Meth, Sudafed and Gun Laws (Part II)

Meth and counterfeit bust in Gooding County

Three guys, caught cold in a meth lab, and two of them get a plea from manufacturing to possession. Most likely for turning evidence against either the counterfeiter and/or the third guy.

This is one of the things that are wrong with the way we prosecute the very people we say are the problem! These two amatuer chemists are going to be back on the street making more meth. Any DA who believes differently needs a slap upside their head with a clue-by-four.

The problem remains because a DA wants to attempt to make a bigger and better case, meanwhile more laws get passed that won't solve the problem.

This is different from the how and why of gun laws, how exactly?

It really doesn't matter how addictive or destructive meth is. We already have enough law. Like gun laws, they are simply not being prosecuted. So our dear legislators, go on to pass more inane laws that further restrict our rights, in the name of being tough on crime, and our prosecutors and courts continue to do what they have been doing. That's one of the hypocracies. It's also insanity.
 
As much as I argue the case against making Sudafed harder to get and for legalizing meth, part of the reason is to reduce dangerous crimes associated with drugs.

It boggles the mind that a DA would choose to push harder against somebody who just stamps out paper than against someone operating a ticking time bomb.

This pretty much proves that, at least in this DA's office, nobody gives a damn about crimes that have victims or are so negligent that having future victims is probable.
