It seems all you like to talk about are your (likely fabricated) drug-related shenanigans.

Yep, it's a good thing they're incarcerating people for 1 gram of pot in Texas. Got to keep the quality of life up there you know.

Let's see, we could let him off with a slap on the wrist and he could go back to work and be a productive member of society or we could toss him in jail for a month, at taxpayer's expense.

It wouldn't shock me if you start seeing Texas enact laws banning even thinking about cannabis.

* With no prior felony convictions, if convicted of possession of less than one pound of marijuana a judge must impose a sentence of probation with mandatory drug treatment. If no treatment center exists within the jurisdiction, the judge may waive the treatment requirement. They judge can also waive all fines.

also

2 oz or less* class B misdemeanor 180 days $2,000
2 to 4 oz* class A misdemeanor 1 year $4,000
4 oz to 1 lb* state jail felony 180 days - 2 years $10,000

Less than 4 ounces is a misdemeanor. As a libertarian I still find it far from ideal, but hardly draconian.

Thats a pretty harsh penalty for a gram. Did he get a lawyer? I only got 20 hrs community service. When I had my car searched in NYC they found a z and pretty much ignored it. I think they were looking for weapons and harder drugs.

the first reason this is BS....no one measures MJ by the gram. That's coke. Pot is measured in ounces and pounds.

Not in Canada. In High School, you'll see kids measure it by the gram/0.5. $10/$5 respectively. The reason for this is a quick session before classes/during lunch.

Once you get into higher grade bud, it is measured by the gram.

Not like it matters to the cops. 1g of schwag = 1g of ECSD for all they care.

now he's looking at max penalty of 180 days (it will be probated)
drug ed class
60+ hrs community service
suspended license for 6 months
narcotics anon classes
and $1000+ in fines
not to mention the $1000 bail.


all for 1 gram. that's about 1 cigarette worth for the non weed savvy people.

Texas pot laws are RIDICULOUS.

There should be mandatory jail time for such nonsense posting on AT.
