[MD] Mayor's dogs shot dead by police, Drug War victim? *Update*

Mayor’s dogs shot dead by police, Drug War victim? July 30, 2008 - freeople.com
The Mayor of Berwyn Heights in Maryland’s Prince George’s County had a rude awakening. Apparently, a 32 lb. bag of marijuana was sent to his house addressed to his wife. A SWAT team busted down his door, shot and killed his two black labs, and held him for questioning for hours. The Mayor claims he has no idea where the pot came from. He also said that if the police would have just knocked, he’d have let them in.
Instead his two dogs are now dead and all members of his household are “persons of suspicion”.
Must I point out how incredibly ridiculous this event is? It demonstrates the lunacy of the war on drugs. In a somewhate related note, CNN today had a poll asking if marijuana should be made legal. Over 65% said yes. When will we learn our current policy is having the opposite of its intended effect? Maybe someday. Watch the news report of the story below.

Another one bites the dust. Atleast it was someone of some 'importance' so this story indeed has a good chance of causes some good ripples throughout the scene. Just a bummer it has to come to such a pathetic moment for anything to be done about it.

as much as i think PETA is mostly full of over enthusiastic pet lovers (i love animals but damn), this would be a wonderful thing to let them know about. they'd go apeshit over this and picket who knows what.

On the contrary, not a waste of weed at all - especially if this gets some media attention. If you think about it, sending large amounts of marijuana to high profile "straights" could go a long way to showing the unnecessary brutality of the drugwar!

You don't know PETA very well. They are money grubbing (at the top) hypocrites.

How could you shoot two black labs. Labs are the most harmless dogs ever. All they had to do was given them a tennis ball.

Although I agree with you completely, somebody (the courts and lawmakers) had to give the police permission to become paramilitary. I blame more than just the police.

What would happen if a bunch of growers sent all their processed kief, leaf and trim to all the mayors and political figures in the USA. That would be hilarious, the politico's would get a taste of how crazy the DEA can be when it comes to throwing people in jail for a plant. That might help them realize how crazy the war on weed is. Funny thing, the DEA can seize property and assets even without a conviction. Wonder if the feds are going to freeze this guys assets and take his home like they do to everyone else who gets Lbs. of weed delivered to their. What if the wife was using her house as a safe addy for a boyfriend or family member ? If anyone besides the mayor did this they would be in jail and the DEA would rob them of every penny, gangsters

Think of his poor kids. I love my dogs very much, and having to deal with authorities shooting my dogs, well I would be hard indeed to restrain. I would then sue the pants off those assholes for millions of dollars. No one fucks with me like that, especially if I'm the fucking mayor. I would dissolve the fucking swat team.
