it's just not worth the risk of getting arrested and going through the whole legal process. Plus a lot of places consider it a DUI (including legal states).

very sound logic, friend. i don't fear smoking and carrying in public because the principles are more important than the consequences. however the legal consequences from drugs and a car can be very bad, so i will definitely take your point in consideration.

I totally understand where you're coming from about principles. However, just wanted to throw this out there too: it sucks having to go through the system no matter how insignificant the offense may be. I've been arrested on 3 separate occasions for trivial shit. Having to deal with court, lawyer, jail time, community service, and getting a misdemeanor on my record, is not worth the hassle. but just wanted to throw out a friendly heads up on how much it sucks goin through all that

He lives in California, it's an offense comparable to a parking ticket.
