I wouldn't be so smug; I think this does mean more problems for peace loving people who just want to get stoned and be left alone. The anti-marijuana side will have one more, really big example to point at in their campaign to defame pot smokers. This was a setback for anyone who wants to see more tolerance toward people like us, make no mistake.

The guy who shot the four mounties, if that's really what happened, obviously had a screw loose. Even professional criminals know better than to attack LEOs, it just brings the full weight of the law down on them, and no one with any brains would want that. No matter what the real reasons are for this morons actions; psychosis, brain tumor, illusion of self defense, the response is sure to be "See? Pot smokers are violent and they go around killing people".

Where did this jerk get the idea that shooting somebody was going to him any good? He was no freedom fighter, he was a dumb asshole, or at best someone in need psychiatric care.
