I beleive the majority of the people have at least tried, got curious or have been offered some weed at one point in their lives.
Personally, I have a medical card, so i've been puffing away in my front porch. I'm sure one of my nieghbors has seen me smoke from time to time, but I really don't think they care. Then again I live in a quiet neighborhood with very limited crime. I guess as long as I'm not bothering anyone, they don't see people smoking weed as a threat. Then again, I may be wrong, maybe they are bothered by it, but they still say good morning to me so I don;t see how they would be bothered.
One thing is for sure, since I got my medical card, I smoke more openly. But I still try and smoke discretly out of respect to myself and to others (especially my parents). My parents are 99% against smoking pot. They both know I smoke, heck, they know I have my medical card. But they won't tell me anything about not smoking pot out of respect. And just that very same way, I won't smoke in front of them out of respect. You have to keep in mind that, although I have a right to have my medication, not everybody sees maryjane the same way.
A lot of people in my area do it, and a lot of cops don't care. Generally I think most people don't care because there's people that do harder drugs around here (usually always rich kids), and most people know pot is harmless. I remember one time I was walking to my friends house and I had a cap with a cannabis leaf on it. I live in a small town so the cops don't have much to do, and one stopped me and kept asking me "where are you hiding the dimebag." I kept telling him I didn't have anything, and I really didn't, in the end he said alright kid I'm pretty sure you have something on you, so I'll let you go and have a fun night. Then his partner said to me, don't think you won kid. :jointsmile:
people care here in tn but i smoke outside, walkin around, ive smoked at school many, at the mall entrance,but im sortof an adrenaline smoker haha i love it,but on my street the police dont care cause they cant arrest everyone, well all scatter!they will say go inside with it usually but in public i dont know never got caught
Well, I live around the area where that judge got caught smoking weed in a park. In south florida. I don't think anyone called the cops on him. The cops were already there. lol
I walk down my street from the gas station and smoke joints or blunts all the time. When adults with kids pass they smile and kinda nod towards the joint or blunt and I hide it, no biggie. That could be because they've seen me before though.
The smell.. lol sometimes I wonder if my neighbors mind it because it's consistent, every night they get a cloud of the sweet smell in their backyard. They've never called the police.
I guess it's a matter of how you carry yourself. And also being careful. :rasta:
Pretty much no-one cares about it round here... Which is ace :D
Peace :thumbsup:
Ha. I wish I could do something like that. I live in utah. The population of my town is about 80% LDS, better known as Mormons. Just looking like a pothead gets me many dirty looks daily. Most people around here look down on potheads real bad as if there somehow better than us just because we smoke a damn plant. Cops dont care too much since most of them have done it and know that its not that bad. But walk around high and let people notice it you will probably have the police after you asap.
around here it's all good, ive smoked a cigarette bat near cops before. i smoke joints walking around my neighborhood and blaze in the parks and stuff. i just stay away from little kids and elders out of respect. normally i try not to blaze at all on main roads because my mom seems to always drive past me if im walking
In some parts of DC, you could and no one would care except the police. Mostly, you can't.
Here in Portland Oregon we have legalized medical, and the police are pretty tolerant, even with recreational use. But one thing they don't like is public pot use. Even registered patients have to hide, or risk losing their card.
Lots of people do it anyway.
