It's Easier For Me To Buy An AR-15 Than It Is To Buy Adderall

My Doctor needs to phone in the prescription, and I can ONLY GET A 30 DAY SUPPLY.

Month After Month After Month After....

I could buy a different gun, EVERY DAY, For A Month, or 12 Months, with no trouble at all.

They need to know you are at least 18.

And I bought some 5 gallon buckets at Walmart a year or so ago, and the lady had to come check. When I expressed (friendly) amazement, she said people try to sneak merchandise out in them.

Some doctors won't prescribe it or agree that it is medically necessary etc. Some may want to test you first to obtain a diagnosis etc.

of $2 Chuck at Utah's fucked up liquor stores I HAVE TO SHOW ID.

I don't think there is one single Repuq legislator in Utah that has an IQ above room temp.

Disclaimer: I was born, raised & retired in Utah. We're full time RV'ers and travel where ever we want, but we still have family there. I am so fucking glad whenever I leave that bass-ackward state & get into a state where a 76 year old can be treated like an adult.

Dumb fucking state!

They do the same thing in NC, and the same in VA, MD, and DC.

I really don't think I look that young lol.

I don't live in a weed-legal state, but I've traveled to those states. I had to show ID for that as well!
