I do feel sorry for Adam. While what he did is incredibly stupid, I pity him. His life is going to be very tough from now on and will probably spend a long time in jail. I agree with ED, joking about it is not my idea of fun either.
 | I've gotten lots of letters about Adam and his arrest. Ok, here are my thoughts.... Current mood: apathetic Category: Life
I don't really want to get into my personal feelings about Adam. I will say, I can guarantee that he is going through on hell of a mind fuck right now though. I am sure that he is in a heavy depression right now, probly has had thoughts of suicide, and is (my opinion) probly detoxing as well. People who have written me don't seem to understand that he is facing 20 years. I am not sure how many felony counts he has confessed to, but from what I read, he confessed to everything they were going to charge him with. The fact that he was shipping narcotics, a controlled substance, illegally obtained, is enough that he will be in jail for quite a while.
Just because it was "only" pills does not lessen the penalties. This pills need 2 doctors signatures and is written in triplicate, these are heavy narcotics he was dealing. He is not going to be going to rehab and then gets probation. I am sure they also charged him with resisting arrest or evading arrest, attempting to destroy evidence and all the other bullshit charges they pile on, because the guy paniced, threw one of the socks and tried to run.
So, joking about it is not my idea of fun, when the guy sees his life as it was, OVER!
I don't like our drug laws in this country and think that if people are gonna get high, nothing is going to stop them from getting high. I don't think that he would be facing 20 years if he had 2 socks full of plastic explosive in them. I think it is ridiculous that anyone should be looking at 20 years in jail for 2 socks full of anything that is not intended to kill other people, like explosives or a deadly virus or spore like Anthrax.
Stupid = Yes 20 Years worth of Stupid = No
My 2 cents..
