A Digest Of Issues: Why The Hell Not!; Issue: #70.; Press Release(s) (i) Pot: Decriminalize? On, the 14th of October, Mayoral Candidate (Vancouver, BC; 2002) (possibly Dr) Gölök Zoltán Leenderdt (St.) Franco (Assissi) Buday (Possibly MD) said that he opposes the decriminalization of pot because it's just an attempt at fining people and making sin tax cash cows out of people who have an amount on their person that could be argued as planted, which would lead to a trial on the police officer or officers, than lead to a trial of the pot smoker and eventually may become a catch 22 and an obvious technicality and burden of proof not met on either or at least the person charged with a "minor" possession. The "plantable amount" is automatically an opportunity to claim the drug was planted and is automatically reasonable doubt. Perhaps it could lead to blood testing, but that's up to debate, I mean who got the warrant and how to search the individual in the first place. As for Legalization? The pollen is poisonous and the stuff fumes up blocks and blocks and hurts other innocent people, like hell. The main issue at hand has many obvious presumption of guilt and sin tax based issues at hand. Why would the government fight what funds it? Even taxpayers have a break unless they deem their taxes outrageous. Then the government harasses them and makes them suffer. (ii) Correction. On a previous press release I mentioned COPE, the Dance Party, the NPA, The VIP, and might have forgotten the greens and Mary Jane party. On the credibility check.
