Police say that on February 2, 2016, both Kaylah Renea Jones, a 23 year old female out of San Francisco, and Donneika Utrice Markharden, a 23 year old female out of Vallejo, entered into Safeway and left with around 60-bottles of liquor and fled in a vehicle.

Another obvious reason to make alcohol illegal. Do we really need to tolerate any longer the violence in our neighborhoods associated with the sale and consumption of this drinkable drug? Wherever alcohol is sold there is violence, abuse, domestic issues, health problems, etc, yet it is advertised everywhere you look. The hypocrisy of the American drug war keeps these double standards alive.

Uneducated idiot! Do you ever remember learning about prohibition? Did not work and anyway people are going to steal what ever it is!

@ Educated Citizen:

It’s an obvious lesson in history that Prohibition only did more harm than good in America and elsewhere. The same goes for the current failed war on drugs. The point being made was that we have a double standard in this country: some drugs are legal, advertised and socially sanctioned (alcohol, nicotine, sugar) while most remain illegal and demonized. We should either make them all illegal or decriminalize them all.

If the drug in this news story was not alcohol and instead a chemical deemed “illegal,” conservative pundits would be using it as another classic reason to tighten current drug law prohibitions.

You really think that would work? Try this…. God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

@ 0321jarhead:

Try this: question in the first place why your God even made drugs to begin with (as well as animals like ourselves with brain receptors to experience those drugs).

We can easily keep the word God out of that quote or better yet, just ignore it. Just like the pledge of allegiance and on OUR cash monies, “In God we Trust”. I take the work God as being symbolic even tho I am an “atheist”. Even back in the 1970’s when I raised my right hand as I was being sworn into joining the U.S.M.C., the word God was thrown in there. Even in OUR judicial system that word “God” is present. So, in the meantime SUBHUMAN, try to except the things that you can’t change and be strong to change the things you can, because maybe, just maybe you will know the difference.

God has nothing to do with drugs or any other other harmful activities humans get involved with. God gave mankind free choice. Mankind makes the choices. If you want to blame someone other than mankind, blame Satan!

Pam, “God” has for centuries been said to be omnipotent and omnipresent, and that nothing occurs in reality apart from “his” plan. That means everything that goes on is due to god’s unchanging will. Your god creates good and he creates evil. We are all “his” meat puppets in this worldview, as “he” once said:

“I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.” (Isaiah 45:7)

P.s. Satan never kills anyone in the bible…besides tempting eve with fruit, his biblical reputation is pure.
