i dont totallly disagree but in my mind its a little like arresting someone for dui (a crime, but one that most of the population has done) and then in exchange for dropping the charges having the person serve as a ci to bust a huge alcohol importing crime group. these kids who are arrested for small amounts of week (which like 90% of my friends could have been at some point in time) and getting them involved with the really bad higher level drug dealers just seems wrong. talk harder drugs, and its not as clearly wrong, but at the weed level it just seems like the cops should focus their time on bigger issues and dont endanger kids. MOO opinion as well, and i suspect people will disagree.
LE doesn't force them to do anything. Cops aren't focusing their time on this and endanger kids. First they are NOT kids. They are adults. They are adults who are making bad choices and getting arrested. They are then given the choice to have the charge dropped and be a CI. If they don't like the choice. Say no and suffer the consequence of breaking the law! It is simple. They broke the law. Having any amount of weed if illegal, is illegal. I don't feel bad for people who break the law and get arrested.
LE isn't having these people do anything they don't want to do. They are doing it to get out of trouble because they broke the law. Placing blame on LE is mind blowing to me. If the person had not broke the law to begin with then they wouldn't be in the situation. People need to take responsible for their own actions.
