Not legal in the Republic of Texas though.

REPORTED. See something, say something.

Sorry for doubting you.
It's no problem it's a rather recent phenomenon.

Even the new GOP Gov. in Florida is giving in...but no one should mistake that for the enlightened Democratic Policies elsewhere....he's doing it because he is already thinking about being a populist.

He's also declaring a "War on Red Tide" - in other words, an environmental emergency. This after Rick Scott spent 8 years destroying all plans to mitigate it and declaring people have nothing to do with it!
Of course, it is unlikely he will face off with developers and the phosphate mining and big ag, but it makes a good talking point. And, hey, people believed everything Don said, so a normal looking guy can probably get away with that and more!

Turns out that the successful Republican of the future is likely to be...well...a Democrat when it comes to most all policy. That's one way of bringing the Grand Old Party out of their past!

Mexicans could grow good herb - but the "War on Drugs" and free market capitalism told them (and the Americans who were initially responsible for a lot of the importing) that small packages of more expensive stuff was The Way to Profits. Independently, California growers and others started growing really good stuff.

Now it's rec legal in our state - has been decrimed for a decade. It's amazing to think some states will still have people with guns arrest you and lock you up.

Wow. Unbelievable. You're a real piece of work. A VERY out of touch piece of work.

Very, very typical of a prohibitionist, to create a problem where none exists.

I've been using it for 48 years, and growing my own for 25 years. Are you going to report me too, along with the millions of others like me?

What a ______.

I don't. Prohibitionists really are that absurd.

How and where would such a report be filed?

I doubt it matters much to him. Calling the local police to get it off his chest may be enough to help him sleep tonight.

If that wasn't fulfilling enough, then the next call would be to the FBI.

If Sessions was still around I'm sure a call to him would have been in order too.

I doubt it. Unlike most Texans I know who subscribe to the “live and let live” philosophy, Loveshiscountry is an authoritarian who sees in black or white. That’s cool. Since I believe in living and letting live, my only response to him can be a laugh. The criminal penalty for marijuana possession in Travis County is a $45.00 fine and a four-hour class. I’m sure they’re already investigating this matter with their top men.
