One of the theories as to why they do these things is money. there is a company in the federal system called UNICOR. It is a major supplier to the us military and the workers in prison make a average of 50 cents a hour. Only politicians can own stock in this company and those are the very same people who sign off on military purchases. They have a vested interest to keep a slave army working for their profit. The commissary system is just as corrupt guess who own Keefe one of the main products brands in the prison system. The bush family with a percentage owned supposedly by the bin laden family, although I cannot say for sure about the bin laden aspect.

If they catch you with some circumstantial evidence and can get 2 people to testify you were planning on committing a crime you will do more time than if you actually committed it. If you actually get caught with 100 lbs of Mary Jane then they can only charge you for 100. For a conspiracy they can put any number they please on it and the punishment is the same as if you actually did do it. If you don't sin, Jesus died for nothing.

Initially it was put into law to bust mafia members as they could not get enough evidence to convict them. But once the law is on the books then they can manipulate and distort it in any manner they wish. This is why I am so against the patriot act. While the feds assure us it will only be used to fight terrorism it is only a matter of time before they turn it on the people. The use fear to get laws passed that people would not ordinarily allow. Then in time they slowly warp that law to give them more power and control. Those who have studied American history can attest to the fact that the US government was only supposed to play a minor role in our nation. The power to govern was supposed to be in the states hands. This has slowly shifted over the last 100 or so years to the point that states rights are heavily compromised and the ruling power is the US govt. If you don't sin, Jesus died for nothing.

You're talking about the RICO act, right? I thought that there were recently a few restrictions applied to that, finally? Thought I heard it somewhere, too lazy to look for a source now. And it's easy to be cynical about these things.. I sure am sometimes. But overall, I remain optimistic. Not necessarily about the US, but about the people on this planet. As always, the power for change lies with the people. Sometimes it only takes one person to stand up and make a difference. Embrace this moment, remember: We are eternal. All this pain is an illusion.

I dont know it modifications were put on it or not it's been a few years since I been in the greybar motel. Considering the overcrowding that is going on in there something has to give. They say in america 1-2% of the population at any one time is in jail. Given the cost to house people in such facilities you can see how taxing this is on the state, federal, and local govts. If you don't sin, Jesus died for nothing.

I know this is a really old thread, but found it in a search and thought it was relevant to add the outcome. Charges were dropped and he was released to return home: http://www.chron.com/new...medicine-man-1704485.phpI wouldn't go as far as to say justice prevailed as imo he should have never been held and the laws regarding enthogens are highly misguided. However, for others that find this old thread for whatever reason should know that he was released and charges dropped.

Lots of cowboy types there and alcohol is their sacrement....the rodeo is their fun... bullsh.. when's the last time you've been here? you're talking about a state with a large influx of people from Cali and NY; this isn't Kansas. This man could appeal, as there are state laws which observe religious freedom. Federal gov't recognizes DMT as C-I, that has nothing to do with TX. It's felony posession in most states. lol this texan doesn't have a small brain, and prefers microbrew over watered-down rat piss. I actually prefer a mescaline margarita over that. I don't own a pair of boots, and have never been to a rodeo. I don't own a truck, I don't even like trucks, nor country music. nice generalizations, though. not all of us are bible-thumping/skoal dipping hicks.

blend up san pedro (or cactus of your choice) with frozen margarita mix. (optional) add lime juice and alcohol, if desired. "Nothing is true, everything is permitted." ~ hassan i sabbah

Old news, he was let go and sent back. Meditate before you venture, take it seriously, use it as medicinalβit is good psychotherapy if needed. Realize that you, the Earth, others, and the Universe are all one and the same process. Then take that knowledge back to become, as you already are, one with nature. Eternity in every moment. Divinity in every particle. All is one organism.
