    Without knowing anything other than the kid was a model student and was arrested on drug charges, my first reaction is that it’s the drug laws that should be in question.

    President Clinton may not have inhaled, but he sure did experiment with drugs by his own admission.

    While President Bush is rumored to have experimented with drugs, he never admitted to inhaling. He was candid in his speech at the LSU graduation ceremony where he admitted that he, like a lot of LSU students who graduate with a “C average” spent too much time at bars instead of studying. I wonder if he had a fake id and what other excesses he did and now condemns.

    Anyway, how many of us experimented to some extent with drugs, but were lucky enough to never be caught and have gone on to lead good productive lives?

    I urge anyone who believes that people should be free in our country to make their own decisions as long as they don’t hurt others, to not just gloss over an article like the one this post began with, but to question the wisdom of our contemporary prohibition.

    Moderators, you may wish to move this to another forum.

    I can honestly say that I've never heard of this award. However, It sounds like Fill Fulmer is a perfect choice to name this obviously prestigious award.:wink: That being said, this kid appears to have made an enormous mistake. I hope he hasn't blown his chance to get a free education. CFB will cut him loose if he's convicted. Its sad to see a kid with a bright future throw it all away.

    That's friggin awesome! Genius! :lol:

    The point of this comment will surely show up at any time. I'll check back. :huh:

    Millions of adults find themselves advising against the very things they did as kids. This is called maturity. :rolleye33: You should try it. It's pretty phat.

    He was caught SELLING drugs, bro. It's not like he got caught tokin' a doobie under the bleachers.

    Wait. Are you high right now? You are, aren't you. I get it.

    You are free to make your own decisions. If you decide to break the law, you take the risk. This kid SOLD drugs. When I was in high school, I needed cash. So I swept floors in a friggin' hardware store. And I cut lawns. And I cleaned windows and gutters. Somehow, I avoided selling drugs for spare cash, or breaking the law in any other way.

    Yeah, like TigerDroppings - likely to find more folks who agree with your thesis there...

    As much as I agree with most Libertarian viewpoints, this is exactly the kind of silly logic that keeps me away. Too many dopeheads in the Libertarian party.

    I think that whole discussion should got to the free speech alley area. Thats what its there for. By the way, this DOES NOT count for fulmer cup standings, he was a signee, not a member of the team.

    check out THIS THREAD from last week.

    Roy, you did read the part about him selling the drugs to an undercover agent, right?

    I would love to see pics of this agent trying to pretend he was a High School student.:hihi:

    You're kidding, right? Read it again. And he was selling, not buying. Big difference.

    Thanks, PK! You are right on both counts - sorry for the mistake. I posted this to be humorous, not to start a debate on our national drug laws. You just never know where these things will lead when you post. But that is the nature of TigerForums, right? :rolleye33:
