If she's prosecuted before a long queue of others, we'd be entitled to suggest the law is not being applied equally. Start a little higher up the food chain with the politicians.

The politicians aren't announcing they use cocaine in public, are they? Even if some of them do sniff a lot on camera.

They’ve literally found cocaine at the White House and refused to persecute anyone for it. Rules for thee but not for me.

That's not enough evidence to tie it to a person. I remember that one and it seemed like it was dropped by someone on a tour.

In a lot of places drug enforcement is being deprioritized, for good reason. Of course then you run into all the problems with only enforcing against people someone doesn't like.

I have a very similar rule, which is why I can no longer visit my family and friends in the US...

Bali and Singapore will execute tourists for having drugs, so you can go there I guess.

Asia? A lecture? For marijuana?

You're getting banned for life.

Well, depending on your ethnicity of course. In Singapore I was just told off for a small bag with maybe a gram of weed left in my pocket after flying in from Amsterdam, they did not seem particularly interested in the situation but stressed that it should never happen again.

I’d be shocked if the airport experience at Bali was really different, although they would probably want a bribe from you.

What's the point of prosecuting users?

That's how you get a cooperating witness against their dealers.

Also, it's illegal.

I wonder if I'm missing some sarcasm, but I feel I need to clarify that "I like cocaine and partying" is her _persona_, it isn't necessarily true. It's largely marketing. I feel this was the main point of the article, lol.

Well, the first major point she makes is that she really loves partying.
