Washington Police and Prosecutors Winding Down Marijuana Possession Cases

Prosecutors won't charge marijuana possession cases anymore, starting December 6th:
Ian Goodhew, deputy chief of staff for the King County Prosecuting Attorney, says his office is trying to figure out how if they will charge the marijuana possession cases are pending. "We haven't figured out how we will handle all of those cases," he says. But assuming the possession portion of the law is not federally challenged -- and no credible lawyer thinks the possession portion can be -- Goodhew says that in future cases, "we cannot charge someone under state statute."
...and police won't make possession arrests:
Sergeant Sean Whitcomb, a spokesman for the Seattle Police Department, says this: "For us, the law has changed, and people can expect no enforcement for possession."
Or to put it another way: Yesterday Really Happened.
fucking WOW. How cool is THAT.
Very!
Berlin Wall Revisited
This is like the night was watching the TV and there was people with hammers on the Berlin Wall smashing it down.
It was just too awesome to believe.
This is more than historic.
Federal and international laws have both been challenged here and found redundant.
Anyone can legalize now.
Over the next year or two dozens of countries may legalize.
War is Over!
May peace reign.
Why don't they stop prosecuting now?
What about all the people in jail waiting to be let out? I mean, what? Don't they care?
Mark Emery out!
Wouldn't it be cool if they released Mark Emery, since he was taken into custody in Washington. Now that really would be something ...
Yeah, too bad he was
Yeah, too bad he was extradited to the US by the feds. Sick bastards.
For those who don't know, Marc Emery was given a sentence of five years in federal prison and was subjected to solitary confinement for three weeks. All for selling seeds.
I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of him.
