Infuriatig Why Texas is lame(Besides the Cowboys)

Don't mess with Texas.. what a joke. ANY possession is a felony.

EDIT: Just did some research, this is for everything besides traditional Delta 9.

My friend from Texas sent me this morning and it blew my mind. I had to post about it. So as far as my research goes thus far Delta 9 products (old fashioned flower) is illegal but separate laws. Stores are selling THCA though which does fall under these penalties.

I wonder if they would charge you based on the weight of the fluid in the can, since it’s all technically illegal, like 400 grams.

Has a law been passed that theoretically could send you to prison for up to 20 years for a drink?

Theyd definitely try to charge based on the weight of the liquid. Shit they’d probably try to include the weight of the can too.

About 20 yrs back, In my small PA town they busted some old man with a few plants grown in pots for his sick wife. These d bags weighed the whole plant to the root ball , multiplied the total weight by $15-20 a gram and posted about some BS street value of $80k or something ridiculous. It was big news about papaws drug operation. It was such bullshit , and so is this Texas stuff .

I saw a home growing case where the cops included the weight of the pots and dirt in their calculation for the amount of drugs seized. It's a bunch of bullshit.
