Fetty Wap has found himself waiting to hear his sentence for possession of five hundred grams of cocaine. He is behind bars right now for violating parole. At one time, he had posted a half a million dollar bail. He threatened someone over the phone and it was back to the slammer.

But his craziness on records propelled him to modest stardom. The “Trap Queen” rapper/singer blatantly discussed street activity. The same kind of dealings that landed him behind the wall.

It won’t be until January for Fetty to fully know his fate. If found guilty he must do a mandatory five years in prison. The fullest extent is forty years.

FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Michael J. Driscoll said he wants the drugs off the streets. No he doesn’t. He wants the Fettys of the world jailed and reap major benefits for busting trappers and rappers for exchanging on the black market.

While the FBI is necessary and a proper organization in the government, groups like the Drug Enforcement Agency should be eliminated.

The FBI ought to focus on protecting individuals from actual crimes. Drugs are a scourge and an abomination…that should be legal to paying adults. There should be laws implemented to prevent people from operating vehicles or selling stuff to kids.

There ought to be strict rules but no taxes on drugs. The State should not benefit in any way except to protect contracts.

Fetty Wap might be the final example of how the United States dismantles the War on Drugs. Its horrific past destroying families and communities to leave widows, orphans and mothers and fathers without children, should never be forgotten.

Nevermind the hundreds of billions of dollars wasted and the thousands of lives dashed to live like Fetty in a cell. Remember that the people most wanted are melanated. Those that stay on the hook get football numbers and are sometimes fathers. Also, addicts have been in the grips of their dependency for decades.

Fetty Wap topped charts and he still could keep away from his past life. He still had to taste that one last run. For the FBI, they are so busy with drug cases that terrorists who plotting right now giggle to themselves. Another major attack on the United States is most likely at hand and the organization responsible for guarding rights has both hands up its collective behind.

When they finally realize that what they’re doing is a charade and a farce with serious and deadly consequences, it might be too late…again.

Drug dealers don’t have the greatest livelihood compared to the lifestyle promised by the streets. Most hustlers are mid level at best and must rely on small scams and runs to satisfy their worldly wants, needs, and desires. The kingpins enjoy a high life, sometimes literally. They eventually fall due to poor decision making and sour business deals.

Fetty Wap was a millionaire at the height of his career and then burned out because of the ongoing battle with the feds. He collapsed his performing career in favor of the streets. This is a particularly vicious sacrifice. He had everything going for him and he still could not keep it together.

As it stands, no one should be dealing drugs. It is not because people are dying from the poison. That is true and important but what is most crucial are individuals making grown up decisions to alter the chemistry in their brain. That’s up to the discretion of the buyer. The manufacturer, producer, seller should be unencumbered by the law for supplying what another grown up requests.

So Fetty Wap might see some years. Let his example reflect a shift in the abysmal efforts to stifle the freedoms of American citizens.
