cannabisnews.com: Above The Law Above The Law Posted by FoM on November 22, 1999 at 09:21:15 PT By David A. Nichols Source: Arizona Daily Star Re: the Nov. 15 National Brief titled ``Special treatment denied.'' It was noted with some interest by a couple of the peasants out at F.C.I. Tucson (Prison Row on South Wilmot Road) that the new elite are, as aristocracy should be, subjected to a different set of laws. Twenty-one-year-old Morgan Grams (son of Sen. Rod Grams, R.-Minn.) was caught driving a vehicle in which 10 bags of marijuana were found (weight of drug not reported). Grams, an adult, but a scion of one of the ruling class, was taken home but not charged. In the vehicle with him, as a passenger, was a 17-year-old peasant. He, of course, was charged with possession of nine of the bags and was punished at a juvenile detention center. The tenth bag of marijuana, found directly under Grams' seat, magically was not counted. This is but one of many such incidences involving either members of the ruling class or their ``get'' who are treated differently than we peasants. But that is how it is supposed to be, is it not? I mean, what good is it to be a member of the new aristocracy if you get treated like one of the slaves?David A.

They are "allowed" to step over rules, aviod laws, steal, murder, lie, or whatever they have to do to get their message spread to the world. The slave morality, consisting of peasents and normal or different people, must follow the rules by the books and do what they are supposed to do and not interfere with anyone else. It's amazing how some of Nietzsche's philosophies are being practiced by the United States Government.
