In the states 1kg is a 10 year MMS. The UK seems really lame about marijuana and their whole "skunk" scandal but they imprisoning people much more fairly than the states.

under a state I've lived in, its 6-12 months, with no mandatory prison time. You could be sentenced to around $100 and a driver's license suspension and be done with it.
it appears that simple possesion of a kilogram is likewise a 1 year max under federal law
edit: thought this was refering to pot, disregard

chemy, I mistakenly thought the ten year comment was regardingn pot
In several jurisdictions (I believe fed. too) there isn't a set amount that makes you automatically a trafficer, however; the prosecution can show that there's no way you'd be useing that for yourself, hence they can get a conspiracy or attempt charge to stick
So while you're not ipso facto guilty of traficking in this case, as a practical matter you're not likely to get off.
But florida is fucking stupid with this shit. I recall the case of a guy w/ allegedly false prescription for pain pills for legitimate condition (he's in wheelchair).
They prosecuted him from the weight of the pills, not the active ingredient. So instead of say 10mg of oxy a pill, he was tried on say 1 gram a pill (100 times the actual amount) and qualified for a mandatory min. of like 20 years.
The kicker? He gets the same shit he tried to get from the pharmacy while in priosn...
And the fucking governor won't pardon or commute him.
florida is insane

that's so stupid.
28 grams isn't neccesarily traficking, though likely.
I know plenty of people that buy in bulk for all sorts of things, its just bullshit perception that w/ drugs anyone who has lots is selling, while you can go to wharehouse stores and but 3 pound bottle of ketcup, and no one thinks yoru selling.
And the multiple baggies things is similarly stupid. Dealers sell shit in incremental bags. So when someone wants, say, 2 grams of heroin, they buy 20 bags or so.
So how does this mean they're selling? I never got this notion.... I buy werther's candy in individually wrapped pieces in a larger bag. I'd prefer not to, but that's all they sell them as, even though one container would be more convieniant. Likewise w/ drugs... maybe we should start filing charges against people w/ individually wrapped candy in their house for operating a buisness in a residentially zoned area.
