"High Times" Magazine Publisher Rick Cusick and
Keith Stroup Founder of the National
Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws (NORML) were arrested
for allegedly sharing a marijuana
cigarette on Boston Common in September 2007.
The two have refused the offer to dismiss the case with an apology.
The two and their defense team plan to challenge
the constitutionality of marijuana prohibition.
Their next court date is May 15th, 10AM, 24 New Chardon St., Boston. Press conference to follow.
MA State Representative Martin Walsh speaking at the State House on 3/18/2008.
Starting out Rep. Walsh says that he would support making alcohol illegal.
He moves on to the disproven propaganda about marijuana being a gateway drug. He also seems to completely ignore the fact that people in his own district are having trouble finding work after being arrested for one joint, 10 years ago.
And somewhere in the rant, Walsh blows off the majority of voters in his district (57%), who have voted for marijuana decrim.
Is this guy for real?
