Yep, every time one lands in Federal court, the first thing they do is remove any medical defense.
That leaves you with no defense. And additional contempt charges if you mention it.
Welcome to America. That's how we roll.:mad:
Even with out the clones this guy was over the 99 plant limit. The govt was slapped in the face when this idiot went on Local News and bragged about what he was doing and how money he was making. He probably wasnt paying taxes on all of it either and im sure they are looking into that too. You DONT Taunt the DEA like that. I feel bad for him and what happened but he should have not went on TV. This is what bragging gets you and even worse in some cases.
he most certainly is a dumbass and he did ask for it by going on the tv and bragging like he was, stoned off his ass.
thing is, he didn't hurt anyone.
Child molesters get less time than this guy will.
Yes Peeps that are growing need to learn to keep their mouths sealed shut. Talking to the media is just an open invitation for a raid. The fewer peeps that know about your grow the better.Quote:

the first rule about "grow club" is you don't talk about "grow club"
everyone should support HR-3939 because there are so many people in prison as we speak that have not been able to use the medical defense which I feel is unjust. When you are taken to court you should be able to present every defense at your disposal. And we should not throw Chris under the bus because of an error in judgment, the constitution protects everyone even those who make bad decisions.:stoned:
Plenty of people have talked to the media and haven't been raided.
The core issue, from what I understand, is he was running about 18 plants per patient. His defense was that a caregiver can have as many plants as they want because A20 only limited the number of plants a patient can possess.
He has a right to that interpretation, but that all goes out the window once it's a federal case. I wouldn't consider it a case of clear and unambiguous compliance, but it's a moot point.
the "99 plant limit" is when you can get seriously fucked. over that and they mean business.Quote:
