Hi Mike,
Go back a couple of messages maybe. My reference to possession and sale. Your example is indeed possession, and your local laws might get you a trip to the station. Here, the pot gets confiscated and you are handed an appearance ticket. You know, like having a tail light out. Minimum $45 fine. End of story. You may walk into a police station stoned out of your gourd - best they can do is public intoxication. That's the law.
>>Therein lies the major difference - possession of less than 25 grams is a misdemeanor. I don't know of a single person who ever went to jail for smoking pot.

>Well, what exactly do you mean went to jail? THere could be a difference. Around here, if you're caught with a pipe or any amount of cannabis, they take you to the station and put you in a cell until you bail yourself out. You may never get a jail sentence when court comes around, but you were put in jail.
