The highest judicial body in the land has said -- unanimously -- that it's OK to toss people who the court acknowledges are innocent out of their houses for crimes they didn't commit and didn't even know about.

Read this... and see what you think about it!

What has the Supreme Court been Smoking?

I vote we take a trip to the white house, deviate from the tour to go to the restrooms, and light up a joint.

He doesn't pay for that house, the public does. That makes it public housing. So if we light up a joint in the white house, being guests, he is just as liable to be thrown out of there as the rest of these people...

...the government just gave the enemies of the war on drugs a new weapon.

*sarcastic smile as though any law would realistically be adhered to by politicians*

Woo hoo!!! Let's go!

ha. if you like that check out the laws on asset forfeiture in the usa, mainly enforced by the ATF. it's a fucking travesty.

God damn...*whistles in admiration* That is simply fucking brilliant. I knew there was a reason we kept you around...aside from Arsinik's insatiable sexual appetite.

As far as the Supreme Court Decision goes...I have to agree, to have the highest judicial body in my country call that decision 'reasonable' is an absolute travesty.

I didnt read the article.. but.. its dated April 1st ..

but i dont know what its talking about.. i didnt read it cuz i'm a rich kid and if I break the law I wont be going to jail.. so i dont care..

good garg, keep your mind on the importantissues!

Ha ha. not funny. have a heart, Garg.

That's just the tip of the iceberg.. It doesn't only apply to public housing.

If they can prove that a drug deal went on on your property.. Even if a guy you don't know stopped on your lawn and sold drugs to another guy you don't know.. They can take your house, your car, freeze your assets, and kick you out, allowing you only a suitcase full of clothes, which they can search through before you leave to make sure there are no valuables. And they can then auction all your shit off.

This story brings to mind what Jack London once wrote about the Supremes in his book "THE IRON HEEL".

They supremes are there to "interpret" the constitution at the convenience of the system.

I think that Jack London is right about that and I dread what the supremes might do next.

Calling them the Supremes makes me feel like we are being fucked up the ass by one of those 50's diva groups.

And then my pacifism would disappear quite quickly j/k.

There's a reason I've been planning on being a hermit, hidden where no-one knows where.

The Supreme Court's been out of hand for years. Frankly, I think they need to find a new way to appoint these people.

Let's just get rid of them altogether and stick Judge Judy up in there... Just kidding! She's as bad as they are!

"The ruling is not only a galling example of drug war lunacy, but also a gut-wrenching reminder of just how differently America treats its rich and its poor. The multi-million dollar homes of Beverly Hills or the Upper East Side of Manhattan have more than their share of kids struggling with drug problems. But as concerned as these kids' parents are, you can bet that their problems are not compounded by the additional worry that the entire family will be tossed out onto the street because their kid is seen smoking a joint three blocks away. Why should we hold poor people to a standard of accountability most of us could never meet?"

Duh! Public Housing is a priviledge. No one had to fucking start Public housing in the first place and then these people could live in a box. So....now there is public housing....it is fucking crawling with drug addicts, dealers and kids that ripe for training. Get the shit out anyway you can! I for one don't am sick of the shit! If you wanna be private about your illigal activities and not push it on others in the community...that's one thing. If your a fucking nusance out threre smoking crack on the GOT DAMN STREET corner, your kids selling it to other kids, or you've got dealers living in your home...GET THE FUCK OUT!!!! Some poor people who live in public housing would like to move up and out as well as watch their children become a success in life just like the next guy.

I SAY KICK THE FUCKING RETARDS OUT! GOOD RIDANCE AND FUCKING GOODBYE! GO LIVE IN A FUCKING BOX!!!

My neighbor was and old lady and her daughter was a teenager with 2 kids...the father was in jail. The old lady didn't know what the fuck was going on or was too old to care. Anyway...I was waking up to a yard full of fucking bloody siringes!!!
I told the little bitch to get her shit straight and keep it out of my face or she's going down! A week later I come out and her kids pushing himslef along on a scooter barefooted just barely missing a needle with his toe...DO I WANNA LOOK AT THIS FUCKING MESS EVERYDAY?! FUCK NO...IT MAKE ME SICK! So...I can either beat sense into her and go to jail or get her busted.
I get up early in the morning when all her junky friends are passed out in their cars in the front yard and I spray paint..."WE ARE JUNKIES...LOOK OFFICER A BLOODY NEEDLE HERE->" etc... I paint this in big glowing latters all over her townhouse in the yard...on the cars.
The cops drive by later and see this mess and get out to inspect...walah.

It's magic. The old lady goes to an oldfolks home, the girl is in rehab, the kids are with their grandparents and my yard is clean and fit for the neighborhood children to run barefoot through a sprinkler while waiting on the icecream man
THE END.

Is there anything stupider than the War on Drugs? I think not...

I don't live in public housing but I can imagine that the situations there can be worse. You have many people in one big space and it's just got to be out of control. You read about it all the time... people from the county getting killed after going to the city to purchase drugs. Most of these dealers live in public housing. Well they don't stay in public housing they slink on down through my neighborhood into the county and spread thier artificial joy. Then when then the new county addicts crawl back through my neighborhood to the city to support the sales. IT'S A FUCKING BUSINESS! I say get your little dope stash from your brother or uncle, keep it in the family, quit tracking shit under everyones nose like your advertising for a new store opening up... or fucking GO DOWN! ...AND YO MAMA TOO!

My brother became a problem so my parents kicked his ass out. Why would my dad risk losing his house in the suburbs to house a drug addicted dealer who's got stash. It would be stupid as fuck! So...either kick they ass to the curb and let them be where they belong...on the street in a box...so all the kids can see the future in it...or support them and go down too...and if you didn't know your kid was doing drugs than you need to open up your fucking eyes and recognize!AMEN!
