2. Ever been in Jail? Discuss? Have you ever stolen anything?
Yes. Over 20 years ago I made serious error in judgment and continue to pay for it to this day. Back in the early 80?s there was a beer strike in Ontario. (Our beer stores are government owned) My normal weekend was to pick up some beer and hang with my friends at a local pool hall. Instead I got fucked up on 6 or so hits of acid and a bottle of whiskey and when one of the people I was with suggested we break into some industrial units looking for cash etc? I was enough of a sheeple to agree. Got caught coming out of the back door one of the units we had broken into and had a nervous cop point his gun at me and tell me to freeze. Needless to say I got a good shit kicking and carted off to jail. After spending the weekend in the holding center I was brought down to the pens to await transport to court for bail. I am sitting on a bench in a cramped holding pen with two guys on either side of me that are both in for serious armed robbery and a guy is standing in front of me talking about how he killed a cop in NYC, scalped some girl and wore her hair to disguise himself to get across the border into Canada. He looked like a cross between Charles Manson and John Belushi and being anywhere near him cared the shit out of me. He ended being deported and was killed while ?resisting arrest? I ended up being sentenced to 6 months in jail and when I got out I decided that I needed to do something else with my life. It?s not something that I would recommend that anyone else try, but spending that time in jail taught me some very important life lessons.
I?ve never stolen anything and got away with it?.lol I make a lousy thief. I?ve found it?s better for people to want to give you things than to take it from them without permission.
