New York Time 1994 said:Issuing its first opinion of the term, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously today that conspiring to commit a narcotics crime can be a violation of Federal law even if the conspiracy is never carried out.
[FONT=Arial said:21 U.S.C. § 846[/FONT]]Any person who attempts or conspires to commit any offense defined in this subchapter shall be subject to the same penalties as those prescribed for the offense, the commission of which was the object of the attempt or conspiracy.

scary stuff huh? :holysheep:
The problem that under 30 face is that by the time you guys got to hear about "DARE" and all that you were already not paying attention. my generation had it crammed down our throats. We were petrified of drugs all through elementary school and begin of middle. One puff and your dead with the brainwashing ads that even make the ones on TV now look moderate.
I was preached at that even talking about drugs was a crime. and really it sorta is. Drugs was a scourge and it wasn't the "reefermadness" stuff it was the mainstreaming of crack and basically just told every kid if you do any drug your a crackhead.
We have a loong way to go.
I really don't think many people unless busted or in law or have family either way (i was preached at on the drug laws as a teen..my dad hated the laws but figured teach me the truth and it will help keep my *** outa trouble...which he was right. tought me to play smart ) the ones that haven't been educated or researched know just how serious the feds are on the WOD. The federal level 1-3 prisons are filled with people who just committed a conspiracy crime without actually "doing" it. Anyone who thinks about growing should really research what exactly they are getting into
I have sen with my own two eyes someone gave someone a lift (2 good friends back in the day)...the passenger was carrying (the driver didn't know...he didn't toke or anything)...they drove over state lines. They offered the dude that was carrying it "tell us the other guy knew about the drugs...we'll make it easy on ya" He did, the driver got transportation, intent to distribute, conspiracy, and a few others..the other guy basically walked. All fell under the conspiracy act. He ended up facing 1 fed and 2 state courts and geting federal charges. ruined him..and all he did was give a bro a lift to a mall. In the passengers defense he had no idea what he said would cause. He thought yeah whats the worse that can happen to him probation? try 3 yrs. and feds don't have parole.
So by the letter of the law...we all have committed a fed crime. (like thats news to us....)
but like (hate to bring ya up Sma but yours is a good example) but when you said you don't grow now when you posted up some info...you do have a GJ here and we helped you learn how to do it...so by essence thats a conspiracy. If you wanted to be technical...why we are so picky on revealing yourselves and how a few other sites are run is insane.
