Federal Court Rules Against Federal Subversion
of State Medical Marijuana Laws
For the first time, a court has recognized that a concerted effort by the federal government to sabotage state medical marijuana laws violates the U.S. Constitution. While California's landmark 1996 medical marijuana law has mostly been upheld by the state's courts, after the U.S. Supreme Court's unfavorable ruling in 2005 it appeared the sun may have been setting on medical marijuana reform in the federal courts. full story

The citizens state initiatives rule, over city, county and individual politicops, sorry Jer, your wasting more tax bucks when the budget is cutting off jobs and services as it is. 215 is for the citizens to not be criminalized, it is the Compassionate Use Act not the Medicinal Marijuana Act. For any amount required, private matter between the citizen and their sovereignty. You can call it doctor patient confidentiality but "Health Provider" and "caregiver" are determined by the "patient" Putting healthy users, preventing illness in cages to get sick enough to be quasi-legal is border line wingnut.

No civil society should ever need a law to keep sick people from cages. It's beyond reason to cage someone finding a break from their daily torment getting through the pain and symptoms. Caging anyone for what Nixon's own Commission recommended decriminalizing while he disposed of Science and flat out lied to even include cannabis as a schedule#1 narcotic is criminal. Any "doctor" doesn't see that is not doing no harm and therefore should be removed from any kangaroo medical board.

"The biggest killer on the planet is stress and I still think the best medicine is and always has been cannabis."
-- Willie Nelson - Musician, Biodiesel Entrepreneur

215 has been opposed by physician politicians and their AMA blackmail Insurance groups, white powder pushers and everything with a badge since we gathered signatures. It has been abused by every copshop in California at one time or another. This has nothing whatsoever to do with cops. The Media is guilty of spreading hate speech and gossip, along with their talking heads. Trying to incite psychological and/or physical harm on a US citizen, terrorizing citizens with this constant barrage of attacks and defamation. One day the most frail of us have security in knowing their relief is available, the next some elected official or subordinate with a badge needs to make life easier to catch them and cage them. Illegally relieving symptoms and stress? What in tarnation has this society come too? NO ID required, no prescription, no signing your life with the state when they pass the kyndbuds and go straight for the computer records of the patients. It's a vegetable, let it go... DdC

?There's some good stuff in there for us to efficiently punish people who are abusing the law,?

This 6-inch diameter canister held 254.89 grams of federal medical marijuana for an IND patient, a typical monthly supply mailed from the federal cannabis research garden in Mississippi.

An indoor garden: More harvests, but smaller plants

Outdoors: With a typical growing season that lasts from March or April into September or October, outdoor plants have a long time to grow and usually much more space to spread out, so they tend to be larger.

Half the plants grown from cannabis seed are males that are worthless for marijuana.

100 square feet of mature female canopy from seed or clone is harvested at one time outdoors, with a total yield of ±50 ounces (3.1 pounds) of bud to last the entire year.
