the law" when they helped free slaves.
In many states, people "break the law" when they engage in oral sex.
And each of us "breaks the law" when we drive over the speed limit, or take a questionable deduction from our taxes, or smuggle a lighter onto a plane, or modify the exhaust system on our trucks, or cross an intersection when the pedetrian light is flashing red.
In each case, the offense is not morally wrong and the offender is willing to pay the price for his crimes, either because the offense is trivial or because there is a greater moral good to be accomplished.
If you cannot make the distinction between these "crimes" and malum in se crimes, then your thinking on "the law" is primitive.
In my case, I refuse to accept that the government has any right to tell me what drugs I can take, what materials I can read, or what body parts I can put my mouth on. There is nothing in our constitution that gives either the state or federal government that power, and even if there were such a provision, it would be wrong.
BTW, without attorneys willing to challenge existing laws as being stupid, wrong, or hypocritical, most of the changes in the law would never happen.

Looks like I am about ready for those tires as well. Ran at Cecil last night to a 11.26/124.8. Hang in there Rob, it gets better all the time. Can't wait for my nitrous kit to be installed.
