Jocular Look @ Today’s News || Happy Halloween, kids — here’s some cocaine!

For parents in Royton, England, it was almost a case of more than just intense sugar highs from all that Halloween candy keeping their kids up. Police have arrested a 33-year-old man for allegedly handing out baggies of cocaine to little trick-or-treaters. Two bags of cocaine were recovered after parents alerted police, and thus the children’s experience with this class A drug was postponed by at least a few years. It is not clear whether the packets of drugs were given to children on purpose or by accident, but we wonder if some parents would have been happy not to report this “trick” and simply take the spoils as part of the Mom & Dad Tax on candy.

Wait so let me get this straight this guy  gave these kids cocaine but he did not:

1. Wear  priest Collar
2. Charge them money
3. Sodomize them
4. invite them to search for candy in his pockets having moment before cut them out (the pockets)

So whats the harm? If Kids are going to be the leaders of a better tomorrow shouldn’t their exposure to real world issues take precedence?  We spend million here in the states for the war on drugs. The money we spend allows us to ignore the sovereignty of other countries and use a special resource to police the populace. Who can forget Oliver North using drug money to sell Arms to Iran,  about 20-30 yeas after the US tag teamed with Great Britain to topple a democratically elected government in Iran because of a want to nationalize the petroleum industry. Cocaine allows us to wield influence over Latin America so why shouldn’t these kids take some blow?

I got one two words Steven Seagal,

Seriously

The cynicism in this article made me shake my head:

and thus the children’s experience with this class A drug was postponed by at least a few years.

That sums it all up there is no need to comment after that. When I read that line I knew all I could do was tell a few jokes because that was it.
