For what it's worth, I feel sorry for him as it will be tough as you say.
I know you did not say it was trivial, you made light of it.
I certainly do not agree with locking everyone up as me and most of my friends would be behind bars also! However, if you get caught you have to expect punishment that's all I meant.
As I said no offence intended to you. Don't want this thread to go the way of the mosque!  |
No, the situation with my mate and the point about what it would be like if the law on drugs were 100% successful were separate, if you look. Of course it was more than a few pills.
Yeah you do have to expect punishment & its your fault if you take the risk, and of course part of the point of prison is that its shit, i'm just expressing my sentiments of pity for anyone who has to go there, particularly when they've committed 'victimless' crimes.
Apparently everybody else thinks people who commit a crime deserve the time they get (which is often very disproportionate), which is ironic since that would mean most of us deserve to be in prison!
Anyway as this thread has turned into one big fat understanding of the original point I think its best left there.
