sounds like a POTUS candidate...

With a cannabis violation, there's no inherent violation of another's rights

my (former) next door neighbors teen son ran off a few years back. when found by police, he said "my mom smokes pot! i don't want to live with her..."(because she was mean and made him clean the house and do his homework ) and the officer talking to him said (in front of witnesses)" we don't care if she smokes pot as long as she feeds/clothes you and gets you to school. you don't know how damn lucky you are..." Tennessee is NOT a liberal place, but sometimes i wonder...

As an adolescent already engaged in some amount of activism, I had acquaintances and friends who the local (somewhat notoriously unruly) PD in SW Michigan had, on occasion, simply scattered their pot on the ground when found, sending them home.

Me, on the other hand, probably both due to the amounts I was sometimes caught with (of both larger quantities of pot and once or twice, other drugs like a quantity of hallucinogens) and due to my confrontational style in activism back then, (i.e. following a raid on a guy's trailer who supposedly had hashish and amphetamines, but only had antihistamines when the dust settled out, and when he 'escorted' the vice cops out of his trailer/home, tossing them out the front door, one Vice Detective Helsel, whirled around and put a home-loaded 9mm hollow-point slug or 2 through the guy's chest that was loaded so hot it went out the other wall behind where he was standing in his own trailer's open door, through both walls of the trailer next door to his, and bounced off the exterior near wall of the trailer next to that one).

I believe I was about 15 going on 16 years old at that time, and I phoned their PD, asking them if they were aware that even under the Geneva Convention, use of hollow-point ammo was unlawful against a declared enemy of war, yet they were using them on the (apparently innocent) citizens they swore an oath to protect... who didn't have the dope they'd alleged, who they shot for simply telling their intrusive asses to get the fuck out.

Wyoming Michigan PD, sometimes referred to as 'The Wyoming Cowboys', who had a notably higher rate of 'accidental shootings' than average, nationally, per capita.

I knew a decent cop on their force who ended up acting as an informal Big Brother to me, a neighbor and 'friend' without the private non-profit's involvement.

But confronting them about their lunacy didn't gain any privileges.

The guy they shot in that case, by the way, lived. Helsel had placed a cigarette cellophane over his chest wound to keep the punctured lung from fully deflating, and he and his mother appeared on the news on camera at his hospital bed side, talking about the misbehavior by our 'protectors.'
