Good job catching Rankin's drug kingpin. Supplies of meth will soon dry up.
I live outside Mississippi. Rankin County...Is that the same county that's become famous for chest-freezers placed roadside to serve as garbage pick-up containers?
I would never use drugs but I do believe GROWN ADULTS should make that decision for themselves and not the government.
Mandatory death sentence for drug dealers.
That sounds good in theory, but this conduct negatively impacts the most vulnerable...children...infants...
Spoken like a dyed in the wool libertarian.
@4:17 your right I’m libertarian or classical liberal. NOT liberal like democrats
as they say in rankin county...................meth..its whats for breakfast.
It would be better if the cops bust the dealer on the first deal. If the dealer then causes an OD, the blood is on Richland’s hands.
