I’ve got an eighth of Scooby Snacks to give away. Nothing wrong with it, just not the strain for me.

I thought it can be legally given as a gift with all long as money doesn't change hands for that purpose. Not sure if I am supposed to post links here but from DarrowEverettLLP:

"Personal and Home Use Under the Act, individuals 21 years of age or older may legally:

  • Purchase up to one ounce of cannabis at a time (or the equivalent of one ounce of cannabis concentrate) from a licensed retailer.
  • Possess up to ten ounces per resident inside their primary residence.
  • Give away or “gift” up to one ounce of cannabis without remuneration to another person aged 21 years or older.
  • Possess cannabis-related accessories."

Seems like the third point there says clearly you can gift that amount away

That's why I said CHARGED. You are correct, but the police are not. Unless you're ready for a legal battle, be humble. This is coming from experience.

Regardless of whether or not you're found guilty, you'll potentially have to deal with 2+ year court case. You'll have to sign away your right to a speedy trial (no I'm not joking), and unless your cool with having a publicly assigned ninnompoop, you're going to have to pay your own way for a lawyer. I SUPPORT THE USE OF CANNABIS BUT BE CARFEFUL.

I honestly don’t think the RI PD give two shits

It depends on the situation. I don't suggest trying your luck.

Bro, it’s a bag of weed. Chill.

[–] Reverendender 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Seriously. What could they actually charge me with if I’m not breaking the law?

[–] WeirdGoesPro 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sir, I’m going to need you to stop being so criminally dank. /s
