I TRIED TO AVOID ANY INTERACTION WITH THE POLICE. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED BY OBEYING ALL LAW AND REGULATION.
SEARCH AS YOU MIGHT YOU COULD NEVER FIND ANYTHING I HAD DONE WHICH WOULD HAVE HARMED ANYONE, NOR WOULD THERE BE ANYTHING I HAD STOLEN OR DAMAGED. BY 1974 I REALIZED THAT I HAD TO REGULARLY AND CONSTANTLY SMOKE MARIJUANA AND HASHISH TO ESCAPE THE VIRTUAL PARALYSIS WHICH I SUFFERED FROM AFTER MY 1970 INJURY IN A CAR CRASH. BECAUSE CANNABIS REGULATION WAS UNJUSTLY AND ARBITRARILY CRIMINALIZED I WOULD OFTEN BE IN VIOLATION OF THIS REGULATION AND THUS VULNERABLE TO ARREST. I WAS ACCUSED OF BEING MOTIVATED AND CAPABLE OF MANY FORMS OF POTENTIAL MISCONDUCT AND DEFAMED AS A DANGEROUS PERSON. THERE WAS NO WAY I WOULD DO ANYTHING WHICH WOULD EMPOWER POLICE TO COME TO MY HOME AND FIND ME SMOKING MARIJUANA. THE STORIES TOLD ABOUT ME WERE INTENDED TO GET THE POLICE ON TO ME. MY EX WIFE SAID I HATED LAWYERS AND POLICE AND THAT "SHE HAD TOLD THE POLICE I WAS VIOLENT AND AGGRESSIVE". IT IS NOW 35 YEARS LATER AND I HAVE NEVER DONE ANYTHING VIOLENT NOR AGGRESSIVE, I AM NOT CAPABLE...
