Nate Oats to Alabama

[STEVEHOLT]

So dumb, cops wouldn’t bat an eye if it was 120 beers. And some pong cups.

That damn tax stamp

That damn tax stamp

What is a "tax stamp"? Is that the tattoo in the lower back?

Felony arrests always happen to Alabama right before the NCAA Tourney.
At least this guy didn't have a firearm.

Yeah but tobacco kills you dude! It is both extremely addictive and it kills you! And you can still buy cartons of the stuff at any convenience store or gas station in the entire nation to your hearts content (or discontent). Not much of a WAR. Would be much more mad at a friend or family member if I caught them with a pound of that stuff.

Tobacco itself probably wouldn't be that unhealthy if they didn't add all the chemicals to it - nicotine only occurs in small amounts naturally in cigarettes. It's the addictive elements, so they add more to it. There is ammonia in them, too.

He probably had enough weed where it was considered distribution level… Maybe that's not even legal, but he didn't have a tax stamp for his weed sales?

EDIT: if you were looking for another reason to never want to go to Alabama, read this Google summary:

"If you are arrested for marijuana possession in Alabama, authorities care about a "tax stamp" (or lack thereof) because it serves as an additional felony charge used to penalize individuals, particularly those suspected of dealing or possessing significant quantities. Alabama law requires that anyone in possession of illegal drugs—including marijuana—must purchase and affix a stamp from the Alabama Department of Revenue as proof that an excise tax has been paid."

So it's illegal to have and distribute marijuana in Alabama… But if they catch you with marijuana, they charge you with a felony for not having paid a tax for the thing is illegal to buy. The crazy thing is if they think he's selling it, he could actually go to jail for 10 years.

But he'll still probably play on Friday.

Racist Alabama cops probably didn't know that they were dealing with a member of the Crimson Tide. I imagine all charges will be dismissed.

You're probably right, but I was just being a dumbass.

He’s looking at 10 years. Yikes

Glad I saw this in time to change my bracket for tonight's bracket party I am going to.

 

[Forza Azzurri]

I am guessing that Holloway will appear before good ole JImmy Roberts - same judge that initally heard the Bediako case.

AD probably has Roberts on speed-dial...

 

[Cusefan0307]

As someone who is sick and tired of smelling pot in public venues, I cannot stand Albany.

I feel that way about cigarettes.

And that still happened when it was illegal.

At least you can drink and eat weed.

 

[Anstza]

Well, new studies show that heavy use does rot your brain cells and alters your appearance and speech patterns

Yes. And heavy abuse of Mcdonald’s leads to diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. Everything in moderation folks.

 

[Blanko97]

Isn't possessing that quantity still a crime in New York?

Of beer?

who is going to pay such a tax and thereby alert the authorities to having purchased the illegal substance in the first place ?
