Dopers on average have a higher IQ than the retard law enforcement officers whom have been indoctrinated with the lies which the government tells to support the war on drugs.

I think its ridiculus that cops are wasting their time on petty things like this. There is a lot more going on in Salina then a little marijuana and meth.

Here in Yuma County Arizona, We lock up all the dopers and get the tax payers to spend some cash to help these dopers. Salina is still the home of dopers from when I left there in 1976. Never want to live there, only to be buried. JH

You know...I think it's great that the drug problem is being taken seriously. But, what will happen to these kids? Will they just be punished and released back to the streets...or will someone offer them some help? I actually know one of those kids, and I know he's struggled all of his life because he hasn't had any good role models to show him the right way. I would guess that is the case with at least most kids who turn to drugs. Maybe we should think about how to help them, rather than make fun of and condemn them!

Good just Lt. Norton & company! In San Diego county you cannot get a cop to show any interest at all in arresting drug users or sellers. You have to sue them in civil court for violating your peace of mind!

This story was LOL funny. Maybe all the cops have to do is knock on one trailer door and drugs will go flying out of all the trailers in the trailer park. Saves time and money!

Drug raid yields unexpected results
Four arrests were made Friday for possession of illegal drugs and paraphernalia by the I-135/I-70 Drug Task Force, two of which were unexpected. Lt. Jim Norton, commander of the task force, said officers were serving warrants at trailer homes on Lot 43 and Lot 18 at 917 N. 13th between 1 and 2:30 p.m. Friday. An agent was stationed behind the trailer at Lot 18 when officers knocked and announced their presence, he said. Apparently, the residents of Lot 17 thought their trailer was being raided, as the agent saw two people throwing packets of drugs and paraphernalia out the back window or their trailer, Norton said. The owner gave task force members permission to search, and there they arrested John M. Coburn, 18, and Darin D. Gordon, 18, for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Occupants of the trailer at Lot 18 were not home, but drug items were found, Norton said. Charges are pending. At Lot 43, Jimmy Wells, 20, and Dena M. McDaniel, 28, were arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia and marijuana. Wells faces an additional charge of possession of methamphetamine.
