I've been busted on four different occasions <strong>and</strong> I was dealt with in a reasonable manner<br />

in each case because I knew (from my dad) that if you are polite with <strong>the</strong>m... But in<br />

Sean's case, it didn't matter. Some say Cops are worse in some places, perhaps in<br />

proportion to population density – if only cops were as geographically consistent as Big<br />

Macs. I have a hunch that <strong>the</strong> cops where I'm from have made a conscientious decision to<br />

LOOK THE OTHER WAY. Whe<strong>the</strong>r this choice stems from internal guilt or from being<br />

fed up with paper work & wasting <strong>the</strong> court’s time I don't know BUT THEY HAVE.<br />

Last summer I smoked with about 10 kids daily in <strong>the</strong> open space of a city park where<br />

three years prior I had been busted in a relatively private area. One day some out of town<br />

kids came to us lookin to score <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>y did. Soon after, some local "Wigger" thugs<br />

strong-armed <strong>the</strong> newly acquired stash from our new friends. The robbery was reported<br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> local cops actually TRIED TO BUST THE WIGGERS WHO STOLE THE POT<br />

– NOT THE KIDS WHO BOUGHT/SOLD IT FAIRLY AND PEACEFULLY.<br />

Cops, of all people in this world, have an acute awareness/knowledge of "good" <strong>and</strong><br />

"evil." Any cop who thinks po<strong>the</strong>ads are a threat to <strong>the</strong> community <strong>and</strong> deserve <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

possessions seized, body incarcerated, <strong>and</strong> family str<strong>and</strong>ed, are quite simply <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />

EVIL – whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>y are "good" or not. I had a cop admit to me he was a "tool" but he<br />

still went on to profile my brethren anyway.<br />

Until laws are changed via grass roots orgs, NORML, MPP, etc., it is <strong>the</strong> cops <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>m<br />

alone who perpetuate this injustice!<br />

JUST LOOK THE OTHER WAY.
