I've never known 1 man try and name drop so many people, he seems to know or have met every gangster there has ever been yet when REAL gangsters and faces of the underworld call him out he deflects and ignores the questions. Shaun is the type of man to say "I gave Pablo Escobar his start". For a man that claims to have done everything, it's amazing he is free at all let alone alive to tell these tales. Something very fishy about it all if you ask me but that's just my opinion. Just search youtube and you'll see what I mean. Bare people have called him out and have proof behind their words.

      Richard Andrews I don’t know what kind of Prison that was but if you are PC in Cali it’s on sight greenlight. Super max is not general pop . And even level 4s here which are maximum security lock down are not 23 hour. You still get open day room 3 times a day. I’m not trying to argue can only tell you what goes on in Cali which is what he was talking about. I’m not even sure if he did time in Cali but the experience is similar.

      DizzyAaron sounded like Arizona. Super max is 23 a day. In Texas They Change That To 24 For Days On end Just By Saying Short Of staff. What You Describe Is Medium Custody Here. Pc protective custody? They Are Locked Up Here.

I had to go back to school, I was in class on the top floor and got the urge to jump out an had to leave school. I'm 38 now and I still get panic attacks and suicidal thoughts from it. The saddest thing was that it was my brother that had bag of them in his room. He was taking them and selling them. He is in and out of prison to this day. I've just learned to live and get over it

      no you're right, regulate and educate, but also give a user license for each drug, if you wanna do this drug, you would have to see a doctor, a psychologist, pass a few hours in courses, and do several drug experiences with professional ; then we give you your license, but you won't be allowed to give drug to people, just use it on your own ; and if you consume too much you will have to see a psychologist again, and if you sell their will be no mercy ; I'm sure this would work great ;

      Thing is that already happens when its illegal. If someone wants to cook their brain they could do it legally or illegally with alcohol or MD. At least if its legal they stand a chance of getting help and supply can be monitored. Furthermore, decriminalizing will allow a better study of the chemistry and it may be possible to counteract some of the side effects and minimize damage. Now MD has negative effects but the extent, duration and required dose to achieve lasting impairment is less clear, also the extent of these effects while not ideal are not debilitating with a slightly lower score than average on some memory tasks after recent or prolonged use. Now most of the fatalities associated with MD are related to them being laced and or allergic reactions, very rarely overdose. I say this because while there may be effects from MD its worth legalizing it to save lives as these things shouldn't happen in a regulated setting. Finally it is not for the state to dictate what you can do with your own body, similar to abortion rights. Part of freedom is the ability to ruin or end your own life if, how and when you choose. It is not the states' job to coddle, for 'Big Brother' to keep you completely safe from yourself by restricting your freedom. Sorry for the 'freedum' rant.

    • @JAYGO305

      CIC320 terrible idea. Ecstasy is an extremely harmful drug, which has killed so many people. I always here on the news and from people around me about people dying from it. It literally chemically dissolves your brain. There are 4 people who I know who took only 1 tablet of ecstasy and nearly died. I’m sorry but legalising it will make it worse, because it’ll make people who would’ve never tried it try it because it’s now legal, and the people who did it before would carry on doing it illegally because that’s what they’re used to. I always hear people say about government regulation. Why should the government have to spend money and time regulating ecstasy just so people can get high? Plus, ecstasy is ecstasy- even with regulation it will cause harm because it will still have the chemicals in to cause it. There might be too many people doing it now, but legalising it would increase that number tremendously, with no good outcome. Finally, a lot of people use Switzerland to back up theirs point. The uk, USA, and most other countries are completely different from a place like Switzerland. I’ve seen what drugs can do to people, and legalising it would just make everything worse.

    My God that was a wild ride. I’m glad he’s okay. Jail is not a fancy place.

    Shaun believes Cody Lachey, aka Craig Langley, and blocks any negative (truthful) comments about him which concerns me.

      street price for a disco biscuit or white elephant back in '93 was about £15 a piece, the price dropped over time with the arrival of doves and mitsubishis but so did the quality. I believe that's all changed now, but the $3 he paid at the time sounds about right.

    Shaun got caught when he least expected it - over a year after he quit distributing drugs.
    This goes to show that the dangerous and illegal lifestyle will eventually catch up to you.
    It doesnt matter if it's a day, week, month, year, 10 years.. eventually you will get caught

      So tell me, what did society win by sending this guy to jail?

      Wrong. I know guys in LA who have millions smuggling marijuana in the 70s and 80s who retired and have lived in luxury since retiring decades. The rule is you hear only of the ones who got caught.
