I went to meet a fellow online legal medical patient today to give him some meds and get an air conditioner from him he was donating to me in return... We settled on the zoo parking lot, middle ground.
(I know, ok, maybe we could have chosen a better spot but anyway...)
Lady rent a cop pulls up the instant we're looking at his air conditioner. I'm holding a paper bag containing 4 ziplog bagged ounces.
She's fairly cool but even though we try to explain we're legal she says she has to call it in. Rental cops start coming from all directions. One old gomer guy seems to be in charge and tears into the guy I was meeting for doing drug deals with his kids and wife in the car... Starts getting all in his face even, says he's confiscating my medicine and calling the police. I'm not saying anything I didn't want to argue with barney fife but the guy I met says oh no you aren't sir you can't take this mans legal medicine, call the police.
Barney Fife's neck bulges and before he can get in the guys face again I say "Sir, you are wrong, you can't confiscate my medicine but there's no point in arguing about it now, lets get the police here so they can straighten this out.
We sit and sit and talk with a couple of the mall cop girls for a while and one girl is making eyes and flirting with me a little under the radar.
So anyway, police come split us up and compare stories, verify our legal status and then gives us a bunch of incorrect legal information saying we each may be legal to have it but we can't even give it to eachother for free, and starts going on and on him too about kids in the car and that we were around all these kids at the zoo and how it's not safe etc etc. He says to me he's going to just send us home and end it right here so I choose not to correct him on everything he's wrong about, which was everything.
We're free to go but then mall cops stop us each make us sign some paperwork saying we are banned from the zoo for 90 days I think it was. Not only that but took our pictures.
My picture is now posted somewhere in the zoo, like some wanted man.
I'm still a bit shaken and a bit pissed. I didn't want to call the cop on his wrong information because he was already going to let us go and had I made a big deal out of things they could have hauled me in and had my car towed. I would have been found in the right and then released but still I couldn't afford to have my car towed you never get out of that bill.
So here I am free with my weed but feeling both stupid and disrespected. I don't like how that all went down even though it wasn't a big deal and we were let go it's just wrong that we were both treated and now listed like some criminals on the wall.
It's private property we were on (I thought it was public) but we weren't doing anything wrong and so now I almost feel like suing them. I feel like I've been descriminated against.
What can be done for real though? Should I go track down the police and at least tell them they're wrong and show them the law and do the same with the zoo people?
They ruined my air conditioner deal. The guy didn't want to do it after all that. (Probably worried about his kids being taken away or something.) So there are damages, sort of. Thousands of dollars less in medicine I can grow now.
