the other day, 4/20 I witnessed a mugging in the fred meyer parking lot.
it was about 11:30 at night
there is a cop station about a block away
but it took 15 minutes for a cop car to get there
they dispatcher on the 911 phone was asking so many questions that it took a long time. and in the meantime the mugger got in a car and drove away, with the victims backpack.

I saw the guy who was chased. he was running for his life!
but the mugger cuaght him and tackled him.

by then the mugger realized he better get out of there right away.
and he did.
so the cops come, and I tell em what I saw, even though I was nervous as hell becuase I had been working with my plants all day long and probably had like a half ounce in my pocket.

I haven't seen the victim on the bus the last few days I hope he is allright and didn't lose too much.

later on about midnite I was still waiting for my bus and the biggest police dog I ever saw ran across the street and sat down watching me.

I said HELLO OFFICER and tried not to act scared.

then the handler/cop ran up and talked to me some more about how sad that mugging was.
we don't have many muggings fortunately.

anyway
the next day
I'm sitting at the bus stop and observing the comuters as they drive home to their big houses in innis arden

oh, and I was probably toking on my pipe once in a while too.

well one of those soccer moms musta seen me toking and called on her cell phone to the cop shop aboust a block away.

then all of a sudden I see three cops walking up to me.

they tell me they got a report of me smoking a joint in public.
I calmly denied the charges and complied with there request to run my ID.
my ID still has my old address fortunately.

then they asked me, were you smoking a hand rolled cigarette or something?
again I said no, and they realized they didn't have shit on me to even begin a search.
and they left.

I tell you guys this story to let you know just where police priorities lie.
they'd rather catch a toker instead of a mugger!
