Murder, rape, robbery, treason, espionage, trafficking, assault, kidnapping, embezzlement, and burglary are felonies - not marijuana possession. That is ridiculous.

In Washington (you still live there right?), less than 40g is considered a misdemeanor and is punishiable by a $250-500 fine or 1-90 days incarceration.

So presumably it was the police who charged you with a felony? If so, I doubt the courts would agree and sentence you instead as having committed a misdemeanor. 1 gram and 40 are quite far apart.

holy crap, if what Monkey says is true (i'm too lazy to clicky the linky) FIGHT THE BASTARDS! You have every right to fight them! Don't let them demote you and stereotype you as some "stoner loser" guy. Show them you're better than the stereotype!

Fight the Man! *shakeyfist*

I don't see how they can charge you with a felony for that. I'm assuming you're going to court for this..?

Yeah. That seems like a fishy sentence for a bowlful.

Yes I am going to court.

No I do not know the date as of yet.

this information will be posted as soon as I know.

=| Honestly... I don't see how a bowl can get you a felony. You can get more jailtime for posession than rape. But, I heard that if you have less that an ounce of weed, in one bag, NOT dime bag, you will slide with only a $65 cdn fine.

The American justive system is just plain ********>

I really hope that this is just a bunch of bull s**t to scare you. If you get a felony I will be seriously PISSED!

Why the ******** is this s**t illegal, seriously it make NO sense to me!!!
PostPosted: Fri Mar 28, 2008 8:00 am


It's illegal because the people that make the rules don't understand. Or care.

I hate the whole "oh, she does drugs so she must be a lazy, unmotivated troublemaker." thing.

It's bullshit.
The government needs to open their eyes and realize that we have so many more important matters at hand than ******** over potheads.

Like when someone can murder someone else and a pot dealer gets more time in prison then them.
Seriously. Wtf
I am SICK of paying for stupid s**t like that.

They are doing the good poeple of this world a favor. Stress can lead to death. Stress can lead to a lot of s**t... and we have one of the best NATURAL solutions for it..... and we cant use it.... but put all this other man made s**t in your body.. cause thats better right?
Bullshit!

Damn, Eddy I am sorry this has to happen to you!
I cannot believe that they would seriously charge you with a felony over a fricking BOWL.
What the s**t .

Here in Van, BC, if cops found you smoking a bowl, the most they'd do is take away your piece or give you a fine, if not just laugh at you and tell you to have a good night! s**t, son ... that sucks!!!!!!

Only about a week! That's not too bad. You'll just have to celebrate 4:20 a little late.

I hope all goes in your favor, though. That's a shitty situation.
