I am 2 year older than your mom….as a matter of fact I will turn….turn, makes me sound old or something. Anyway I will be 60 tomorrow, hooray for Mark. Only Mark tokes I wish to hell they would legalize weed here in Fl. these politicians with their heads stuck so far up their ass the gotta unzip their pants to get any day light will not legalize weed. We just got medical marijuana this year, and the laws surrounding it are draconian to say the least. One that really sticks out is if you have a concealed carry permit, you loose the right to carry a weapon concealed, as a matter of fact you loose most of your 2nd amendment rights if you get a script for medical marijuana. I’m sorry, I think I’ll self medicate before getting a script for me to legally get high. Speaking of getting high, when I was a lot younger I smoked weed, in the Army I smoked weed, when I was stationed in Germany I smoked hash….I still love hash. But then when I went into law enforcement I stopped, overnight I stopped it was a bad thing….in my mind any way.
Fast forward some 10–15 years I am a disabled vet working for the department of corrections here in Fl. Well….I get hurt in a riot, I did get hurt in a riot which is why I’m so fucked up now. y best friend smoked weed, he brought me some as I knew, you know when someone smokes weed you just know. Told him how I now have this never ending pain, I asked him did he get high? There was that awkward silence before answering yes, have any with you. He did, it was the first time in over a year and a half that I wasn’t in pain. Had to stop due to the state wanting to do piss tests all the time. Fast forward another 10 years and I have friends who smoke weed they would help me out from time to time and then again nothing for a couple years then I get a little here and there its never a lot, enough I could save some but then I don’t smoke a lot only when the pain is really really bad and nothing else has worked. Any how I can usually ask around and get enough to help me out for a couple weeks maybe a month. It wouldn’t be so bad if the medical end was like in California even just a little bit, at least let me carry a weapon concealed, its not like I’m gonna go postal if I was I woulda done it years ago.
