Life Since this whole marijuana thing happened in Denver...

**Rain Man** · 12-30-2009, 11:23 AM

As history, I don't know exactly what happened, but apparently marijuana sale is legal now in Denver as long as you lie and say that you're a "medical marijuana" provider. I have no idea how a company provides false documents that they're a "medical marijuana" provider, or how a person obtains false documents to "prove" they have a need for "medical marijuana", but it's obvious to everybody in the city that it's a joke. We now have storefronts opening up to sell "medical marijuana", and other than the name they're not even trying to cover up what they're doing. (And yeah, yeah, whatever. If there's a need for medical marijuana that's legitimate, fine. But if there's a real need, its cause is being negatively impacted by all the fraud that's going on in Denver right now.)

So anyway, I've lived here for 16 years. In the first 15 years of living here, I was asked only once if I wanted to buy drugs. Some scary dude asked me once if I "wanted to buy" as I was walking home. Probably not marijuana.

In the last six to eight months, I've been asked three times if I wanted to buy marijuana, twice on my walk home and once when I was out shopping. The people offering me this stuff are skanky, nasty people that I do not want to talk to, much less buy stuff from. I don't want to encounter these people, deal with these people, talk to these people, or quite frankly, even see these people, much less ingest illegal stuff into my body that they're selling.

It's frustrating that these people are getting so emboldened that they're trying to sell this stuff to strangers on the street. And I'm not a guy who fits the profile, either - in fact, I probably look much more like an undercover cop than a buyer of recreational drugs. So if they're walking up trying to sell this stuff to me as I'm walking to work, they're walking up to everyone.

I really hate where this is heading. Denver is a nice city otherwise.

Just pretend you are a cop and ask them if they'd like to spend the night in jail.

seclark · 12-30-2009, 11:26 AM

so, does this mean you won't put me up at your place when i come out there to treat my illness?

I love being able to buy it tax free legally with my health savings account

teedubya · 12-30-2009, 11:26 AM

maybe the Bronco players will get real stoned and we can beat them on Sunday?

**Dartgod** · 12-30-2009, 11:26 AM

Can you hook a brother up?

**cdcox** · 12-30-2009, 11:27 AM

If you rode your bike to work, they would have a tougher time approaching you.

Sounds like DaFace found some secondary income.

When complete strangers ask me questions of that nature they all get the same reply: "no sir officer."

It couldn't just be coincidence? Marijuana is not the debil. Pot Heads are not dirty, filthy people. They are regular normal people. I doubt that you would even be able to identify a pot head on any consistant basis.

Sounds like you are dealing with poor, possibly homeless junkies. Huge difference.

And you don't need fraudulant papers to get medical MJ. You just need a doctors approval, which is easy enough to get. And only people with papers can get the shit. They are VERY strict.

Ever been inside a MJ despinsary? It's like going into a Code red high security lock down, man. They only allow one person in at a time.

Demonpenz · 12-30-2009, 11:31 AM

KCUnited · 12-30-2009, 11:32 AM

When I see someone walking I assume they are a pothead.

**TinyEvel** · 12-30-2009, 11:32 AM

I guess it's legal here in California too. A block form my house this place that used to be a record shop reopened as GRACE. Nice modern sign, Ipe wood slat frontage design. We thought it was a new restaurant. My wife suggested we go try it out. I walked by the other day and checked inside. It's a medical marijuana distribution center. Damn upscale! Way more than the old welfare office-looking one about a mile away.

Gracie Dean · 12-30-2009, 11:33 AM

with the Chemo, hubby has offered to buy thinking it would help but we live in Kansas, I said absolutely NOT. Both of us have awesome jobs that would not be understanding if we popped positive. Besides, I never really got into it. The one time I tried it, I burned my bangs. Seems as I wasn't holding the "bowl" right. That was 25 years ago...have no desire.
