Grandma did not commit murder. She sold some weed. Kindly stick to the subject or I am out of here

She broke the law. You may not like the law, but she broke it and she had been on probation before.

Your main defense of her was this,

And when Grandma goes to jail, I'll bet it will have a great effect on her grandchildren. "Where's your grandma?" "Jail."

As I asked you, should grandmas be exempt from the law?

I tried with you, but you insist on changing the subject. Yesterday I got four loads of laundry done while you were dancing around the issue. Today I think I'll change the water in my aquarium. Have fun debating by yourself. Think of it as masturbation at your keyboard. Lots of people are into that; maybe you will finally find your calling.

You are correct on this point. Grandmas are not exempt from the law.

Everyone should be treated equally under the law. I realize it doesn't bother you, Dane, but for the benefit of any lurkers out there consider this:

Under the proposition that everyone is (or should be) equal under the law, if the prospect of putting a 72 year old grandma in prison for 5 years over 4 ounces of pot doesn't seem right, then putting anyone in prison for 5 years over 4 ounces of pot isn't right, either.
