Harrelson planted four hemp seeds in 1996, knowing he would be arrested, so he could challenge a Kentucky law outlawing possession of any part of the cannabis plant. Through three different courts, Harrelson has argued the statute is unconstitutional because it doesn't distinguish between marijuana and hemp, which contains only minute amounts of the substance that makes marijuana smokers high, tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. The state's high court ruled Thursday that there's no difference between the two. - --- MAP posted-by: Doc-Hawk
