Life in prison for someone with a green thumb, prevented by federal law from citing a state law that authorized his activities.

[Kevin Curry]

There are so many worthwhile endeavors and callings in life this nitwit could have chosen. Stupidly, he chose to be high priest to a miserable weed.

What a waste.

What's the old saying? "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

Without entering the endless WOD flamewar, I will merely note that Rosenthal was growing large quantities of marijuana, publicly. He was daring the Feds to bust him.

This is very much like holding out your hand to an attack-trained doberman and saying "get it!"

[Mr. Mojo]

Rosenthal is one the greatest horticulturists of our time, and a good guy to boot. All he wanted was to be left alone to write his books and tend his garden.

Life in prison for someone with a green thumb, prevented by federal law from citing a state law that authorized his activities.

Worse.
Jailed for growing a plant that GOD created.

These WODers are anti-God. They DARE substitute THEIR Creation for His.

Evil lives.
