AG Holder: "No more raids on Marijuana Co-Ops"

Thank you, Mr. President!
:)>:)>:)>:)>

Another Major Victory for the forces of change.
Atty. General Eric Holder has announced an end to the inhuman raids, conducted by the DEA and other federal authorities, against the will of the people and government of the affected states, against the Medical Marijuana Dispensaries often known as Co-Ops.

The malicious and basically terrorist methods employed by the Bush Regime against these dispensaries in the past have cost people a great deal of money and in some cases their lives.
Now, it seems, justice has found it’s way into the Justice Department. Installed by our President who has kept another campaign promise and has done so in meaningful fashion.

From the California Statehouse Examiner:

Advocates of legalizing marijuana are having a great week in California.

First, San Francisco’s Tom Ammiano initiated a bill to legalize pot use in the state, and tax it at about “a buck a joint,” one report claimed.

Today came word that newly installed U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder would stop the practice established by the Bush administration of raiding legally licensed medical marijuana dispensaries.

The Drug Enforcement Agency will now cease the raids that have continued, according to reports, even after Bush left office. Holder said Obama’s campaign promise to stop the raids is “now American policy.”

San Francisco has about two dozen such clubs, and has often been targeted by the feds. The city recently passed legislation to regulate the businesses more effectively.

“Holder’s declaration is a high point for the movement to legalize medical marijuana, which has been growing for decades despite federal hostility,” a report in the Huffington Post stated.

And this line from their story is just to good to pass up: “Patriotic potheads love to point out that cannabis was grown at Jamestown, that George Washington might have used hashish, and that Thomas Jefferson wrote a draft of the Declaration of Independence on hemp-fiber paper,”

Read the rest of the report for all you ever wanted to know, and a lot you probably didn’t on the push to legalize marijuana.

Make no mistake. This is one of the biggest victories we have ever won and it comes very close to being the proverbial “straw” we need to end the madness that is the Drug War on the American People.

The Obama administration, thanx be to God, is directing it’s efforts at stopping the Mexican Cartels that are murdering innocent people along the border. Those pigs (cartels) are not of our culture. They murder for the money and must be wiped out completely.
Perhaps the next step will be to end the billions of dollars in drug trade profit that attracts the violent and the ruthless.

Legalize. That’s the answer.
But for now, our gov’t is making great strides to inject some justice and sanity into an out of control situation.
Put the DEA on the border, leave us the fuck alone. That’s the America we’ve been waiting for and we get closer to it every day.

How sweet it is.

Rock on, Mr. President. Rock on.

According to:

http://www.alternet.org/drugreporter/129383/marijuana_milestone%3A_no_more_raids_on_pot_dispensaries%2C_says_attorney_general/ -

"Nearly 75 million Americans live in the 13 states where medical marijuana is legal".

Oh, the temptation to know, first hand, what it's like to live in one of those States.
