Well that's why we have open container laws too. I'm not talking about driving home from the liquor store after buying a case of beer, in terms of the concern. I guess we have to hope that this guy just happened to be driving home after buying some pot, which was neatly packaged for smoking when he arrived safely at his destination. Alcohol, pot, cocaine...whatever, it is a danger when you combine it with an automobile. That's the only point I'm trying to make. I'm not trying to say someone should be in trouble for thinking about smoking some pot. That's not what the write up says happened. The guy was speeding, he had pot and stuff and that's why he got in trouble. He wasn't just sitting around "thinking." |

While the "potential" was there, that is something that you cant prove. There is "potential" if you were driving with liquor or beer in your car too. Luckily you cant be convicted of Thoughtcrime yet.
Thoughtcrime does not entail death: thoughtcrime is death.

I understand. That's why I said potential of driving under the influence. It still represents a danger to my mind. |

He was charged with 'Drug Possession,' not DUI. |

What harm did the man do to others?
It's a bogus human-made 'law' that says you cannot posses a certain kind of plant! |
