is Marc Emery's Cannabis Culture forum on the Sfetkopoulos
victory. Of course, Marc "the Narc's" crowd push the government
line about this being about the problem of growers being fixed
without considering the big picture.
First, the big picture: The Hitzig Court of Appeal ruled that
when the MMAR was flawed by 4 defects, the possession prohibition
was invalid between Terry Parker Day Aug 1 2001 and Alan Young
Day Oct 7 2003 when he says his Hitzig case resurrected the
prohibition that the Parker case had invalidated.
Now the Sfetkopoulos case ruled that the MMAR was flawed by 1
defect so the possession prohibition is invalid since it was re-
installed on "stupid gimme" day!
Russell Barth asks: "I would like to know how soon the government
plans to comply with this ruling?"
The longer they do not comply, the longer no one can argue that
the prohibition has been resurrected a la Professeur Saboteur. So
I don't want them to fix the exemption. I prefer having the
prohibition invalid.
Once they do comply with his demand, Russell Barth will be able
to argue that with a now-working MMAR, the possession prohibition
is now back alive, the same resurrection stunt Alan Young pulled,
fixing the MMAR and unrepealing the dead law alive.
Of course, since the MMAR was flawed and the prohibition invalid
in 2001, we always found it suspect that Alan Young would
concentrate on fixing the 4-flawed MMAR for the sick rather than
using its flaws to get the prohibition declared dead for the sick
and the healthy.
Now here, in 2009, with the MMAR found to be flawed once again
and the prohibition once again turned off, I find it again
suspect that Russell Barth is intent on fixing the 1-flawed MMAR
for the sick rather than using its flaw to get the prohibition
declared dead for the sick and the healthy.
Russell Barth is trying to score the same Judas Goat resurrection
coup as the Professeur Saboteur. Yet Ganja Gilligan Young is
still lionized despite oopsing the resurrection of the
prohibition in Parker in 2003. I guess Russell expects to be also
lionized when he can say he oopsed the resurrection of the
prohibition in Sfetkopoulos in 2009.
Deja vu? We'll see.
