A psychonaut gets caught
May 26, 2005 - guardian.co.uk

Lawrence, not his real name, was one of the 22 British users of research chemicals arrested recently. Here he describes what happened to him:

I was woken by a very loud knock on my front door just before sunrise. I opened the door to be confronted by eight coppers from the local tactical team, ready with a battering ram.

They searched my room ... and found my personal stash of many psychedelic compounds including 2CI, 2CB and 5-meo-DMT, nn-DMT, DPT, 5-meo-DIPT, MDMA [ecstasy], a large bag of dried mushrooms, close to an ounce of weed, and a small amount of very old GHB powder.

They also took my phone, computer and many financial and drug related documents. Then they arrested me on suspicion of importing and possessing class A drugs with intent to supply.

I was held in custody for four hours, gave a "no comment" interview on legal advice, and then bailed to appear a few months later.

When I went back for a police interview, I explained that I was an intelligent, academic student of mind, consciousness and reality, with no previous criminal record who used these compounds for self-inquiry, self-understanding, self-development and self-expression.

I won them over and proved to them that all the substances found were for personal use. They dropped most of the charges, simply leaving eight counts of possession. Last week I went to the magistrates court and walked out with a fine of ?75 for each charge, just ?600.

Either that story is fake or the UK has something the US doesn't, intelligent police.

Sweet.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

Holy shit, if that happened to me in Florida, I would be facing at LEAST 5-10 years.
