Medical Marijuana is Illegal in Hawaii March 2010

For the record, a couple of months ago the Maui Time, a small
independent partisan weekly, had a cover story about the issue
of legalizing drugs. That week, I did a Google search under
my full name and found my full name listed with this edition
of the Maui Time even if the editorial content of Coconut
Wireless made no mention of me.

This wire fraud was reported to the Honolulu Advertiser and
the Maui Time paper. This false link to the Maui Time on a
Google search engine does not suggest criminality on the part
of their Editor Jacob Schafer.

What this does, however, is increase false public perception
that I am in support of legalizing drugs. As with my complaint
to the Federal Trade Commission 2009,my cell number was used for
over a year by Credit Card companies, Auto Insurance companies
and residents looking for Brian Murphy, a Paia resident that
was arrested for illegal drugs while having promoted himself
as a medical marijuana dispensary.

In Spring 2009, I had person-to-person contact with the
disbarred attorney who claims to have represented Mr. Murphy.
Burt Gould and I had contact because I was caring for his
former spouse's disabled sister. Mr. Gould is someone who
is proud to say he can break any contract/agreement at any
time and readily shares that he represented psychologists
who were charged for sexual abuse in their practices.

This week's Maui Time mentions SB 2213, the bill that would
allow dispensaries in Maui County to establish fees and taxes
for dispensing medical marijuana. This bill attempts to add
corrections to the previous medical marijuana legislation
passed in Hawaii a few years ago.

Governor Lingle will veto this bill, not only because there
is inadequate criminal justice mechanisms for enforcement,
but also because Lingle is a Republican, not a Democrat. We
should see if she knows how to say "no" to drugs herself.

I do not support any type of legalization of drugs while
drug terrorists and addicts pervade daily life with
their sense of arrogance that we should all inhale in the
same public room, space or restaurant while drugs are
obtained by criminal and corrupt networks.

During the early 90's, while I worked in San Francisco as
a Critical Care RN, a co-worker who was HIV+ qualified for
a pass to the Cannabis Club. The Cannabis Club provided an
array of choices displayed in glass jars and sweets with
pot for those who were members.

I think this place was shut down due to illegal traffick-
ing activities, perhaps of other illicit substances in
recent years. It may have been on ABC News in 2006-2007
with a major Green Harvest in Humbolt and Mendocino
Counties in Norther California.

Dems are saying revenue and micro-enterprises will serve
the public's interest and support those who are in need
of this drug for psychological or physical treatment. If
you take a look at supporters in the Hawaii Democratic
Party, you may understand that they don't want to admit
that our law enforcement and criminal justice systems
have reached a point of crisis. Soft on crime, eh?

At this time, medical marijuana is illegal in Hawaii.
I know some who dispute that an "herb" could be illegal
The current law, passed 10 years ago, is uneforceable,
making the federal law intact given security threats
that have emerged with drug violence at the border
with Mexico, and due to links with al Quaeda.


Some are discriminating. They say that anyone who is
not an herb" smoking friend has some type of problem.
These are dangerous statements. Psychoactive states
are not equivalent to spiritual knowledge. Psycho-
active states in strict ritualistic settings have
provided the access to knowledge outside our waking
consciousness, but these experiences are limited to
those who practice rigorous discipline in a specific
context. They were not addicts looking for escape.

Besides, some of us just don't need drugs to live the
sacred in every minute everyday of the year. haha.
