The largest county in Indiana announced Monday it will no longer prosecute simple marijuana possession cases.
Ryan Mears, the acting prosecutor of Marion County, which contains Indianapolis, said the end of prosecution against possession is “effective today.”
“If it is less than one ounce of marijuana, we are not going to file that charge,” Mr. Mears said, the Indianapolis Star reported.

More liberal insanity,
It is indeed. It’s basically saying that white peoplendont smoke dope. Who do they think they’re kidding!
Implying that it’s fair for everyone other the “People of Color”?
Does that apply to retail theft, AKA, shoplifting?
Speeding tickets? Littering? Domestic Violence?
Where does this insanity end?..................

THEY DID THIS IN CA. SHOPLIFTING GOT WORSE.
Theft, violence are real crimes. Using a plant for recreation is not, except that somebody made it so.
Of course! If there is no consequence for the actions, then the actions are free to be done at will................
Then the legislature, or whatever body is responsible, should repeal the law.................

That’s like saying one shouldn’t help free slaves. Whatever body must repeal the slavery laws.
More arbitrary nullification by a Democrat public official. Maybe we should change the president’s oath to say “faithfully execute the laws that I personally agree with.”
What in the ever lovin’...
How is that statement not just bald-faced racism? You mean that we all “know” that all Black people smoke dope?
Exactly!
Fortunately (?) people ‘of color’ usually have at least two ounces in every joint/blunt.
Oh no. People will be free to ingest a plant at will. The horror.
The replies to your post should be interesting. LOL
This is obvious deflection from Mayor Hogsett’s failures at running the city as violence increases in the city and Hogsett ignores it (like a good lil Democrat)
It’s also election season and this is a political kickback.
A great way to improve your crime stats and hail less black crime is simply not prosecute it. Works every time. Next will be rape, robbery and murder since blacks commit the greatest number of those crimes too.
No - they won’t.
It’s still against the law and if you’re caught with anything else I’m sure they’ll tack the charges on.
Also 1 oz is barely one blunt! And maybe less if you roll a fatty!
Good.
