RE: Power Corrupts and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely: What About Steem Power?
I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada. We're pretty relaxed here. I doubt any Vancouverites will be kicking in your door in the near future. : )
I wish I could say the same about the southern plains, here they kick in doors for kicks and giggles.
That sounds most unpleasant.
Vancouver is definitely a little different. If somebody is smoking weed, a cop won't even care. I have even seen them go up to dealers selling hard drugs and instead of making them eat pavement, they just confiscate the drugs, get their details, write them a ticket and send them on their way. Of course, this is not to suggest that bad things never go down here, but it isn't common. Vancouver is even a pretty big city and we have not much violent crime. Assuming you don't go looking for trouble, then trouble probably won't find you.
The people voted all drug crimes to be misdeamenors, but the republicrats refused to pass the laws backing up because the people 'don't know' what they did.
Real problems in the land of the free.
Q: How do you know if a politician is lying?
