Could They Put Snoop Dogg Away for about Ten Years, Please?

Snoop Dogg, the 35 year old rap artist, has been arrested yet again on drug and gun possession charges. Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, is a convicted felon and as such he is not allowed to carry a gun and carrying drugs is illegal regardless of who you happen to be.
Broadus was arrested after taping an appearance on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. He had drugs and a gun in his possession. This arrest stems from an earlier incident where he was arrested for having a gun and marijuana in his car at the Bob Hope Airport. Broadus has a court date of 12 December for that offense. He also has a court date on 4 December for carrying a deadly weapon (a baton the rapper claims was a prop) at the John Wayne Airport.
What is it with this idiot and airports? He was arrested in the UK when he and his posse got mad and broke a bunch of stuff at the airport. I am unsure about that case but he is probably not allowed in the UK any more. This guy is the embodiment of a gangster rapper. He was one of the people who begged for the life of Tookie Williams to be spared because the gangster, who murdered at least four people, had been a big influence in Snoop’s life. I guess exactly what kind of influence is now showing up in the acts and deeds of Snoop Dogg.
Here is how it stands:
- 1990 convicted of cocaine possession
- 1993 charged with gun possession. Pled guilty in exchange for three years probation and a promise to make anti-violence public service announcements
- 1996 Acquitted of murder following the killing of a gang member who was shot from Dogg’s car
- 2006 busts up Heathrow Airport, arrested and eventually sent back to US
- 9/27/2006 Arrested for gun and drug possession pending arraignment
- 10/272006 Arrested for carrying a deadly weapon, pending arraignment
- 11/29/2006 arrested for drug and gun possession, pending arraignment
Snoop Dogg is a convicted felon who has been arrested a number of times for carrying a handgun. He has also been arrested a number of times for possession of illegal drugs. Surely they have enough charges and incidents to send him to jail for at least ten years. This guy is still a gang banger who thinks the rules do not apply to him especially since he now has money to afford fancy lawyers. He needs to be tried and convicted of all these crimes and then he needs to get a long jail sentence. No more PSAs, no more probation, no more Mr. Nice Guy. This guy needs to be put in jail with all the other animals who do not know how to follow the rules of our society.
If Snoop Dogg was a white supremacist who had been arrested on charges of killing someone and for carrying drugs and guns, he would be put under the jail with no hope of release. The justice system needs to be not only blind but color blind. The color green (as in money) and the color black (as in poor oppressed black guy) are clouding the judgement of the courts. Dogg is wrong and he should have to pay with time.
If a judge fails to give him jail time and he ends up killing someone then the judge should be executed. That would make the next judge think twice before misapplying the law.
