New Legislature "Raymond's Law" Hits Marijuana Offenders


New Legislature is being brought before the House and Senate that would compel Offenders of the Marijuana Act to inform their neighbors if they are holding.  Senator Treadwell  D. Col. had this to say:

"This Law signifies a change in awareness for the nation, we really feel like we are taking a proactive approach in the effort to solve the problem.  Never before has it been so easy to find a bag of pot in your locality."

Although the legislature ensures easy procurement of marijuana, it does not regulate the quality or price.   On this Treadwell says:

This law arose from a case in CA, where James Newell of Pasadena was angered to find out the man living just one floor above him was dealing a Schedule one drug, Marijuana.  Newell was unavailable for comment but his law said this:

"Here was James, sitting in the dark the whole time, and now we know that the perpatrator could have invited him up at any time to smoke, it's sad really."

"Millions of Americans love to be high," Treadwell said. "Unfortunately, their neighbors often keep them in the dark about what kind of shit is going around."

Treadwell and other proponents of the Law argued that the bill would result in increased domestic trade in consumer snack products and a heightened sense of community and well-being.

More powerful, perhaps, were the personal testimonials of hundreds of drug-drought victims, who stood before lawmakers to share their experiences with dope deprivation.

"As a parent, I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to finding weed," Minneapolis resident Kyle Berman said. "All my wife and I wanted to be able to do was get Tina and Tyler to bed, put on a movie, and smoke a joint. It wasn't until the police busted the guy across the street for growing marijuana that we realized how close we'd come to actually finding some pot. A whole set-up with lamps and everything was less than 50 feet from our living room. It sickens me to think about it."
