Accountability is something we need to reintroduce to not just the police, when you make a choice you accept the consequences of that choice, and Florida is hands down one of the, if not the WORST states to deal Marijuana in. Their recreational laws for Marijuana are unreasonable AF even in 2020 when many states have decriminalized and even legally sell it for recreational use.
Hell... with a clean criminal record even that much Marijuana probably wouldn't have fucked him over very much. He'd of been arrested on the spot but with a good or even mediocre lawyer he'd of probably served little to no time, he didn't seem like a bad kid, just nervous and he knew he was doing something illegal at the time.
I feel the need to point back to my original post here and this is specifically in context of his choices would have landed him in jail eventually... not the death. Absolutely not the death.
Edit: You guys do understand I don't think the kid is a bad person or implying he's some kind of "thug" or "bad guy" right? Thats not what I'm arguing here, I understand sometimes good people can make bad choices for whatever reason, I don't know his life story.
