Oh yea this guy is obviously a danger to society. He needs to have his life destroyed and he should spend the rest of his natural life in prison.

God bless Texas. They need it.

Texas is a good thing.

It reminds the rest of the country what will happen to them if the Republicans ever get back in power.

Fortunately we have KKKarl Rove and the Cheney twits to remind us of that too.

The Democratic Party, proof that there really is a god.

This is actually a pretty sad story when you consider this man will probably live the rest of his life in prison. Texas, along with many other states including Florida, doesn't have a justice system. I don't quite know what to call what it is they do have but it sure ain't justice.

yeah Donner, and we should pay $30-40,000. per year, so let's see...

let's lowball, $20,000.

ok, so that's 1+million for this "offender."

not including other costs -- salaries, building prisons, etc., that 20k is simple, housing costs. i guess they eat better than the average food stamp recipient and the unemployed.

your child's future: Prisoner or Prison Guard. one day you'll think that is a good choice, eh? we're working on it!
turn in your neighbor today, and yourself while your at it, we have a crime to fit anyone and every one's needs.

VICES ARE NOT CRIMES.

And ichi don't forget if he has a family there is a bonus prize! They get thrown on the street which means the state gets to pick up the tab for them too.

Such a sweet deal!

So a million dollars+ to make an "example" of this guy.

Yup... great example for our kids.

But, look at the bright side...he finally gets free Healthcare!

Typical news from the most uneducated state in the country.

Just more reason to entrap and incarcerate Texan police. If the law won't change - expose the corruption in their system from the ground up.

Profile each officer involved in a "sting" would lead to fewer and fewer unwarranted arrests.

It's a "stick", but what are you going to do? They still raid gay people for having sex in their own bedrooms, Mexicans for drinking in bars and protect Republican corruption against everyone's best interest = idiot police enforcing idiot laws.

Typical news from the most uneducated state in the country.

God I love these stories that get the dim-witted Texas haters' (especially dulli) panties in a wad. It must hurt like hell to have "the most uneducated state in the country" run economic circles around his state which by all rights should be an economic powerhouse with its superior natural and human resources. But instead it's number 3 in unemployment and bankrupt. Maybe you guys need to dumb down a bit. LOL

Stings like hell, doesn't it dull, to have a state full of uneducated redneck hicks prosper while y'all get paid in scrip?

I love the sour grapers, and of them, I love the highly doped up dullifidian the most and watching him squawk "Texas sucks" just as predictibly as the chicken in the cage at the state fair pushes the button for its dose of grain when the light starts flashing. But then, California has always been the entertainment capital of the world. LOL

One sentence from me generates a couple of paragraphs from PettyGoat. Hahahaha.

One sentence from me generates a couple of paragraphs from PettyGoat. Hahahaha

That line again? Did I say "predictible" or didn't I? LOL

And since you are so easily amused with getting back more than you gave, I'll continue -- just for your benefit:

I'm glad my ability to generate more than a one line paragraph amuses you. It's something we in this stupid state are able to do. Lay off the drugs for a few hours and you, too, might be able to kick out more than a one liner. Jealousy is an ugly thing, dull. LOL

Those fucking ignorant rednecks. How can they? California has better SATs!!! Stings like hell . . . .

LOL

obviously it does, since a second sentence from him generated another paragraph. Looks like he hit a nerve. Why?

I missed the Texas Goat story AU. That was funny. Thanks!

How could you have seen it behind bars?

You made international news. Kudos! LOL

Why?

???

Because I love pushing dull's buttons. It's not that subtle of a thing I'm doing, Alex.

You made international news. Kudos!

I haven't been to Odessa in 4 years. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Uh, sure. Good 'story'....

Conspicuously absent while all this was going on.

Here's a HandiWipe to wipe the shame off your face and horns.

"Psst. Buddy. Hey, bring me a pair of wire cutters

"Because I love pushing dull's buttons."

That's funny. PettyGoat thinks he pushes buttons and yet responds with 2 paragraphs for every 1 of my sentences. Sucker.

Sucker.

Yep, I'm a sucker, dull. Hope this admission adds a little substance to your miserable life, you sad little man. I understand that when a state with those almight SAT scores gets bested by a state full of uneducated rednecks, you must need all the ego boosting you can get, right? LOL

Stand by and I'll put in a few more paragraphs so that you can repeat your tired old line in #14 again.

LOL

"Maybe you guys need to dumb down a bit. LOL"

How can we dumb down anymore? We have Pelosi, Boxer and Feinstein representing California and continue to keep dems in the majority in the Assembly and Senate.

But they sure do employ a lot of people to treat them as such.

What a waste of money!

What a waste of money!

No kidding. What a bummer it is to spend good money on pot just to have it confiscated by the cops!

That for sure! LOL

I was talking about the $1,000,000 to incarcerate him. What a waste of money.

I think I've relayed the story of my buddy, Ron, who was 18 when he and his 17 year old girlfriend were pulled over on the freeway outside San Antonio while he was rolling a joint in his van.

Ron's a big guy. He said the Rangers towered over him.

Pulling him out by his ponytail and shining a flashlight in his face they yelled "Well, asshole?! What do you have to say for yourself?!"

He'd managed to shove the baggie down his pants, but a corner was peeking out. As he recounted the episode:

"My life flashed in front of me. I saw myself getting gang banged in prison. My girlfriend had just gotten out of the van and was standing next to me. The first thing I could think of to say was 'my girlfriend was giving me a blowjob'. The one cop looked at the other and got a shit eating grin on his face. Then he poked me in the stomach and said 'HEY PAL! Way to go!'. They let me go. I'm waving back at them as they give me at thumbs up and I left."

That was one of the funniest stories I can recall in recent years. Soooo close to disaster. It was 1974 when a roach would get you 30 years. Man, was he lucky or what?

Oh, and when he told the cops his girlfriend was giving him a blowjob (which she wasn't BTW) she got all embarrassed and buried her face in his chest. That's what probably sold the cops on his story.

Yep. You just have to know what to say. I did, but fortunately, it was the truth and it came easily.

I lived in Georgia in the '90s. I had to come to Dallas once for business. One evening I went up to Denison (about 75 miles north of Dallas) to see my grandmother. I was cruising on US 75 in a rented Merc Coupe and drinking a beer. (just the one; I wasn't drunk).

I got pulled over by the state troopers for speeding. There was no place to hide the beer, so I didn't even try to. The cop saw it in the cup holder and asked me if I had been drinking. Of course there was no point in lying. Then he asked me how much. I told him that was my only one. Then he asked me where I was going (after seeing my GA's DL). I told him I was going to Denison to see my grandmother for dinner. He asked what she would think if she knew I was drinking and driving. I said she wouldn't like it much.

He made me pour my beer on the road and told me to dispose of the can before I got to Denison so that my grandmother wouldn't see it. I didn't get so much as a warning ticket for speeding, either.

Cool.

As I recall, Texas and Tennessee were the only two remaining states where you could drive with an open beer. I remember being struck with people driving around here drinking a beer.

Just checked. Texas' open container law went into effect in 2001.

www.highbeam.com

The cop couldn't have done anything to you unless you were legally drunk. Waste of a good beer! LOL

Well, that article says 'drink and ride'.

I do remember you could drive and drink a beer until sometime in the 90's here. Thought Texas' law was the last to go. I might be wrong about that, but it wasn't so long ago you could drink beer while driving unless you were drunk.

America's regressive drug laws are ultimately more dangerous than the drugs themselves.

Of course, the privitized prison system luffs 'em.

Be Well.

Imagine the unemployment problems, the children left homeless, if we ended the war on drugs?

Too big to fail.

the pot laws in texas are lame.
but walking around with ounces of weed while smoking a joint...knowing the laws there is just stupid.
if you like smoking weed move west.

as for goat thinking economy means much... how advanced do you consider the saudi's?... rich as hell and backwards as can be.

thats how most of america sees texas too

as for goat thinking economy means much...

You don't think "it's the economy, stupid"? I think most Americans would disagree with you. Certainly the 1,000/day that are moving to Texas do. Ask anyone if they'd rather live in a high unemployment, bankrupt state with high SAT scores or a state with lower SATs and a healthy economy. I think you'll find that dullifidian will be the only one who prefers the former.

AUSTIN The Texas Legislature will face a budget shortfall of at least $11 billion when it meets to write the next state budget in 2011, a key state official said Monday.

war on drugs = still here

I know of a kid facing major charges for selling 1 joint to a narc at Penn State. The kid tried to get the narc to go buy it directly, but the narc insisted, the kid made no dollars for the 6 dollar loint.

Prosecutors want to ruin his life.

yup... destroying America one American at a time!

Texas should be proud.

yup... destroying America one American at a time!

Yea, but with the job availability, low cost of living, no state tax, affordable real estate, people are pouring in at a rate of 1,000/day. We are having a helluva time keeping that Constitutional amendment that requires we "destroy lives one at a time" going.

Why do people keep flocking to that fucked up place, anyway? I guess they'd rather obey the local laws and be employed and live in nice homes. Thank goodness there are whiners like donnyboy and dullifidian to look out for their best interests and tell them how bad they have it! LOL

There goes Goat... off on a Texas is so wonderful rant again.

I was referring to the war on drugs destroying America one American at a time ya dingbat.

Unless you are giving Texas all the credit for the WOD stfu already and go fix something!

Besides I'd rather be broke in California than rich in Texas....hmmm cause if I was rich in Texas I'd leave and go back to California!

There goes Goat... off on a Texas is so wonderful rant again.

???

I never said that. If you construe the attributes I described as wonderful, then that is your call not mine. Granted, a lot of people do enjoy the things I described in my post upthread, (I'm one) but some of the more masochistic ones (dull comes to mind )it's a decaying state of poverty that floats their boat. I never pretended Texas is good for everyone.

Norml is not the end-all be-all of the legalize it movement, not by a LONG shot.

I got suspicious of NORML when they advocated for a 100 per ounce tax. To hell with that.

LEGAL AS LETTUCE babay! Or perhaps a smaller tax but 100 per oz is a bit steep.

Norml was great many years ago when they started out but they are some kind of corporate franchise now or something weird. They have lost touch with the grass roots long ago.

Last time I wanted to attend the NORML National Conference meeting in DC they had high registration fees at the door. Only suits and ties were entering.

I say wall off texas and give it to the jews and blacks.

....hmmm cause if I was rich in Texas I'd leave and go back to California!

And get 1/3 the house and land you had in Texas.

As I said -- to each his own. I'm glad that going downhill does it for you, donnyboy. Me? I'm happy with the 2 acres, > 22000/ft^2 3/2.5/2 house I bought for $103k. I realize not everyone can stomach these kind of good deals and like wasting their money. I'll float my boat, you float yours as you see fit.

I say wall off texas and give it to the jews and blacks.

Ain't it grand to live in a free countrhy where you can openly proclaim a death wish on one of the healthiest economies in the country? In China, you'd be shot!

Goat... there is a reason it is more expensive to live in California.

It has to do with the law of supply and demand.

I'll leave it to you to figure out(or rationalize in your own mind) why the demand is higher here in California than it is in Texas.

would like to see how many pass felony's the guys got on his record,bet theirs something more here than a little grass.guy in md. got 10 years for a speeding ticket of course he was on probation for vehicular manslaughter

The unemployment rate in Texas is still low, housing is cheap because they use non-union labor and there are no state or city income taxes. The State has a surplus because Repulicans run it. But don't move here libs, stay in the high tax rust belt or the Coasts with your fellow libs and smoke your stupid weed.

Why are they projected to run an $11 Billion deficit then?

Goat... there is a reason it is more expensive to live in California.

And with the jobs we have in Texas, and low cost of living we have, if we want whatever it is that is better in California, we'll go out there and buy it from those poor unemployed schmucks. LOL

"Besides I'd rather be broke in California than rich in Texas....hmmm cause if I was rich in Texas I'd leave and go back to California!"

Absolutely. Nothing in Texas but steers and queers, like Spokane. Cali has everything. Looking forward to another visit to Yosemite this summer.

ahhh yes laughing at the unemployed shmucks...nicely done Texan. I guess you run over those homeless people with cardboard signs and laugh at them too.

You couldn't afford to buy my garage. It appears to be worth more than your house.

I feel so bad for me!

Cali has everything.

Yeah it does. I'd put up a 20' fence with armed guards to make sure none of you freaks got out to corrupt the other 49.

Ahhh yes. You et alia can laugh at conditions in Texas and its people, but I am not allowed to laugh at conditions in california and its people...nicely done, hypocrite.

Any other situations where different sets of rules apply I should be made aware of? It's sad to see an adult whine as much as you do.

Nothing in Texas but steers and queers,

I've been laughing at that one since 1957. Good one, dull.

As I said, if we want it, we'll come by it. But who wants to buy bankruptcy, high cost of living, high unemployment, plastic people?

Actually Goat, and as you should well know, I do not laugh at the unemployed. I feel bad for them no matter who or where they are.

#61 | Posted by fwthom

Thom,

I have to argue you on this point. I agree that Republicans are much better at running state and local governments. They do a much better job at the Fed level but both Bushes fucked it all up!

But, my argument is with the Republican stance on law enforcement. They are Neocons when it comes to that. I disagree completely with the attitude of locking folks up for using drugs. I think it's criminal to lock someone for doing something that harms no one else. If they are selling that shit, that's another story.

If it were legal, they wouldn't be selling it would they?

Besides, it's Mother's Garage, not his to sell.

Here is another bit of trivia you can LOL about.. apparently if I bulldozed my house the bare empty land would be worth more than your whole house and 2 acres in Texas.

So if you took your high priced house, sold it, and spent that money in Texas, you'd live in a 10,000 ft^2 house on 10 acres.

Run with that! LOL

I'm still amazed at the sign that you wear on your forehead that says, "I'm a fool who pays WAAAAY too much for real estate."

But kudos for the bald honesty. I'll give you that. Most people won't admit to such stupidity

well I imagine the garage is worth 103 because it is sitting on very expensive land.

I don't make the real estate rules out here. I am I paid about that much for my whole place. But the great thing about where I live is that while we are affected by the burst in the housing bubble our prices are not dropping (yet) like they did in the bigger cities and my house had appreciated about 3.5 times what I paid for it.

Can't complain...yet.

oh and did you catch that goat? It is not what I paid for the house...it is what it is worth now!

enjoi yer lulz when you figure that one out.

oh and did you catch that goat? It is not what I paid for the house...it is what it is worth now!

Guessed Donnerboy missed that part. Umpteen fucking posts later, it's appreciated value time. Run Forrest, run.

#98 | Posted by AMERICANUNITY

So what's your point, other than what you put your hat on, dummy?

Whatever, Captain Obvious.

and really Goat you do know that the 103k "garage" did come attached to house right? And something you prolly didn't know is that house is less than a mile from the beach and I can see the sun set into the ocean. (NO I can't see Russia from my porch tho)

enjoi the lulz!

no I think it means that Californias are paid so well they can afford to pay $103k for a "garage".

Think again. I know a comparable job to main doesn't pay 4x (app property value price differences) in California. I know too many people there to listen to that BS, so don't even go there.

California is bankrupt because nobody wants property taxes raised and state spending is through the roof. Reaganomics started here.

enjoi the lulz!

Sorta dull in other aspects of your life than sensible real estate choices, I see.

As I've said thrice already, I am enjoying it. Thanks for providing the vehicle.

Re #103

sure whatever...and I can tell you of folks I know that make $300 dollars an hour...but they have to live in the Bay Area to get it...anyway you are way off topic ...you wanna talk about how unfair the ruling was for this poor man great otherwise I got other work to do...

Donnerboy better hope that garage is sitting on a foundation left over from Sutter's Mill.

Poor donnyboy. Just can't accept the fact the idiots in California pay far more for real estate than its worth. Which, as pointed out, goes a long way towards explaining their huge economic issues.

My suggestion to you donny boy is that you try to convince the people who run that place. We who know better will stay with the realisitic markets.

Good luck. California badly needs it.

and I can tell you of folks I know that make $300 dollars an hour...

Me too. Your point?

RON KARATE hit the nail on the head. Proposition 13 went way too far.

Wow, another Texas thread and I didn't get any licks in yet! Well I've been playing computer wars for two days now so I have an excuse. My 7 year old Athlon 64 finally bit the dust. Now I'm stuck with a Celeron box until I get a new cpu and motherboard. It sucks almost as bad as finding yourself on a Texas on ramp with your thumb out.

Anyway I enjoyed reading the goaty remarks about how great the Texans have it compared to the rest of us. Let's hope he stays there. I hear Honolulu's air cleared up right after he left.

My fondest memory of Texas was spending the evening in a bar in Dallas. At precisely 10 pm the bar tender suggested that a traveling buddy and myself stay put and keep a low profile, there was about to be a fight. Sure enough within a few minutes people from several bars in the neighbor hood all ran out in the street and started fighting for no reason I could figure. I asked the bar tender how he knew that and he said they do this practically every night. Even the cops stayed away.

After a short while every came back in licking the wounds and washing down their pride with another round of Lone Star.

I can understand why Texans hate universal health care. The emergency rooms would be overflowing with assholes with cut lips every night if the visits were free.

Sure enough within a few minutes people from several bars in the neighbor hood all ran out in the street and started fighting for no reason I could figure. I asked the bar tender how he knew that and he said they do this practically every night.

LOL You fell for it too, it sounds like, ringo. Doesn't it strike you as odd that it happened at precisely 10 PM? And that the Bartender knew what would happen at that exact minute? You fell for the oldest trick in the book. Your are such a gullible fish, ringo. Here's how the conversation went at 2:00 after you left:

Owner: How was business tonight?
Bartender: Had another stupid tourist tonight. Had to show him what he wanted to see.
Owner: You gave him the "stay low at 10:00" line?
Bartender: Yep
Ownder: Did he buy another round?
Bartender: Four as a matter of fact.
Owner: Good

How do I know this is true? This is how:

After a short while every came back in licking the wounds and washing down their pride with another round of Lone Star.
and

Even the cops stayed away.
Only Tourists drink Lone Star. It tastes like shit. The locals generally avoid it. Also, this blog is full of stories of the unjust Texas cops who bash heads for so much as jaywalking. You think they'd pass up a chance every night to throw a bunch of fighing drunks in jail? You can't have it both ways, ringo. Think!

Let me guess, to make your "Texas experience" complete, you also bought a 10 gallon hat with a faux rattlesnakeskin band at Walmart before you went out that night for the "nightly fight", right?

Thank god for stupid tourists and the stupid stories they fall for. LOL

Wish they would hurry up and secede already.

Too bad Limbaugh does not visit Texas, then you could combine two 'bash threads' into one. If he visited a hospital there then you could make it a triple hit by bashing the health industry also.

How about if Rush and Beck gave each other STDs in Texas and Palin once sought health care in the hospital they were treated at?

The liberal's wet dream thread!

I see I didn't miss anything on this thread... goatturd is still pondering the lint in his belly button while some poor sap is being destroyed by the archaic laws in Texas.

goatturd is still pondering the lint in his belly button ...

Let me guess: The lint in your navel is worth more than my house, right? Actually, I'm still pondering how an idiotic economic structure can exist where a garage is worth over 6 figures.

If the state of the economy in California is any indication, the answer is "very poorly"

LOL

I think I now know why goatman chose his handle. Goats like to piss all over themselves to attract the females. Of course all they ever attract is other goats, but what the heck, with balls as big as a goat has, any port in a storm, as the saying goes.

I've said many times -- as recently as yesterday -- that one of the reasons I chose the name goatman is because I piss in my beard.

Keep up the A game, ringo.

Actually, I'm still pondering how an idiotic economic structure can exist where a garage is worth over 6 figures.

What a retard...goatturd still doesn't understand that houses can sell for more than 103K. No wonder you are just an oil rig monkey.

Did it ever occur to you that a house in San Francisco can sell for a million+ dollars? That would make each square foot of a 2500 square foot home worth about $400!

The houses in my neighborhood sell for about $500,000. My home has about 2000 square feet. That makes each square foot worth about $250. My 3 car garage is about 300 square feet that makes the structure worth about $75,000. Add the value of the land underneath it (about 150,000 an acre) and the value of the garage goes over $103k.

Of course, it is only worth that if someone is willing to pay that.

Yet somehow in this "very poorly" economy someone is still buying California houses at California prices.

I bet that really pisses goatturd off too cause he just can't grasp the concept of how a garage in California can be worth more than his entire house in Texas.

I bet the folks in Louisiana are pondering the same thing regarding the value of their homes vs the value of homes in Texas.

Poor goatturd.

enjoy the lulz!

now back on topic:

The sun is out so I am going to the beach and smoke a joint right in front of God and everyone and have few lulz myself. Hell.. I may just give a few buds of my Jackpot away today in memory of the poor paranoid saps in Texas who can't enjoy this kind of freedom.

"I bet that really pisses goatturd off too cause he just can't grasp the concept of how a garage in California can be worth more than his entire house in Texas."

Pretty humiliating, eh?

..goatturd still doesn't understand that houses can sell for more than 103K

Didn't take you long to move into the loser circle today by assigning false positions. LOL Maybe you'd feel better if you lived in a placer where you didn't have to pay so much for a decent place to live. LOL

course, it is only worth that if someone is willing to pay that.

And Calornia has enough idiots to do that? That is what hyou are saying? That goes a long way to explaining the epic failure there they call their "economy". LOL

enjoy the lulz!

Without idiots like yhou trying to justify 6 figure garanges, I couldn't!

Pretty humiliating, eh?

What, that Californians pay far more for decent housing? I don't know, you tell me. Or are you asking me if I feel humiliated because I bought a larger home than ringo has for 1/5 the amount? Of course I don't feel humilated for that. Why should I?

Didn't take you long to move into the loser circle today by assigning false positions.

hmmm funny how being in YOUR "loser circle" makes me feel like such a winner!

nuff said

The Texas Taliban strikes again!!

"Also, this blog is full of stories of unjust Texas prosecutors who send people to jail for the rest of their lives for possession of a harmless drug that even I use. Damn I'm proud to be a Texan!"

Fixed that for ya.

Or are you asking me if I feel humiliated because I bought a larger home than ringo has for 1/5 the amount?

As usual you have no idea what you are writing about. Where I live houses are probable less then the average Texas home and the lot's are all one acre. A forested one on power is about $20,000. Honolulu, where the prices are 2 to 3 times the Texas average, is not on the Big Island.

Where I live houses are probable less then the average Texas home and the lot's are all one acre.

No offense, but you have lied on this blog so much and pulled so many "facts" out of your ass, I would have to verify that. Please link to a real estate page that reflects comparable property values in your area. I have 2 acres, 3/2.5/2 home, all real wood paneling, trees, a creek through my property. In fact, here's an image of it

Thanks

Go screw yourself goatfart. I don't owe you anything. Look it up for yourself trash mouth if you want to see who's a shit for brains liar around here.

I don't owe you anything.

Well, a decent person would feel he owed me (and everyone here the truth), but oh well.

Look it up for yourself trash mouth if you want to see who's a shit for brains liar around here.

Me, trashmouth. Re-read your post. LOL You just ain't too bright are you, ringo?

You made the claim. You bear the burden of proof ringo. That's the way things work. If you can't prove your claim, I'll consider it retracted and that you once again are trying to buffalo us by pulling "facts" out of your ass. Someone mentioned earlier your ass must be very sore from doing that every day.

Trolling, trolling, trolling down the river we go with a goat in a boat. Oh, what fun it is. Wehehehehe!

Just because you can't back up your claim doesn't make me a troll, ringo. LOL Where did you get that ludicrous idea?

I'm a troll for other reasons, but not because I ask you to back up your facts with links. If you didn't have such a bad reputation with the truth, I wouldn't ask.

BTW, I've been perusing the real rural estate properties on the big island and I don't see anything that comes remotely close to my place.

Sorry about that, liar

Trolling, trolling, trolling down the river we go with a goat in a boat. Oh, what fun it is. Wehehehehe!

Spam doesn't hide your BS as effeciently as you apparently think it does, ringo. But if it helps inside your tiny mind, go for it. But keep in mind, the rest of use still know what you are trying to hide.

BTW, I've been perusing the real rural estate properties on the big island and I don't see anything that comes remotely close to my place.

Trust me on this goat, you won't get along with anyone here anyway. Don't bother. No one on this rock likes mouthy pricks. The local boys would spot you getting off the plane.

Trust me on this goat

Sorry. Your truth record isn't so hot.

But feel free to post a real estate link and prove me wrong. Otherwise I have to assume the ones I am looking at right now are correct.

The local boys would spot you getting off the plane.

???

I was perusing the housing prices to verify your story, not as a potential buyer. I have no desire to live the rest of my life on an island.

Please try to keep up, ringo

I was perusing the housing prices to verify your story...

Trolling, trolling, trolling down the river we go with a goat in a boat. Oh, what fun it is. Wehehehehe!

Still trying to hide your lies with spam, ringo? Fuck, you're a desperately tenacious SOB. LOL

Gotta give goaty credit for one thing, he takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin. He reminds me of Butthead of the Butthead and Beavis duo.

Gotta give goaty credit for one thing, he takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin

I would ask for a link to a post where I got "licked", but like everything else you say, it's a lie and the link doesn't exist.

So I won't waste my time asking or embarrass you by your failing to provide, thus proving yourself a liar again, ringo.

You are welcome

God I love these stories that get the dim-witted Texas haters' (especially dulli) panties in a wad. It must hurt like hell to have "the most uneducated state in the country" run economic circles around his state which by all rights should be an economic powerhouse with its superior natural and human resources. But instead it's number 3 in unemployment and bankrupt. Maybe you guys need to dumb down a bit. LOL

Stings like hell, doesn't it dull, to have a state full of uneducated redneck hicks prosper while y'all get paid in scrip?

I love the sour grapers, and of them, I love the highly doped up dullifidian the most and watching him squawk "Texas sucks" just as predictibly as the chicken in the cage at the state fair pushes the button for its dose of grain when the light starts flashing. But then, California has always been the entertainment capital of the world. LOL

sort of like Iran.. you have oil and all the shit that springs up around it.

How Many "Pot Convicts" can Texas "Afford" to Incarcerate?

At $50.000-plus per year of prisoner incarceration,that "4.6 Ounces of Pot" will cost the Texas taxpayers $1 Million and 750.000 Thousand Dollars! So just 1000 long serving "Pot Prisoners" would eventually cost Texas in the $Billions of Dollars!

All of you idiots who are claiming that this could only happen in Texas are once again showing your utter ignorance. This could have happened anywhere. Our drug laws are too harsh across the board. The reason his sentence was so excessive is because it is obvious he had intent to sell and he was so close to where kids are. Who's to say this guy wasn't a dick and would try to sell weed to little kids? I do think the sentence is too harsh, but don't blame Texas.

Danni says Texas doesn't have justice. Well, since you're obviously so intelligent on the subject maybe you can explain why we have some of the speediest justice in the country. We actually DO have justice here. Ingrates like Danni just aren't used to seeing what it looks like.

"In Texas we have the death penalty......and we use it."-Ron White

Yeah the usual suspects are here lamenting on the fact this idiot gets 35 years but we don't know what skeletons are in this guys past. If he has a long rap sheet it could make a difference in what his sentence is. For example, if he'd been convicted for child molestation in the past, wouldn't you think it would make a difference in how he was treated in sentencing for his latest crime being that it took place so close to kids?

Or I could just start the rumor that Texas is trying to get rid of undesirable liberals hard and heavy by sending them to jail for long periods of time for doing drugs. LMFAO.

Lonnie

If only law enforcement and the Justice Dept would be as diligent in enforcing laws against politicians and those bankers and others that stole many trillions and houses from pensions and our underlying economy and that truly hurt the nation.

...but we don't know what skeletons are in this guys past.

I believe that was already mentioned Lonnie.

You agree this is cruel and unusual for a first time offense then?

Texas has all that extra cash because they sure don't spend it on education.

Enjoy.

Texas is in the same boat as most states:

AUSTIN (March 8, 2010)John O'Brien, director of the Legislative Budget Board, told a legislative committee Monday in Austin that the Texas Legislature will face a shortfall of at least $11 billion when lawmakers write the next state budget in 2011.

Texas Faces $11 Billion Shortfall

"Texas has all that extra cash because they sure don't spend it on education."

Well they do rank 47th out of 50 in SAT scores. But perhaps that's a coincidence.

"Texas Faces $11 Billion Shortfall "

Oops. At least in Cali we can light up a bowl and forget about it.

Nulli I bet You know what Freewheelin' Franklin of the Fabulous Furry Freek Brothers says:

"Dope will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no Dope."

Texas has all that extra cash because they sure don't spend it on education.

Actually it has more to do with the relatively good economy and business environment. Perhaps there's something said to being uneducated. LOL

Say all you want but it all boils down to one thing: prosperity

Enjoy

I do. Immensly

Texas' $11 Billion deficit is 'extra cash'?

Texas has $440 per capita in deficits, and California $500. not a whole lot of difference.

All states are having trouble.

Well they do rank 47th out of 50 in SAT scores.

Poor ignorant dully thinks that education = intelligence. The fact that smart states prosper, while stupid states (regardless of education) are dismal economic failures pretty much shoots that stupid theory out of the water. LOL

"The fact that...bla bla bla"

The facts speak for themselves. SAT scores: 47th out of 50.

"Dope will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no Dope."
