Bonneville America Forums Forums Off Topic Discussion Forums Lounge Three (3) Days ?

I lived in Albquerque NM for 4 years and peddled stuff door to door in Tucumcari and Las Vegas NM. The cops in Tucucari went ballistic on us and rode us out of town. Las Vegas NM was a mite nicer. Truth or Consequences NM was really a nice place for us. We spent three days there and sold everything we had. The people there were so happy to see us that they threw out the welcome mat and treated us like royalty.

There was a glitch in the trip. On the way back in my GMC full size Jimmy I had 3 passengers. I told them that the State Police and ICE were prone to putting up road block and equipped with drug sniffing dogs were death on narcotics and such. I told them if any of them were holding anything they would get me or my truck in trouble and they got caught they were on their own and if my truck got confiscated there would be terrible consequences.

They all assured me that they were not and the trip continued. Somewhere near Belen NM there was the roadblock. The dog sniffed one of my passengers and he had over an ounce of decent pot. They wanted to confiscate my truck but I advised them that this idiot had been warned by me and since they found the pot on his person and I had no knowledge of it they really could not justify taking my wheels. Somehow I kept the truck. He stayed there and spent 60 days in the slammer and lost his pot. He was also fired immediately.

He came sucking around the office one day looking for a handout and it was all I could do not to choke him out on the spot.
