Seriously, Sheriff? Seriously?
This is an off-topic rant, just needed to vent for a moment.
I assume you’re aware that a certain popular Olympic athlete was photographed smoking out of a device commonly referred as “a bong”. Apologies were made, some sponsorships were lost, everybody moves on, right? I mean, we are involved in a perpetual war and we are on the brink of an economic depression, so we can probably just let bygones be bygones on this one, right folks? Wrong!
A defense lawyer in South Carolina says police in the county where Michael Phelps was photographed smoking from a marijuana pipe have been arresting people as they seek to make a case against the superstar swimmer.
Holy Mother of Christ, they are building a case against Michael Phelps for inhaling pot. Now keep in mind, this is the same state which recently had the Confederate Flag raised above its capital building, so apparently this brand of ass-backward nonsensical behavior from public servants is the norm down there. I guarantee there are handfuls of lawmakers supporting this action who are categorically against government expenditures or government intervention of any kind, but by all means, let’s use taxpayer resources to build a case against a 23-year-old American Olympic hero as if he’s “The Greek”, as if he’s running billions of dollars of black tar heroin into the Port of Charleston via cargo containers. Yes, that makes sense. Let’s drag out that old bulletin board, draw that criminal org chart, put some photos on the wall. Deploy surveillance teams, spend some money on top-of-the-line equipment. The state literacy rates are in the toilet year-after-year, but let’s put all that schoolin’ stuff on the back burner, we got ourselves a stoner to incarcerate! He’s a snide sombitch who thinks he can come into OUWR STATE and smoke REEFER?! Let’s GIT HIM!
I salute you, Sheriff Kleetus McIncest. You saw an opportunity to nail some wealthy hippie’s stones to the wall, and make a name for yourself in the process. Please stop at nothing to bring this monster to justice. Persevere, Mr. McIncest. Persevere.
