first off, smoking a joint is probably only a misdemeanor.....I think you have to have a certain amount on you before it becomes serious....I suspect a cop would only confiscate it and tell them to go on their way, at least if he was smart. Courts don't want to deal with misdemeanors. But btw, once had a sheriff's deputy say he'd much rather deal with a person who smoked pot over a drunk.....said drunks get belligerent and want to fight but the pot smokers are mellow and don't cause trouble....that is not expressing any opinion on the use of illegal substances
