Tanks for the post on this. I didn't hear this yet. I was born and raised in Chicago and stayed there until I was 38. Now in California. Chicago (Illinois) is pretty backwards when it comes to MMJ and will probably be one of the last states to come on board. I got busted in 1975 w/ 5 lbs. bagged in ounces. When I went to court, there was magically only 3.5 lbs.!!! Still got into a mess but what ever happened to the 1-1/2? The cops there are all fat and eat a lot of donuts...

They get a lot of tourism from michigan too, this will bring more. If I have a half oz and I am there watching the Lions beat the living piss out of the Bears, I should be good.

Chicago PD let me slide pretty big time as a young hoodlum at a Phish concert. They just dumped and stomped on, 2oz of shrooms eighthed up and an once and some change of herb. It was a pretty big deal, at the time I was 16 and my parents would have had to come out from NY to bail me out. I have nothing but love for CPD.
