I'm somewhat perplexed on how some people on this forum continue to assert that I was playing a "victim", or showing "dissatisfaction" with the Missouri law. Neither of those things were present in my OP.
I'm frankly more concerned with the reading comprehension I've recently witnessed than some irrelevant law in Missouri.
I thought I was fairly clear in my comments on how you were playing victim via the choice of words you used describing.
Perhaps instead of concerning yourself with my reading comprehension you should evaluate the impact your narcotic usage may have had on your ability to effectively communicate the point you desire to drive.
I am not sure now that you have opted to shift gears and twist the thread into a weed legalization discussion that you ever had any comprehensible point at all and am ready to dismiss the entire thing as one major whine.
Beyond that, your activism for weed serves no purpose for me, I could care less if you opt to smoke it 24-7 and I do not think I should have to pay for you to be in jail or otherwise harassed by the government for making that choice. It does not mean I think it is a GOOD choice, it just means I consider it none of my business and certainly none of the government's business.
Perhaps if you had opted not to try and soften every aspect of your original post and had said "years ago I plead guilty to the use of illegal narcotics in exchange for an SIS and i think it is stupid that it prevents me from obtaining a MO CCW years later" you would have found far more "reading comprehension" because without any doubt that is exactly what happened and is what you are whining about.
If you were nearly as serious as you imply you are about seeking changes in the laws surrounding weed, you would NOT be here. It is a well known fact that Missouri has some of if not the absolute toughest laws on weed. Regardless of ones position on the subject, you are indeed not in a location you should be expecting a great deal of progress at all. To those who disagree it is a huge issue, and to those of us who you could say agree, it remains so unimportant that while supportive of the position, we have much much more important things to worry about instead of whether you get to fire up a doobie without a care in the world.
And that sir is just how it is, want me to demonstrate compassion and caring? *sniff* there ya go, now move along and lets stick with open carry rights instead.
