hiding the evidence

a fair few of the threads i read in "marijuana" are all about hiding the evidence of smoking and what not. i think this is sad, when you smoke your pot, or whatever, you should smoke it proudly and not have clearing the evidence up in the back of your head while your toking. but yea, ive had my share of years where i had to hide it... it sucks.

i think its better to just smoke like yoiu dont care, then if your parents find out, just admit that you smoke the herb. what they gonna do, call the cops on yo ass? i should hope not.... well anyway... happy toking either way.

i also think a lot of australians are more laid back about it, then, say, america. although i dont mean to be sterotypical or any of that, cos its still very very socially and morally unecepted in aust.

well thats my rant.

 

Very true! I am always public to everyone about my pot smoking. I think everyone should be honest and respectful to the plant... whoa, these cookies are amazzzinng... Sry lol, just ate some cana-cookies!

 

I have to disagree... There are times when you should definately not be public about pot usage..

 

uhhh, hmmm.... lemme think about this.... oh yeah, maybe im not trying to get caught... oh yeah theres that key word CAUGHT.

 

in a perfect world, yes i would agree. but unfortunately that isn't the case. the fact the one can get arrested (even by having your parents call the cops when they catch you...i've heard a few people have that happen) forces the smarter onces to keep their habits on the down-low. and whether we like it or not, the government has done a fantastic job convincing everyone that pot is nearly synonymous with the devil so you can't even tell everyone that you do it. it sucks, but it's reality. maybe in the next few decades it'll change.

 

My parents called the cops on my ass.

 

To quote Peter Tosh- "Legalize it and I will advertise it" but until then I have to smoke in private: my apartment, hide in the woods, be secretive, etc. because the police have and will beat my ass for smoking openly and trying to run away when they take issue to my blazing. Going to the county jail, paying thousands of dollars to not have further charges pressed against me, then having to combat my probation officer in his many attempts to have me locked up... are what happens when you don't hide the evidence. I'm all for in your face cannabis ACTIVISM.. going down with an intention but I'm not down to be another statistic because I smoke herb.

 

i guess smoking publicly is your own choice, but, its not worth getting caught hehe.

at home on the other hand, when people who love you are around, ie parents and friends, it would be nice to smoke without having to worry about, as i said 'hiding the evidence.' it makes smoking that pot worse in my opinion cos your paranoid and what not.

 

that sucks man.

 

I'm 18 and moving out soon, and I've told my parents I smoke. I just keep all my shit in a drawer in plain sight.

 

Completely agree. When I'm at home for the holidays I try to reduce the scent of herb coming out from under my door but for the most part I'm not sneaking around just chillin in my room with the windows open and a towel at the door. I still have little brothers that need to mature a bit before they start blazing so I don't try and bring a lot of attention to it. It would be REAL nice if the whole family could kick back and blaze after thanksgiving but for some reason my family keeps it from each other.. I'm the only one who openly blazes.

 

Like when being pulled over by a cop
Funny thing about cops, they tend to pick on people that have pot......

 

My parents yell and get on my bro for drinking and he is 22!!! So becuase of that I don't think its a very good idea if id open up about it. I like to keep it secret except from my friends, it would be nice to be able to just sit back and relax on my bed smoking though... I guess I'll do that when I move out.

 

In a perfect world there'd be no reason to hide it. This, funnily enough, is not a perfect world, and there are plenty of reasons to

 

I always make sure Im not worried when Im actually in the act of smoking so I don't rush. I get way higher when I take my time smoking and pay attention. I pretty much act like Im allowed to be smoking until I can actually hear someone coming up the stairs.

 

bastards

 

^^^
Yeah, majorly

 

i would agree but my parents called the cops on me, and i had to deal with a years probation. so yeah, once you get busted its kinda hard to not keep stuff like that in the back of your head.

 

if my parents called the cops on me for weed, i would never forgive them man.

 

werd.
