(he he) Hi Mark. You just had to come and look didn't you. I actually consider you one "of us" rather than "one of them", plus you "fight" fair and have some sense of humor. So this post is not to anger you or argue. Merely discuss. It appears to me, maybe I'm wrong, you seem to have an extremly strong trust in your government to, as long as you are fair and honest, for your govt. to treat you the same way. If that is true, please give me your opinion (and anyone else can give their's also).
This is only one such situation I know is absoutely true. It is illegal to sell marijuania in KS. But IF you decide to sell it, you are required by state law to buy a "tax stamp" from the state. But even after and if you buy such a stamp, it is STILL ILLEGAL TO SELL MARIJUIANA IN KS. So even if you possess such a tax stamp, if you are caught selling marijuana in KS you are going to prison for a few years for a felony. Now if you are caught selling marijuana in KS WITHOUT the tax stamp, you will be charged with the felony of selling marijuana PLUS you will be charged with not having a tax stamp. Now I am not sure about the rest of this, but I believe not having the tax stamp is a felony also (I should probably check). But if that is true, then you can be charged with two felonies at once for only one transaction. If true this gives you two of the three strikes and you go to prison for life. I do not use or sell illegal drugs, in fact my job requires me to have a drug test and background check every so often. But doesn't this tax stamp thing sound at least a LITTLE unreasonable to you? Kind of like a bank robber getting caught for robbing a bank and admitting yeah, I did it and am willing to take the penalty. And then the police saying, well you didn't have a "Bank Robbing Stamp" so that is another felony we will charge you with.
When guns were invented everything changed. For the first time in the history of the world a frail woman had a chance to sucessfully defend herself and home. My dream is that one of the anti-gun nuts will need a gun for defense and be unable to have one because of their own actions.

Seems if they catch you selling drugs and you dont have this tax stamp, they confiscate everything you own and if you have it, they just arrest you and leave your home and other stuff alone.
Makes one want to go out and obtain one doesnt it.[:0][:D] That way law enforcement knows who to watch, as to who is selling drugs.[:o)]
I bet other states have the samething, only in a different form.
