Ballot Question 2 reads, in part:
The proposed law would define possession of one ounce or less of marijuana as including possession of one ounce or less of tetrahydrocannibinol (“THC”), or having metabolized products of marijuana or THC in one’s body.
That seems like a rather strange definition to me. It sounds like you could be considered in possession just by having inhaled secondhand marijuana smoke. As a corollary, it also sounds as though police could stop and “search” you (by administering a breathalizer?) merely because you’ve been at a party where marijuana may have been smoked. Obviously, that could open the door for a lot of abuse and police misconduct.
Does anyone know what the skinny is on this provision of the question? It seems like a very weird addition to an otherwise straightforward question.
