Sounds like a fun weekend.
Drugs and guns do not mix.
Sure they do. There's even a government alphabet agency that mixes them together.
Can't be wrong if the government does it!
Don't do cigarettes and guns, sinner.
How about cigarettes and flamethrowers?
Well how else are you gonna light em? You're not some bic toting commie, are ya?
You light your next smoke with the previous one like a real man.
Monkey fucking.
What did your friends call it?
He was docked there since August 23. Seems he likes his women drugged for extended periods of time. 😕
I bet he's really good at anesthetics.
I bet he was also one of thoss docters that would give ibuprofen for serious pain, becauses drugs are baaaad.
He can't be THAT good. One got away!
I don’t think any of these things should be illegal
In and of themselves (just having drugs, guns and prostitutes)? I agree. But depending on what was being done with those things (except maybe the drugs), I could see some shit that definitely shouldn't be legal. Human trafficking not least withstanding.
Right, but I’m assuming those hypothetical charges would have been laid as well if they were real?
Why would they not charge him with the worst of the crimes if that was the case?
Sometimes they start with 1 or 2 while building up the case for the bigger ones
They would charge them with as many things as they think would stick. Although I do think you're right, in that the headline would go for the more sensational crimes, if it was the case.
No, the drugs too. Giving someone drugs without their consent is never OK. All 3 of those things can be used in ways that shouldn't be legal.
Who said they were prostitutes? These are just ladies, partying with a wealthy dude, you can't prove shit.
I feel like the line between prostitute and women who have sex with 69 year old guys who have money and drugs is pretty blurry. Then again, I don't really have a problem with sex work and don't think it should really be considered a stigma or insult.
What about the guns and drug trafficking? Good luck with that kind of defense.
“Your honor I was only playing with the drugs, you can’t PROVE that I was trafficking them!!”
Lulz!
You can be a drug trafficker if you buy a weed brownie in a legal state and drive to a stupid state.
Correct. Which is a good reason to not do it if you want to avoid prison.
what's the point of going to med school otherwise?
I wonder what the hull on something like that is made out of? I feel like it's too big to be fiberglass. Steel plate is obvious, but what grade? I don't think a yacht would use A36, but I just don't know.
