peter sorrel vermont state's attorney on channel 5 wptz news last night said as follows "i am in complete support of marijuana decriminilization here in vermont for possession of small amounts of marijuana,however vermonters should be aware that the federal goverment still see's it as a crime and should act accordingly, There are bigger problems in this stae to worry about than marijuana possesion of small amounts. Liken the charge to a traffic ticket. I cant stand here and tell vermonters there state prisons are filled with marijuan possesion cases when they shouldnt be." Thankgod i voted for this cat. I can understand someone being cautious(NOT PARANOID)if there garden isnt LEGAL, I know before medical cannabis came along alot of folks were guerilla growers. Common sense should play a huge roll in this though, If your growing a garden thats a guaranteed felony in your area dont be throwing pics and shit into the unknown not knowing! Jail sucks! , but i fucken love this plant and there's very little i wont sacrifice to keep it in my life in one way or another. So that means i have to take calculated risks, because i refuse to take advantage of my local medicinal laws and try to shop for a "compassionate doctor", even though ive been told i qualify for pain management, i will not give in, in hopes that it can finnaly be decriminalized everywhere before i die. I would love to think im part of the solution not the problem but i know im not. I will continue to help and spread love for the plant tho.
