Over 20 grams? Sounds like he wasn't smoking for one.

How do you know? It says over 20 grams. He could have had a lot more than an oz

who is to decide what is a bad law? Someone who wants to drink and drive? Maybe we should pick some representatives to decide what is a good law and what is not. Oh wait, we already have that. Its called a government.
So what is your opinion of people who illegally smuggled slaves into the free states?
Was it wrong because the government said so? Because the majority was able to decide over the minority?
No.
The real truth is that as the deceleration of independence said, there are certain rights that are inalienable. Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Laws which go against those are infringing on human rights. Good laws are laws that protect people from having others infringe of them. Bad laws use the government(force) to project their majority onto the minority.
In the case of your drinking and driving example, the person who is doing that is clearly committing an act that is likely to infringe on the lives of others. Thus it is a good law.
There is no such justifications for someone being in possession of weed. Instead, the law infringes on everyone's basic rights of liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
It's not complicated, except for some people who think they have the right to tell others what to do, as long as enough people agree with them. frick those anti-American people.

You may have a point about marijuana laws. But comparing current marijuana laws to slavery is just ridiculous and an insult to everyone and everything. My main argument against the legalization of marijuana is that being high alters one’s cognitive functions. For proof of this, look at the pro marijuana guy comparing drug laws to slavery.

Because under 20g and over 20g are two different charges. He could have had more than an oz on him and the charge is still going to read “...over 20g.”
Maybe you should have Googled Florida State Statutes before you started calling posters stupid fricks. Just a thought...

Nobody is comparing marijuana laws to slavery. The laws of slavery are being mentioned to demonstrate that just because something is a law, it does not mean it's right.
Probably shouldn't be calling people dumb while showing a complete lack of reading comprehension.

It’s odd when people who claim to love Freedom side with a damaging and wasteful prohibition.

In a vacuum I would say by all means do whatever drugs you want. In a society their misuse is a root cause of a lot of ills and we are better off without them, including many prescription pain killers.
But freedom must include the freedom to fail if it is to have any value. So I’ll listen to any argument as to why various narcotics should be legal for uncontrolled use and until my mind is changed I’ll advocate actively and actually fighting a real war on drugs.

Maybe I didn’t follow their convo closely enough, but I figured he was simply referring to weed, which is far more benign than crack, alcohol and oxy.

Dude was arrested for weed and controlled substances without a prescription. But my position stands if the discussion is just weed too. I’m open to my mind being changed but until then prosecute for it.
I remember all the great arguments for legal weed from the 80s and 90s. All the great products we could have with legal weed. It was supposed to save the trees by replacing them in paper products, supposed to be better than cotton for clothes, supposed to be a medical marvel just waiting to be unleashed. Instead they just made it hit a bit different and sorta tax it. It literally adds no value to society outside a very limited scope in medical terms.

f it was a lot more than an ounce they would have said it was over an ounce, you stupid frick
quote:Because anything under 20 grams is a misdemeanor. Over 20 is a felony and they don't really care how over you are for the charging language. If he gets charged with intent, that charging document will have the actual amount he had to distribute. As someone else has already said, that charge will likely depend on how he had it packaged.
Why would they just randomly stop at 20 unless that was around the amount he had on him?

Sorry you don't understand that.
Also, not sure why it's "an odd hill to die on". I'm just posting an opinion.

From 20 grams to 25 pounds... it absolutely depends on the packaging. At 25 pounds in Florida you're now automatically in for trafficking. I promise they can take 2 dozen (23.x) pounds worth of plants out of your house and you can avoid (manufacturing) with intent.

I understand it and it works in theory. Unfortunately theoretically only works in the mind of a liberaltarian. And that’s the core issue of liberaltarians as a breed and why they will never amount to much as a political party. It all sounds great in theory but then reality hits and it all goes to shite.
But don’t worry. Odds are really good you will outgrow liberaltarian concepts. Most usually do anyway.

Yeah definitely the same thing as smoking something that comes out of the ground on its own.
