[Article] Federal court tells dea to stop harassing medical mj providers

Excerpt:

In a scathing decision, a federal court in California has ruled that the Drug Enforcement Administration's interpretation of a recent medical marijuana bill "defies language and logic," "tortures the plain meaning of the statute" and is "at odds with fundamental notions of the rule of law." The ruling could have a broad impact on the DEA's ability to prosecute federal medical marijuana cases going forward.

DEA needs to be shut down, and hopefully Bernie will do just that.

The big thing that really irks me about the DEA raids is that its become the DEA's ATM. Pardon me if this is a little tinfoil, but I wouldnt be surprised if the DEA lets a store get nice and fat then raids it and seizes all its assets and money. Cha ching! How the hell is that remotely legal?

As for bernie - ill prob vote for him but I dont expect any change. The house and senate need to change in lock step with other branches for anything to happen. Otherwise it just ends in a stalemate.
