    Felony for five eggs containing a combined 7 grams of weed.

    Taxpayers paying $65,000+ a year for several years to jail a guy giving away a substance legally available to purchase a few hundred km away…for at most 20 people-hours of stoned time.

      The Cannabis laws in Texas are an absolute joke right now, I can walk 10 minutes to a local vape store and buy an ounce of “THC-a Hemp” that is completely indistinguishable from flower in a legal state. The only difference being that Texas is almost wholly unregulated, and The state is unable to collect extra tax revenue.

      The legislature has made this one of their highest priorities, and it’s probably going away. For now though, there’s a very good chance that whatever was in those Easter eggs is actually perfectly legal under Texan law.
