Syringes are illegal here only if they are accompanied by illegal drugs. I have several right now i use to treat the animals i own. By themselves they are suspicious but not illegal. However if you have illegal drugs or some type of residue i usually am able to get a paraphernalia charge to stick. In fact clinics have given out clean syringes in exchange for older ones to try to cut down on disease in the recent past. Just depends on where you live and the local laws. I confiscate them if possible, i really hate finding them when i am doing a pat down for weapons.

It is illegal for anyone to possess an unauthorized syringe, at least in my state.

Wormer dropped the big one…. errr, Wade dropped the big one… Actually at this point it is all up from here….

Gutted, and rebuilding… down for sure…. True fans are never out… all the losing will make 2014 more enjoyable…

SAD, we have to finish 60 games under 500 to rebuild.

I literally cannot remember the last time I heard some good news about the Astros. Talk about a team down in the dumps.

Don’t tell Euris Quezada, but getting suspended-for-syringe club isn’t all that exclusive
