It is a big assumption that intent to sell and intent to purchase are treated with the same severity especially given the fact that in the Tefero case it is impossible to know the exact nature of the purchase. Me purchasing a bud of pot from a friend for 3 bucks is not a felony. Without specifics there is only assumption.
Not assuming that, but in this case that is what happened. And Tefero obviously was talking about a lot more than that if, as his wife said, this was going to be one last drug deal to set them up for life.

I see a reason. Sometimes drug laws are intensified given their percieved ineffectiveness to widen in scope.[/quote]

Could be, except there is nothing in a google search that shows this occured.

there is no "mostly unique;" thats like saying "sometimes always," its an oxymoron - its either one or the other.


The result:

By the mid-19th century unique had developed a wider meaning, “not typical, unusual,” and it is in this wider sense that it is compared. The comparison of so-called absolutes in senses that are not absolute is standard in all varieties of speech and writing.
