    As a nurse working in Washington State and smoking a joint. Cops asked me if they could search me and found half a xanax in my pill box. Then since it wasn’t in an orange bottle with my name on it is considered illegal apparently. They booked me and the whole nine yards spent two nights in jail. My mom called the local bail bondsman and got me bailed out. I paid her back but it was a fucked up situation. Maybe its because I am black…no playing the race card but 2 days for alprolazem a half pill is kind of fucked up.

      It’s definitely fucked up, and considering the history the “justice” system has with anyone not lily white, I kinda suspect that was in play.
