I was like 16 or 17.
That is a really sad story. This should not happen in a first-world country, supposed leader of the free world...

Sounds like cruel and unusual punishment, a violation of... um... oh, what was the name of that old document we used to reference...?

The cigar-smoke in your face is police brutality and endangers your health. In 1 average cigar, there is enough nicotine to stop a person's heart.

If you do not mind me asking, which bible-belt state did this persecution occur in?
