And many jourisdictions don't even have the probation part if the posession is a misdemeaner. Getting caught with a half-smoked quarter bag in your pocket is quite different than having anything that can be construed as "with intent to distribute". If you bought an ounce but the guy gave it to you in 4 quarters you best dump it all in one bag and get rid of the rest before running around with it...
