The Making of a Complicated Life.

It's a shame that...

That's how it starts, then I wonder WTH is wrong with our society. It would seem that some people have a habit of making other people lives more complicated than it already is.

I may be wrong but, I think my comment is easy to understand. Jose Guerena is the victim of the outdated and failed prohibition policies we have in place. Would this have made the news or be this controversial if he did have drugs?
How can anyone claim this as being a justified death regardless of the questionable drug laws?

In my opinion it's a lack of respect to define our ability to be a respectable citizen based on what we possesses to consume in the privacy of our own homes under our own freewill.

My concept of a respectable citizen should be defined by how they treat the people of their community and by whether they can accept and admit responsibility for their mistakes.

Everyone is entitle to mistakes, it's the ability to learn from ones mistakes that make people better. This holds true for both an individual and a group.

The old adage is:
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
Now the problem with that is some people keep trying the same thing the same way over and over and over. The failure rate will always be 100%. Excuse me, that isn't what it means. It means we need to rethink the problem and find a competent and practical solution to the problem. Ignoring this means to me that we the superior intelligent beings aren't as superior as we think we are.
