OCTOBER 18--A New York City man arrested this summer for possession of methamphetamine was actually carrying Jolly Rancher candies that cops mistook for a controlled substance, according to a federal civil rights lawsuit.

When there are literally no consequences for being bad at your job it's apparently borderline impossible to be any good at it.

In their defense, this was NYC. Surely Jolly Ranchers are a controlled substance by now.

I actually thought that's what it was about judging from the title. I was sitting here thinking, surely jolly ranchers don't have THAT much sugar packed into them

my grandfather immigrated here from greece in the 50's, anyway whenever i have family come over to visit, i always ask them to bring me fresh mountain tea, oregano etc. Last year, my cousin was detained by TSA for several hours over the oregano. They didnt know what it was and acted like it was weed. you dont need a drug dog to tell the difference in oregano and weed. the officer kept asking him what he did with it, he said, you put it on your food which confused the officer even more.

I've been asked ? by TSA and cops in respect to stuff (mostly equipment) .. what is this? I just tell them "you're the detective, figure it out yourself .. charge me or leave me alone".
