(45,319 posts)would treat this particular set of events in reality. Of the two students involved one is under age for possession under the new law. That means she broke the new law by having any marijuana at all. In addition her partner in crime committed the big crime, providing a controlled substance to a person under age, in addition to the 'it's always been a felony' act of feeding people spiked foods.
So under the new law, prosecution of this particular event would be provided with extra legal sauce, not less.
So ginning this up as if it had to do with the new law (you keep insisting that it was a celebration of it, but that is not in the article, you are ginning that up) is just daft. The marijuana used was not purchased legally, nor used legally. Not under the old laws, not under the new. Pretending that your assumptions are facts, or the repeated 'shootings in my area' claim without link or fact all counts as hyping or ginnng up the story beyond what it actually is.
You keep sayinig 8 went to hospital, you keep saying this was a celebration of the new law, you keep suggesting the new law makes this sort of thing more legal, when in fact it makes this more illegal, more specifically prosecutable.
