There is no grey area in the law.
If you are caught selling any substance and representing it as an illegal drug, the penalty is the same. Worse, if someone had died as an alergic reaction to unknowingly taking paracetamol, you'd have been on a manslaughter rap.

Excellent!
Thanks to Dick, we now have an opportunity to observe the correct usage of the word 'sanctimonious'.

You sanctimonious twat.

This doesn't really answer the point though, does it?
How come your mate made bail on 600 tablets (in my experience, he'd have been banged up on remand straight away)? How did he escape prosecution, if, as marcoosa points out, the penalty for selling a substance and representing it as an illegal drug is the same as the penalty for knocking out proper pills? Finally, why do you feel it necessary to lie repeatedly on the internet?

Interesting...
The last question you ask, negates all your other queries.

If you feel that everything as described is completely untrue, then why do you demand so many answers? What is the point of aksing repeated, detailed questions regarding something that you believe is a fabrication?

Are you that bored or that stupid? I supsect the latter.

It's a rhetorical device
the most famous example being used by Cicero (In Verrem). Still, nice superfluous comma in your first sentence, I'll let you off.

I've been busy comparing Cicero's inquisitorial technique with that of Columbo off the telly
I should really go back to work.

Utilising Cicero is never worthy of points.
He's an unholy cunt.

Well Verres may very well agree with you
However his lolatics had style

Classics-based slayings: best of all the slayings. Fabulous work.

usually most drugs charges result in bail
unless there is a real risk of absconding or violence associated with it.

I've known people caught with much more than 600 pills, and with more serious drugs that get bail. Most were jailed at trial, however.

You must be in a drugs gang
Do I have to pay you money not to break my legs?

Feel free to if you like
but it really isn't necessary.

Hmmm
Maybe the people I know had previous. Or maybe a shit brief. Or maybe they just looked like wronguns. Probably a combination of all three.

Do you have a statutory reference for that,
because it sounds very much like bullshit.

And while you would be correct that he would be looking at a charge for gross negligence manslaughter, the sheer stupidity of someone with an allergy to paracetomol taking unknown pills in the knowledge that they don't come from a licensed manufacturer and are subject to no form of quality control whatsoever would make them a good candidate for a Darwin award if they carked it.
