[December]. I'm horrified that our government would spend so much time and money to ruthlessly pursue and harass Renee Boje for merely helping with the illustrations for a book called How to Grow Medical Marijuana. She's obviously guilty of nothing more than being good-hearted and artistically talented. I'm equally angry at drug czar Barry R. McCaffrey, who expressed contempt for the will of the voters in states that have legalized marijuana for medical use - including Boje's home state of California. Does he, or anyone, really believe that extraditing her from Canada and imprisoning her for 10 years will make America safer, keep drugs away from children or help to destroy the black market for illegal drugs?
