Kentucky recently passed a smashingly splendid criminal justice reform law. Among other things, this bold new law loosens the state's draconian penalties for some minor drug offenses.
And now the drug warriors are complaining because the new law is making it too expensive to frame people for drugs.
Before this law, possession of any amount of cocaine or heroin was a felony. This law reduced it to a misdemeanor for very small amounts. The thoughtcrime guardians who support the failed War on Drugs cry that this means authorities will have to obtain more drugs in order to set up decoy drug deals to entrap folks for felonies.
Seriously. That's their complaint.
Why aren't the teabaggers up in arms about frame-ups like this not only destroying lives but also wasting the taxpayers' money?
