Let’s see, avoiding taxes for more than a decade, paid a porn star to keep her quiet during an election to win the presidency, tried to off Mike, Organized an insurrection…hmmm time served sir. Good thing they only found classified documents all over his public house and not a bong… because a bong, that’s 30 to life! Specially if it was full of water that may or may not have contained meth.
Even though it’s meth, 30 years is fucking STEEP. You’d never see somebody getting that much for alcohol in their system unless they killed someone.
IIRC it’s because they classified the bong water as the controlled substance. As such it’s treated as if she were smuggling a half pound or so of meth rather then bong water that tested positive for methamphetamine.
After reading the article it seems like she isn’t actually facing 30 years. She is being charged with posession and that can be punished with up to 30 years. I’m sure no judge would actually give her maximum sentence over a tiny amount dissolved in bong water. Still fucked up that she’s being charged at all though.
What’s the lesson here? Clean your bongs?
Imagine facing 30 years for not emptying out an old coffee cup.
- dump your bong water before driving. Legally relevant in Minnesota, but avoids gross spills everywhere.
- lower maximum penalties for non-violent crimes. Even if she just “had meth” and you thought prison was appropriate for that, 30 years is a perversion. The maximum isn’t typical, but it shouldn’t even be on the table.
- when repealing a law, make sure you find all the random bullshit related to it, because cops and DAs are bastards.
- don’t be a cop or a DA, else people will think you’re a bastard, no insult to bastards intended.
Also, TIL you can smoke meth in a bong? That seems particularly weird to me. Takes a village I suppose.
It takes a special bowl, but you can get a bell ringer with one
Lot of people put it on top of tobacco or weed too but often it’s a similar setup to smoking cannabis concentrates
Yeah I’ve definitely seen multiple people smoking meth out of bongs in my lifetime. Safer than injecting.
I’m sorry but if you’re driving around with methy bong water you get what you deserve.
yeah but in that state all thst paraphernalia(even with drug residue) is legal.
…Just not the bong water specifically for some reason.
stupid person, sure, because it’s like, get your shit together lady, but, also stupid law.
I used to live in that region. She’ll do some jail, maybe even prison, depending on priors and exactly what went down, but not 30yrs. Just asshole cops making the most out of what they got. No judge will let that shit fly. Maybe in Alabama but not MN.
It sounds like her life is a meth.

Why? Because you have comtempt for drug users? What drugs she does is her business. She was carrying paraphernalia which is legal under her state’s law. Are you really that closed minded that you feel she deserves 30 years in prison?
Counterpoint: Methy bong water.
Methy water can’t even burn. Let’s keep that in mind. If we were all dedicated pyros, wouldn’t it be illegal to drive around in a vehicle that also carries all sorts of octane laden fuels?
Will someone think of the carbon chains! We need carbon safety laws to protect us at least from hexane! 30 years for hexane in the gas tank!
What does it matter if it can burn?
Meth is very hydrophilic and you just pour the water onto a Pyrex and microwave it a little at a time, then scrape the residue left
Fantastic comment for the diy-er in us.

Hey as a recreational methamphetamine user myself I’m ashamed for this lady.
Maybe she can do 30 years recreationally 30 minutes a day?
I do mine five or six times a day for the last eighteen years.
She should be able to handle the same.
30 years is extreme and she may not have even been using while driving.
Methy Bongwater is my cousin!
says our next president, who apparently NEVER makes mistakes and has ALL his shit together. fuck you.
You’ll have to buy me a drink first, honey.
