I doubt it - if they aren't doing any coverage of Robin Prosser, why would they give a damn about someone being caught with half a joint?

Well I suppose I have forgotten the cardinal rule of illegal activities; what happens in you area does not neccessarily happen everywhere.

Around here, none of the cops are going to press charges for a joint, and it probably would get into the media. There's quite a bit of talk about decriminalization, and a regular joe getting his lifed ruined for a joint would be bad for the government.

I will agree it depends on attitude. I have had nothing but pleasant experiences with cops, and I've been pulled over many times. Once they do come to talk to me, I'm polite and my image does not suggest I'm involved in anything illegal. It's the perfect cover.

Even if you still have half a joint, no cop in the world would bring you up on charges. The media would have a field day, and that would open up debate, which is not a good thing for the War Against Drugs TM.
What are you smoking man. A buddy of mine got busted for possessing 1 bowl. Some punk at school narced on him. He got probation, a class, and a fine for 1 freaking bowl. Richard Pyror would have fun joking about that. Anyone remeber the $1.50 of cocaine? lol

where do you live? on the one hand you say your area has a relaxed attitude towards bud but on the other you claim that the marijuana laws in your area are so harsh that they could ruin a person's life for merely possessing a joint.

worst case scenario is that you end up spending a few nights in jail, and that's hardly having your life ruined.
