He thought he was ok because he was white with an anglo name.

the drug conviction involved a Xanax tablet being found in the backseat of his son’s truck. He says Curtis’ criminal history also includes a misdemeanor charge that stemmed from police discovering a handgun in the glove compartment of the car Curtis was driving, which was only registered to his wife, and an impaired driving arrest eight years ago

fucking idiot.

So he has a drug charge on his record, along with a weapons charge and a DUI. And yet somehow, he thinks that they should be trying to get rid of the criminals, not him.

I've never even had a speeding ticket, in over 40 years of driving, and I still wouldn't go to the States.
