I am truly outraged at the extradition of Marc Emery. This harmless, Canadian man is charged under American law for the selling of Marijuana seeds. He has been sentenced 5 years in American prison. In Canada (again, where Marc is from) he would have to pay a $200 fine. I don’t care what anyone says, Marc Emery has no reason to be jailed for 5 years in America. We should be spending the money and jail space for the real criminals. What about the people buying fire arms, or the hard-core drug users who can cause serious injury to American citizens? There is (should be) no question that Marc should be charged under Canadian laws, considering his citizenship. I hate to call myself an American citizen if this is how the government is going to work. It’s bad enough already, so why make people hate it more?
I have already donated money and have gotten the word out. Everyone must make others aware of America’s wrongdoing. This is not so much of a situation regarding legalization of marijuana but the rights of Canadian and American citizens and the proper “punishment” of those who break the law.
Watch this: it is great information presented by activist David Malmo-Levine on the Marc Emery situation and facts about marijuana.
