        I wouldn’t call it laughably small; it’s 2 pounds of cannabis, which is more than 60 joints. If you’re found with that many on you then a reasonable person could assume you intend to distribute.

        Every law is abusable by malicious people. It’s why cops can legally flip over the car of a pregnant woman because she took too long to pull over or why Floridians can shoot a black man for vague fears and “stand your ground.”

          Man, if 2 lbs is about 60 joints, I need to start shopping at different dispensaries. Joints are normally either 0.5 g. or 1 g. Using 1 g. joints for calculations, there are about 28 in an oz., or about 450 per lb. So there are about 900 1 g. joints in 2 lbs.

          How is it that Americans always turn posts into showcases of how small minded they are on both sides of the aisle? Even if they’re about an interesting event half a world away, two Americans just rip off their shirts and start pinching each other’s nipples as hard as they can, trying to look manly as they do it.

          Big brains will down vote and say “That’s not what I do. I look really manly while grabbing nipples”
