57. You need to include the remainder of my

sentence in order to understand what it is I'm saying.

Anyone who is currently smoking weed is doing so because 1) they like it, and 2) they are not anticipating being arrested and jailed for it. If a police officer was standing right by them and weed is illegal where they live, a sane person is most likely not going to light up knowing they would be arrested soon after.

There are perfectly sane people who choose jail in order to protest injustice because the whole aim of their protest is to 1) raise awareness of a particular issue and 2) demonstrate their moral fortitude by showing a willingness to be jailed for their beliefs.

These situations are both completely different from say, a bank robber, who purposely breaks the law in anticipation of getting away with it. If Mr/Ms Bank Robber had a crystal ball and foresaw their own arrest beforehand, they will probably be sane enough not to carry out their plan.

Perhaps you mistakenly believe I'm endorsing incarceration (which I'm not)? Simply stating that a sane person is not going to break the law if they know with 100% certainty they will be locked up for it.
