Ok, real talk: is that actually legal? It's definitely fraud, but can you fraudulently sell illegal substances?
No, this is definitely illegal in the US. You will likely get multiple charges for fraud, intent to sell narcotics, and if anyone gets harmed attempted manslaughter (some people are allergic to oregano, a lot of stuff that looks like cocaine is deadlier than cocaine). If your customers aren’t dumb kids the retaliation could be worse than the cops too.
You're also definitely not supposed to sell stuff out of your backpack at a school, like if a teacher catches you selling anything, that could get you in trouble in school at the least
In many jurisdictions in the US it is illegal to sell imitation controlled substances.
Thank you for linking this. I'll be honest, I read most of it pretty skeptically thinking it was a silly law, but as a harm reduction for people OD'ing on a substances they have been misled about and doctors being able to accurately treat patients, this actually makes a lot of sense. Ty for the context. ♥
I think it's probably illegal to sell anything, especially food, without being registered with the required services like the IRS or the FDA.
This could fall under the same regulation as a lemonade stand or fundraising cake sales.
Definitely if you're selling [not-food] a and claiming it's [food]. But I don't necessarily think there's anything that prevents you from selling something that you say is not safe to eat, despite it actually being safe to eat. Companies do that all the time where they'll say their product is not safe for x even though it is, jsut to avoid liability.
I doubt that laws on false advertising have any exception for things that are already illegal, so yes it's likely illegal to advertise oregano as weed.
they can't do anything
I know all greentexts are fake but this gave it away for me. Schools will 100% suspend you for what anon did, even if it's not actual drugs it's still drug paraphernalia (if this doesn't stick it can be filed under the "causing a distraction" clause).
I imagined it as them just having heard rumors of what anon did and possession of actual drugs would have been their only evidence...
Well the cops can't do anything, who cares if you get suspended in HS that's just a vacation. This is obviously fake but that isn't what gave it away lol

Here's at least one state where misrepresenting something as a controlled substance then selling it is punishable even what was actually sold is unregulated
This is just an episode from the Office
And orange is the new black.
Caprese?
Weird thing to lie about.
No one, including members of uncontacted tribes in the Amazon rainforest, would think that of oregano was weed.
Anon is an unconvincing lying liar.
When I was 16 I was a little shit. Went to a school where there were loads of posh, upper-middle class kids who desperately wanted to try weed but had absolutely no way to get it. My friend and I sold them so much random shit that wasn't weed. Once we scraped this outer layer of soft, brown matter off a wooden park bench that had been in the rain, rolled it into a ball and said it was hash. We got expelled, but not because of that - just because we were idiots.
Mix it with tobacco and plenty of idiots will take it and smoke it

Yeah I had a kid do this growing up and no one bought it AND he got kicked out of the school for trying to deal drugs even though they were fake.
Had a kid almost kicked out of my middle school for faking something similar.
During lunch one day, he crushed some sugar packets on an Oreo before giving it to another kid. Then jokingly told the kid he gave him a crushed up Ritalin covered Oreo. They all knew it was a joke since he crushed the sugar packet in front of him, but the kid hated the other guy so he told a teacher.
I think criminal charges were charged against him. The kid had to go get his stomach pumped in the chance it was actually Ritalin.
The other kid had gone to a disciplinary school for a full year before being allowed back for his 8th grade year.
one day when i was 15~16 I legit had a bit of oregano on my backpack cause with some friends we wre going to meet up to make pizza, and for some reason i started to grind chalk and put it in a tiny glass vial some time later classmate(one known for partying too hard) comes to ask something and sees the white powder and asks if it is coke, with a deadpan face I say yes, asks if I have anything else I say yes i have marijuana, offers me about 5 bucks, I accept
when clases are over i go to the super to buy even more oregano and a few drinks, we made our pizza
next day he comes and asks if I have more weed, his mom caught him, and also thought it was weed, and threw it down the toilet
no one suspected anything because i was part of the weird kids and also if they wanted pirated movies, anime, games, porn i was the one to ask, one time I sold a couple of bullet casings that were all beat up with trafic, I used to sell kites and sometimes abrasive string for kite fighting, that kind of string is illegal in my country because its too dangerous, so it to my classmates it wasn't that weird that I could have a bag of weed for some reason
It's really not weird that a 15/16 year old has weed.
Can we please stop posting these losers?

You're right. I never noticed these were a set community. I assumed they were random cause I hadn't looked closely. Blocked. Thanks.
