CH> Hate to break this to you, Rich; but if you were in a non-ZT
CH> area and they found your unlabeled drugs you would be in the

CH> officers that you had a bonafide prescription for those
CH> meds, I am sure that they would call your doctor before
CH> filing a criminal complaint against you.
Under a ZT rule system the cop wouldn't have any
choice.  He would have to arrest me and take me to jail
no matter what I told him or what he thought.  ZT means
that any violation of the law is treated the same as
any other and because I was carrying a strange drug I
would have to be arrested just the same as someone with
1000 quaaludes.
