LAW-BREAKERS SHOULDN'T EXPECT ANY SYMPATHY

The law regarding possession and/or sale of drugs within a school zone or 
park was written to protect our children. Every one of the people arrested 
in the Great Barrington case that has been causing so much concern knew 
that what they were doing was wrong and that they were breaking the law. 
For people to now say that these defendants should not be charged under the 
law is complete foolishness. Who are they that they should be treated any 
different than anyone else?

Should the district attorney not go forward with these charges, I would 
predict a logjam in the courts of people filing motions to revise and 
revoke their sentences. So those of you sitting in jail take note and 
contact your attorney.
