In small towns, there exist less options. In larger cities and communities, there exist more options. It seems that is the issue here more than anything.

And it's not to say that breaking the law is black and white in every court. But, the laws broken is viewed first, as the safety and well being of society is paramount. If the courts involved have the ability to help with addiction, they usually do. If you live within a community that does not have those resources, then I sadly say it's up to the defendant to find a way. Counseling, AA meetings, whatever you need to do.

I hope she, or rather HE, proves us all wrong. I really, really do. In a case like this, being wrong is the best thing for everyone. I just hope that no matter what happens, she is happy.

It goes both ways. I saw a man commit three felonies in the same year, and simply get his probation extended. He was a 21 yo AA male with 6 prior felonies. He never served a day in prison. He had a public defender, whom I can say the majority of fight very hard for their clients.

And his charges were Assault, Domestic Violence, and two felony level drug cases.

I'm sorry. I'm cracking myself up. It's been a long day...

Hi doll!

Well, I won't get to see them and I'm not letting him take any of me!

That sounds like you're delusional. Which was why I asked if this was for real. I'm not certain you're grounded in reality, you insult anyone who has an opinion, and you bait people to arguments. But then again, delusional implies incompetence, whereas this just seems to be personality thing.

I can assure you I am who I say I am.


I can assure you I'm a nice guy.




I'm SO sick of that crap.

I can explain this. If you have prior offenses you get a harsher sentence. There are repeat violent offender specifications as well. The folks I see have felony after felony, starting at age 12 or so. They get slapped faster, yes, because they keep doing it. Don't let the stats fool you. Recidivism is RAMPANT.

And now he is less the photos he deleted for her!

And it's also the OP's name... it cracked me up!!!

Yar!!!

This sort of thing sickens me. Am I to believe that this message was created just for me, despite its cookie-cutter quality? I did remove actual names and e-mails for privacy and to not violate site rules.

I know, I miss you because I've not been here.

Is this for real or is it a punked type thread????

I would like to say that I think drug addiction is a terrible thing. But it is NOT the job of the criminal justice system to fix it.

And the comment about minorities.... Are you taking into account prior legal history and juvenile history?

No, if a crime was committed, for which they were sentenced to probation... they promised to abide by the rules of probation. If they broke those rules by using drugs...

That is like saying F-You to the judge, the whole legal system. I know FOR A FACT that if you go to your probation officer and say, I'm using. I need help... they will place them in treatment. But if you break the law under the influence that does NOT excuse the fact you broke the law. Prison is not for treatment and neither is it for rehabilitation. However, on the positive side it is much harder to find drugs in jail and less so in prison so that could be viewed as a jump start to sobriety and treatment.

Trash be man job.

I just read your profile and I must say, ”I am impressed!” You do seem to be a beautiful awesome woman whom I hope will honor me with a reply. Until that time, here are a few details about me: My name is WEIRDOMAN and I am a quality gentleman seeking one special woman. I take a lot of pride in being, not just good, but outstanding as father to my two daughters. This is the most important part of my life and I will not date a woman who cannot appreciate a man with this level of dedication. (There are a lot women out there who find men like me unattractive)
If you are seeking the thug type or metrosexual guy I am not the man for you. I am 100% ,”Real Man,”not some little boy play acting at being a man(thug types) nor a girlfriend with male reproductive parts.(metro things) I know it is not popular in today’s culture to be man but I am the type who leads from the front. That means being there110% for my woman and family. Also communication is critical to a strong relationship. If we become serious we must be able to discuss both the good and bad.
I am of mixed descent and find my background to be awesome. I have a diverse family of whom I am very proud. I am on here to have that family thing with one special woman. If you have children they are part of the package or if you do not have children you will join my team. Family is very important to me.
My passion, besides you if we become a couple, is for fine literature. My favorite writer is Pushkin with Tennyson a close second. Tennyson’s poetry is so potent if I were read some it to you a disclaimer must be signed. I can’t be responsible for but will enjoy the resultsJ
I am well educated and have a career I love. I enjoy playing most sports, the arts, trying new and adventurous things and, of course, doing those little romantic things that will put a smile upon you face that can be seen for miles.
Like what you have read? Take a chance and send a reply. It could be a life changing and enhancing experience. I hope we can make contact and get to know each other. You can contact me at BLANK.com (that is a zero three) Look for hint under my name for e-mail.


Lexy, first of all. I MISS YOU!!!

Second, this is from a different site.... just received. Thoughts? It seemed to fit in so nicely with the topic....

Not my friend, something I heard during work. Definitely not a friend... is an inmate!

Well, Lemme at her. I'll tell her I'll take her man and go to strip clubs and watch porn with him.
