[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We can argue about this until we are blue in the face and still not agree.  Personally, intent does not matter to me.  You consumed that product before you purchased it.  Thus at the time of consumption, the item did not belong to you.  Folks can spin it however they like.  That’s the factual bottom line.  Intent is a nuance. [/quote]

No it's not. The factual bottom line is all about intent if we're talking about the law here. It's not about spinning, it's about reading a statute. End of story. If we're talking about what is right or wrong in a larger sense, than we have something to argue about. Just because intent does not matter to YOU doesn't mean you get to make up the law. It is what it is. [/quote]

YOU cannot make up the law either!  My point about intent being a nuance is that at the time you consumed the item, you are the ONLY person that knows your intent.  The person who enforces the rule does not know.  As I pointed out in a ealier post, your statement of intent may not matter much to an officer who is detaining you.  It will matter to the person prosecuting you.  [/quote]
