Man I can't say for certain what it cost to cage a person. Numbers range from state to state and city to city beside the federal system. But can you imagine the impact it would have on the country if people kidnapped and caged for strictly drug charges were released and the money used to help them get educated and employed.

Citation?
To be clear, I'm looking for a citation on how many people (and what proportion of inmates) are actually in jail/prison strictly for drug convictions?
I can easily believe that a large proportion of those convicted of property crimes and various violent crimes are also using drugs or involved in the illegal drug trade. And I cannot find numbers, but get the impression from those I know working in various aspects of law enforcement and volunteering in our State prison, that it is fairly rare (not zero, but not a large percentage) who are in jail/prison for purely drug crimes.
(People On Parole For Drug Offenses In The US, 2013) Of the 853,215 people on parole at the end of 2013, 32% (approximately 273,029 people) had a drug charge as their most serious offense.
There are no clear numbers,
Not for the first time in the last couple days, I have the strong feeling you're beating around an argument you really want to make, but know can't be defended explicitly. If it's the argument I suspect it is, it ain't gonna fly. But, I could be wrong.
Also, note that prison populations rise at a rate higher than our population growth, and of course genuine (aggressive) crime has been decreasing for the last few years. Given the remarkable rate of recidivism especially for drug users, it's unreasonable to claim that more rigorous drug law enforcement is the causal factor for the drop in crime.
When you look at the lifetyle of a hobo/bum it is obvious that is about the most freedom in America one can have. No taxes, no boss, virtually on their own for survival, and the thought that some people want to mow them down in gunfire for their choice of lifestyle is lunacy. Pretty much the same as the day when beating up gays was overlooked because they were not acceptable. With the number of vets who are homeless, I am amazed at the hatred for the homeless. And that is exactly what it is hatred, a useless and dangerous emotion.
We do respond within limits, but there is no reason to stay here if you do not want to be here. Grape does not need to remove you, be responsible, remove yourself. If not try to work within the rules, note I said try.
Need a tissue brother?
Well at the very least we have another perma-ban test subject. Changing of the O to an I in the moderator's name is a classic!
That's my point. You can't remove yourself other than not posting.
I asked to be removed by the un-moderator, and here was my reply:
"There is no mean to "unsubscribe" as such , BUT there is a way to disappear.
First cease posting then change your settings per below:
Go to Personal Messages (PMs) - look to the far left column, scroll down to My Subscriptions -click Subscriptions - at the bottom right corner is a button titled "Empty Currant Folder"
Then look a bit further down on the PM page, left column and find My Account, General Settings - select "no" wherever required if you want no contact.
Hate to see you go though - you have been around since May 2006. You do know that you have the option of being "Invisible" - others will not know you are on line. Add no notice received of postings, you can still view AND could post if the mood struck you. You can put people on "Ignore". You can custom taylor what you get and how.
What ever you decide - best wishes and good luck.
Respectfully, Dale"
So I hope I get another violation for posting the contents of a PM.
look mate we all want more 2A supporters here on the site. But if you're hell bent on leaving then just leave. No one is making you post.

Its a little more complicated than that. There are 3 different people currently posting as Augustin. I'm only 1 of the 3, and none of us are the original Augustin. I wanted to unsub to stop the other 2 from posting here, and forcing them to open their own account.

I believe the moderator can confirm this by looking at how many different computers are being used.
How is that even possible unless you have given them YOUR password? Change your password!
I figured my words would bring out a shill or two.
Bro, you act like you have some monopoly on righteous anti-statism.
Not only have some of us been at it longer than you, some of us don't allow our puerility to taint the cause by association. Get over yourself and change your password to something random.
Otherwise, I call agent provocateur.
worst attempt at a ban, ever. F for effectiveness. D- for creativity. C- for entertainment factor.
I hope they get life. I won't hold my breath.
