CapeCodOnline.com – A doctor associated with issuing medical marijuana certificates on the Cape was arrested in his home for disturbing the peace, a civil rights violation, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and threatening to commit murder.

At around 11:30 p.m. May 26, Dr. Walter Richter’s neighbor called the police to report that Richter had been yelling obscenities and threats at him, according to records in Orleans District Court.

The neighbor told police Richter, 62, of 3 Upper Miller Hill Road, had been angry with their plans to use their barn as a place to host artistic events. Richter told the neighbor he wanted to shoot him in the head, records say. He also called the neighbor and his friends an anti-gay epithet and said, “I’m going to murder you all,” according to court records.

Richter has been a doctor for Canna Care Docs, which opened in March in South Dennis and issues medical marijuana certificates to patients wishing to use marijuana for pain, nausea and other conditions.

We are all thinking the same thing here right? That never, in the history of earth, has a doctor ever needed to prescribe himself some of his own medicine more than this guy. It is quite obvious that this dude needs to chill out and smoke a J.

Here’s the thing though, take the fact that this guy is a marijuana doctor out of the equation and we still have some major irony going on here. Walter, buddy, if you don’t like gay people or artistic events held in barns then you really shouldn’t be living in Provincetown. There’s a gay artist in a barn on pretty much every street in P-Town bro.

This article reminds me of the people that moved next door to the train tracks in Sandwich 160 years after they were built, and then complained to the town about the sound of the train whistle. If you don’t want to hear a train whistle, don’t move next to the train tracks. If you don’t like gay art barns don’t move to Provincetown, it’s not rocket science Dr. Richter.

CapeCodOnline.com – If finding an ant in your Cheerios sends shivers down your spine, Chef Gordon has something you ought to know.

“How many of you have ever eaten a bug?” Gordon asked Saturday at Heritage Museums & Gardens’ Big Bugs Bash. After only a few audience members raised their hands, he dropped the bomb: “I want to tell you, you have all eaten bugs whether you know it or not.”

David George Gordon, otherwise known as the “Bug Chef,” has made it his mission to change the way people view creepy crawlers by incorporating them into gourmet meals. After publishing “The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook” in 1998, Gordon has traveled around the States demonstrating the art of “entomophagy,” a term he finds more elegant than “bug eating.”

“I really like tweaking people’s ideas about food,” Gordon said. “People have a bad attitude about bugs. They think they’re germy, gross and disgusting, but they’re not.”

In Saturday’s demonstration, Gordon explained that eating bugs is unavoidable, since there are bug parts in the majority of everyday food. Even that go-to peanut butter and jelly sandwich could contain up to 56 bug parts, he says. But before you toss your jelly jars, Chef Gordon urges you to consider that not only are bugs all natural, but they are high in Omega 3s, vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids. He also noted that the West is in the minority when it comes to eating bugs, since roughly 80 percent of the world’s population does so regularly.

Slow your roll there Bugs McGee. I don’t care how many Singaporean suckers bought your bug cook book or how much Omega 3s is in a Praying Mantis, I’m all set with eating bugs.

I’m fine with being in the so called “western minority”, I’ll stay firmly in the 20% bracket thanks. The other 80% can go occupy Cricket Street, live in tents, play hackey sack and eat grilled flea sandwiches for all I care, I have zero problem being elitist when it comes to snacking on spiders.

Oh and how about him telling us bugs are all natural? Talk about grasping at straws trying to convince people to do something disgusting. No shit they are all natural, did you think we thought they were made of synthetic compounds?

You know why people in other countries eat bugs? Because they don’t have anything else to eat and they get desperate. You know what I do when I don’t have anything to eat and I’m desperate? I order fucking Domino’s.
