Atlanta criminals prefer cocaine over marijuana
May 29, 2009 at 10:23 am by Andisheh Nouraee in NewsAccording to the Office of National Drug Control Policy, 60% of all men arrested in Atlanta in 2008 tested positive for an illegal drug.
Atlanta’s percentage of arrestees peeing dirty is actually on the low-end of the 10 major cities surveyed.
But get this, according to USA Today Atlanta is the only city in the survey where cocaine is the most popular drug among those arrested.
In the other nine cities survey, marijuana is the most popular drug among arrestees.
Question: Is there a worse job in the world than jailhouse urine specimen collector?

Atlanta is the new HQ for coke.
For Coke, also.

Wouldn’t our ancestors be proud to know that we have to pass a urine purity exam to be a ditch digger laying sewer pipe, a butcher, a teacher, a college student, a gov’t contractor, a high school student, a human in america, etc. Yep, we’ve come a long way. Now, how do we get back?
