true – if they had really tolerated cannabis rather than the half-measures of “decriminalisation” those people (cops and farmer alike) would still be alive today.
I wonder if the USA have been leaning on Canada, claiming the drugs are crossing the border, and thats why this particular farmer was targeted – was this a joint RCMP/FBI/DEA cross-border job, with the threat of the farmer being tried in the USA rather then Canada?
Although I don’t think Canada extradites criminals if they face the death penalty; in this case it would be a long stretch in federal prison under US laws, then a return to Canada to serve the rest of the time (probably worse than death!)
I can’t otherwise understand why the farmer would take such extreme action – after all its not as if Canada has started up this cannabis production yesterday…
Auch wenn du am Abgrund stehst, und gar nichts mehr verstehst,
wachen Engel über dich, halten dich im Licht und lassen dich nie fallen.
