Does Anyone Think That Something Like The 60's Could Ever Happen Again (In My Life Time Im 16 Right Now) I Think That Would Be Cool As Hell. Smokin Weed On The Street And The Cops Dont Care What A Life That Must Of Been...
It's not about weed. It's about love and freedom within it. Please don't make the mistake of taking only the drug shit out of hippie idea and don't become a bad example for all of our big family!
not to start anything.. but what peacfull pigs are you talking about..I met two peacefull officers in all the dealings I've had with the laws and I've had more than my share of encounters with them..The pigs in the Haight would bust ur head with their nightstick if they saw ya smoking and then tote ya off to city prison.. the law is the law to them n they take it seriously.. they'd (pigs) would go through the crowds of hippies on Haight St. with billows of smoke coming from everywhere the whole Street is reaking of 'maryjane'. Loud music is playing out of the sky, people are hanging out of windows and sitting on the sidewalks and in the street blocking the tourists cars from slowly driving up n down looking at the 'show' clicking their cameras.. or searching for their runaway child peering into the crowd with desprate eyes and mothers tears and daddies fears.. We'd cup our hands over the doob as the 'man' passed or we'd keep passing to the next head in line just in front of their noses.. it was like all the heads were intune and as the pigs got closer everyone was 'on' to what to do, dont panic just keep it going ..was like a cat n mouse game.. but it could get hurtful sometime if ya got caught.. Shameless
There was a time in Berkely after a series of smoke-ins at the city council meetings when smoking was considered less serious than jaywalking.The man was told to leave us alone.That doesn't mean they liked it,after all you have to have a certain mentality to want to be a cop in the first place.AnnArbor,Michigan I believe was the same way.
I do remember two beat cop ( Haight St.street cops) name od King and Christenson who would look the other way at small things like pot.. would would crack your head over sellin' heroin or crank.. They came into my pad once went threw every room gathering u pot pills hash and pipes and stuff like that and as they were leaving they just handed me everything and walked out the door.. they didn't bust me or even ask me who I was.. I was freaked out standing there with everyones stash like I took it.. omg I didn't know what to do.. I was the only one there at the time..I guess I was just a small fish and they threw me back.. but I did catch some weird vibs when the other folks got home n found me at the table with all their shit.. shakimg life a leaf.. Shameles
Its statements like these that only kill all hopes for another hippie movement. Theres been drugs all throughout history, its not just the fucking hippies that do the fucking drugs. Also, during the 60s, you dont honestly think that the hippies werent beaten for smoking on the streets, do you?
