Xwing Posted March 14, 2018 at 03:08 PM Share Posted March 14, 2018 at 03:08 PM Affirmative Defense is a tricky way to still make it illegal but appear to be "compromising" without actually doing so. It still means that the teen is charged with a felony, gets arrested, and has to pay for a lawyer and go to trial. That is a far cry from a real exemption.
