The lowest of the low Edition

The lowest of the low Edition Hello, I would have said hello minions, except at this point I doubt I have too many left hanging around, waiting for their beastly master to make a rare appearance. I just felt like a rant today. I was doing some thinking yesterday, which then led me to read several reports and investigations which I found online. There are many groups of people that I lump into my lowest-of-the-low form of humanity. Today I'm ranting about police officers at every level who use and abuse illegal steroids, while at the same time sending people to jail/prison for marijuana, or other lightweight recreational drugs. I'm a fairly large man. I'm 5' 11" tall. I currently weigh around 230-240 pounds of mostly muscle. If I can stick to my diet, I can get that down to a fairly lean looking 210-215. It took me 25 years (20 in the U.S. Navy with random drug tests) of steady time in the gym to get this big, without the aid of anything more than the occasional supplement from GNC when I felt like throwing some money into it. I started noticing years ago though, that a well above average number of police officers are ridonkulously large, muscular men. I always had the suspicion that some illegal drugs must be behind a great deal of them. There just aren't going to be that many genetically gifted individuals who all just happened to stray into the same line of work. I won't even mention that Ronnie Coleman (8 straight wins as Mr. Olympia) is a police officer. Wait..... I just did. So, like I said, I did some reading. A casual goog search will get plenty of hits with articles about police being caught up in steroid stings. It's become such a common thing apparently, that the FBI has even been keeping an investigation going. There are plenty of excuses given. Most commonly the police say they need a tactical advantage over the criminals they are going after. It completely destroys their reasoning when our prisons are flooded with people who bought or sold marijuana, a natural drug which is arguably far less dangerous than steroids. One Doctor who was caught in a police related steroid case had hundreds of individual , and another expert estimated as many as 1/4 of police across the board are doping. New videos of cops using far more force than is necessary to put somebody on the ground, and then beating on them once they are down pop up on the internet every day. You can't help but wonder how many of those incidents are "roid rage" related. My opinion is that any police officer who has arrested somebody who ended up serving years in prison for marijuana use, should be in the next cell over if they had steroids coursing through their veins at the time. An illegal drug is an illegal drug. One article I read stated that police in certain districts are given regular drug tests, but tests specifically to look for steroids have been blocked repeatedly. Congress felt it important enough to bring sports personalities in for questioning. I would think it's more important to know how many drugged up, rage monsters are driving the streets, itching for the chance to handcuff somebody, and then body slam them face first into a car hood. So there's my rant. To all of the boys in blue who send people to jail just prior to going home to use their own illegal drugs, I say you are one of the lowest-of-the-low of humanity. |

Correction. Ronnie Coleman WAS a police officer (reserve) at one time. No longer. In fact... it appears he's in trouble with the law for being pulled over for a traffic violation and trying to use his expired badge to show that he was a fellow officer.

I have not noticed that in my area and I know a LOT of cops, including my current lover. He is a muscular guy but is vegan and doesn't take anything but medication for an underactive thyroid. That said, wow, do I hate it when cops abuse their authority. (Says the girl whose cop boyfriend drove 85-90 all the way to NYC and back this last weekend!  )***
