I'm from Texas where at one time, a seed in possession would get you 10-15 yrs. in Huntsville. When I moved to Hawaii, I was astounded by the leniency of the authorities here. It took me about 6 months to find "that guy", way over in Waianae on the west coast. If you know Hawaii, even a short 15 mile trip seems to be an eternity on the road as the locals have made it out to be, "erthing is long way". My adult son and I unwisely go, buy, start back, clean and sober, and with it stored in the ash tray, but the aroma of the raw and manicured stuff was overpowering in the car. I see the lights, my heart sinks, I've just scored a tremendous job, home, etc. I see it slipping away as the big ole Hawaiian officer comes up to my side. "Brah, tail light wen go out", Oh, ok, I'll get that fixed as soon as I get back home. "eh, you holdin in dis one cah"..Uh, yes officer. "You no smoke em hea, right?" No, of course not officer! Well, you stay goin back home and no let me catch you hea one time again".. Thank you officer. We drove away, let go of our held breath, chuckled and realized that they don't really care. After that, I've never really worried cause I stay at home with it in the first place. Now, they come to me....;-)
