10 months ago a local guy who works for the city on road crews dropped off the car for a full paint job. Seemed nice enough, was starting his own paving business ect ect. Ran into him and like any enthusiast he went on and on about his IROC

Car sat and sat and sat, asked my neighbor about it, seems a month after the guy dropped the car off he was arrested for marijuana, but it was a technical violation on his medical marijuana growth and usage rules. I guess the guy has some kind of permit for growing medical marijuana for some illness he has. Something about plants not being disposed of at a certain point, but apparently this guy went to jail for seven months because he had 4 existing plants when he planted another 6.

Dumbest thing Ive ever heard, because of some technical violation and I believe some prior issues with this technical issue of how many plants at what time of growth, he goes to jail for half a year, and the rest of us get to pay for his room and board, and meanwhile hes not out working and supporting his family and expanding his business.
This is the kind of stuff that the hard core 'to the ramparts!' on drugs crowd such as our own Larry don't get. And there are parents in jail for non-violent possession who in spite of using drugs are still a stabilizing influence on their families. But with daddy in jail, the kids get into more trouble than they would have if he were there.
