If we can prevent the government from wasting the labor of the people
under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy. - Thomas Jefferson

Crack patrol

Its kinda like a light bulb joke, but the punchline kinda pisses you off...

Q: How many government agencies does it take to put a guy with $200 of crack on him in jail for 2 weeks?

A:
  • Special Assistant United States Attorney, Justin Lightfoot
  • the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Task Force
  • the Linn County Sheriff’s Office
  • the Cedar Rapids Police Department
  • the Marion Police Department
  • the Iowa City Police Department
  • the Clinton Police Department
  • the Iowa Division of Narcotics Enforcement
  • the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives
  • the Sixth Judicial District Department of Correctional Services
  • the Iowa National Guard
THIS is whyipaytaxes.
Sometimes, I find the story already put together for me: How Many Law Enforcement Agencies Does it to Take to Prosecute One Man for Buying $200 Worth of Crack?(reason.com)
