sorry to raise a dead post but what does this mean in the above post...is it legal to buy the seeds off of the website in the state of wisconsin.

i live in wisconsin and am very interested in these laws because i would like to by some afgan cannabis seeds. but i don't want the government to come knocking at my door about it.

vern

No, federal law rules over state law. State over local/city. Still illegal.

From your quote of the regulation, that's not right.

That says you can have an ounce of hash or four ounces of buds.

Note also that these are Madison municipal regulations. Outside city limits, state laws apply: possession of any amount is a misdemeanor carrying the possibility of six months in jail and/or a $1,000 fine. That's for a first offense. Subsequent offenses are a felony with the possibility of 3.5 years in jail and a $10,000 fine.

lso, theres really nothing stopping the police from charging you under state laws if they so choose. When possession of 1 oz or less was legalized in Denver, possession arrests actually went UP...officers, rather than following the will of the voters, simply began arresting people under Co. law rather than the city ordinance
