Pardon the slight derail but 40 miles north of me in Newark, NJ (A real ghetto craphole for all those who do not know,used to be the car theft capital of the world, now it is gang ridden) , pot is a ticket/fine.
The town I live in on the Jersey Shore, you get a mugshot taken, and a booking, fingerprints taken, everything. Middle class neighborhood, etc...
It is municipality based.
That is where my hellfire missile comment came from, sir.
The Federal Gov dictates laws as it sees fit, just see how they persecute legal pot states dispensiaries. Trudging on states rights, I almost see why they attacked Fort Sumpter.
