I just made the comment without checking. Turns out that he was a repeat offender, and Louisiana has very harsh repeat offender laws. Guy needs to get it together, but I personally think life for two dime bags is insane. I come from a state with a more lenient view of marijuana to be transparent with you. permalink parent save report block reply ▲ 1 ▼ – deleted 1 point 121 days ago +1 / -0 ▲ 1 ▼ – becky21k1 1 point 121 days ago +1 / -0 Right, but was it his first go-round or his 738th? permalink parent save report block reply
