Sigh. While I have little sympathy for this group (they did campaign for the laws put in place) I also have little patience for this sort of waste of resources, especially just to spend more resources in housing them in Jail. The legislature should enact further legislation (if they haven't already) that allows for heavy fines/citations for unlicensed sales instead. Then the prosecutor should be encouraged to move to decriminalize these charges down to fines.
