Reply to comment by ksquad80 in Is smoking weed illegal, I know possession of weed is illegal but is it illegal to smoke it in your home by Ronnie-Nesbitt
If you are stopped by the police after smoking, you have probably done something really stupid. Once charged, they can test you for narcotics. If the test comes back for substance use, you could be charged. Federal law lists marijuana as a narcotic. As I stated for now.
It is possible. However, it is most likely not probable that anything would happen to you if you smoke in your own home. My question had to do with how you can smoke it and not possess it. It was an existential esoteric statement.

It doesn't matter what you test positive for.
You still aren't charged for possession of illegal substances unless you physically possess them...and that doesn't mean in your fucking bloodstream.
You can be charged with DUI or something similar if you are operating a car or machinery or whatever. There are probably a slew of other charges for being drugged up and in certain situations....but you don't get a possession charge without having drugs on you.

If you grab a bag of weed and then put it all into your bloodstream (smoking, eating, etc) and then somehow the cops come to your house, they can't charge you with possession since you dont actually have the physical item that the law forbids possessing.
Being under the influence of Marijuana on your own property doesn't seem to violate any law/statute that I'm aware of as long as you aren't operating any type of vehicle (car, lawn mower, scooter, skateboard, etc).
The closest thing that I can fathom you possibly being charged with is Public Intoxication or Disturbing the Peace, but even then, it would require an extraordinary type of circumstance. Pretty sure you will have no issues being high in a recliner inside your house. Dlbeing drunk in your house isnt illegal right?
