MAN SPENDS 6 WEEKS IN JAIL AFTER VITAMINS MISTAKEN FOR HEROIN

NORTH CHARLESTON, South Carolina (AP) -- For six weeks, Malvin Marshall sat in jail because police thought he was carrying heroin in his pocket. Police didn't believe him when he said it was mushy vitamins.
On Monday, the charges were dropped. Lab tests showed he was carrying mushy vitamins.
And he doesn't stand a chance of suing them successfully.
No wonder some people support Assassination Politics.
(Personally, were I to be arrested and held on such false charges, I'd consider it necessary to kill those who illegally held me. Preferably from a safe distance, with a sniper rifle. But then I'm a right wing libertarian whacko.)
Why screw around with a sniper rifle when you can get Chinese clones of the Stinger missile for $700-800? Besides, they can come in handy when they send in the helicopters with mounted machine guns a la Waco. Mrs. Shirley Allen has been captured and is getting her mandatory psychiatric exam. Her family is celebrating, according to ABC news. Anyone think she will be declared sane? If so, I have some excellent Florida swampland for sale... Reality is a symptom of alcohol deficiency! ObTongueInCheekFearmongeringThought: How many Cypherpunks are vulnerable to this "psychiatric imbalance allegation" attack? Tim May is obviously an anti-social survivalist gun freak, (like me, but with a bigger ammo stockpile--I'm jealous) Vulis is obviously a closet bisexual deviant/pedophile (especially if he posts those "Timmy Mayonnaise" ASCII art spams), Bill Geiger is a rabid anti-government extremist a la McVeigh, and TruthMonger--need I say more? It only takes one disgruntled relative to "Allen" somebody...which in itself is a powerful motivation to engage in anti-social behavior.
