Federal Prosecutor Says DOJ’s New Focus On Drug Crimes Will Target People Wearing ‘Heavy Gold And Chains’

Posted By Alex Pfeiffer On 11:31 PM 05/25/2017 In | No Comments

A federal prosecutor said Thursday that the Department of Justice’s efforts under Jeff Sessions to aggressively prosecute drug crimes will target people wearing “heavy gold and chains.”

The attorney general gave a speech in Memphis where he touted his recent charging memo that rolls back former Attorney General Eric Holder’s policy to not charge many drug offenders with mandatory minimums.

And it's also quite easy to visualize "heavy gold and chains" -- real or fake gold -- becoming a fashion, just to mess with the cops.

What a lamentably stupid thing for that guy to say....

It may have been dumb for him to SAY that.

But the policy itself doesn't sound like a bad one to me.
I sense it could become quite productive.
He should have just kept it quiet.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
