Son of a cop here: I don’t think moral, normal people police officers care a ton about the small possession charges unless it involves DUI or domestic violence of some sort. Catching truckloads of the stuff driving through the small town was a big deal sometimes. I hope/think that hasn’t changed much despite laws going back and forth. Now, to dickhead power hungry hometown heroes that join the force because they got chubby and became skill-less after highschool football, they probably have never changed their stance and will still find ways to tack on charges of public impairment
Yeah, it’s awful. I love THC and criminalization is historically racist suppression. I am not in support of the bad people, just trying to help answer the question! Also important to note that police do not carry out sentences, that’s the court and judges.

I mean, we put people away for years for amounts that are now legal in many states.
