http://cannabisculture.com/articles/4466.html It seems that every day I begin to hate my government more and more. America if definately becoming the world police and I hate it as much as all the people in other countries hate it.
And this time he's in really deep shit. He's being persecuted by the wonderful United States government. And we all know how much the United States government loves pot smokers. Also all that bought seeds from him beware, the United States government is now in controll of all his records including reciepts and everything on the B.C. Marijuana Party computers.
Damn dude, that's fuckin' horrible. I honestly can't say I know who he is, but the fact that someone got busted blows. Hope everything works out for the dude...
I've heard that seed banks (Marc included) destroy all records once seeds are shipped. But that's besides the point. I wonder how most Canadians feel about their gov't sucking the US dea's dick? I'd be pissed even if I wasn't pro-pot. For several years now, the US gov't (dea w/jr's blessing) has been targeting high-profile activists, like Tommy Chong and Ed Rosenthal. Now Marc, the most famous activist in Canada. Bastards. I hope this backfires on them.
I sure fucking hope they destroy their records like they claim... I have spoken with Marc on the phone before, and he is an extremely well spoken, nice guy. This is ridiculous. Without a doubt, no is the time when everyone who smokes pot stands up and makes their voice known. I am an american, and I want cannabis legalized. What can we do people?
http://www.canada.com/toronto/video/GN050729dea.html Here's video of the DEA bastards discussing the charges. Also, if you know anyone with a grow operation that ordered some of his seeds alert them now, they are currently being traced back to grow operations in the U.S. and Canada and many busts will follow.
no one in canada buys seeds from him except for stupid stoners growing like 10 plants i dont know if that link says it or not, but the DEA also made the RCMP raid "Blunt brothers" and "amsterdam cafe" both in downtown vancouver 2 days ago, i guess to find the seeds and shit yada yada i'm getting quite upset now in canada, there is a tonne of shit going against the Legalization of pot in vancouver now with that stupid Tunnel being found and all this shit now. Imo, marc emery is an idiot though, there are alot better things he can do to make his marjiuana party known than getting arrested constantly and smoking pot in public trying to prove somthing, like fuck he was on the news one time and he was like "ppl who smoke pot are actually MUCH BETTER drivers because they are more concentrated on the road and drive slower"..... yea..ok marc.
This shit pisses me off i hate america ( i am american) im embarresed to be one they go into other countrys and think they own them they arrest innocent people and feed the media lies so that the american people will hate the innocent people they arrest
Dont sweat the small things,the DEA isnt gonna bother with small time growers which makes up 99% of his customers.Most experienced growers wont waste there time with him as he has pissed alot of people off.
meangreen is right. Even if they find records (all major seed banks say they destroy all records once seeds are shipped), the dea doesn't have the resources to track down thousands of customers, most of who have small personal gardens. The big commercial pot growers grow from clones. The intent is to scare people like you and me. And to keep us quiet. They have sent a message. If you're well-known, pro-pot, and fight unjust laws, they'll fuck with you.
Good riddance to the idiot, Marc Emery is a fucking loser. I'm glad he is going to prison. Do you guys have any idea what a Douche bag this guy is? You are all worried about the US knowing addresses of people that bought seeds? MARC EMERY HIMSELF THREATENED TO GIVE OUT ADDRESSES OF PEOPLE WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT HIS COMPANY. He is a scammer, a thief, etc etc etc . He is setting the movement back years, not only that but he is getting RICH off prohibition. Fuck him. He does not deserve the sympathy of anyone in this forum, don't give him any. Being pro-marijuana doesn't mean shit in my book, he is an asshole. He finally gets what's coming to him!
I didnt say I liked the guy, he's definately a dumbass/asshole but I posted this thread because it was big news and is going to cause quite a stir, which it has. The only thing that he ran that I liked was Pot T.V., I loved watching their contests. Oh what I'd give to test over 50 strains for free. *mouth waters*
http://vancouver.cbc.ca/regional/servlet/View?filename=bc_marijuana-emery20050802 Marc has been granted bail. Hopefully he is smart enough not to get arrested for the same shit for at least a year.
