In Michigan, What Is A "Park?"

[Rrog]

So here in MI we're in double trouble if arrested in a "park" with the Canna.

What exactly is a "park?" School playground? State campground? Bike trail? All of these are "parks of some sort.

The MMM Act is quite clear in this aspect. You are not protected for the BURNING OF CANNABIS in a Park.
A park is a general recreational place officially recognized in any given County or City. I have never looked at the actual laws around this, but all "Parks" would be City Owned, thus community properties. Same thing would essentially apply to any government owned area with no official duty other than that of a recreational nature. like a Fairgrounds or swimming area (usually in a Park) unless privately owned.

Kind of ironic, Recreational Pot will not be useable in a place deemed as official government recreational properties. lol


I ll have to re read that section, but my interpretation of the No Park, Buss piece deals with the ingestion of Medical Cannabis as otherwise allowed under USE.

I'm thinking an official paved bike trail could be construed as a park.

Interesting the burning vs possessing. So I wouldn't be in such deep shit in a park if I possessed, but didn't burn, I gather.

That is it ! No smoking in the park just the same as no drinking even though this is often overlooked unless someone is drunk and being rude.. You on the other had can be the coolest cat in the park and not harming anyone but that herb lit up just may get you hit with a nightstick if your not careful.. Damn heathens and weed in the park anyway lmao

I wouldn't say "overlooked". A lot of people are arrested or fined for Public Intox to the tunes of 100s of thousands in costs for the victimless crime, and nearly that in State Revenue.

Any public "Ingestion" is against the act.

Certain areas, such as 12 grade an under schooIs , even possessen is iIIageI, even in your car trunk--get fIat tire, do not puII in to a schooI parking Iot to change it.

Any public "Ingestion" is against the act.
