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.
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
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.
