This is so absolutely predictable, it doesn't even really deserve comment.

Oh no. it's too late!

Oink !

Pretty soon kids with cap guns (do they make them anymore?) will be indicted for assault with a deadly weapon.

While meth is nasty stuff, using a "nuclear or chemical weapon" statute is beyond ludicrous.

"I think it's up to the legislature to decide whether the law is `woefully insufficient'," Clary said. "The DA is charged with enforcing the laws on the books, not as he wishes they were."

NOT AT ALL do I have any sympathy for meth lab criminals, HOWEVER, never underestimate the ability of Lawyers and Government to pervert law. Look for this to be the tip of the iceburg...

Watauga County District Attorney Jerry Wilson last week charged a man accused of running a methamphetamine lab with violating state laws involving the manufacture of nuclear or chemical weapons.

Christ almighty.

They just can't pervert the system enough, can they?

At the rate things are going, driving without a seatbelt will go from not an offense to not a primary offense to primary offense to "shoot on sight."

To link the drug's production to chemical weapons, prosecutors referred to the toxic and combustible nature of the chemicals involved in methamphetamine production. They said police officers and firefighters who respond to calls involving the drug risk serious injury.

The same can be said of gasoline, propane, hairspray, or rubbing alcohol. Nevermine starting fluid, which is spray ether. Shall possession of .0001 grams of propane be declared a terrorist act, possession of a chemical weapon? You can't be too careful these days. Better safe than sorry.

Why not go all the way and give them a secret trial followed by execution?

[Yeti]

Told ya so.

I knew this was the ulterior motive behind the "smoking pot supports terrorism" campaign as soon as I heard about the superbowl ads.

People who are not "terrorists" should not be charged under the "terror" laws. It's that simple.

Any DA who won't abide by those rules should be recalled.
