I had a fit when they started putting cold medicine behind the counter and one had to sign a paper saying you bought it.

Doesn't that burn you up?!?! Me too! There's a Rite Aid near us where I refuse to shop ever again, because last year when I went in looking for a youth-dose version of psuedophedrine for my youngest, the gal behind the pharmacy counter acted like I was trying to buy heroin.

“the gal behind the pharmacy counter acted like I was trying to buy heroin.”

Sometime in the spring, I had been out in my garden and I am allergic to anything that puts out pollen, so I was sneezing and my head felt like a basketball and I did two days of that and then went to Walgreens. I don't know why I went to the pharmacist instead of looking for allergy stuff myself, but I told him I was sneezing constantly and my head was a mess, I guess he could see I was suffering, AND HE GOT THE STRONGEST MED FOR THAT WITH ALL THE STUFF IN THERE THAT IS CONTROLLED NOW, handed it to me and didn't have me sign anything. I am a regular customer there, so maybe he knew I wasn't a druggie, I don't know, but he didn't question that sale one bit.

After I left, I thought about what happened. Why I went to him instead of a shelf. I wanted the strongest stuff I could get so guess that's why I did that. If I had gone to a shelf, I would have ended up with a card I had to take to the pharmacist counter so they could get it. Damn, you can't even buy something off the shelf now.

I feel like we are all under a microscope and if we deviate one bit, a big govn. hammer hits us. Use a “suspected” word on the internet, and the cops may show up, and their suspected word list gets longer and longer.

Perhaps we can thank Trayvon Martin and his like for why this is happening.
