Yes, you get a ticket instead of going to jail now. But a lot of cops don't bother writing the ticket. Unlike in the 90s when you could get yourself a $900 ticket for having a couple grams of cannabis on your person, and people frequently did get those tickets.

They don’t bother because nothing happens if you ignore it. This is unlike Portugal where there are social consequences to ignoring treatment, although they are also starting to have a growing drug problem and funding issues.

And as their tax paying employer, those employees should hit the unemployment line.

Thanks to the union, trying that will cost you more than paying their salary (not that the tiny proportion coming from your specific taxes gives you any say).

Yes, I would love to see PPA dissolved in my lifetime. Get rid of PPB and give the finding to MCSO until a better police force can be figured out. With no union for employees.
