First off, I want to thank everyone
that came out for the 11th MMM
Conference in Grand Rapids this March.
A special thanks goes out to Bridgett
and John from Horizon Hydro in Grand
Rapids, Kalamazoo and Captain Kirk for
teaching some incredible classes and
helping bring it all together. Our 12th
MMM Conference is scheduled for July
9-10th in Genesee County.
Patients and caregivers came out
to Gaylord and Lansing last month to
protest the recent raids against medical
marijuana facilities. MMM Report
proudly supports all efforts to bring
awareness to the issue, and we want
to thank everyone who showed up and
participated. Hemptress Jolene is a real
hero for our cause, as well as Al Witt
and Chad Marrow. It was these folks
who spearheaded these protests.
This Hash Bash Issue is filled with
some great stories, including a great
piece by our staff writer John Sinclair,
and guest contributor Tim Beck. If
you are unaware, both of these two
gentleman are mostly responsible
for the cannabis law reform here in
Michigan. I hope to see everyone on
April 2nd on the Diag and on Monroe
Street Fair.
Don’t forget to circulate and sign
the Abrogate Petition and mail it in.

Traffic Stop
Leads to
Possession
and Weapons
Charges
Owosso: A man
from Owosso was
arrested in Indiana
this month after a
routine traffic stop led
to the discovery of 2
loaded handguns, over
a pound of marijuana,
and more than 200
pieces of paraphernalia. Police in Indiana contacted
Michigan police, who searched the man’s home in Owosso
and found a large grow operation consisting of more than
36 plants and 100 grams of processed flowers. He will be
held in Indiana on charges of possession with intent to sell,
possession of a handgun without a license, and possession
of paraphernalia before being turned over to the Michigan
State Police.
Pontiac Man
Sentenced
2 to 40 Years
Oakland County:
Richard Lee Hartwick has
been fighting growing and
possession charges since his
home was raided in 2012. His
case went to the Michigan
Supreme Court before it was
remanded to the Oakland
County Circuit Court. Once
handed back to the Circuit
Court, Hartwick’s lawyer attempted to get the case dismissed
‘due to the involvement of a former officer’ who initially took
the report but was fired in 2013 after being accused of lying
on the witness stand in an unrelated marijuana case. Judge
Matthews denied the dismissal and sentenced Hartwick
to 2 to 40 years in prison, an enhanced sentence because
of the fourth-time offender laws in Michigan. Hartwick
has maintained his innocence and claims that his medical
marijuana card made him immune to the charges.
CMU Cannabis Use on the Rise
Mt. Pleasant: Marijuana use on the Central
Michigan Campus has nearly doubled over the last
4 years, according to the CMU police department.
In 2012 there were 45 incidents of marijuana use
reported, but that number has increased to 82 in
2015. Since 2012, 96% of drug related complaints
rise from marijuana while only 3% involved
prescription drug use. Most incidents of drug use
are reported when a staff member can smell the
plant coming from a room in the dorm. The smell is
conveyed to police who confront the suspected user,
confiscate any related material found, and decide
whether to press charges or turn the student over
to the Office of Student Conduct. While the police
are finding that, in many cases, the student has a
medical card, marijuana is still banned on campus.
This rule forces students, who have their cards, to
medicate and store their medication at a location
that is not as easily accessible for them. Police,
however, say that it’s still an illegal substance and a
big deal, so the policy will probably not change any
time soon. Alcohol incidents were not included in
any data.

W.E.M.E.T. Raids 4 Dispensaries
One Last Hit
Clinton Township: Nycassio Hinds, a 36 year old from
Clinton Township, apparently decided if he was going to
go to jail for operating an unregistered vehicle with an
illegal license plate he was going to finish his joint and call
his family first. State police attempted to stop Hinds after
noticing he had an improper plate on his vehicle, but he
continued driving, even holding up his index finger at one
point, indicating he needed a minute before he would pull
over. According to police, Hinds knew he had a warrant in
Florida, had marijuana in his possession, and assumed he
would be going to jail. So he took the extra time to finish
his joint and call his family while adding fleeing an officer
and driving while impaired to his charges. Shelby Township
police assisted State police to box the suspect in and
arrest him without incident. His extradition to Florida for
narcotics charges has been placed on hold.
Allegan County: The West Michigan Enforcement Team
(WEMET) raided four dispensaries in Allegan County this
month after receiving silent observer tips that the businesses
were not distributing to their own registered patients. The
raids commenced after undercover officers were able to buy
the medication without being patients registered to the
distributor. Police say the dispensaries did not appear to
be marijuana shops, for example one shop looked to be an
antique store at first glance.
While dispensaries are not currently legal, there are many
counties in which the prosecutors will not pursue charges.
Though no one has yet been arrested as a result of the raids,
officers are considering charges for selling the products to
patients not registered to the distributing caregivers. The
police also confiscated THC infused candies and brownies,
which are still illegal under the current MMP. Lt. Nate Grant
told mLive that people working in the dispensaries usually
have one of two responses to this type of raid; ‘either they
believed that they were allowed to sell to any legal cardholder,
or they knew it was illegal but wanted to get the jump on
possible legalization in the fall.’
Man Sentenced for Growing in National Forest
Grand Rapids: Quinton Allen Mosley Sr. was sentenced this month to a little over 7 years in
prison for what authorities call ‘conspiracy to make money from the illegal cultivation, harvest,
sale, and distribution of marijuana’ that has spanned nearly a decade. Police say that Mosley
and his coconspirators, including three of his family members, have been growing marijuana in
heavily forested areas on federal land. Mosley was found to be harvesting 1,800 plants in the
Huron-Manistee National Forest. Officials believe Mosley began distributing largely to fund his
own drug addiction which is reported to include morphine, OxyContin, and methadone.

A Visit with
State Senator Patrick Colbeck
by Tim Beck
new tax increases, including taxes on
marijuana. In addition, I got the strong
impression from his body language, he
hates cannabis in any form. The Senator
went on to explain that “only a discharge
motion” approved by Senate Majority
Leader Arlan Meekoff will ever get the
bill to the floor for a vote, and he flatly
predicted this would not happen.
I had the opportunity last week to
commiserate with Republican State
Senator Patrick Colbeck at a GOP/
libertarian dinner meeting at the “Huron
River Hunting and Fishing Club” in
Oakland County
Senator Colbeck, a former aerospace
engineer, is said to be a rock ribbed “Tea
Party” conservative, whose pet hatred
appears to be taxes. In addition, he
doesn’t seem to like cannabis either.
That is a real problem for medical
patients and canna business owners
who would like to have statewide safe
access to dispensaries. His perspective
does not bode well for leaders of groups
like MI Legalize, who would like to see
legalization of cannabis on the ballot in
2016.
Senator Colbeck is a very important
player in Lansing. He sits on the
powerful Senate Judiciary Committee.
This committee holds the fate of any and
all proposals for safe access to medical
cannabis patients via dispensaries, under
its sole purview.
The medical cannabis community
has struggled for over four years for safe
access in the State Legislature, and has
been blocked by the Michigan Senate
at every turn. The first time was in 2014
where after two years of negotiation, a
very reasonable bill passed the House;
but it was killed in the Senate by
Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard
and his law enforcement cronies.
In the next attempt, canna business
lobbyists bent over backwards to
appease law enforcement with a
different, more restrictive dispensary
model. It seems they succeeded to some
extent and arch conservative former
Eaton County Sheriff Rick Jones, Senate
Judiciary Chairman, got on board with
the new model.
12
Later on, during a public Q & A
session with the audience after dinner, I
asked the Senator about the recent vote
on SB776, which would limit signature
gathering on ballot initiatives to 180
days, no exceptions. I was especially
curious as to how he thought the House
might vote, and whether or not the bill
will be given immediate effect.
Again, it was all to no avail. Senator
Jones was unable to persuade a
majority of his five person committee
to vote the bill to the Senate floor, after
hearings were conducted in December.
Three Senators stood in his way: west
Michigan Republican Tonya Schuitmaker,
Sterling Heights Republican Tory Rocca
and Colbeck from Canton.
Schuitmaker (my State Senator) has
said from day one that until the FDA
approves medical marijuana, she will
never vote to support it in any form.
Rocca, whose family dynasty has been
big in Macomb County Republican
politics for years,(and wants to keep it
that way) has been no mystery either. He
has repeatedly expressed his distaste
for medical cannabis, implying it to be
a hoax. He asked a top tier lobbyist
friend of mine sometime ago why they
even bother coming back around and
pestering him about the subject. Colbeck
however, was never so explicit on the
matter--- until he cleared up the mystery
last week.
Again, the Senator’s answer was very
clear:
“180 days should be 180 days, that
is the intent.” He went on to suggest
the House was a bit more weak kneed
then the Senate, because they are up
for reelection this year. Nonetheless, he
predicted it is likely they will eventually
follow the Senate lead on the matter.
Finally, in a cryptic statement, he
declared “no agency or bureaucracy” is
going to dictate public policy on such
an issue. That is the prerogative of the
Legislature.
He told me this legislation “will get
out of committee over my dead body”
He said in principle he opposes all

Ohio’s Attorney
General Rejects
Proposed Amendment
Ohio: A proposed amendment
to the Ohio Constitution was
rejected by Attorney General
Mike DeWine this month citing
two defects with the summary
language of the petition. The
amendment attempted to
legalize marijuana in the state for medical and industrial use.
The petition, titled “Medical Cannabis and Industrial Hemp
Amendment”, was submitted by a legal counsel representing
the petitioners who gathered 1,000 valid signatures. AG
DeWine, however, stated the defects in the language were: “1.
it omits references to proposed amendment language that
industrial hemp and medicinal cannabis shall be researched,
regulated, and promoted by the State in a manner substantially
similar to other agricultural crops. And 2. The summary
language states that the proposed amendment provides the
right to a fair and transparent licensing process for cannabisrelated commerce and provides equal opportunity for access,
ownership, and employment for all Ohio citizens who have
attained the age of 21 years old. However, the proposed
amendment establishes the age limitation only on licensing
and not on receiving equal opportunity to access, ownership,
and employment.” DeWine stated in a letter to petitioners, “For
these reasons, I am unable to certify the summary as a fair and
truthful statement of the proposed amendment.”
Google Blocks Medical Marijuana Ads
New York: Ari Hoffnung, CEO of a licensed medical
marijuana dispensary, Vireo Health, claims Google denied
the company the opportunity to advertise with them.
Hoffnung says the advertisements would promote the
dispensary locations and medical conditions their products
can be used for. Google claims, in an email sent to Vireo,
they would not permit the ads because the search engine
does not “allow promotion of substances that alter the
mental state for recreation or otherwise induce highs,
products or services marketed to facilitate drug use, or
instructional content about producing, purchasing, or
using recreational drugs.” Hoffnung, however, argues that
his products are for medicinal purposes, not recreational,
and that New York’s medical program is “highly controlled”.
Attorney Paul Derohannesian told TWC News that the
issue comes up because marijuana use, for any reason,
is still illegal under federal law so advertising, even in
legal states, needs to first be dealt with by the federal
government. Hoffnung is hopeful that public pressure
will sway the company into changing its mind but is also
considering legal options in the future.
Medical Cannabis for Minors
Connecticut: The Public Health Committee in
Hartford approved a proposed legislation this month
that would allow qualified patients under the age
of 18 to use medical marijuana for debilitating
illnesses. The decision comes days after the funeral
of Cyndiemae Meehan, a 13 year-old girl with
epilepsy who testified with her mother in favor
of the legislation. Representative Kevin Ryan
has proposed the bill be named in honor of
Cyndiemae. If the bill is approvaed, patients
who meet the necessary requirements will
need the consent of a parent or guardian
to receive the medication. The proposal
is now in the House of Representatives
to be considered for further action.

Progress in the
Keystone State
Pennsylvania:
Pennsylvania’s House of
Representatives voted in favor
of Senate Bill 3, bringing the
state one step closer to being
the 25th state to legalize
medical marijuana. State
Rep. Margo Davidson voted
for the bill stating cannabis
can fight many diseases, with
‘a main one being epilepsy,
particularly in children.’ The bill could be on the Governor’s
desk as early as the 23rd of March and Governor Wolf has
already agreed to sign the bill when it comes before him.

Supreme Court
Dismisses Colorado
Cannabis Case
Washington, D.C.: The
Supreme Court dismissed
a case brought against
Colorado by its two
neighboring states, Nebraska and Oklahoma. The complaint
brought before the court stated that Colorado’s amendment
allowing marijuana for recreational use is “unconstitutional
because it frustrates the enforcement of federal drug laws”
according to the Huffington Post.
Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas disagreed
with the dismissal, believing that it is the Supreme Court’s
constitutional role to handle disputes between states.
Thomas felt the case should have been allowed to continue
as the plaintiff states had a “reasonable case” as they claim
that Colorado’s Amendment 64 “has increased trafficking
and transportation of Colorado-sourced marijuana into
their territories, requiring them to expend significant law
enforcement, judicial system, and penal system resources
to combat the increased trafficking and transportation”. The
dismissal of the case is a victory for Colorado. Mason Tvert,
director of communications for the Marijuana Policy Project
based in Colorado, is happy with the outcome telling NPR:
“States have every right to regulate the cultivation and sale of
marijuana, just as Nebraska and Oklahoma have the right to
maintain their failed prohibition policies.”
K-9 Unit Sniffs Out 25 Pounds
Indiana: State police pulled over a vehicle in late March
for following too closely on the expressway. The officer
suspected criminal activity due to several suspicious
indicators from the driver and called for a K-9 unit. The
canine officer detected illegal substances in the car, which
was then searched. Police found 25lbs. of high-grade
marijuana in duffle bags worth an estimated $150,000 in
street value. The two men in the vehicle were arrested and
face felony charges of dealing marijuana over 10lbs and
possession of marijuana over 10lbs.
Senator Lewis Opposes Commercial Cannabis
Massachusetts: Senator Jason M. Lewis of Massachusetts
has had a stance of neutrality when it comes to marijuana
legalization. Sen. Lewis wanted to get a better idea of the drug,
so he interviewed more than 50 experts on the topic, read the
current research intently, and had a firsthand observation of a state
with legalization in place. Having obtained information and data,
Lewis has abandoned neutrality and begun speaking out against
legalizing marijuana in his state. The opinion carries a lot of weight
as he is the chair of the special legislative committee on marijuana.
According to the Boston Gazette, Lewis claims his position on
the issue is influenced by his role as a father and public official
saying, “I am opposed to the likely ballot question because this
is the wrong time for Massachusetts to go down this road, and a
commercial, profit-driven market is the wrong approach to take.”
The ballot Lewis refers to would make using, possessing, and
giving away up to one ounce of recreational marijuana legal for
residents 21 and older, and allow for retail sales beginning in 2018.
Lewis feels that the measure could make cannabis more accessible
for minors while teaching them that marijuana is safe to use. The
senator maintains that he is not opposed to marijuana legalization,
but he would like to see the state get their medicinal laws
corrected and the federal government ease their restrictions before
moving forward with recreational legalization in Mass.

One Year for Two Grams
Somalia: Abdirahman Aden
Mohamud, a 21 year-old man,
was sentenced to one year and
two months imprisonment after
attempting to sell marijuana to
a plain clothes officer three days
prior. Mohamud approached the
officer and offered the drugs. He
was immediately searched, where
two grams of cannabis were found
on his person, and charged with
trafficking marijuana as it was
not for personal use. The court
recommended his sentenced to be
served at Mount Carmel Hospital
for mental health treatment
instead of the Corradino
correctional facility and also
ordered Mohamud to pay €1,000.
Airport Bust in the Persian Gulf
Dubai: An Indian man, called only HK by Gulf Today, has
been detained in Dubai after being caught smuggling
marijuana through the Dubai International Airport.
Customs inspectors say HK slapped himself in the face
with both hands after officers found a false compartment
in the bottom of his luggage sealed with duct tape. HK
first came to the inspectors attention when he asked
Inspector IK where the exit to the airport was, apparently
looking nervous and confused. When IK asked HK for his
passport the man refused, until the inspector asked to
check his bag. At that point HK tried to insist on giving
the inspector his passport and refusing him access to the
bag. IK acted on the suspicious behavior and took HK to a
private inspection room where his person and bag were
searched. Once removing the duct tape from the hidden
compartment officers found marijuana and seeds. HK
slapped himself in the face while admitting to smuggling
marijuana and was referred to the Anti-Narcotics Office
within the airport.

Cannabis Shortage in NZ
New Zealand: Marijuana is illegal in New Zealand and
can carry a NZ$500 fine for possession or a 2-14 year prison
sentence for growing, cultivation, supply, or manufacturing, but
that hasn’t stopped many Kiwi’s from indulging in the herb.
New Zealanders who enjoy the benefits of the plant, however,
are facing a problem other than legality, they are facing a
cannabis shortage. A resident in the area, who has used the
medicine for the last 14 years to treat depression and has had
no problems finding it during that time, claims the shortage
has forced him to go to his doctor for a prescription of antidepressants. The price of the marijuana that can be found
is outrageous and the quality poor. Many blame it on police
efforts as well as flooding early last year that destroyed crops.
One woman from California, who is now a citizen of New
Zealand, may have opened other options for cannabis to
come into the country. Rebecca Reider’s lawyer found a loop
hole in the laws after her client was arrested for medical
chocolate that had been sent to her from California where
she had a prescription for the drug. The loophole allows
someone with a valid medical card from overseas to bring a
one month’s supply of their medication into the country. While
this will not necessarily improve things for the black market,
it does offer other opportunities to bring the plant into the
country. Currently the only marijuana that is actually legal in
New Zealand is a medicinal mouth spray, Sativex, and costs
approved patients NZ$1,000 a month.
Big Grow Brought Down
Spain: An abandoned hotel on
the coast of the Mediterranean
was found, by Spanish police, to
contain hundreds of marijuana
plants. When police raided the
building in late March, they found
hundreds of marijuana plants in
various stages of growth covering three of the five floors in
the hotel. Four people were arrested on suspicion of running
a marijuana growth operation. In total the police seized 2,491
plants, as well as fertilizers, ventilation equipment, and air
conditioners. Authorities believe the haul would have a street
value of €60,000 ($67,000).

Couple Found with $2 Mil. in Marijuana
Aussie Father Avoids Jail
TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: An investigation is still ongoing
after the arrest of a man and woman from Longdenville
involving $2 million worth of high grade marijuana. The
Arouca CID and task force were forced to break down the door
of the couple’s apartment after they refused to allow officers
into the home. Once they entered the apartment officers
found more than 100 blocks of compressed marijuana, which
weighed nearly 150lbs. The suspects are currently awaiting
charges and sentencing while police continue investigating
the source and purpose of the marijuana.
Queensland, Australia: The father of a 3 year old
girl suffering from cancer was given a two-year good
behavior bond in lieu of jail time after feeding cannabis oil
to his daughter. Medical and recreational use of marijuana
is still illegal in the state, though there is legislation
pending that would allow for medicinal use. The father
had researched the benefits of medical marijuana online
and purchased oil from South Wales and the US to make
chocolate for his child. He claims that not only did it help
calm her while she was in the hospital, but it gave her the
appetite she didn’t have before. The judge hearing the
case had never heard one like it saying, “It is a case that I
have not previously encountered. What you did, no matter
how much you believed in the positive effects, was both
wrong and illegal and certainly in circumstances where it
was done without reference to the doctors treating your
daughter.” The judge showed the man leniency as he had
a clean record and promised he would refrain from giving
the child the medicine until it becomes legal.
Chile Begins
Manufacturing Meds
Happy Maha Shivaratri!
Kathmandu: March 7th began the Shivaratri (Night of
Shiva) festival for those who follow the Hindu religion. The
Shivaratri festival is the celebration of the marriage of Shiva,
one of the major Hindu Gods, to the goddess Parvati, which
followers believe saved the world from darkness. A general
belief of the religion is that Shiva smoked marijuana before
meditation to enable relaxation and focus. His followers try to
imitate their God by smoking cannabis and remaining celibate.
Many people travel to Nepal’s holiest temple, Pashupati, during
this festival to sit around bonfires and smoke from clay pipes.
The smoke from the fire mixes with the marijuana smoke
which is meant to help devotees focus on communicating with
Shiva. Though temple authorities have been cracking down on
the use of Prasad (marijuana), they still allow it into the temple
on Shiva Ratri as it is a holy holiday. Many followers renounce
possessions and devote their lives to Shiva, believing love and
culture should be valued over everything else.
Chile: Authorities in Chile have begun
harvesting the largest legal marijuana field
in Latin America. The 6,000 plants will be
made into pain killers for the country’s
cancer, epilepsy, and chronic pain patients. The crops have
been protected by 24 hour surveillance, an electric fence,
guard dogs, and video cameras throughout the growing
season and will now be harvested by local workers wearing
protective suits and gloves. The grow project will form
the basis of three large clinical studies, which will be
determined by the Chilean National Cancer Institute and
two hospitals in the region, who will also give the free
medication to those in need. While the Chilean president
signed a decree allowing the manufacture of cannabis for
medicinal purposes, the plant is still on the list of hard
drugs in the country and possession is punishable by up
to 10 years in prison. Lawmakers in the area are currently
working on a bill that would move cannabis off of that list
and into a less severe category.

Homemade CO2
Plants need both full spectrum light sources and
carbon dioxide to perform the essential process of
photosynthesis. For larger grow rooms, supplement CO2
requires measured releases supplied. CO2 generators work
by burning propane or natural gas and produce some
unwanted heat. Compressed CO2 in large bulk containers
produces no heat, but the tanks are heavy and bulky and
need to be refilled often.
In smaller grows, many farmers like to use natural
CO2 producers like activated yeast or fermenting organic
materials. In this grow tip we will be covering how to
make a yeast based homemade CO2 generator. To make
your own you will need:
• 1 five gallon bucked with sealing lid (must be clean)
• 1 adjustable aquarium heater
• 1 plumbing fitting to attach hose
• (1) 1 foot section of hose
• Duct tape
• Yeast
• Sugar
1. Using the plumbing fitting trace a circle on the bucket
lid for the hole for the fitting. Drill the hole and screw on
the fitting.
2. Make a ¾ inch hole for the aquarium heater cord. Pull
the cord through the lid, so that the heating unit is in the
bucket, and secure with duck tape.
3. Attach the tube to the fitting on the top of the lid.
4. Add gallon of warm water, 4 ounces of yeast and 1 cup
of sugar. Secure lid on the bucket and plug in the heater
cord.
5. Replace yeast/sugar/ water mixture every three weeks.

recall Governor Snyder and
legalize cannabis have been
approved for circulation.
According to recent Survey
USA Poll commissioned by the
Michigan Medical Marijuana
Report, Cannabis Stakeholders
Group and Abrogate Prohibition
Michigan, Michiganders would
support both recalling Rick
Snyder and to legalize marijuana.
Michigan voters want to recall
Governor Rick Snyder, according
to a new SurveyUSA poll. 934
registered voters statewide were
interviewed 03/23/16 through
03/24/16. Young voters are more
likely to want to remove the
Governor; older voters are more
likely to want Snyder to remain
in office. 85% of those who are
“very liberal” want the Governor
out of office, compared to 69% of
liberals, 47% of moderates, 34%
of conservatives and 28% of “very
conservative” voters.
By 54% to 39%, voters favor
22
the legalization of marijuana
for adult use. Support for
legalization extends to all
regions of the state.
This Easter Sunday, the
current effort to Recall Governor
Snyder will begin with the
petition kick-off. Pastor David
Bullock from Detroit and Quincy
Murphy, from the City of Flint
Charter Review Commission are
the lead organizers of the recall
efforts and they are organizing
volunteers from around the state
to gather signatures to recall
the Governor. Leaders of the
two recall groups have joined
together and will use the same
petition form.
“Now is the time for all of
the People to let there voice
be heard, organize, sign the
petition, and get out the vote
for this Governor to be removed
from office since he is not
willing to resign,” asserted
Quincy Murphy. “Several elected
leaders, community activists, and
April 2016
organizations has called for him
to step down. “
There are two petitions to
legalize cannabis in Michigan.
MI Legalize started collecting
Signatures in the summer
of 2015, but failed to reach
their deadline last December.
Attempts to change the policy
regarding the 180 day window
for collecting signatures has
stalled, leaving the majority of
signatures “stale and void.” The
Abrogate Prohibition Michigan
Amendment started gathering
signatures in January this year,
to repeal or abrogate, the laws
that make cannabis illegal under
the Michigan Constitution. The
Cannabis Stakeholders Group
(CSG) has endorsed the abrogate
petition, and CSG board believes
this petition stands the best
chance of making the 2016
ballot if additional funds and
grass root support. Deadline for
turning in the Abrogate petition
is this Fourth of July.

Betty Aldworth, Executive
Director Students for Sensible
Drug Policy:
“This poll is yet another
indication that the era of
marijuana prohibition is quickly
coming to an end. A growing
majority of voters supports
legalization, and that’s especially
true of young people. While
harsh drug policies have been
waged in the name of protecting
youth, we’ve seen that young
people actually bear the brunt
of these laws through extremely
high arrest rates and collateral
punishments like the loss of
college financial aid. This new
data shows that if legalization
gets on Michigan’s ballot this
year it is likely to pass, and the
votes of college students who
are fed up with the current failed
policy will play a big role in
making that happen.”
Timothy Locke, Founder Abrogate
Prohibition Michigan:
Tim Beck, Chairman Safer
Michigan Coalition:
“Today’s poll results show
Michiganders across the board
are no longer accepting the lies
of Prohibition, and with support
of 54% spanning all political
platforms, including the full
backing of the Libertarian Party
of Michigan, Abrogate Prohibition
Michigan brings many of the
solutions we need to begin to
fix these systemic issues we
have all faced for over 45 years
as the result of the failed and
costly War on Drugs. Today, as
these results clearly detail,
Michiganders are ready to totally
repeal Marijuana Prohibition,
and are currently circulating and
signing the Abrogate Prohibition
Michigan Petition so every citizen
in the state will benefit from it’s
passing this November.”
“Neither of these poll
numbers are any surprise. State
Government has a very serious
credibility problem. Many voters
no longer believe the same tired
rhetoric and excuses for inaction
and incompetence. The Flint
water crisis happened under the
GOP’s watch. Over the past four
years, the Republican controlled
Legislature has consistently
blocked all reasonable efforts
to even improve the Michigan
Medical Marijuana Act, which
has overwhelming support
across party lines. Citizens are
righteously angry and there will
be political blow back down the
road before this is over.”

ighest greetings from Chicago, on my
way by train from New Orleans to Grand
Rapids for the 11th Michigan Medical
Marijuana Conference, and then on to
Detroit for a special occasion next week
when the Kresge Foundation honors
my ex-wife and mother of my children,
the great photographer Leni Sinclair, as
Detroit’s Eminent Artist of 2016.
This is quite an honor as she joins
other old friends of mine, the poet and
playwright Bill Harris and the late trumpet
great Marcus Belgrave, in this select
pantheon of eminent creative artists of
Detroit. Leni’s photographic contributions
to the cultural history of Detroit date
back more than 50 years to the creation
of the Detroit Artists Workshop, where
we collaborated with Bill Harris and
other poets like Robin Eichele,
George Tysh, and James Semark,
musicians Charles Moore, Ron
English and Danny Spencer,
painters Ellen Phelan, Howard
Weingarden, and Larry Weiner,
and a host of creative individuals
to establish our own place in the
heart of the city and develop an
audience for our work in art.
and a pioneer in the marijuana legalization
movement from the founding of Detroit
LEMAR early in 1965. She and my
dearly departed brother David Sinclair
spearheaded the long effort to free me from
prison on my 9-1/2-to-10-year sentence for
feloniously possessing two joints of weed
in December 1966. She also served on the
Central Committee of the White Panther
Party and the Rainbow Peoples Party in
Ann Arbor and was an organizer of the first
Hash Bash in 1972.
Leni and I were married in 1965 and
gave life to our daughter Sunny in 1967
and Celia in 1970 before we separated
as a couple in 1977. We continued to
do work together and collaborated on
raising our children and, since 2001,
our granddaughter Beyonce. Leni’s
photography is recognized all over the
world and was recently featured in exhibits
at the College for Creative Studies, the
Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, and
the Scarab Club, as well as exhibitions in
London, Rotterdam, and Lille, France.
Now I’m writing again from Detroit on
the day after Leni’s award ceremony—and,
oh yeah, after she received the $50,000
stipend in the form of a check from the
Kresge Foundation. That was a beautiful
thing!
Before that came a weekend in Grand
Rapids with Ben Horner and the cast
of characters from this magazine, who
combined to produce a fun-filled and very
successful conference at the Orbit Room
filled with people from Grand Rapids and
all over western Michigan.
But this week I’m looking
forward to the Hash Bash in
Ann Arbor, where this magazine
will be passed out for the sixth
consecutive year and I’ll be
celebrating with the hordes of
tokers at the formal ceremonies
on the Diag and following at the
Monroe Street Fair. This is our
61st issue, beginning the 6th
year of publication for Michigan
Medical Marijuana Report, and
as for the Cannabis Cup, this will
be number 45!

beginning, a cultural and

I’m also scrutinizing
the minions of law and
order in the City of
Detroit as they attempt
to corral and close down
scores of marijuana
dispensaries that have
sprung up in an entirely
unregulated atmosphere
since Detroit legalized
medical marijuana
in 2005 and further
legalized marijuana use
of all kinds in 2012. Both
measures were passed by
citizens’ initiative with
mire than 60% approval
by the voters, making
crystal clear the position
of Detroit residents on marijuana: we want
some!
A responsible city council would have
responded at once to the wishes of the
people back in 2006 and drafted regulatory
measures after the law was passed so that
proper marijuana dispensaries could be
opened and operated under a sensible
licensing scheme. When the city legalized
marijuana by initiative four years ago,
the need for a rational regulatory system
became even more pronounced.
But the city council turned its back
on the citizen smokers and ignored the
situation until police pressure and frenzied
agitation by special interest groups, many
religion-based, spurred them to take
action against the dispensaries, which the
city now estimated at 211. Each of these
new city-based businesses was opened
in an unrestrained atmosphere devoid
of rules and regulations governing such
establishments, and one would suppose
that they have thrived in this environment
because more and more facilities continue
to open their doors to the smoking public.
In the first place, one would assume
that a financially bankrupt and physically
ruined city like Detroit would be happy to
have over 200 new businesses of whatever
sort. But above and beyond the potential
tax and licensing revenues generated by
this activity, give a moment’s thought to the
idea of the city actually growing, harvesting
and distributing tons of marijuana to the
social order we inhabit.
At times like this it
feels like I’m preaching
to the choir, but it’s time
for all the believers to
unite behind this simple
truth and keep pushing
until we remove the
police and courts and
religious orders from
our lives as marijuana
smokers and FREE THE
WEED once and for all.
dispensaries and whatever other outlets
may evolve.
The City of Detroit owns thousands of
acres of empty land suitable for growing
crops like marijuana, augmented by
hundreds of vacant buildings equally
suitable to growing massive amounts of
weed—abandoned schools, fire stations,
police installations and the like. Say the
City were to embrace marijuana production
and sales to its citizen smokers as a possible
source of enormous municipal revenues.
This is not a pipe dream but something
that could actually happen with a little
civic foresight and a basic commitment
to common-sense solutions to societal
problems. But if this eventuality were ever
to be realized, the kind of idiotic, nonscientific, superstition-laden system of
beliefs which underpins our marijuana
laws would have to be thrown out in its
entirety and a completely new approach
to marijuana use and availability would
have to be adapted without reservation.
One last note: I
was a little more than
optimistic when I
reported last month on
the proposed changes
in the municipal marijuana laws in New
Orleans. The idea was to remove the
smoker from the arrest and/or ticketing
procedure so popular in law enforcement
circles. But in the end the police prevailed
and will retain the right to arrest and
prosecute marijuana smokers at will.
Remember, it’s not the size of the fine
nor the extent of the punishment but the
fact that the police can stop us and harass
us and search us and seize our stash and
run us in and subject us to criminal charges
and ruin our lives from that point on.
Have a happy Hash Bash and let’s put
legalization on the ballot and pass a new
law this year! FREE THE WEED!

I hate to sound like a broken record,
to use a popular metaphor from the
glorious days of 78 rpm singles and
vinyl albums, but what’s wrong with
this whole insane system is that there’s
nothing wrong with marijuana! It’s
good for us. It deals with many of
our medical problems in a very
pleasant and effective way, and to
top it off, weed gets us as high as
we need to be to deal with the sick

Thanks to All Who Attended!

was spot on for active THC and CBD.
The Orbit Room of Grand Rapids was packed for the 11th
MMM Conference and caregivers cup. Master of ceremonies,
“Captain” Kirk Reid, welcomed the attendees and was first to
teach on the stage. Completely captivated, Kirk Reid educated
a standing room only cooking class to start the day off. John
Ujlaky II from Horizon Hydro taught a brilliant class on Organic
Growing verses Hydroponics which attracted both advanced
and novice growers.
Dave Laclair’s durban poison was the first place saliva
winner and tested at 33.76%. This flower was frosty and had a
sweet peppery finish.
As the classes went on people kept pouring in throughout
the afternoon. As the first night came to a close the Caregiver
Cup contestants began showing up for the exclusive VIP
party where vendors and participants gathered at a top
secret location, There a smorgasbord of contestant entrees
were sampled. Copious amounts of cannabis in all forms was
consumed.
Leaf Doctor won first in the indica category with his famous
G-Cut, which tested at 30.6%. The OG Kush aroma and taste is
almost as pretty as the frosty nugs.
David Evans took first for his hybrid, the Blue Gun. Testing at
29.96% this strain tasted of blueberry and black licorice, large
stickyicky buds.
Best Concentrate was a collaborations of Zombie Labs and
Leaf Doctor. The shatter was made from an all-nug G-Cut run
and was the kushiest shatter ever made. Dank As F*ck!
Sunday morning was rough, but we all managed to return
to the Orbit Room. After the business seminar which taught
cannabis entrepreneurs about how to get involved in the
merging medical marijuana industry, ther was a legal panel
with legendary attorney Ter Beek who singlehandedly sued
the City of Wyoming for violation of the Michigan Medical
Marijuana Act.
The festivities ended with the award ceremonies. Winners
in all categories received a trophy and a hand blown glass
piece with the event lazed-engraved in a transparent bead. Act
Labs supplied the potency testing and the MMM Report staff
and friends supplied the judges score for taste, aroma, and
appearance.
Kirk Ried took first in the edible category for his sugar-free
Cola Hashers. The flavor had a diet Coke taste and packaging

Paraphernalia:
The Game Changing Medical Marijuana Argument
Warning to people with medical
marijuana cases and defenses: what
you are about to read may be the
most important front and angle to
pursue in Michigan Medical Marijuana Act
(MMMA) litigation to date. I am warning you
… it is groundbreaking, important, helpful,
destructive to the state’s cases and powerful.
Be warned: the angle that I’m pursuing
has the potential to be a game changer in
medical marijuana litigation. It is a like
getting a fifth down in football, an extra serve
in tennis, an extra final minute in basketball,
etc. The word:
Paraphernalia
In a ground breaking legal argument,
Rockind Law and I have filed a motion to
exclude evidence and to even declare some
statutes void based on … Paraphernalia.
No less than 7 lawyers who have read the
argument have called it “brilliant”, “genius”
and other glowing terms of approval. Not
one lawyer that has looked at it hasn’t shared
the view that it is brilliant, and the lawyers
that have looked at are no slouches, e.g.
Mary Chartier, Daniel Grow, Thomas Loeb,
Larry Smith, Michael Komorn, David Rudoi,
Colin Daniels, Paul Tylenda, Noel Erinjeri to
name just a few. In our continuing effort to
give life to the MMMA, we came up with this
argument and it is incredibly powerful and on
target. Beware, this is a game changer.
What is the argument? Simply put, MCL
333.26424(g), the section that immunizes
the possession or tendering of marijuana
paraphernalia “for purposes of a registered
qualifying patient’s medical use” requires that
most of the evidence that the state relies on
in a medical marijuana case, e.g., lists, money,
advice, lights, jars, baggies, cash registers,
buildings, places to meet, etc. are “marijuana
paraphernalia” and are thus excluded as
evidence. Take some time and think about it:
Still not getting it? I understand, its
complicated but once I explain it to you, you’ll
slap yourself in the head and say to yourself,
its so simple.
Where the prosecution
is bringing an
accomplice liability
type case, where
defendant’s are being
held accountable
for giving or providing things or items to
others, e.g., conspiracy, criminal enterprise
and accomplice liability, those acts and
items must be excluded from evidence as
“marijuana paraphernalia.” Think about it … if
the sticky notes in Mazur were paraphernalia,
anything given to a patient for the purposes
of a patient’s medical use is paraphernalia,
right? In a cocaine case, were one person to
pay for electricity, supplies, provide advice or
shelter to a cocaine distributor or trafficker,
it’d be evidence of conspiracy or accomplice
liability. Not in a medical marijuana case
according to Mazur.
Compare that example to a medical
marijuana case:
• Paid for and provided electricity ? In a
cocaine case, this would be accomplice
liability evidence. In a medical marijuana
case, it is paraphernalia;
Sales of marijuana were made to patients
who weren’t registered patients? No problem.
Remember, the issue is whether a purpose
was to deliver to a patient or for a patient’s
acquisition. The fact that the transaction was
not in compliance or that the recipient turns
out not to have been a patient is irrelevant:
the purposes were for a registered patient to
acquire marijuana.
In several cases, Rockind Law and I are
raising this argument. In the first case to
reach oral arguments, after I raised the
argument,!the judge seemed stunned at the
simplicity and clarity of it. At one point, he
smiled… My interpretation?
• Provided growing or acquisition advice
or sent out information advising patients
about where to acquire? In a heroin case, it is
evidence of conspiracy or accomplice liability.
In a marijuana case, it is paraphernalia;
Wow, this is brilliant and clear.
• Provided a patient with a place to acquire?
In an MDMA case, it is evidence of delivery
or accomplice lability. In a marijuana case,
paraphernalia; and,
Mr a Rockind is saying that the entire
dispensary was paraphernalia.
• Etc, ad nauseam.
In a dispensary case where people are
charged with the acts of others or being
in a conspiracy or on a criminal enterprise,
this argument is like the plague to the
state’s case. Where people did something
to “contribute”, eg, advertise, take cards
and check them, provide a facility where
marijuana is acquired, those acts cannot be
used as evidence. All were things actually
employed for purposes of a patient’s medical
use, is, acquisition.
36
In fact, the argument that people were
running dispensaries for profit or for the
purpose of making money no longer deprives
a person of immunity. The paraphernalia
section, 333.26425(g) says “for purposes
of.” There are no disqualifying purposes not
language, eg, “but not for”, or “excluding.” In
fact, not that it doesn’t even say “primary
purpose.” In short, one can have multiple
purposes one of which was “profit” but so
long as a purpose is for a patient’s medical
use the rule applies. This is how grow shops
and head shops are immunized…they sell to
make a profit not also to help a patient with
the medical use, eg, manufacture or use.
April 2016
We’ll see. I know this, the prosecution had
little to fire back with. At one point, all she
could say was:
Yes. I am. Hearing her make my argument was
music to my ears.
Remember, this may be the most important
argument in medical marijuana litigation over
the last several years. Stay tuned.

The 45th Annual HASH BASH
by Adam Brook
against using them, as they know they
can safely be purged out, but because
they are solvents and not natural.... But
they eat processed food...... ANYWAY
my point is you should keep reading
and learning as much as you can not
only to educate yourself but make sure
others are not being mis-educated.....
Remember REEFER MADNESS was miseducation that worked.....
So you should be reading this at the
45 Annual Ann Arbor HASH BASH....if
not you missed a good time.......
As I write this HASH BASH is 5 days
away. I have a surprise guest who I will
be announcing this afternoon... I think
him being at HASH BASH shows how
mainstream marijuana has become....
Yes I now expect the elected folks to
show up (they are looking for votes
and contributions), I expect the who's
who of “the movement” (most of them
have their own agendas, which is why
they are there, and that's what the
event is about), I expect my dear friend
John Sinclair.... but purely for personal
reasons as I was the one who invited
him in 2001.
He was not a part of an event that was
related to him and that shocked me....
I have even gotten to the point where
I expect the sun to come out at HIGH
noon on HASH BASH day.... what I never
expected is all the drama and silliness
I have seen in the last few years. The
reason I liked HASH BASH so much is it
brought everyone together for one thing,
to get high and say FUCK YOU to the
MAN....... OK maybe that's two things.....
I am very impressed with the App
that has been created for HASH BASH.
If you don't already have it, go to your
app store and type in HASH BASH
(how cool is that).... it will be live for 6
months following HASH BASH.....I would
suggest this....EVERYONE download it.
Let's help them get their numbers up.
Please, if you haven't signed the
two ballot initiatives, MiLEGALIZE or
ABROGATE, do so. They both deserve
your signatures.
I have to say that it saddens me that
this industry, which is in its infancy here
in Michigan, can't get behind making
better laws in the state....Yes, I know
40
There was no winner to the trivia
question last month......I will not reveal
the answer yet. Instead it will be a bonus
question in the future.... cause it's a
killer question and they are damn hard
to come up with.....
some have, but they are a small minority.
I would think there would be one huge
WEED UNION. Where everyone wanted
to join because there was something
for everyone.... Yes I know we won't all
agree with each other, that's OK... but
don't we ALL want this to move forward?
OK I get it, it’s about the money..... I
bet you all will make a lot more after
working together ... Since the laws are
GOING to change shouldn't we write
the new ones? I never understood
how we allow a bunch of people who
won't admit to any pot use to tell us
ANYTHING!
I have been the HOST of DETROIT
DAB WARZ competition at The OMS Dab
House for bit now. I have learned a ton
about Dabs..... Working with PSI Labs
has taught me a ton. I love the SNOPES
aspect to Dabs.....I must hear the bad
info 5 to 1 over the good.... Now some
of this is squares who will comment
that dabs are dangerous because I
“could blow up my house doing them”....
to which I ask, do you even know what
you just said? Can you explain it ? The
hysteria is funny to me..... then there's
the organic anti-solvent crew who aren’t
April 2016
So I decided to skip the trivia
this month...Instead I'll make you an
awesome deal.....Pay the postage and
I'll send a HASH BASH shirt ($20 value)
to the first 10 people who text FREE HB
SHIRT to 313-999-0329....
Still rock'n PERISCOPE.... It's a free app...
Get it and follow
ADAM L BROOK.... You won't be
disappointed.....
Questions, Comments or Complaints hit
me up............
Peace,

Spring has Sprung:
NOW LET’S ABROGATE
THE DENIAL OF FREEDOM!
by Daniel L. Price, Esq.
Can you smell it? It’s Spring and even though
we still get the occasional snow shower, you can
still smell the leaves, grass, flowers, yes… even the
weeds beginning to sprout up from the long winter
nap. St. Patrick’s Day is already passed and heck I
just realized that Hash Bash is only 9 days away.
But with Spring also comes more police patrols.
Indeed, from the accounts I heard, law enforcement
made a killing during Hash Bash last year. Arrests
and revenues were high, so to speak, for Ann Arbor
and the surrounding area. A medical marijuana
card may not always keep you from getting
ticketed or arrested. You may find yourself arrested
for possession even if the officer(s) know(s) you
have a medical marijuana card.
Although you cannot control the desire of
any given law enforcement agent to violate your
freedoms, you can control your own behavior when
it comes to ingesting medical marijuana. Here are
a few tips to help avoid getting a ticket, or worse,
arrested:
First, ingest your medicine in private. It’s
against the law to toke in a public place, period.
Many people have been arrested over the years
for ingesting their medicine in a parking lot. I
realize that the need for freedom
is strong, but there are better
ways to assert your freedom than
ingesting in the parking lot of a
dispensary. Take it home.
Second, do not ingest and
then get behind the wheel of a
motor vehicle. Although many
government funded studies from
around the world suggest that it
is not dangerous to ingest and
drive, it will still get you arrested
and likely convicted of driving
while impaired by drugs. And,
if you read last month’s article,
you will not want to rely on the
Michigan State Police Crime Labs
for any kind of legitimate test
results. So just don’t ingest and
drive, simple.

Third, if you are a caregiver, or grow your own
medicinal plants, make sure you always wash your
hands and put on clean clothes after handling
your plants. It is common for people who are
accustomed to the odor of marijuana to not even
realize they smell strongly of the plant. However,
a “strong odor” of marijuana is typically used to
search without a warrant and arrest people with a
medical marijuana card. It is really a simple thing
to make sure you don’t leave the house smelling
like you just rolled in the weeds, so to speak. It
could also save you thousands of dollars in legal
fees, and possibly from a needless conviction.
Fourth, edibles are NOT included in the
protections of the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act
(the “MMMA”). As a result, if you are driving and
you have edibles in your possession, you will be
prosecuted. Worse, let’s say you have one brownie
and 2 ounces of your favorite gorilla in your trunk.
You are pulled over and the officer claims to
smell a strong odor of marijuana, and so searches
your vehicle without a warrant. He/she finds the
brownie. Now you may be guilty of possessing an
amount of marijuana that could get you convicted
of one or more felonies. This is because the
brownie will void all the protections of the MMMA,
so you could be found guilty of felony possession,
and felony possession with the intent to distribute.
It is understood that it is all around better when
you ingest your medication in the form of edibles.
However, until the fight for freedom is won, don’t
possess edibles, it’s just not worth it.
One of the reasons I support the “Abrogate
Prohibition” petition that is going around is
because it’s the only one of its kind that actually
supports freedom without contradictions. Kudos
to Ben Horner for supporting and including the
petition in the MMM Report. The fact is, the
rest of the petitions, past and present, seek to
gain permission from government actors. While
“Abrogate Prohibition” seeks to force those
government actors to recognize mankind’s freedom
to grow and use a natural plant which provides
numerous benefits, medical and otherwise. At the
same time, it would deny government actors from
skimming off the top by taxing the plant, which is a
denial of the right to property and as such, a denial
of freedom.
I encourage all persons who wish to be free to
find the courage to sign the “Abrogate Prohibition”
petition, whether they be a medical marijuana
patient, caregiver, or never ingest at all. I say this
because when they vote for freedom for all, they
vote for their own freedom. Like I said last month,
freedom is not free. But the denial of your freedom
takes no action on your part, you need only keep
silent and do nothing.
Till next month, keep rolling on.

Sometimes the Best Thing the Government Can Do Is
Nothing At All
by Citizen Jay
My last article for the MMMR
was all about the federal law suit
brought against Colorado by its
neighbors Nebraska, Oklahoma,
and Kansas. As you’ll recall, the
Attorneys General of those states
decided to sue Colorado over
its enactment of Amendment
64, which constitutionally gave
its citizens the right to possess
and cultivate Cannabis. The
plaintiffs claimed that their
states were adversely impacted
by Colorado’s constitutional
amendment and argued that
52
Colorado’s law was pre-empted
by the Federal Controlled
Substances Act. And so they
asked Supreme Court of the
United States (SCOTUS) to force
Colorado to obey the Controlled
Substances Act.
As I write this now,
momentous news has just come
over the wire that the SCOTUS
has declined to review the case.
It’s really the best we could
have hoped for. To tell the truth
I was still quite worried even
after the White House asked the
Court not to take it. Had they
April 2016
taken the case, it could have
gone either way for Colorado.
More importantly, it could have
stymied any efforts on the part
of the Federal Government to
move forward with Cannabis
legalization—whether that be in
the form of reworking the DEA
Schedule or pushing more broad
legislation through Congress
(because I’ve given up all hope
of the Executive doing anything
about it). With the recent death
of Justice Scalia, who knows
how the Court may have ruled.
They may have drawn even, and
then what would we have done?
MMM Publications
As it stands, we dodged that
bullet. Now, Colorado is free to
continue on its merry Cannabis
way without the threat of losing
its regulatory framework at the
stroke of a pen. And the Federal
Government is likewise able
to continue its varied efforts
towards legalization. This
bodes well for other states too.
Sometimes the best thing the
government can do is nothing at
all….
Usually when that happens
it’s not such a good thing. Look
at Maryland, for example. They
passed their first Medical
Cannabis laws in 2003. Here it
is 2016 and we’re still waiting
for a workable plan. A “legal
defense” is not a Medical
Cannabis program. How are
patients supposed to get their
meds in the first place? The lack
of program means patients are
forced into the criminal market.
People are suffering, actually
dying, all because the legislators
have repeatedly refused to take
the responsibility to work out
the details. Instead, they’ve been
kicking the can down the road for
more than a decade. Or worse
yet, standing squarely in the way
of progress.
In Michigan hopes are high
for a 2016 ballot initiative to
legalize adult-use Cannabis.
Medical Cannabis has been
“legal” in Michigan since 2008.
But we haven’t seen any other
Cannabis related legislation
from Michigan since 2013, when
voters introduced Senate Bill
660 specifying that Cannabis
would be a schedule II controlled
substance if manufactured,
obtained, dispensed, or grown
in compliance with the Public
Health Code. Just what we all
want (please note sarcasm). The
recent raids in both northern
and western Michigan speak to
the need for more direction from
above. Could the lack of a strict
regimen in this case be holding
us back?
A “legal defense”
is not a Medical
Cannabis program.
How are patients
supposed to get
their meds in the
first place?
California is still trying to
move past its 1996 Cannabis
regulations. The last two efforts
by the Cannabis community
there have failed to convince
the majority of voters. There has
been a distinct lack of cohesion.
Battling propositions have so
far weakened their ability to get
any one of them passed (and
this has/is happening in other
states too—for example, Ohio).
But why has it been left up to
the populace all this time? Why
haven’t things moved forward
any other way? It’s been a long
time. Since California first took
up the torch almost half of the
states have passed some kind of
Cannabis legislation one way or
another. It seems they’ve been
left in the dust. We had such
high hopes.
View the mag online: mmmrmag.com
No dis intended, eh? Getting
government to move is hard. At
this point it’s the PUSH that still
so important. Remember, we’re
all part of a national MOVEMENT.
And as such, we’re each
responsible for helping to create
the MOMENTUM needed to make
our goals actually become reality.
It’s not just for you and me. It’s
for all of us everywhere now and
in the future. Get involved.
As we get further into our
watershed year we are seeing
absolutely fantastical things
happening in our governing
politick. It seems our political
parties may actually burst apart,
fueled by the pullings of extreme
positions from the center
outward, they might explode.
Despite all the circus-ry, this
Cannabis advocate finds himself
hopeful. The next elections
will bring a ton of people to the
polls. The spectacle that is the
Presidential race alone promises
to electrify the electorate. That’ll
be good for us as a movement in
general. The majority of polled
Americans now favor legalization
in some form. And they’re
coming to vote. Perhaps that will
provide the impetus for moving
our governing bodies forward.
As always, it starts with, “We the
People….”
53
A hippie and a stoner are out
for a walk. A pigeon flies by and
relieves himself on the hippie’s head.
“Gross!” says the hippie. “Get some
toilet paper.”
“What for?” says the stoner. “He
must be half-a-mile away by now.”
Kid to a pregnant girl at bus stop: “What are
you expecting?” The girl says, “A bus.”
The kid turns to his friend and says:
“Wow! I am 100% sure this chick
got screwed by a Transformer!”
A stoner rings up an airline. He
asks, "How long are your flights from
America to England?" The woman
on the other end of the phone says,
"Just a minute..." The stoner says,
"Thanks!" and hangs up the phone.
A stoner and a hippie are driving
down the road. The stoner driving
looks at her friend in the passenger
seat and asks her to see if her
blinker is working. So the hippie
looks out the window and says, ‘’Yes.
No. Yes. No.’’

CapricorN
Dec. 23 - Jan. 20
Try to remember that things are not always
as they seem. Never judge a book by it’s
cover. If people were to judge you based
solely on your appearance, they would
think you’re nothing but a disgusting slob
wearing blue jeans and a bad shirt.
ArieS
mar. 21 - apr. 20
Pay close attention to what you say and
what you do. Actions speak louder than
words, but you don’t do anything except
run your big loud mouth behind everyone’s
back.
Cancer
June 22 - July. 22
You have a businesslike attitude to life and
a knack for making money. In other words,
an unscrupulous bastard who would sell his
Mother’s kidneys to make a few extra bucks.
People generally detest you and they are
absolutely correct in their estimation of you.
Libra
Sept. 24 - Oct. 23
You are a pioneer type and think most
people are dickheads. You are quick to
reprimand, impatient and full of advice.
You do nothing but piss off everyone you
come in contact with. You are a prick.
AquariuS
Jan. 21 - Feb. 19
Many challenges lie ahead in the coming
weeks that may test your courage. It’s
important that you face your fears and
never back down from a challenge. So let’s
see you say that shit to my face you fucking
pussy.
TauruS
apr. 21 - may. 21
You need to realize that you can’t control
everything. Sometimes an accident can be
a blessing in disguise. Too bad blessings are
bullshit because there is no god.
LeO
July 23 - Aug. 21
You consider yourself a born leader. Others
think you are an idiot. Most Leos are
bullies. You are vain and cannot tolerate
criticism. Your arrogance is disgusting.
Leos are thieving bastards.
Scorpio
Oct. 24 - Nov. 22
You are the worst of the lot. You are shrewd
in business and cannot be trusted. You shall
achieve the pinnacle of success because of
your total lack of ethics. You are the perfect
son of a bitch. Most Scorpios are murdered.

Feb. 20 - mar. 20
You may find yourself in the position to
make new acquaintances. If you do, don’t
try so hard to get people to like you. You
don’t want to give anyone the impression
that you’re a likable person.
Gemini
may. 22 - June 21
Times are tough and they’re getting
tougher. Sometimes it might be a good idea
to quit while you’re ahead. In your case
though you should quit while you’re behind
because there’s not much that could be
done to improve your situation.
VirgO
Aug. 22 - Sept. 23
You are the logical type and hate disorder.
Your shitpicking attitude is sickening to
your friends and coworkers. You are cold
and unemotional and often fall asleep while
doing it.
SagittariuS
Nov. 23 - Dec. 22
The sky’s the limit, so get ahead and do all the crazy
things you always want to do. Of course, you won’t
enjoy any of it and all of your ambitions are likely to
end in failure and bitter disillusionment, but don’t
let that stop you. It will give you plenty more things
to brood ‘reflectively’ about.
