        Thank you for linking this. I’ll be honest, I read most of it pretty skeptically thinking it was a silly law, but as a harm reduction for people OD’ing on a substances they have been misled about and doctors being able to accurately treat patients, this actually makes a lot of sense. Ty for the context. ♥

      No, this is definitely illegal in the US. You will likely get multiple charges for fraud, intent to sell narcotics, and if anyone gets harmed attempted manslaughter (some people are allergic to oregano, a lot of stuff that looks like cocaine is deadlier than cocaine). If your customers aren’t dumb kids the retaliation could be worse than the cops too.

    Weird thing to lie about.

    No one, including members of uncontacted tribes in the Amazon rainforest, would think that of oregano was weed.

    Anon is an unconvincing lying liar.

      one day when i was 15~16 I legit had a bit of oregano on my backpack cause with some friends we wre going to meet up to make pizza, and for some reason i started to grind chalk and put it in a tiny glass vial some time later classmate(one known for partying too hard) comes to ask something and sees the white powder and asks if it is coke, with a deadpan face I say yes, asks if I have anything else I say yes i have marijuana, offers me about 5 bucks, I accept

      when clases are over i go to the super to buy even more oregano and a few drinks, we made our pizza

      next day he comes and asks if I have more weed, his mom caught him, and also thought it was weed, and threw it down the toilet

      no one suspected anything because i was part of the weird kids and also if they wanted pirated movies, anime, games, porn i was the one to ask, one time I sold a couple of bullet casings that were all beat up with trafic, I used to sell kites and sometimes abrasive string for kite fighting, that kind of string is illegal in my country because its too dangerous, so it to my classmates it wasn’t that weird that I could have a bag of weed for some reason

    they can’t do anything

    I know all greentexts are fake but this gave it away for me. Schools will 100% suspend you for what anon did, even if it’s not actual drugs it’s still drug paraphernalia (if this doesn’t stick it can be filed under the “causing a distraction” clause).
