I got caught with weed in Oklahoma before it was made legal medically. Was driving with it. Was under the influence. Told the cops a (true) sob story, about how I have student loans and a business and a kid and credit cards to pay and how I’d never recover if I got arrested.

Cop takes my vape and my weed. Gives me a ticket. Let’s me go. I call in to figure shit out, nothing showed up about the weed.

I could’ve been arrested, had the vehicle towed, could’ve been charged with possession and DUI but I got off with nothing.

Good for me but really sucks knowing a cop can just arbitrarily decide if you’re going home all right, dying or having your entire life destroyed in a matter of moments.
