I, for one, feel SO much safer!

Yes, by all means, let's spend taxpayers money to defeat the drug-dealing scourge of our modern era, the autistic high school student who can be convinced to buy a bit of pot by a badgering undercover sheriff's deputy to pretends to be his friend.

Here's a story that'll piss you off.

His new friend, who went under the name of Daniel Briggs, was known as "Deputy Dan" to many students because it was so apparent to them that he was an undercover officer. However, to their son, whose disabilities make it hard for him to gauge social cues, Dan was his only real friend.

Dan reportedly sent 60 text messages to their son begging for drugs. According to his parents, the pressure to buy drugs was too much for the autistic teen who began physically harming himself.

The Snodgrass' son finally agreed to buy Dan the pot. Dan give him twenty dollars and it took him three weeks to buy a half joint of pot off a homeless man downtown. This happened twice. When Dan asked a third time, their son refused and Dan cut off all communication.
