This is provencial Wisconsin. Ironically, just an hour away in Milwaukee offenders with up to an ounce of pot get a $300 fine on an ordinance violation. I think the reason for the tough prosecutions is to keep the gangbangers out by fear of tough prosecution.

On its face it does not sound like that bad an idea, but as a practical matter it leads to a whole lot of local kids sitting it out. Almost all possession is charged as a felony, oftentimes plea bargained down. Small amounts, if rolled into joints, are charged as "packaged for delivery."

This is a very wealthy area, not quite suburban and there is definitely a double standard in the administration of the drug war.

The the voters should correct that double standard with the local WOD.
