HAHA - that HUGE amount of 1/4oz!Das Boot said:
It amounts to 7 grams. Do you know what the 'street value' even is on pot? It's $10 a gram ON THE HIGH END. Its usually less. That's like nothing. Its what an average personal smoker buys for a week.
You should also know that an average small plastic sandwich baggie weighs almost a gram (just weighed one, it's .9 grams actually). Triple that weight(at least) if he was holding it in a ziplock. The cops ALWAYS weigh the baggie as well. So we're probably really only looking at 40-50 bucks worth of weed here (in a sandwich bag, mor elike only 20-30 in a ziplock). You realize these cops decided a chocolate ball was worth $800 bucks based on weight? That doesn't strike you as just a tad completely ridiculous?
What time is it there? I read this and thought "Wow big day ahead of you huh" then realized that your time is way different than mind.rolfwesselius said:
OT: Loser
Kinda sad the money that will be wasted on this "felony bust" after everything is all said and done they will hit him with the biggest fees they can just to make up for the low cost of the actual crime.
No, he deserves support from his friends, family, lawyers, etc. The support I am criticizing is what he will inevitably get from the internet community at large. He committed a crime, he'll plead his case and he'll pay for it if found guilty. I know the internet will find a way to make this more complicated than it should be.Hammeroj said:
This chain is rather spliffy? I know it was terrible but you guys are awesome.Mike Kayatta said:
Because the difference between $15 dollars and maybe $150 (if prices are high in your area) is huge.... it just happens that he got caught in a crappy state. In Ny this wouldn't even be a misdemeanor, it would be a civil citation and fine of about $100.Das Boot said:
Ah Texas and their backward laws. The fact that cannabis is still illegal in the 21st century is a fracking travesty. Good waste of taxpayer money right there. Now maybe that sherrif can go bust some real criminals.
See that's a stance I can get behind. I was being critical of people supporting him because of who he is, not because of what he did.Hammeroj said:
Fun fact: I was part of a jury selection a few weeks back for a drug case and when they asked the question, "Do you think marijuana should be legalized?" I didn't raise my hand because I thought it was a trap
it is a trap, assuming (and IANAL) that they are screening for the same thing when they ask whether you support the death penalty in any case. They will disqualify you based on how you answer if the death penalty is in play.Fappy said:See that's a stance I can get behind.

My strategy was to be as anonymous as possible and answer as few questions as was necessary so that when the lawyers discussed who they wanted and didn't want they wouldn't even remember who I was. It worked!Richard Allen said:it is a trap, assuming (and IANAL) that they are screening for the same thing when they ask whether you support the death penalty in any case.

I'm glad we could all come together for some joint observations on this matter.Richard Allen said:
I dont really have any sympathy for this guy, so yeah. but I dont think he'll go through texas again.
LOL!
Can't say that I'm totally surprised by this, and of all the things he could've gotten nailed for, it was the sweet leaf.
I wonder if he owns a map because he seriously should've known better since he was clearly not in California anymore.

Finally Texas does something with the law worthy of praise. Is it too late to repeal the death sentence for the mentally handicapped? Darn. Let's see how he hacks his way out of a night in the pokey with Jim-Billy Jones, serial molester.
Most white kids don't expect their cars to be searched, especially not by dogs I've driven through states with more then that, with no worries. He was quite possibly in one of the worst areas in the country for this to happen in =/Fiz_The_Toaster said:
