RoyDempsey, is that you, back from your Google search? Slander is referring to an argument as the “lies of the pot heads,” which Davebarry109 so eloquently wrote. Questioning his drug choice, whether that be caffeine, nicotine, or heroin, seemed logical given his frequent comments.

You speak of felony narcotics cases. In Rhode Island, one could be charged with a felony for growing a single cannabis plant in a back yard garden, punishable with a possible maximum sentence of 30 years imprisonment and a possible maximum fine of $100,000. Grow too many and one could face a life sentence. Realistically, those sentences may or may not ever be imposed, but the risk is there because the ridiculous laws are there.

For decades Rhode Island law enforcement officials did “waste time on pot arrests.” The damage those arrests caused can still be seen by those who were incarcerated, as well as their future employment opportunities.
