Fly with mmj or w/o it?

[budsmoker87]

I've flown with weed once...out of a tiny airport in North Dakota on a direct flight to Vegas, a few months ago



No special packaging...just in a single ziplock bag it came in, I rolled it up, wore some male thong underwear and tucked it up in there...half the bag under my balls and the other half sorta stuffed between my ass cheeks


I only did this because I was familiar with Minot Airport (TINY airport) and the flight was direct. I was still a bit concerned about dogs...particularly when I landed in Vegas...


After having been to jail for a tiny amount of weed after that and having to pay thousands in court expenses, I'd never do this again. North Dakota= weed nazi state

I went thru a small airport too. And Alaska's pretty liberal about weed even though I'm in fed territory at the security check-in.

LEO would call her Mom and older sibling while I got violated for having a plant in my pocket. I just had to get some skin in the game. Feel good about it too.

So, basically the child's trauma takes a back seat to your "getting some skin in the game." She's with you. She will be searched as well. She will be held in custody. Child Services will be called. I'm glad you feel good about that. Must help you sleep at night.

What an ass!

What an ass!

Who? Carne, for pointing out the consequences were you caught, or you for placing a 12-year-old at such risk for ... something discretionary? Your deed was out of balance if you consider payout v. risk. Jmo. cn

 

[Carne Seca]

What an ass!

Funny you should say that. I was thinking the same about you. If you want to risk your own ass? By all means, Boo-boo. Do your thing. Endangering the welfare of a child just because you don't want to go a few days without being high? Now that just reeks of asshole.

Yes, Carme, an ass. For not knowing an outcome, making unknown assumptions, for condescending. Don't like my behavior- to each his own. I'm proud of myself for standing against prohibition and having the courage to face the consequences!!!

1. for not considering the consequences
2. for completely ignoring the safety of a child in your care
3. for feeling proud about placing that child in harm's way

I could go on and on but I think you get the point. This has nothing to do with standing against prohibition. It has to do with your selfishness. And courage? It takes more courage to face up to your responsibilities and act like an adult. If you had been by yourself we wouldn't be having this exchange. But. You had a twelve year old CHILD in your care. If you had been arrested, she and her mother would be dealing with the consequences months and even years from now.

Oh I'm very skeptical! I need to be somewhere on time and will have family with me. Wrong circumstances/timing to test the water. Have read AK,s statutes a couple times pretty well. Really can't recall any mention of crossing state lines. I definately think its federal and if its also state like Washington, I didn't know that.

I would think the catch would be that you are using FED regulated/supervised transportation.

He is completely missing the point. Who in the Hell would put this person in charge of a child???? WTF???



EDIT: O.k., I wasn't going to get into this but his cluelessness is getting on my last good nerve.

I have seen a shitload of cases just like this. Someone makes a fucking STUPID choice that impacts the lives of those around them. I used to have to deal with the fallout. I have counseled so many families that were split up because of shit just like this. Children placed in foster homes. Families spending hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to fix something that could have easily been avoided. By making an adult choice. KEEP THE WEED AT HOME. I fucking HATE our laws and what is going on with marijuana prohibition. Families are destroyed because of bad laws. We are trying to change that. Some day it will be legal. Someday. Right now it's illegal and the law is the law. You have the responsibility as an adult to look after your family and friends. If you are committed to a relationship then it is your duty to protect them. Especially, ESPECIALLY if it's a child. They have no defenses. They cannot protect themselves. THEY ARE CHILDREN. It's YOUR responsibility to protect that child. No matter what. Even if it means losing your life. This is how important it is.

Browsing local laws and surfing the internet is comparable to this? Really? Like I said earlier, if you want to fuck up your life and get busted for possession then by all means, do it. But you do not have the right to put anyone else through the trauma of a drug bust. ESPECIALLY A CHILD.

You fucked up. You posted your fuck up in a public forum. Deal with the consequences.

What an ass!

I agree, you ARE a total ass. Obviously a little pot is more important to you than the well being of the 12 yr old you flew with. Transporting drugs across state lines with a kid in your custody is reprehensible.

Skin in the game? What is that some sick turn on for you? The goal is to keep as much skin out of the game as possible, smart guy.

Im glad for the CHILD'S sake that everything went ok. DON'T do it again, that kid will get taken away faster than you can say "skin in the game". Asshat.

 

[guy incognito]

I would have hidden the weed in my childs stuff. Less chance of them getting searched than me.

I'm not going to spew the shame-on-you rant. Rather, just to plant the seed that maybe psychological addiction has gained a foothold in your life? Your actions IMO are indicative of addictive behavior. Let it digest, give it a serious consideration and maybe a pro's opinion on it (not from RIU but from a real counselor or someone) I'm sure you are a great father.

If you get caught the FAA and Feds might consider it interstate trafficking.......

Step 1. Impregnate whore.
Step 2. Turn Child into drug mule
Step 3. Enjoy fruits of labor.

Wow- hit a lot of nerves!
We're safe and sound at our destination. I'm a boundary pusher. My daily work has more risk to my daughters being fatherless than flying with a gram ever will. Not justifying, that's a fact. Of course they know I grow and smoke for meds. Not chronic, never have been. At my age, in my career, after surviving cancer twice, not much phases me and I'm comfortable with my life.

My complaint isn't with being a boundary pusher or a well-earned sense of fuckit. My complaint is with involving a minor child in this smuggling, and seeming smug. cn

I am a real counselor. His addiction is his own problem and he can deal with the consequences but his attitude and actions endanger others. That's my concern.

And once again completely missing the point. But, I'm done with this thread. One of these days this is going to come back and bite you in the ass and I hope there isn't any collateral damage. People like you are the reason we have prohibition and so much opposition to legalization. You are the epitomy of a stoner stereotype. Putting weed above all else including your own child. That is the behavior of an addict.

Home from touring the birthplace of our nation. We all had a great history lesson and enjoyed the culture of city life.

Just out of curiosity when you get a mm card does that make you legal in all states that are legal or just the one in which you were issued the license?
