Subramanyam Vedam, 64, was recently exonerated for murder after being sentenced to life in prison in 1983
A Pennsylvania man who was recently exonerated after spending more than four decades behind bars has now been taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) and faces possible deportation to India.
Earlier this month, Centre county’s district attorney dismissed murder charges against 64-year-old Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam. However, shortly after his exoneration, Vedam was detained by ICE based on a 1988 deportation order tied to his now-vacated convictions.
Ok hippie, not everybody thinks it s fine to live with drugs
How do you live without caffeine or tylenol
That s a totally fair comparaison to crack
Indeed, and yet alchol and cigarettes are ubiquitous.
you know you don’t have to do drugs if you don’t like them, right?
And when the drug dealer bought illegal weapon with the drug money can I say no to his other criminal enterprise ?
Realistically, yeah.
You aren’t real
Just so you know I live in a country where weapon are illegals to posses and we have more firearm victim of drug enterprise than som part in the us
Which country
In europe
Fabulous country
What s funny is you have the opportunity to pick a lot of them where my pint will stand. Even the one that went on the road of legalisation isn’t it funny ?
This is such media propaganda. Drug dealers are criminals but that doesn’t mean they just do all criminal things. Most drug dealers are not thieves or scammers as that would hurt their business.
HEY! I sell drugs for a living and I very much not a criminal!
This is libel!
How they get their supply ? Nothing to do with organisation that are known to be violent and destroy innocents lives I’m sure
Alright well not everybody thinks it’s not fine to live with drugs. So there.
“Live with drugs”? Wtf are you even talking about?
Do you have any idea how many prescription drugs the average law-abiding American is on? Or how much worse for both the individual and society at large some common ones are than illegal ones?
You’re clearly speaking from prejudice and gaslighting rather than knowledge and wisdom.
We should string up the billionaire families that created and profited from the opiate epidemic, we agree on this.
I agree
Do you believe it’s fine for you to decide who gets to “live with drugs”? If the state says it’s okay to “live with drugs”, do you believe that you should be able to supersede the mandate of the state?
I certainly thinks illegal drugs have no benefits for society
I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but a lot of the world’s major cities and economies would grind to a halt if you magically removed cocaine and speed from the planet. Hallucinagens have aided in scientific discovery by helping people make connections they would never otherwise think of, not to mention the benefits of microdosing for mental health reasons. Do you believe art and music benefit society? Well, I guarantee your favourite artists have likely used “illegal” inspiration.
Does marijuana benefit some states but not others due to varying legality? Do legal drugs necessarily benefit society? What is the societal benefit of alcohol, or nicotine?
Whether a drug is legal or illegal is largely due to political posturing and nothing to do with societal or health benefits. And before you think I’m pro legalising everything, I believe highly addictive and debilitating drugs are the ones that should illegal or at least controlled. Ice, heroine, and (currently legal) opioid-based pain killers to name a few.
Na bs. Are you seriously arguing that society need his individual to take substance that damage their health to make profit is a good argument ? That artist being on drug is a gift to society ? The famous LSD help researcher 🤣🤣🤣
Bro is losing the ability to form coherent sentences. I think whatever he took finally hit.
Just not my native language but yeah nothing say gold argument than resorting to ad hominem
If you’re not gonna take him seriously, why should I take you seriously? Your response was literally “nah bs” without any supporting evidence. We have entered clown land. Do better or I will tell you that you smell bad, too.
Solar-system-wide, picometer-deep reasoning there, ace.
Also, “mamoth” is spelled with 3 m’s (“mammoth”).
Give one benefit
To start, a state of altered consciousness to help consider different viewpoints when reflecting about the choices one has made in life and the how that affects the constitution of one’s personality.
A lot of words to say I’m no longueur responsible of my action
One can alter their consciousness or perception thereof. That doesn’t release them from their responsibilities.
You’re flailing.
How many R’s in strawberry?
How many benefit in doing crack ?
Crack is not the only “drug” in the world.
And by the way, if we’re going to make drugs illegal in the way you want it, let’s start with alcohol and nicotine, the worst of them all.
That’s been tried before, by the way. It didn’t go very well.
Still haven’t give one benefit. Nicotine isn’t bad tobacco is. Alcohol is consume since 3000 year and is recongnize as an art and see how everywhere it s heavily legislated And by far it s not the worst
How about the legal drugs pushed by our cooperate overlords Johnson and Johnson that caused the opiod epidemic. Not everyone thinks whatever ever religion you belong to is theirs.
Since some corpo cheated the system to sell bad drugs we should totally allow criminals to sell drugs without restriction. Very smart
Some people like drugs. So don’t force you beliefs on others. We have drug criminals because there is a demand. I don’t use any type of so called bad drugs, but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna shit on someone else’s parade. Fuck, weed is illegal because some black people smoked it in the jazz clubs back in the days and white dudes were upset their daughters like the jazz clubs. To each their own. What about not threading on others? Is it only okay when the laws don’t apply to your choices?
Yeah it s kinda sad how I can simply replace drug by something like incest and since your argument is so stupid it will still hold up
Hey, if two consenting adults wanna keep it in the family that’s alllllright Kinda like the royal family. That’s a similar argument some people have against the LGBT community, next thing they’ll be having sex with dogs. 🤦
Wtf ???
What do you have to say about JFK Jr then?
I’m happy you nor anyone you know and love has ever struggled with addiction. Must be nice
Making my point thanks
What’s your point then?
Drug trafic is a nest a of criminal activities having far worse result than simply consommation
Are you referring to organised crime drug trafficking or just street drug dealing? Street dealing is usually only done to feed the dealers own addiction
Both
