This Blog is not legal advice

I have been wanting to start a blog for a while now, to give me a place to rant and rave about new laws, bad laws, misapplied laws, and other things wrong with NC law. I want to start off by making it clear that this is just that- my rantings. Don't take anything I say in this blog as necessarily correct. It is my personal opinion. It is not legal advice, nor should anyone base any actions on the things in this blog.

Having said that, I have a number of subjects I hope to blog about in the coming days, weeks, months.  Everything from DWI laws that have trampled the Constitution, DMV rules that seem to make no sense at all, Administrative rules that tend to create financial burdens sufficient to drive a good person to a life of crime.  And unintended consequences of laws passed, but not though about first.

For example, it seems the legislature would rather have young people smoke pot than drink beer. The penalties for having beer if you are under 18 are far greater than the penalty for having marijuanna in small amounts. Surely that isn't what the legislature intended, is it? That's the current state of the law. I will explore and explain this in my next post.
