美国人也许今年没有做它对联赛,但使纽约人,您振作是#1在 arresting黑人或西班牙人为抽烟的大麻. 看见? 它不是所有皱眉。

那是否是一少许冷的? 我抱歉。 没有我不是。

真实地可悲看乔Torre象这样出去,并且,即使唐Mattingly也许导致得到工作和是一位了不起的教练,没人在球员眼睛将替换乔。 它是象菲尔·离开湖人队(再)或比尔Belichik的杰克逊离开爱国者。 正义没有好为大家一般来说。

美国的法律重和好诉讼文化确定地是独特的在这个世界。 提名Tim吴,哥伦比亚法学院教授,极端写了 令人深思的考试 一贯地残破的法律。

这个系列在美国法律探索交通事故多发地段: 我们的法律定期地和通常违反的区域,并且执法反应是…没什么的地方。 这些是区域,为一个原因或另,我们决定容忍lawbreaking并且让被立法的法律交付和在仍然书放置休耕或近的死者。

题目从处方药恶习范围到版权事态并且不是为轻的读者。

明显的对比在新的法律(安置在书以回应具体起因)和衰减律(慢慢地允许消失,不用任何夸耀)聚焦之间怎样我们的创立人没有认为 一切 当拼合我们的政体时。

我知道我们是晚,但第7每年高时间 石奖 是上星期。

这Tera帕特里克谈论 是赠送者.

内幕 在所有 优胜者和到会者名单。

当我是在著名琢石者时题目, 果渣& Jodie刚玉粉 在CBC Newsworld开张了他们的记录片在加拿大。 罐的王子是寂静的 承担美国 并且,一如既往,确定过程是有大量文件证明的。

我祝愿他们将停止提供 Amy Winehouse 并且她的较小罐争论。 我在这个女孩每个星期两次看一篇新闻文章现在,那里必须在更加有趣的事报告。 权利?

在您知道它之前她将搬到马尼拉,并且开始上出租汽车乘坐从 这个人.

不要感觉象旅行的Winehouse样式? 不管哪里您去,总将有一些 全世界大麻信息 等待。

您是否想要抽烟 卡扎克斯坦Bernardsville,新泽西 越多信息好。

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?
