Delavan, Illinois – This week, Tim McGraw, CEO of the marijuana firm Revolution Enterprises, paid for hotel rooms to house the victims of a tornado that passed through Illinois. The tornado damaged over 50 homes, with nearly a dozen completely destroyed, according to the town’s mayor Liz Skinner. Luckily, no one was killed in the tornado, which reached speeds of over 120 miles per hour and traveled over a mile through the town, causing millions of dollars in damage. Revolution Enterprises was recently established in Delavan, and has not even had the opportunity to open yet. The business just started growing plants and is expected to open as soon as October. According to the Chicago Tribune, the marijuana company’s 75,000-square-foot facility in Delavan escaped damage, said company spokesman Bradley Vallerius. The tornado hit soon after the company started growing cannabis under lights inside its locked, environment-controlled facility. When the executives at Revolution Enterprises realized that the displaced families would be thrown together in a shelter, they decided to donate their personal money to get the families private hotel rooms. “The alternative was cots set up at the American Legion Hall by Red Cross,” Skinner told the Chicago Tribune. Earlier this month we reported that marijuana businesses in the state of Colorado are donating large sums of money to have stretches of Denver highways cleaned up. There is a stark difference in those who cultivate marijuana once it is legal versus when it is illegal. Prohibition creates crime, leads to recidivism, and creates a school to prison pipeline for poor people. However, when it’s legal, it creates jobs, freedom, medicine, and kindness. Are you ready to end the war on drugs? We are.

Bless him. The man is to be praised & commended! Si vis pacem, para bellum
Awwwww. So sweet! Does that mean they'll be selling the marijuana at cost? Or, like every other marijuana business, will they be selling at or above street prices of $300 per ounce? They're not paying for the hotel rooms -- medical marijuana patients are through inflated prices.
Which group do you represent? In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Where's the picture of the "compassionate" medical marijuana grower with two bags of money?
He earned his LEGALLY, unlike the three crooks pictured in the image above and is using it to do good in his community. You can't honestly say the same thing about cops, bankers and drug cartels. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Baloney. It's against federal law. And state legislators should be arrested for sedition.
Tough shit. Residents of the state have wisely decided that it should be legal. And state legislators should be arrested for sedition. You are certifiably insane. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much I sure as hell didn't. "And state legislators should be arrested for sedition." "In law, sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that is deemed by the legal authority to tend toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority." The shoe fits. I say they wear it.
Too bad. You are free to take up residence in another state where the draconian laws agains a plant are more to your liking. "In law, sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that is deemed by the legal authority to tend toward insurrection against the established order. They ended prohibition of a plant. In your book that's sedition? Like I said - insane. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much In my book? No, according to the law. The legislators violated their oath of office to uphold the U.S.Constitution by passing a state law contrary to federal law.
The insanity is that you see that as a bad thing. And furthermore, where was the constitutional amendment outlawing marijuana in the first place? You know what? Don't bother - you're such a predictable statist. Not wasting any more time with a totalitarian like you. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Live victims or dead victims?

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.
