He'll Put This in His Pipe and Smoke It

  • 16 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

While the decriminalization of medical marijuana is becoming a hot issue in Denver, one Timothy Haas was in the news yesterday because he got his weed back. From the Rocky Mountain News:

Timothy Haas felt equal parts redemption and queasiness Monday as he picked up a plastic bag containing half an ounce of marijuana at the Denver Police Department.

“I just want to go home and lie down,” said Haas, 38. “The marijuana will calm me down.”

Denver police returned the marijuana to Haas after authorities confiscated the drugs more than a month ago. Haas, who is from Denver, is prescribed to use medical marijuana for post-traumatic stress syndrome and post-concussion syndrome.

Haas said he suffered the ailments when he was hit in the head with a bat and stabbed three times in the chest in an attempted robbery at his wine business in 2001. Haas started using medical marijuana three years ago to deal with pain such as muscle spasms and ringing vibrations in his body.

He was hit in the head with a bat and stabbed three times in the chest? If anybody should get to smoke weed, it’s this guy. But what really got our attention on this story is the picture of Haas, from the News, walking down the hallway of the Denver Police Administration Building:

Now that’s funny.

    Get over the digitally enhanced height thing…I read that article in the Post, and I thought it was a very small article (no pun intended).  I haven’t decided who I’m supporting in that race, but just because Marc is not as tall as his opponennt doesn’t make me NOT want to vote for him.

    get a clue – it was a JOKE – I could care less if MH is tall, grande or venti – the picture just reminded me of the digitally enhanced pix which ran in the Post
