Gotta get that probable cause to search for weed.

Recreational weed has been legal in NY for years

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Not if there is a federal agent. It is legal here in NM but the feds are constantly seizing pot because it is not legal at a federal level.

It's gonna be fun when it's legal in all 50 states at the state level, but still illegal federally.

Wait, did I say fun? I meant bullshit. It's going to be bullshit.

I don't think federal agents are using these scanners to find people carrying weed

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That is up to the state's attorney general whether to go after drug offense or not

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

I guess tell that to the federal agents seizing legal cannabis.

[–] Arbiter@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Sorry, just replace weed with crack.
