We have to keep pressing this hot button issue. It is real and it is true. So eventually they have to follow their own laws.

So my uncle had court he got 5 years. He has already served 10 months so the will be out in less tHan 4 years
That's really great for the circumstances. I've only got about 160 going, so I'd get the 5 year minimum mandatory in my state. Nice to know I can go up to 999 with the same risk, I'm getting into a new house with more room. Can't wait!

google families of.mandatory minimums and it can be changed to less time like 2 years I think Ifeel my state gets on board then his lawyer says he would have only gotten 2 year instead of 5

I just looked at the FAMM site, seems like they're doing good work. Here's my state's cannabis laws, looks like I'd get a minimum mandatory sentence of 3 years, but they could tack on selling and possession and get me for a lot more if they wanted (plus fine me and seize all my shit). Nice to see that the MM is not 5, as I thought. I had been thinking of a way to keep it under 99, but in my state it would have to be under 49, as 50-200 is the same penalty. Interestingly, under 5 plants is no MM, and only up to a year if the judge misses his coffee that morning...

Thy way his case worked is having had 1900 plants various sizes 65lbs packaged and guns. 1 was loaded within 20ft of plants and his bed. The guns were an enhancement. If everyone gets on board even in mm states the fed can still prosecute you. Of we all would join together then we will he benefiting all of us especially if we or anyone got caught. Just cause the state says it legal the feds still say no so help yourself and email your senators to help pass this bill for drug offenses

my uncle should have gotten 15+ plus years. But Because The Feds Have A Mandatory Minimum 5 The
Years the judge can determine what your are charged with but it has to be punished by 5 years minimum no matter 1 plant or 5000 plants

Our entire penal system pretty much has been discredited as monstrously moronic yet we still operate under legal fictions that sell people into slavery and create division between the untouchables (those who have a crim record) and the perfect people (who are dwindling as tech comes online).

My god that fucking dipshit with alzheimers shut down our entire mental hospital system to make all our chronically mentally ill (I include substance abuse in MI category), prey for the corporate penal system and street predators!

Wasn't this the shit our forefathers were escaping from? Confiscation of land and property, egregiously bad, non-representational and contradictory laws, and enforcement based upon socioeconomic class status?

Have you read Silverglate Three Felonies a Day. We are being sold into slavery and the worst part is we seem to be so complacent about it.

Ok I'm stopping here and getting some of my 15 week Kosher out of the fridge. I need to calm down it appears LOL
