That is every bit as dumb as someone saying "no, I wasn't buying drugs! I only traded money for a hug, then got an eight ball for free!"

This is how you buy weed in DC...

Edit: No seriously, look it up. You can't legally sell weed in DC the but you can possess. So the shops sell you $70 socks and then gift you devil's lettuce.
