probably shouldnt be asking us. doubt any of us are criminal experts. call up a lawyer and ask him. or one of thsoe hotlines that give you free legal advice. i got into a problem where an oz was found in my car (mind u i live in canada and there were 3 other guys) but the stupidest thing i did was not do anything about it

2 ounces will probably be intent to distribute.
Not fun.

btw i noticed the laws are ridiculous over there in the us. especially in texas, i mean come on

Paraphernalia possession class C misdemeanor $500 fine

so even if he was in texas and they could only find a pipe he had to cough up 500 dollars, damn

They laws are pretty tough on marijuana in America, but the police are allowed to somewhat make their own decisions. My friend got caught with a dime and a pipe on him, nothing too bad. The cop had him place his pipe in a bag and smash it on the cement and grind his weed into the dirt and let him go. For two ounces, you're definitely going downtown...

I'm just guessing it'd be about a day in prison and a $100 fine at the most for under an ounce.
