Hug Da Police!

Despite the fact that I am a total stoner, I have no real issues with the police on the rare occasion that I have to deal with them. So when they used to call every 6 months or so, and offered me a sticker for a donation, I was happy to slip them $10 here and there. I'm not wealthy, but I feel okay doing that.

Tonight though, I got one of those calls that was really pushy and rude, and I ended up agreeing to send $15, even though I didn't want to and can't afford it.

I'm pretty pissed off about it. I'm annoyed that I let myself get bullied by a cop even though it was over the phone (I was pretty high). And I'm irritated that even though I am cool about contributing that they would still call at 9pm and railroad me while I'm trying to relax in my own home.

I think I will not send the money.
I need to figure out what to tell them when they called to check on it.

They probably won't hound you for it but if they do, lie and tell them that you've decided to make that donation to another charity. I'd probably say the ACLU just to piss them off, but, that's just me.

They do hound people, as they have hounded me in the past when it took 1 week to send the money.

It is crazy with them...so I'm going to ask them to take me off their list. I don't drive so they can't put out an APB on my car or anything...
