A good article about how ridiculous Federal criminal laws have become. An elderly diabetic man whose home-business was the importation, cultivation, and sale of orchids, apparently failed to file some required paperwork with Fish and Wildlife, and is spending a couple of years in the joint.

Kinda makes you wonder what laws YOU are running afoul of without even knowing it.

Wait...are you questioning Nanny? Nanny knows all. Nanny knows what is best for you. Nanny doesn't allow you to ask questions.

Shut up and let Nanny take care of you.

When will people learn you're much better off doing armed robbery than importing flowers? If you do armed robbery you'll not be facing federal charges and will likely be out within 6 months.

Honestly, people do less time for Manslaughter (as in KILLING SOMEONE) then they do for getting caught with 10 hits of Acid..

Seriously f'd up..
