Sarettah,

Is it your position that the law is being misinterpreted by the Drug Enforcement Agency and the Attorney General of the US, that the law is vague and will have to be fought in the courts, or something else? I'm not sure what your position is.

lolol Colin, I don't know if I know my position anymore either....

My reason for originally posting the article was to say that there are much better ways for the feds to be spending their time and money then to go after a few paraphenelia shops on the net.....

Whether they are legal or illegal, they are small fry...... If there is a problem with them, let the states, county, town level handle them.....

The Feds should be looking at the big picture...... Cocaine and Heroin coming into our country are bankrolling international criminal cartels and possibly terrorist organizations... This is where the time and effort should be put forth.....

Back a few years ago, under George I, he announced his "War on Drugs", selling it to the American people by announcing they were goingto shut down all the drugs coming from foreign countries...

They didn't make a dent in foreign exportation, they did however make a big showboat out of busting humboldt County, California Pot farmers....

This bust, and the way it was announced, looks like showboating to me... and I think there are more important things for the Feds to be spending my money on then busting Tommy Chong for selling pipes.....

Like I said, there are local levels of enforcement that could/should handle this....

The whole thing reminds me of the end of summer around here... Each summer, around the end of August, a whole bunch of local, state and federal law enforcement agencies get together and go up to Smithville Lake (Clay/Platte County Missouri) and cut down Pot plants.... They then announce that they have taken all this millions of dollars worth of Marijuana off of the streets...

Fact is that the pot grows naturally there because the entire area used to be Hemp plantations... What they cut down has no street value, nobody is going up there and harvesting it, nor is anybody out on the streets selling "smithville gold"...

It is a showboat operation which gets them their annual budget because the know nothings within the government buy off on it and it gives them a warm fuzzy feeling to help shut down the international trafficking of marijuana.....

My predictions on the paraphenalia bust are that the cases will be dropped or thrown out of court and will end up just being a waste of time and money.....
