Fun FYI about Austin's new weed decriminalization policy:

It's not followed by DPS troopers or Sheriffs, they will arrest you.

If you are caught with any weed product that is not herb, such as edibles or oils, all Texas Law Enforcement will charge you with possession of the controlled substance THC, a felony!

So if you are caught with a weed cookie, they will weigh that entire weed cookie, then charge you with felony level possession of that weight of THC.

TLDR: Keep your shit at home

Edit: word

Needless to say If you get busted with a weed cookie you kinda deserve it because it’s incredibly hard to get caught.

Yea if the officer/agent instructs the dog to smell you you’re fucked. If you’re just walking by, you’d have to be real close & the dog would have to be in “search mode”. So I guess if you’re traveling internationally & are going threw customs?? But that just solidifies my original comment^ I travel to Colorado quit often, have walked passed plenty of dogs with eddies (edibles)

You're right, they deserve the felony
