Of course, if you just drove it in Canada where we haven't yet decided
to mount a WAR against a fairly benign plant, you'd be just fine.
I've never heard of anyone getting jail time for simple possesion up
here- more like a ticket, and even that's a farce. If your driving and
using it, then sure, throw the book at em. But FIVE YEARS!!!!
I don't think I'm going to be visiting Arizona (no offence)....
