Pot crusader Marc Emery says his appearance on the news program 60 Minutes on Sunday will be an opportunity for Americans to see him as just an ordinary guy who regards himself as the Luke Skywalker against their government's Darth Vader tactics.

Great post Lady Jag. Thanks for the rational thoughts.
In California we just ignore laws we don't like. I can understand how that would really chaff a brownshirt's buns. No respect for crap laws breeds no respect for the law.
I thought Howard Marks was the Marco Polo of pot.
You and Jackie Goldberg?
You and Adolf Hitler?
Godwin's Law
Negated by a truism ...
Jackie Goldberg.
She on the brownshirt's side. She makes crap laws and thinks she's above them.
You and her against the world.
The patriots will beat you and Jackie.
She, like you, supports legalized pot. Her girlfriend, Marlene Rasnick, even has one of thoses bogus "medical marijuana" recommendations.
I support legalized tomatoes, too.
Hope you and Jackie enjoy your bacon, lettuce and marijuana sandwich.
Hope you continue to enjoy your life as a frustated brownshirt.
Kiss Jackie goodnight.
Give my best to Eva ...
Note that one of the symptoms of caffeine abuse is death. The last one. Yes, coffee.
Symptoms of Caffeine Overdose and Caffeine Withdrawal
Effects of Too Much or Too Little
Caffeine is a substance which occurs naturally in several plants or can be chemically synthesized. It is found in relatively high doses in coffee, some soft drinks (e.g., cola), and a variety of medications. It is also found in lesser amounts in tea and chocolate. Three cups of coffee is considered a moderate dose of caffeine for an adult. However, you can best gauge whether or not you are getting too much caffeine by being on the lookout for symptoms of caffeine overdose. If you are trying to cut back on caffeine, you may start experiencing withdrawal symptoms within 12 hours after stopping your intake. Withdrawal symptoms are at their worst 24-48 hours after the last cup of coffee (or other caffeine-containing substance), but can last for a week. For this reason, it's usually better to cut back on caffeine slowly over the space of several days.
Symptoms of Caffeine Overdose
