 Shrooom bust seizures cause Wisc Couple to commit suicide

[2a]

actually, all it said was, "All three faced possible years in prison," suggesting they hadn't been convicted or sentenced yet.

The Xibalba sent the ball towards the boys, who stopped it with Hunahpu's
yoke.
Then while everyone watched, the White Dagger came out of the ball, and
twisted and clattering all over the floor of the court.
"What is this?" said the boys. "Death is the only thing you want of us. You
summoned us, and you try now to kill us. Play fair you we will just leave. You
are bad hosts."

if you  want to do something that would actually be beneficial to the world, make oil illegal, legalize all drugs and let shit sort itself out for a few years

Sorry for them and all, but just for shrooms and weed they probably wouldn't have gotten very much time or anything.  There are people doing 10, 15, 30 years for drug offenses who don't kill themselves, so I can't really respect these people who killed themselves and would only have gotten a couple years anyway.  Of course, if you're already suicidal to begin with something like that could put you over the edge, but then the suicide isn't entirely caused by getting arrested, is it?

I mean, if you're doing that kind of stuff going to jail is always a possibility, if you can't handle that then don't do illegal stuff.

Wow. What is this or where is it from?  It's coolness and thoughfulness in a very tight package.

i dont see how you can call the ultimate refusal of a lifetime of ass/mind rape "mental shortcoming."

Well, how about setting up a substantial amount of marijuana plants in their house and seilling to undercover agents. Or giving up hope without even trying to raise awareness of their situation and get themselves a decent lawyer and PR-crew to fight for their lives and rights as human beings. Suicide is in most situations what someone does when there is no other way out. There was a way to avoid their situation in the first place (Setting up their business somewhere else than their home and makng sure they sell to trustworthy customers), not to mention not abandoning all hope before the trial has even begun. I don't see them as martyrs. Rather as cowards.

And now it's time to say what needs to be said: I have no real knowledge of the situation and I am in no way able to form an unbiased and intelligent opinion of their actions.

Casper is mouthing the word "coward" to me from the crack in his trunk. I'll just pop out and buy some duct-tape.
