I would doubt this judge would be so blatant as to benefit after she retires, if she retires because she’s a federal judge but then I guess some wouldn’t hesitate.
Many judges on the Ninth Circuit have been making these decisions for years, they’re libtards that are in bed with enviros and a lot of other activist groups.
I’m somewhat familiar with this and the pot thing, we lived in So OR for 15 years and moved there shorty before the spotted owl scam started. That was about time when the sophistictaed pot growing started in the forests also.
Baked or BBQed?
When I saw Oakland, CA in that judges address, I should have known. If I had thought about it, I would already have had the answer - idiot lib on the bench.
