Еженедельный (Re) хэш: 10.24.07

24-ое октября 2007 мимо Алекс

Yankees не могло сделать им к серии мира этот год, но cheer вверх по новому Yorkers, вы будете #1 на люди арестовывать черные/hispanic для куря марихуаны. См.? Не будет всеми frowns.

Было то немного холодными? Я огорченн. Никак я не.

Оно поистине уныло увидеть, что Джо Torre go out как это, и даже если Дон Mattingly могло закончиться вверх по получать работу и быть большой каретой, no one заменат Джо в глазах игроков. Оно было бы как Phil Джексон оставляя Lakers (опять) или Билл Belichik выходя патриоты. Справедливо отсутствие хорош для каждого вообще.

Закон-тяжелая и litigious культура америки определенно уникально в этом мире. Тим Wu шифера, профессор юридического высшего учебного заведения Columbia, писало весьма мысл-провоцируя рассмотрение последовательно сломленных законов.

Эта серия исследует черные пятна в американском законе: зоны в наши законы по заведенному порядку и регулярно нарушены и где реакция обеспечения соблюдения законов? ничего. Эти будут OBLASTи где, для одной причины или других, мы решали допустить lawbreaking и препятствовали закону? должно enacted и все еще на книгах? перелог положения или близкие умершие.

Темы колебаются от злоупотребления снадобья рецепта к делам авторского права и не для светлого читателя.

Очевидный контраст между новым законом (помещенным на книгах in response to специфически причина) и распадаясь highlights медленно позволенного закона (увядайте прочь без любого fanfare) как наши основывая отцы не думали все piece together наше форма правления.

Я знаю мы будет последними, но 7th однолетними времененами Каменистые пожалования была последняя неделя.

Здесь talk about Tera Патрик был вручителем.

Здесь lowdown на всех Каменисто winners и список attendee.

Пока я нахожусь на теме известных stoners, Марк & наждак Jodie как раз debuted их репортажноое-документальн на CBC Newsworld в Канаде. Принц бака неподвижн принимать на америку и, как всегда, make sure процесс наилучшим образом документирует.

Я желаю они остановило документировать Ами Winehouse и ее небольшой бежать-ins бака. Я вижу статью новостей на этой девушке дважды неделя теперь, там должен быть что-то более интересным к отчет о. Право?

Прежде чем вы знаете его она двинет к Manila и начать получить таксомотор едет от эта ванта.

###

Не чувствуйте как перемещая тип Winehouse? No matter where вы идете, всегда будет некоторое всемирные данные по марихуаны ждать.

Хотите ли вы курить внутри Kazakhstan или Bernardsville, Нью-Джерси больше информации лучшее.

The major US cities have information on legality, smoking tolerance level, law enforcement, where to buy your pot and local area prices. Everything one would need to know when traveling into unfamiliar territory.

###

Fun Fact: North Americans are most likely to search the internet for pot.

I could have told them that.

Let’s hope that the author of the following blog isn’t being affected by the deadly San Diego fires.

In the meantime, he has written an honest, first-person experience of the San Diego medical marijuana system.

As I came to find out, San Diego county had previously shut down every medical marijuana dispensary in San Diego county saying they were influencing youth to take up dangerous drugs. In my area we have no readily available source for medical marijuana other than grow it ourselves (which is what I do) or go to a “dealer”. This needs to be brought to the publics attention as it is leaving many legitimately sick people such as me without the access to the medicine they need.

This illustrates the challenge that legitimate patients are having to get their medicine, and how even in big cities people are forced to go to the streets to get marijuana if they aren’t in a position to grow some. How this makes any of us safer is beyond me.

Luckily for all of us, the prohibition movement is nothing but a downhill battle. Mass incarceration just isn’t a sustainable solution.

In Canada, they are already turning the corner. A judge has just recently declared that “marijuana prohibition has no valid force or effect.” Read on to see the entire legal memorandums and why they might be important for a simple possession case to have an impact on a constitutional level.

October is heading into full swing and everyone knows what that means. Lots of delicious beer marijuana arrests.

Everyone from college students to hardcore, drug trafficking gangsters are getting tagged.

I’m just happy that our tax dollars are getting spent responsibly. As long as my salary goes towards important stuff like minor pot arrests, and not wasteful things like outfitting our troops with IED resistant armored vehicles, I can sleep easy at night.

###

Might as well lighten the mood with a cross-dressing, English comedian talking about the stoned olympics. Wait, what?

The human brain sure is a mystery. Some people find new Eddie Murphy movies funny and others don’t like Dave Chappelle. Go figure.

(Interesting Side Note: Dave was offered the roll of Bubba, Tom Hank’s best friend, in Forrest Gump. He turned it down because he felt the part was too racially motivated.)

What we do know about the brain, and what’s also good for all of us, is that it’s built with marijuana in mind. Thank you cannabinoid receptors. Thank you.

###

That said, not everyone who decides to partake in the greenery has a brain built to function on it.

Some are complete fucking morons. No surprise, right?

###

Who’s sick of all the camo clothing coming out lately? Not me.

Even though I think this might be a base attempt at associating a product with a beneficial cause to increase sales, they’re still doing some good.

###

Politics and politicians are an interesting affair. Want to know how your candidate feels about medical marijuana?

Watch for yourself.

Want to see an unusual point of view? Listen to this guy.

While matters might not be moving forward as quickly as we’d hope in the states, things seem to be improving in the Czech Republic. Not exactly close to home, I know.

What would a giant do if he needed a glass pipe or bowl with some personality? If only we knew.

Not a giant? Maybe you can pretend to be one in Nintendo 64? Ah well, at least you can now smoke while getting your brain scanned.

There is a lot of movement and uncertainty in the global economy right now. Not just for the major markets like housing and financial lending, but also for the marijuana micro-economy.

In North America, the fall of the US dollar combined with the subsequent raise in value of the Canadian dollar, has slowed transportation of BC & other Northern buds from making their way down to America. The dangers of smuggling across the US border, lack of increased financial benefit, and higher demand from domestic cities have all combined to keep growers thinking local.

In addition, many Mexican cartels have moved into rural Texas, New Mexico and Arizona to start stateside grow operations. These cartels can produce plenty of weight for cheap and don’t have to deal with the increased surveillance of the US-Mexico border.

How is this trend going to affect us? Less availability of higher quality strains for the recreational smoking population in the Northwest - Portland and Seattle. We might also see low-weight prices of Northern strains raise for the recreational and medical communities. Damn loonies.

###

What has law enforcement taught us this week?

First, the candy business isn’t all sweetness and laughter. Second, one ton is a hell of a lot of marijuana. Third, Kern County is paying attention so you better pack some insurance.

As always, way too many Americans are being arrested for smoking weed. This costs money.

###

The current political spotlight on Blackwater, the private security contractor, doesn’t seem to be diminishing just yet. They even managed to grab a piece of the privatized War on Drugs.

###

Here comes the segue…

The War on Drugs: A Success Story - a sobering look at the very simple hole that todays possession laws can sink you in to.

From Olive Garden, to Universal Studios, to Smith & Nephew, and even back to Walgreens, it seemed that no one would touch him. Why? Because a few months prior, he [Danny] liked to smoke a little weed every once in a while, and eventually he got caught for it.

Luckily, this story shows the power of community and the ability that positive, constructive comments have to lift ones spirits. What would you do faced with a similar dilemma?
