So let's say you are at a friend's place, you're drinking a beer. Your friend lights up a joint. You don't leave, you just stay there and keep watching the football game. You never touch the joint, you decline politely when your friend offers it to you.<br><br>Now somehow the police show up. They charge your friend with possession of weed, and they charge you with frequenting.<br><br>You support that? Seriously?
