WILL SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!
What most people don't even realize is that Nevada has gone from being one of the most strict states when it comes to marijuana possession...
(anyone remember the signs from LA to Vegas said something like..."If we even find a seed in your ashtray...")
now to already one of the more lenient states in the country.
Medical marijuana is legal here...and possession is decriminalized to a certain extent.
The most you'll get right now is a ticket
Here's the rundown: NONE = NO INCARCERATION
Age 21 years or over, any amount (first offense) misdemeanor none* $600
Age 21 years or over, any amount (second offense) misdemeanor none* $1,000
Age 21 years or over, any amount (third offense) misdemeanor 1 year $2,000
Age 21 years or over, any amount (fourth offense) felony 1 - 4 years $5,000
Age less than 21 years less than 1 oz (first and second offense) felony 1 - 4 years** $5,000
Age less than 21 years less than 1 oz (third offense) felony 1 - 4 years $5,00
*Possible drug treatment.
**Probation usually granted for 1st and 2nd offenses.
Medical use permitted if less than 1 oz or 3 to 4 plants.
Now for those ignorant enough to think that if it's LEGALIZED this means people can smoke it in public places...you're so full of shit and just another proud member of the herd.
Here's the breakdown of Nevadas question 9 which is the initiative to legalize small amounts of marijuana:
1. As used in this section, "marijuana" means a plant of the genus Cannabis or its product.
2. The use or possession of three ounces or less of marijuana by a person who has attained the age of 21 years is not cause for arrest, civil or criminal penalty, or seizure or forfeiture of assets.
3. The legislature shall provide or maintain penalties for:
(a) Driving dangerously, or operating heavy machinery, while under the influence of marijuana.
(b) The distribution or sale of marijuana to, and the possession or use of marijuana by, persons who have not attained the age of 21 years.
(c) The smoking of marijuana in a vehicle or public place, including a publicly operated carrier of passengers, a public park, or a place where gaming is permitted.
(d) The distribution, sale, possession, or use of marijuana on the premises of a jail, prison, or public school.
Take notice...your children will be safe...lol
No smoking in public...no sales at school (which greatly affects my income ;) )
And another point people are forgetting when it comes to why pot was criminalized in the first place....let's not forget about the TEXTILE INDUSTRIES.
