And then then give you 25 years for stuff you didn't even have in your home, and they didn't even have a warrant.

No. Of course this would not be "fair," and my heart goes out to any innocents who are wrongly abused in this way. Unfortunately, a great deal of this world isn't fair, so we have to so what we can with the hand that's been dealt us. The suggestions of organizations to join, organizations trying to fight such unfairness for *everyone* on whom its visited, is a good one. Spreading one's story--with true, verifiable details--is another.

It sounds like you are referring to this country's highly unfair drug policies. There was an attack made on a man who was under *suspicion* of possessing marijuana. The man was savagely beaten, tortured, and eventually killed, and his wife happened to get a lot of it on tape recorder, and the police officers received only a few years in jail.
If you would like to do something about this problem - which results in the USA having more prisoners for drug convictions than western Europe has prisoners altogether, and prevents people with minor drug charges from receiving financial aid while murderers and rapists do not have this restriction, among other disgusting things - then you should join MPP. You can check them out at www.mpp.org - they are working for a sensible policy towards drugs. The most dangerous risk you take by smoking marijuana is going to jail - the stuff is non-toxic.
Of course, if you are referring to something else, such as terrorism, then the obvious answer is a resounding NO, and if you agree with me, then you should join the ACLU or another such organization, who are working towards the fair treatment of all human beings.

something tells me that you left a lot of things out of this statement of yours while you are looking for our sympathy. There are three reason for a task to do that.
1. Is they are looking for drugs
2. Is they think you are a terrorist
3. You are guilty of counterfeiting
And 25 years is what they give someone for counterfeiting or for selling drugs................................
And you are lucky that your entire family is not locked up with your guilty butt...................................................
