This past Saturday my wife and I went to a family get together in Maryland, up close to the Penn. border. As we were driving home to Baltimore, we were pulled over for a broken tail-light. As I was searching in the glove compartment for the registration, the cop came over to the passenger window and shined his flashlight into the compartment. He stopped me and asked "what is that green colored object under the i-pod"? Right then I realized my bowl had been seen. The cop asked who it belonged to, and I had to think fast. I could have told him, I had no idea,but then he would arrest my wife, as it was in her car. So I told him it was mine, and I used it for medical reasons. He asked for my medical card ( which I don't have), because in Maryland, you still get busted. To look at me, any moron could see just why I use pot. After cemo and the loss of most of my lung due to the cancer, I'm lucky to weigh 110lbs. He didn't need to know that I've enjoyed smoking pot for over forty years. Now I've become one of those statistics of a foolish drug policy that targets pot smokers. A policy that,I believe, needs to be changed from the bottom up. All the replies I have gotten from the politicians I've contacted tell me that the sources outside of Washington that do not want to see legalization of marijuana have got allot of Washington in their pockets. I believe,We The People, are still in charge of what is best for us.:sifone:
It wasn't just paraphenallia captian, the fucking pipe was full. I really hope the cop enjoyed it. It was decent shit.
Seriously, I think the cop should have given you the benefit of the doubt, especially if you're only 110 pounds. But, you are quite the awesome husband for not getting your wife in trouble.
Sorry about your luck. But if you do have a card, then can't any charges be dropped in court for you? I hope so. But at least you were a good man and didn't let your lady take the fall.
