Exactly.  The jail is responsible.  It's hardly an execution, though.  

The point of sending him to jail was to punish him for breaking the law.  You don't think people should be tried and sentenced for breaking the law anymore?

If he can recieve special treatment, why not this wheelchair bound person? Justice is not Justice anymore...

Judges facilitate to people with jobs all of the time by allowing them to serve out there time at night and on the weekends.

maybe it was this rolling bag a ****s time to go.  any one thought of that?

Anyone figure out how he smokes pot without being able to breath on his own.

Paralyzed or not he still broke the law.  Tards!

Remorse for doing something that made him feel better?

Tell ya what.

Some 11 years ago I had to undergo 6 months of outpatient Chemo.
an interesting experiance but not one I would reccomend for everyone LOL

 Even the most powerful anti nausia medication did nothing for me. I was puking right in the docs office.
After my treatments I would go home and wouldnt feel like moveing or eating for 4-5 days at a time
I would get my Chemo on thursdays and literally wouldnt eat again till sunday night.
Cola tasted like wet cardboard. simple foods like Eggs tasted and felt like big blobs of snot in my mouth.
my entire nutritional intake for those 4 days consisted of beer and powdered ice tea mix ( the only two things that tasted normal and was able to keep down)
 
Concenred and after trying all available legal options my doc told me "im not supposed to be telling you this and I cant perscribe or get it for you but there are studies that show that smoking pot can often help with the nausia and your ability to function)

fortunately I still knew enough of potheads that were only too happy to give me the stuff.

It helps it really does. Do not ever let anyone tell you it doesnt. I dont care what kind of crap the pharmaceutical companies spew about it. I am living breathing and eating proof it DOES help.

  Afterwards I felt well enough to at least get up and move around and stay active (the one thing Docs always reccomend) It improved my appetite significantly and reduced my puking episodes to the point of being almost non existant

So I see no reason for him to feel or have to express any remorse whatsoever.

Did I break the law?
Your damn right I did.
If faced with the same thing I'd gladly do it again.
If I know someone that needs it I will also Gladly help them get it if I can and PROUDLY serve the jail time if caught.

This is a law that is just plain wrong and needs to be changed.
Probably isnt because the pharmaceutical Co.s cant make much money on it.
Kinda hard to do that when your local neighborhood grower can grow a more superiour quality product in his closet at less money then they can in their labs

Thank god the public was saved from this menace.

[Martlet]

Jail isn't to save the public.  It's punishment for breaking the law.

And obviously, the punishment fit the crime.

Hey, interesting side thread about chemo Drediock, had a similar issue with chemo myself. More about that in a second...

On the issue of the quad gangsta, Ive heard some idiotic actions taken by judges, but that is pretty stupid. Shows what a tiny, fugged up world the prostitute judge is living in. When it is the judges' time to be judged (by a higher authority), by the only true measurer of our time on earth, what do you think will happen?

I had some interesting times with chemo. I had a bad time, but honestly, not as bad as yours I would say Drediock. I had 3 months worth of human tissue WMDs, the one thing that I remember was the arrogance and impetulance of the fugging stunninghunk doctors at the hospital....may they contract the same illness and go through the same treatment, it is only fair.

rod64 = rude64

BTW, if you see me in the MA, make sure you tell me to piss off, I'll feel much better :-)

He was also out of the hospital I worked at at the time.

I gotta say my Doc was/is fantastic. not an ounce of complaint about him. You knew he truely cared and you werent just an insurance policy # to him.

 I literally saw him breakdown and cry when one of his patients finally died

And he isnt beyond suggesting promising alternatives if what he is doing isnt helping (my case inpoint)

I can respect that.
There is another Doc at the same hospital  I cant say that about.
who is one of the most aggorant POS I've ever met with the bedside manner of Oscar the grouch.
wouldnt reccomend him to my worst enemy
I do reccomend the same treatment you percribed for him though.X3

Actually while my time was Bad it improved quite a bit after I started with the pot.
Its the funcionability that was the worst mentally for me. Once I was able to function, feel like getting up and moving around I was alot better and one seemed to feed of the other.
Getting up and moving around made me feel better which in turn improved my disposition and so on and so forth.
Fortunately this was only about a month into my 6 month stint.

LOL in the end it owrked otu rather well.
Doc didnt want me working at the hospital because my immune system was weakened from the Chemo. so I got alot of things done around the house.
Easily had the best looking yard in the neighborhood
actually it hasnt looked that good again since.

but I'll take that tradeoff

There are other punishments, Martlet, especially for first time misdemeanors. Especially for a defendant that obviously couldn't use the firearm that supposedly presented a threat to the public by being in his possesion. Fines come to mind.

Judges are supposedly part of the system to insure lack of bias in the court system and to assure fair sentencing (without taking sides or exhibiting undue prejudice). This certainly doesn't seem the case here.

And yes ... disability where incarceration presents a threat to life SHOULD be a factor considered by the bench when it comes to exploring the MANY options of sentence handed down.

Most of the towns on the east coast only have stocks as a public historical display now. If everything was black and white in relation to right and wrong, then we're all due immediate execution.

But the litmus paper will be whether or not that community/social and government leaders take measures to prevent such in the future. If so, it certainly implies guilt, for if the judge and system truly isn't at fault, why should anything be changed? Let's bust down some old folk home doors.

Everyone who smokes marijuana does it to "feel better". Same with cocaine.

We should suffocate them all to death. Then when we run out of that sort of judicial fun ... we should kneecap all the jaywalkers and pour acid in their ears.
