maybe pot is not for people who have fetal alcohol syndrome

I don't think pot is for or against anybody. it just is.

But it's up to the individual to decide if they enjoy smoking pot or not and to know when enough is enough... that can be a trick.

Murder trial here in SanaTo last week,
gives me the eye witness blues news

But it's up to the individual to decide if they enjoy smoking pot or not and to know when enough is enough... that can be a trick.

Individuals with fetal alcohol syndrome do not have that knowledge Cecil. Or so I have read. Poor impulse control. Emotions of a ten year old.

Accountability for killing starts at Estrada’s home
Veronica Flores-Paniagua -

It's in our community's nature to be optimistic, to want to give others the benefit of the doubt.

So it wasn't entirely surprising that, early on after the death of Viola Barrios in April 2008, while some were aiming barbs at her accused killer and his family, many hung on to the hope that a mother and father in our midst hadn't spawned a monster who could kill a defenseless old woman.



In Thursday's testimony, we also learned that Estrada's parents refused to continue medical and psychological treatment early in his life when it became clear their son had problems.

Most disturbing, however, was Dorothy Estrada's dismissal of the suggestion from her son's attorneys that the young man suffered from fetal alcohol syndrome and the implication that his delinquency may have had a congenital basis. Defense attorneys spent the better part of Friday laying out that element of their case in hopes of sparing Estrada the death penalty.

While acknowledging she'd consumed alcohol early in her pregnancy, she told jurors about fetal alcohol syndrome: “I just don't think that's something real.”

It was her one shot at taking the blame, at pleading for her son's life. She failed him yet again
