I understand the issues with drugs. I used to have a drinking & marijuana problem. Haven't touched either (or any other illegals) in nearly 20 years. Follow all laws, don't even jaywalk... I do find it disturbing some of the laws taken to fight illegal drugs (and other crimes). I just went to the drug store to get some more (50% off sale), no need for id there (law says they have until Sept, IIRC). The drug store I normally use (which does the id thing now), was sold out of some. People stocked up. This is just a little thing in the eyes of many (& I wondered why it bothered me so). It's the sense that we have to PROVE we are not criminals. Same with gun laws in some areas, and banking laws, old ladies searched at airports...

Hard to understand the law makers sometimes. Good intentions I guess. But the end result is we are frustrated trying to get what we need, but people that want some illegal drug will be able to find it regardless. I also noticed my math was a little off. Two packs should last me 6 days, and by then the allergies usually subside for a few weeks before a different pollen gets in the air and bothers me again. I just needed to rant my frustration somewhere.
