I Got In Some Serious Shi...Fuuuuu

[D. B. Doober]

I'm actually not sure on the no smoking thing, too. My attorney said she could try to work on something where I could medicate (Osteoarthrits).

get your medical recommendation and all relevant paperwork together immediately. That's step 1. You don't want to have to go without smoking, man. Can you really do it if you had to? I'd rather do small time in jail then not smoke for a year. I would rather do 30 days in the joint instead of not smoking for a year.

wow

can't say I agree...my freedom is worth far more to me than the ability to get high or even medicate in that way...

jail sucks but I've thought about this scenario sitting in bed at night quite often.

Same here, when I hear someone say something like that it makes me wonder if they've ever done more then a couple of days in some lock up or if they've ever been incarcerated at all? Your freedom is far more precious then having the ability to get high and besides chances of you blazing up in jail are very, very, slim.

Having to do without for an extended period is not that hard the first week or two kind of sucks but once you get beyond that staying sober is not that hard. Plus you get that added bonus when you're able to light up again of being able to get more wasted then you were getting, off of much less. Unfortunately that phase doesn't last long if you start smoking just to be smoking rather then putting the pipe, bong, joint or vape down when you have achieved a state of being high.

There are also a couple of side benefits to taking an extended break.

1) Probably the most common side effect is you start remembering your dreams more and they're usually pretty interesting.

2) You get that sense of inner strength of knowing you are not some plant's bitch.

3) If you're looking for work now you won't have to worry about drug screenings.

Going straight isn't easy, I'm not saying it's a piece of cake. What I am saying is it is much more doable then say cigarettes, alcohol, narcotics, etc. All this fear people have over having to go straight is just garbage thinking. Maybe some of the more extreme cases of medical marijuana patients with things like cancer might have legitimate trouble quitting but the majority of tokers who think they can't it's mostly just in their imagination,

Stop thinking about it and actually give it a try. Try quitting for a month, not because you have to but because you want to know what it will be like if you ever do have to with no choice. The first week is the hardest but very doable, the second week is usually much easier and then after that it's no big deal for most people.

If you truly can't quit then you are admitting that you are powerless over marijuana and that your life has become unmanageable without it, which is more or less the same thing as the first step in Alcoholics or Narcotics anonymous.

I had probation for a year once. after that, they erased everything from the books except the judges private records. I asked my PO if I was going to be tested while on probation & she told me "laws against pot are fucking stupid. if you don't get arrested again, I'm not going to bother you, this is a waste of your time & mine..."I took a joint to every monthly visit to donate my $48, and burned it on my way back to work...

I have blazed up in jail many times.....yeehaw

 

[stoned-trout]

30-60 days of jail with no probation after word vs 1 year of probation.

I'd take the jail time. It would go much faster than 1 year.

1 year probation if you mess up in any way for anything they reset your probation to day 1.

No only that probation cost $1,000.00 on top of drug test payments and some times community slave labor service where you have to complete so many hours. Also you may get PO who never drug test and don't care or you might get a total bitch. In that case it would be best not to smoke.

Not only that what if within that year you get cancer or something and you die. You spent the last 10 months not smoking when you should of been blazing it up. You could die in prison also though but chances are you wont. Just do your 30 days and be done with it.

Of course though probation would probably be the better choice because you would loose your job and have to have someone take care of all your things and responsibilities for that time.

Probation for pot is ludicrous to begin with and so is drug testing for it. You can smoke cigs while on it and they don't care but don't smoke a joint. That shows they really don't care about your health and it's just a system grab.

ya that

at least on probation you can try to cheat on the piss test. I know a guy that used a fake dick with fake urine for a whole year and pulled it off.

 

[jd4083]

Seriously blows me away that anybody could place their freedom behind the ability to get stoned for a year. Absolutely mind-boggling.

I could not do that. They stand over me at the stall and watch me piss.





Well I am glad you guys probation went so easy. Can't say that for everyone though. I had to pay for multiple drug test that cost lots of money plus court and probation fees. Not only that after I pissed dirty as they call it for weed they raided me and found a glass pipe. PO officer wanted a paraphernalia charge and another 30 days in jail for the pipe. Good thing the judge threw it out. Never smoked once after but got tested 5 times. Had a huge bill for drug test once I finished the probation.

What fucking freedom. You are a slave to the system.

You have said a lot of whacked out shit but this takes the cake. yeah, no benefit to remaining out of prison whatsoever, it's all the same right? those fucking fascists


you guys are delusional as fuck it is utterly terrifying that when most people think of our community, you are the people who they feel represent us.

Why the fuck are they even locking people up for it to begin with?

Does it matter at this point? Nobody is arguing that cannabis prohibition/the war on drugs is absurd and has done far, far more harm than good, if any good at all.

They are locking people up, so maybe do your best to keep your nose clean and stay the fuck out of the crossfire. If you want to work on the issues and try to change things you're going to be a lot more effective on the street than you are from behind bars.

I used to take county jail over the bullshit all the time as a youth in maine. the judge knew me well..broke every misdeamenor I could..your not free to do anything on probation and can be searched any time...as long as you learn your lesson all is good...back then you could smoke in jail and I knew everyone lol...maine rocks

Just rolling over to my friends house and on the way back having on small bag of bud on you in the car can land you on probation for 1 year.




Does it really matter? What kind of question is that. No it does not. The damage is done and we are all going to die so who gives a fuck.

Do you really not see how useless comments like this are? Constantly lamenting the legal situation surrounding cannabis and talking about how unfair it is makes you sound like a petulant, angsty child. Everybody knows that it's bullshit and it sucks, you're not saying anything new here. If you really are as interested as you claim to be in furthering our "cause," maybe try actively doing something instead of bitching on an internet forum.

pay the man,play the game,learn a lesson,move on ...yeehaw

It is different in Washington, because pot is legal. I know two people on parole for felonies and they can smoke as much pot as they want. The piss test is for other drugs now

edit

as long as you are an adult. Minors cannot take any drugs on probation
