What a stupid waste of time and resources.... They did dismiss the case though...


Police raided a terminally ill Kansas man’s hospital room because he allegedly used a weed vape and THC paste to ease the symptoms of the cancer that will kill him within weeks.

On Dec. 16, Hays, Kansas police raided the hospital room of 69-year-old Greg Bretz, who is suffering from terminal cancer, after a hospital worker at Hays Medical Center caught him vaping marijuana,
Bretz said he has been vaping, as well as eating THC paste with bread, to relieve symptoms of his condition since being hospitalized roughly three weeks ago.

Bretz is in the final stages of terminal, inoperable cancer and told The Wichita Eagle that he most often lies “flat on his back” in his hospital bed and can’t stand up without being assisted. Bretz told the Kansas City Star that his doctor told him to use whatever was necessary to relieve his pain, including products containing THC — the active ingredient in cannabis.

Police told Bretz that his vaping device could potentially be a fire hazard, due to the presence of oxygen in the room. In many vaping devices, puffing activates the battery-powered heating device, which vaporizes the liquid in the cartridge or reservoir for inhalation.

Bretz was cited for drug possession and is set to appear in court after the new year on Jan. 2, 2023.

And on the other hand, letting miscarrying women go septic in the name of their oh-so-sacred morals.

You might almost get to thinking that all that noise the uber-religious make about how religious they are is a front and that what lies behind it is far uglier than anything they loudly decry.

The party of pro-life.

Terri Schiavo brain dead: "Look at the balloons!!"
Man smoking weed on his death bed: "Lock him up!!!"

The party of batshit insanity. The nation is not well.
 
The guy's in a hospital and there are workers and other patients there that have to breath in his nasty fumes. He has the choice to die at home under hospice care. In that case he can do anything he want.

All of that can be handled without the police and charging the guy with a crime.

Nasty fumes? Smh. Any old nonsense will do. Defend the indefensible.

Pro-life, right?

If you wanted to know which type of person supports Trump . . . .

Pro-tip: no "nasty fumes" are involved in either eating "THC paste" or vaping it. This just cruelty for cruelty's sake mixed with a bit of something truly sick that plagues humanity a desire to kick those who have fallen in order to make oneself feel morally superior.

There are no 'fumes' to THC vape. My brother - a very conservative man - can be sitting next to me at the card table and I cannot tell he's vaping THC.
 
****in' Kansas police are insane.

They will get even worse when Kobach is AG.
