Absolutely. I’ve been in favor of legalization (not mere decriminalization) for a very long time. I just dislike the smell. People going to prison for using pot (without injuring anyone else) is wrong. But this is still funny: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry of the Lawn Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 4 hours ago, Spockydog said: I'll tell you one massively good thing about decriminalizing weed... How many times have people been harassed, or even killed, by lying cops who claim they smelled weed on the black kid they just stomped to death or shot in the back of the head as he was running away. Officers Said They Smelled Pot. The Judge Called Them Liars. Courts in New York have long ruled that if a car smells like pot, the police can search it. But now, a backlash is mounting. I'm sure even Scot will welcome the day when cops can't use the odour of weed as a pretext to destroy people's lives. Part of NY state legalizing recreational use was supposed to include that odor alone could not be probable cause for a car search. This was passed in March 2021. The NYPD also just updated their policy to reflect that (finally! I saw an article on that earlier this week) but it's probably still easy enough for them to say you appeared inebriated or couldn't say your ABC's backward and get a search that way. Or just ask to search the car and lie about compliance being voluntary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always try some 5-4-5 breathing in that situation. Breathe in deeply for 5 seconds, hold for 2 seconds, and exhale for 5 seconds. The counting makes it impossible to really focus on how one might like to stick a cocktail fork on some hater anatomy. ironically, thats how i used to smoke my cannabis back in the day (but because I'm proper old school and grew up in a shit hole it was resin, not weed).

Heh. I remember in high school my dealers would always insist that holding it in and coughing got you higher. One of my dealers would give me this extended explanation about lung capillaries. All my friends bought it because he sounded legit -- just as most of my high school bought it when we made up names about the weed we were selling. Post-9/11 it was quite lucrative to claim the weed came from Afghanistan instead of Toronto! Anyway, I just rolled my eyes. Like, seriously, this kid who's an undergrad at U of R understands the physiology of lung capillaries? Dude wasn't a doctor, and frankly even if he was, acting like he knows holding in a hit then coughing will get you more high is dubious on its face. Well, at least the latter. Holding the hit in for a longer time intuitively seems like it will get you more more high.

DMC Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Oh yeah, also, fuck any piece of shit that calls smokers of any kind "peasants" because you don't like the smell. You know how many people far more wealthy than anyone reading this smoke? Get the fuck over yourself. Is smoking cigarettes anachronistic at this point? Sure, I'd say so -- and that's great! But anyone judging those of us that are still addicted in such an odious way can go back to Hitler camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace, Extat Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 If I were tasked with Frankenstein-ing the dessicated remnants of SW back to life... and I'm _NOT_ What I'd do... What I'd do is start the prologue/monologue bit explaining why Princess/Chancellor Leia is allowing Admiral Dalaa to come to ruined Coruscant to make peace. Peace! With the EMPIRE!?!?! Well, what could be worth it??? Pssst, they They ain't from around here. Dalaa knows the Grand Moffs topsykrets "Maybe your window turned out to be a door." ????

Prices are very reasonable and the food is tasty, so it’s a mix of a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. I was dressed very casually - jeans and a t-shirt. I’m at the bar, talking to a guy about my age. He asked me if I smoke. I said “no, but my boyfriend does” and he went to the bathroom with his backpack, and came out and put a small baggie in my hand. I could smell it when he came out of the bathroom, I swear!! I stuffed it into my little “It’s Cork!” cork coin purse that I bought in Portugal, and stuffed it into my black leather Prada bag. I gave it to The Doctor that evening, who smelled it, eyed it, and pronounced it of excellent quality. The odor has not left my cork coin purse, and also has soaked into the stash of cash I had in there. I’m now afraid to spend that cash anywhere other than a liquor store or strip club, and I must now wash the coin purse. Even then, I’m not confident of odor removal. And… that’s why I bitch about this shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMC Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Agree with Ty. Even if a proprietor smelled weed on the cash, it's cash, they won't care! At least there's no coke on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
