I hope this will push you from arguing with each other and discussing
what this topic is about "Marijuana Law" and i hope it opens your eyes
to the fact that marijuana laws are not only about weather you can
possess them but also about how the government can make money off them
and increase the range of their power.
The Texas Constitution's Bill Of Rights states that "No person
shall ever be imprisoned for debt."
http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/txconst/sections/cn000100-001800.html
and all forms of state tax except for the controlled substances tax
http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/statutes/docs/TX/content/htm/tx.002.00.000159.00.htm
have no CRIMINAL PROVISIONS including imprisonment. I know people will
find accounts of double jeopardy related to this tax but the question
remains can a person that has not paid the tax on the marijuana they
possessed can they be jailed or even threatened with jail?
There is also an entry in the Texas Constitution's Bill Of Rights
stating that "all laws contrary thereto, or to the following
provisions, shall be void."
http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/txconst/sections/cn000100-002900.html
Referring back to the "No person shall ever be imprisoned for debt"
and how a person can be imprisoned for not paying a tax debt.
I have experienced imprisonment for not paying my marijuana tax and the
lawyer I was appointed by the state did nothing to defend me. He only
told me that I was guilty and should take probation or I will be put in
jail. I think he was pleasing a county that kept his wallet fat in
return for convincing his clients they had no defense.
