Speaking of sellouts

I just read this and my blood is boiling:

I just checked and this sell-out bozo really is in charge of the legal department of The Drug Policy Alliance. Ethan Nadelman, drop dead.

It appears the Drug Policy Alliance has just replaced Mark Emery as my public enemy Number 1.

You have to read the article to know why I'm so pissed, but he's praising a bill that will make it impossible for patients to get marijuana. They can't grow it themselves. And on and on and on.

As you know, Mark may be extradited to the U.S on the basis that he sold cannabis seeds - sales on which he paid tax to the Canadian government - sales which were 100% legal.

But because the DEAth exercised their sovereignty in Canada, or put another way, exercised their independance over the laws and sovereignty of Canada - they made the request for the extradition of Mark to the U.S, and the Canadian authorities decided it would be better to appease this external force of criminal enterprise and wide spread corruption. Rather than protecting one of their own citezens from what can only be described as 'abuse', the Canadian government rolled over even though technically Mark could have faced life imprisonment just for selling the seeds of a plant.
...

I can see the part about Emery & Co. screaming Imler was a narc when Imler was going to trial went right over your head. As did the part about when did Imler ever get the city council of Vancouver to do a photo opp with him.

If Canada doesn't like him, that's their problem, and his, not mine.

The U.S. movement has spent far too much time and money saving his butt and the butts of his friends. The U.S. Movement has its own fish to fry. We are in the heart of the beast deary...

And, sorry, I didn't read past the part I'd quoted.

What makes Emery more important than, oh Charles Lynch? Or scores of other people here in this country that need to be in the focus of the public and the movement RIGHT NOW.

FOR THE GOOD OF THE MOVEMENT.

For the good of the movement, RIGHT NOW, Charles Lynch deserves the stage, and if Emery gave a damn about the movement he would quit trying to upstage him.

And you see nothing "divisive" about Emery & Co. screaming Imler was a narc while he was going to trial?

I'm thinking Emery is an excellent example of what you're talking about - the division and degradeation of so many for the maintenance of a few. In fact, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Bye.

Does that mean you tried to get them to ban me for telling the truth about Emery?

Jane had a real beef with Rosenthal, Kubby, et. al.

And, yes, I don't think suing Bill Martin (was it Bill?) because he cancelled the check because he didn't get the clones from Rosenthal the check was for because the feds took them.

Wasn't that the way it went?

And that wasn't the only person he sued was it?
