Hey everybody, I live in U.S. South Dakota, originally from Iowa. I was just checking the Bud laws in S.D. out of curiosity and discovered if you are holding 2oz of grass or less it is a Class 1 misdemeanor worth one year imprisonment in a county jail or two thousand dollars fine, or both. Now I found that to be rather excessive. Then I remembered a tragic shooting that occurred in my town a few weeks ago. A 21 year old college kid 4.0 gpa had been killed because he accidentally tried to get into his neighbors house and the 28 year old (McDonald's manager) shot him through the screen door twice after talking to the drunk kid.
Now this is a terrible thing and yet the guy had all charges dropped and he was let go hours later.
You can kill someone on your property and get off free in South Dakota, but have a few Grams of weed and your ass goes to jail for a Year.
The Moral Compass of Conservative America is so Fucked up I don't think they could find their way out of a room full of doors.
