NO AMOUNT OF DRUG TOO TINY TO COUNT
Sure, it's a shame Allen Richardson had to return to the U.S. to
finish serving his jail time.
But why does the media keep making the point that "just $20" of LSD
was sold to the undercover police officer? Are they implying that
such a small amount wasn't worth the bother? That's how most of the
street drugs are sold - in small amounts. How much did he sell before
he was caught?
Small amounts turn big profits for the drug lords, and turn into big
headaches for the users.
