Probably partly upset knowing that if whites protested with riots, they would all be rounded up and charged with hate-related crimes, and placed on watch-list, automatically losing their gun rights, fired from their Jobs, legally evicted from their homes etc.

You know, never get away with it.

No. I think they're upset because their son was shot in the back (according to private autopsy) because he had less than an ounce of weed on him.

Don't think they necessarily want white people to riot but are curious as to why no national outcry took place.

Does this remind your tour of (call of)duty?

Cops are getting out of hand. They do what they want and get away with it. They will continue until people rise up and do the same to them. #fuckacop.

Being college students it totally bankrupted them at the time. If there is a plant involved they would weigh it with the dirt. Fucking ridiculous.

In criminal justice classes there are theories they study that say if the punishment is worse than the crime itself than it is immoral an unethical and not really a deterrent.

I hope the family is suing that city because they will win.

They used to do that here at one time, throw the whole fucking plant on the scale, roots & all, WET, and multiply that by $20 a gram to get the 'street' value......... Hillbillies with a few plants in their backyards were made out to be millionaire cartels

The cost associated with setting people up for a marijuana possession charge

I could see maybe posing as a buyer to go after the dealers, but posing as a dealer to entrap people buying a few grams

They get it all back X2 at the end of the year. It is more of a revenue racket, than justice service. It would have been a bonus of the guy was put on probation, handed a hefty fine, and ordered to pay for monthly supervision.
