Boo Hoo DEA and law enforcement....Locking people up is not going to fix our drug problems in this country. These guys will simply be replaced by more dealers because the amount of money you can earn from selling drugs far exceeds the risk for most people. In the end, our society has ruined two lives and left them with no place to turn but crime once their out of prison. Wake up America and start to change our view of narcotics as something criminal rather than a medical problem. We need to start helping people by regulating these drugs to reduce the amount of money and violence they create. Prohibition never worked for alcohol and it won't work with narcotics either. Some day when we are flat broke as a country maybe we'll decide to start profiting from substances such as cannabis instead of criminalizing it. The demand equation hasn't changed in years and won't in the foreseeable future. The drug war is a losing battle that only makes our country more unsafe and give billions in profits to the cartels.
They only gave him probation? Geeezzzzzzz...what the heck is up with that? While he is on probation he is still going to be messing with drugs. He should have been sent to jail for more then 10 years....wow.
