Introduction

I'm told it's customary and polite to make your first post an introductory one.

So, here goes.  Hi!  I'm Kasey.  I'm full of shit ninety-nine percent of the time.  It's the one percent that I'm not that should worry you.

We are here to explore the human condition.  By that, I mean all the things that all of us think or worry about.

Oh, and welcome!

Justice and my personal dealings with police officers.

He was basically the local weed dealer. No evidence was presented that he sold any other drug. On the day in question, he met up with someone at a gas station to sell an ounce of marijuana. The team of police officers, and yes, there was a team of them set up the sting.  Around 5..maybe 7...Both exits were supposed to be blocked to prevent escape. One police officer was not in his designated place, so the exit that was supposed to be blocked was not. The police officer did not block the exit, he pulled up to the gas pump.  (This is relevant, just bear with me) Anyway, our suspect pulled in and realized in a hurry that he was about to be arrested, so he ran. There was a police officer that was in f
