It is still a federal offense. Just because they give you a ticket instead of hauling you to jail does not mean it is no longer illegal. It is still a crime. An infraction is still a crime. If it was not a crime, they would not be able to ticket you. Twist it however you want...you seem to be good at it.

What law is pot break in Ohio? It doesn't. What law am I breaking federally? I'm not, use is not illegal, so you tell me, what the fuck did I do wrong? You forget I enlisted and got out under Clinton too. Pot in Ohio has been decriminalized, it's an infraction, not a crime. As I'm not going across state borders the federal government should have nothing to say about it, and doesn't provided I'm not possessing at distribution levels. I haven't been accused or convicted of a God damned thing. On Jun 1, 2014 5:07 PM, "Eric Roberts" <[email protected]> wrote: > > Bullshit Tim.
