No license, on probation with a search clause…carrying all of that. HCSO has been so lax for so long that the kids of today have no training. They think that this is a perfectly acceptable way of doing business. So many idiots congratulating each other on their “brilliant success” when all it has really been has been a couple decades of zero enforcement and dumb luck… Now the court will reach a plea and let him go back to do more…Oh, Dumboldt County

Took the words out of my mouth. In the eighties if you had long hair or looked like a hippie you’d get pulled over and searched on site. I remember when I was eighteen an old timer told me to never commit a misdemeanor while committing a (drug) felony. That little rule would seriously screw with the modern day drugger’s lifestyle for sure.

Please send this fellow to a good rehab/drug program. He’s 30 years old and Seems like he is headed to prison and we will be paying his lodging on and off throughout his life. Not saying it’ll stick but he needs help.

Assets stocks and Bitcoin are all better than holding cash.

It doesn’t matter who’s in office. After 7 administrations ive made
Enough money in them all to say it’s not whos in office as much as who’s paying attention. Every decade has an opportunity. Are you asleep at the wheel when it arrives or ready to roll ??
