semi-legal related

unfortunately, i was busted recently.

it was a late night my friend and his girl were drunk so i was driving his car. after driving literally 2 blocks for the first time since getting to college a couple weeks prior, i got zanched. i had about 3/4 an ounce of nuggets on me in one bag and a 20 nug in a little one. anyway, we get "pulled over" on campus in a parking lot at like 12:30 at night. although we had yet to blaze and the car probably didn't smell, i was loading one as the cop approached with its headlights off. i ditched my big bag in the center console and i quickly shoved my pipe and little bag under the seat after the fuzz walked to his car with my license. i had a digi under a cd case by my friend and 6 or 7 sandwich bags in my rear pocket. needless to say, the cop hassled us, cavity searched us, grabbed our nuts, and did a very thorough frisking. one cop jussled my friends crotch for 30 seconds convinced weed would fall out though of course he had none. they held us there for an hour or two an even called a city po to come with a narc dog because they thought they found a baggy with coke or meth residue or some shit, even though none of the people i know fuck with that.

my friend and his girl got off with cheap minors. on the other hand, i got a possession of marijuana in a motor vehicle ticket for $192. i sent in my check the next day and was glad to put it behind. then like two weeks later, the dmv sends me a letter saying my license has been suspended for 30 days beacuse of "selling/possessing a controlled substance while operating a motor vehicle." i get the indication that this is very similar to a dwi in terms of consequences. i also have to take a dwi/drug written test, as well as pay a reinstatement fee and pay for an application for a new license.

on to my questions, if any of you have had your license revoked for something similar: i don't have to worry at all about any physical urine/drug tests do i?

also, i read on-line that the reinstatement fee is $680 + $18.50 for the new license application. is this shit really fucking true? the cops took $350 in buds from me, a 50 dollar pipe, a 200 dollar ticket, and now i have to pay another fucking $700 so i can drive to work and get on with my life? if anyone knows about anything about it not being $680 for a reinstatement fee, you should let me know. that little incident is turning into a $1,500 dollar two-month nightmare. fuck this. this occured in the largest city in minnesota.

Man, the United States is so fucking sickening. What has happenned to our country?
I mean, cannabis arrests are at it's highest, it's just...wrong..

I can't wait for the day the NORML movement prevails.

fuck harsh mate, feel for u, get out of that awful country..
