  Too graphic? I almost posted it under DFO’s Strange Critters …

  Aren’t critters supposed to be “Cute & Cuddly”?

  I mean, I don’t look much different first thing in the morning, and I think I’m, dead sexy. ;-)

  Hey! You’d look like that too if you’d been probed for three months. “Seen better days”? I don’t think he’s seen daylight since he stumbled into Haight Ashbury and a guy handed him a bong and a lighter.

  That reminds me. Its happy hour in Boise. Ta ta.

  Not to throw a cigar in the punchbowl or anything, but in spite of Michael Clyde Ward’s problem with the law (at least), and his unfortunate mug shot, a blog making fun of people? As part of a newspaper’s website?

  Please reconsider.

  America’s Funniest Home Videos is funny, in part, because participation is vountary.

  This is not funny.

  I can not agree more with FortBoise. Not funny. Drug addiction and the drive to maintain that addiction often escalates to this level. I’m not trying to say it’s o.k.to deal dope, However after burying some close friends because of this Disease I do have a lot of empathy for these people. There, but for the grace of God go I.

  Sirens and Gavels certainly does not make fun of people, and I don’t make light of drug addiction. We posted a mug shot that’s a little out of the ordinary and because we’d already reported Mr. Ward’s address yesterday, the only new information was the mug shot. (And I should add, Mr. Ward is just a suspect. We don’t know if he’s actually addicted to drugs. Nothing’s been proven in court.)

  I’d have to agree with fort boise, and truly. At the risk of piling on, this is tasteless and unfortunate. Meg, your crawfishy explanation falls flat. It’s a fairly safe assumption that someone trafficking the government’s heroin is addicted to the stuff; else, why? You ridicule a man in his weakest moment, when he is suffering the most. He has a family. He is God’s child. He deserves better.

  If you would quit playing around on the Internet and investigate, you’d probably find that most of the real hardcore drugs coming into North Idaho are being brought there by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, in cooperation with local drug task forces. They either bring it themselves, or watch it come in. Then it has its effect on the community for a while. They watch some more, hoping to catch a big fish. If someone dies on government drugs, well, it’s all in a day’s work for the DEA and our local drug task forces. This is a serious matter. You’re all good reporters. This wiseacre journalism is below you. You have to start taking this drug story seriously. We the People are so deeply involved in drug dealing, we’ll never be free of it unless you act. Go deeper.

  P.S.

  Meg and Dave, I think very highly of you both. Please don’t consider this a personal attack. I come to debate news, is all. If anything, I give you a somewhat exhalted credit - thinking you are in a position to change the world, if only you’d try.
