Well yesterday, I was on the NORML website, looking at what laws each state has regarding marijuana, and I found out that a lot of states have the marijuana tax stamp law. Now, no one really does this, but I thought I'd tell everyone who doesn't know, because if you get busted, and live in a state with the law, you can get even more screwed over, and get more jail time for evading taxes.

Let me explain. The law requires you to put a stamp that says "Marijuana Tax Stamp" and your state name, on your bags of marijuana. Even though marijuana is illegal, you are legally required to tax stamp it.

Now, they did this only to screw people over. Most people aren't going to buy Marijuana Tax Stamps for fear of prosecution of possessing marijuana, since that is admitting you have some. So, if you buy these stamps, there's a great chance they will be aware that you possess cannabis. So, most people don't buy the stamps, most don't even know about it.

Now, since you are legally required to put these stamps on, you are legally required to file it on your taxes. Obviously doing so, is illegal, even though it's illegal not to.

So, if you get busted, and don't have your stamps on, the dumb ass prosecutor can say you were evading your taxes, and put you in jail for a long time, since that is an addition federal offense.

It's a lose-lose situation. And the sad thing is, is most people aren't even aware of this. Another loophole for the law the use to put innocent people behind bars.
