Oh, it was allowed to consume it, but not carry it? That's a bit odd.
No, it makes sense with the philosophy of german law. It's not illegal to harm yourself. It is not illegal to flee from the police or from prison. But of course there are various crimes surrounding the allowed behaviour.
Hmm, what are the crimes surrounding fleeing, or escaping? Property damage?
Thanks!
Isnt it reasonable to penalize drug trafficking over consumption, which just targets end users
It is, it's just a bit odd that I can be prosecuted while smoking a blunt, not because I'm smoking it but because I have it.
