I think this is what you call "taxation without representation" Note also, that the judge in the case was the brother of the supreme court judge who bush appointed who's totally opposed to these sates right cases. Great how bush's daughter, the cocaine addict, isn't in jail, but this man, who was deputized by the city of oakland to grow this marijuana, is going to be in jail for 20 years. Bush himself was arrested for DUI, I wish he was rotting in jail instead of ed. disgusting. On Fri, Jan 31, 2003 at 04:50:00PM -0800, Eric Cordian wrote:

The Feebs are crowing over their latest victory, having just obtained a conviction against a medical marijuana grower for the city of Oakland.
The individual was of course prohibited from any mention at his trial of medical marijuana, that he was growing the stuff legally under a 1996 state law, or any other mitigating factors.
"There is no such thing as medical marijuana," said Richard Meyer, a DEA spokesman. "We're Americans first, Californians second."
Actually, I think that should be "Assholes First."
