    For real, I knew a guy that kept an ounce as his daily supply. As in, he’d set aside an ounce each day for casual smoking with friends. This whole four month raid was over three days of heavy college smoking. The demonization of marijuana is such a ridiculous waste, and leads to weird stuff like selling K2, which is a shittier version of weed, with actual risks as you can overdose on K2.

        I mean, sure, but raiding two military bases and facing 5 years to life for having some vape juice and a couple ounces of synthetic marijuana spread across twenty some people is absurd. Especially when places are steadily legalizing marijuana.

          Counterpoint, if you are willing to risk life in prison and dishonorable discharge for some vape juice maybe it’s good you’re not in the military anymore.

            Yeah, vape juice, what a stupid risk. They should just do like the rest of the military and commit to completely legal alcoholism. How dare they partake in a cheaper and far less dangerous alternative.

            US military bases usually count as US territory subject to our laws, the difference between UCMJ charges for K2 possession/trafficking and South Korea’s is enormous. Normally this would have been handled in house.
