I've thought about trying my hand out to see if I have the green thumb, that way if it is ever legalized here I'll already have a leg up. I have all the equipment just never tried because of the fear of arrest. Louisiana has some of the harshest laws in the nation. But the more data that comes out the more people are starting to realize that marijuana is completely harmless, and hopefully one day if the powers that be can quit their profiting from locking up black people and Mexican people, and poor whites addiction for bullshit marijuana crimes, we can get it legalized like it should be.
Sitting on the parade ground one night 42 years ago I made a bet that I was 75% certain I would win. Pot would be legal in 5 years soon after the 1976 elections; and if not by then 100% for sure after the 1980 elections. Of course, at the time I was stoned.
