Can I Trade This Crack for a Lap Dance?
02/21/2012
At the XTC Men's Club in East Austin, Texas the answer is a resounding “No.”
It was the magical hour of 4 a.m. on a Sunday morning when Ricardo Luna attempted to buy a lap dance using drugs and was unceremoniously escorted out of the club.
It certainly can be argued that no one does his best thinking under the influence of crack cocaine at 4 a.m., but Ricardo's journey was remarkable by any standard of inebriation.
In almost no time at all, he went from dumb to ignorant to abusive to assaultive to jail.
He managed to kick a security guard on his way out of XTC. Once police arrived, Luna made several racial slurs toward the deputies.
He refused to enter a patrol vehicle until he was threatened with a Taser, and when he finally did get in ... he kicked the door from the inside.
Even with his legs secured, he managed to spit blood and saliva all over the deputies, and beat his head against the cage inside the vehicle before (mercifully) passing out prior to his arrival at Central Booking.
In gentler times Mr. Luna might have been described as “full of vim and vinegar.”
These times see him full of criminal charges, including various narcotic violations, retaliation and resisting arrest. He remains in custody on $45,000 bail.
Liberal, conservative or other, can we all agree that America is not ready for Ricardo's one-man “Crack as Currency” movement?
