What a shit hole

Is this what freedom feels like?

Damn, I legally bought in the last year, in the same country, enough to get life in prison.

400 grams is just over the legal possession limit in Oklahoma… literally a neighboring state.

I see its explicitly UNDER 1g. I can buy a 1g joint for $1, legally. With the paper and packaging, which they always weight to bump up the number, that's over 1g. So a single $1 joint from any of the surrounding states and you're now a felon facing 10 years. For a single joint.

Please let Texas(and the whole south) seceded. The US would gain money by cutting off the south, they're the heaviest welfare drainers that contribute nothing.

Seems about right for Texas. I wonder what the minimum penalties are.

If you're within 10 blocks of 1 gram of weed they get to shoot you non-lethally and take your children.

Tell me more about the "take your children" clause. Ours are teenagers and we could use a break.
