    Laws - View Law: POSSESSION AND USE OF MARIJUANA


    Possession and Use of Marijuana

    Possession and use of marijuana is either a felony or a misdemeanor. Possession of marijuana that you intend to sell is a felony. Possession and use of marijuana can result in probation, attending classes on the harmful effects of drugs, and performing community service. (ARS 13-3405). You may also lose your driving privileges.

    An adjudication on a marijuana charge goes on your record and can follow you throughout your life. For example, a candidate for a U.S. Supreme Court appointment was disqualified after admitting he had used marijuana as a student.

    The two opposites, either one is totally against drugs, or they are totally for their legalisation. In my opinion, it can stay the way it is. I know people who ruined their chances in life because of marihuana, but not everyone is irresponsible in handling light drugs. I smoked weed six times in a matter of over a year, that isn't often, and I can handle it quite well. Like everything, who have to know the limits, only exorbitance brings you to your ruin, not the consumption itself.
