    It baffles me also. I've heard so many excuses. One is "Life is so hard my parents dont love me, I don't have stuff" etc.

    Soooo....... drugs are the solution?
    If I take that meth life will be good?

    Well, if a certain person gets elected in Scott Co., look for there to be quite a bit more activity on the drug bust front.

    Problem now is that the person currently holding the position is more involved in drugs and other illegal activities than those who would be arrested.

    Yep. I think both individuals that are running against Broadwater are highly qualified and would do an excellent job. I know where my votes going, but I will be happy if either one wins for that matter. I hope they possibly work together if either one gets it.

    I do know that here in Wise County, that the Drug Task Force is continuing to look at situations and individuals. It seems to me that the Court System is the problem. Whey they get to Court, oftentimes they are placed on probabation, and even unsupervised probation. What is that? Nothing. Just my two cents worth.

    I agree teach. I have a friend who is a probation officer in Lee,Wise and Scott and although he is covered up with probationer (maybe that is part of the problem) it baffles me the way some things are handled.

    I always hear that the prosecutors and/or the police don't go after the small fish, trying to catch the big fish.

    I understand the idea behind that, but it doesn't seem to really be working. So wouldn't it seem like its time to start killing off the small fish and let the big fish die off of starvation (so to speak).
    What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.

    Why not prosecute all if its against the law? You always here they are after the pushers, not the users. Go ahead and bust both.

    For the type of drug abuse that is so prevailent in this area, the "big fish" to blame is Medicaid and Emergency Rooms (with the exception of methamphetamines).

    Re: Sadness blankets our area

    Come election time in Scott Co, there will be another pic of Sheriff B. posing with a throng of pot plants...always seems to be anyways. I've always wondered if they kept the pot in storage to use as props for the pre election pic..lol.. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif[/img]
    ...And if you ain't down with that, I got 2 words for ya....
