What's that got to do with anything? That jackass from GA just got his way. That country-ass bullshit will be here soon, all "this is how we do thangs in Mississippi, boy!"

They'll have chaingangs doing all the landscaping for old plantation houses that need to be disassembled and imported piece by piece from Florida.

They'll import all their human rights abuses, fuck everything up, make mushrooms illegal again, and fuck with everyone.

Oh well. It doesnt happen.

Less than 4% of the US State prison population is in for possession as their greatest crime.

So… lets do some logic.

Possession… probably not weed? More likely a harder substance.

Which beibgs up the next point.. when 90+% of all sentences are the result of a plea you can look at that 4% as a remainder from more serious charges.

Ie found with drugs and a weapon. Plead to drug charge but got time because they should as a result of the weapon (or assault or robbery etc)

So anyways.. not too idiotic of a thing to know.

Yeah, you're right. all they did for my weed possession charges was hold me long enough for both my jobs to fire me, have me show up to piss in a cup during business hours once a week for months (causing me to lose 20% of the earnings from my new job), and put me on the stand right after three dirty old men who were diddling kids, as if my possession of weed was just as bad as them. I even asked the judge why tf I was up on the stand after the gross pedos, and he was all "if you don't like it, bother the statehouse."

The black guys in the car with me didn't get let out of jail for a long time, though. A very long time.

Edit: stupid fucking app.

I think so -- in my book it involves actually threatening someone and taking the vehicle. Not crimes of opportunity like jumping behind the wheel of a car someone was dumb enough to leave running unattended. Seems like current parlance is just about every auto theft is a carjacking.
