Ill start by saying Howard your a week minded punk. I mean really, you feel safe froms what? Drunk drivers. Hahhhh what a joke. Have you failed to recongnize all the bars and stores that sale and serve alcohol in this state. The only reason its unlawful to make moonshine is because its an untaxed product and thats retarded. Let me run this dowmething to think about lik Howard here. I can grow my own garden and eat or sell them. Im not paying taxes on them but they are not busting me for it.
If you are going to arrest this man and make his life hell and family suffer then be fair about things. Go and arrest every one who sells and serves alcohol and shut those asstablishments down or come and bust me on my crop of veggies. Quit taking from the people of this state and give a little. Ju
st being real people. Step up and speak your mind.
that isn't very texan of the cops
