two leading cannabis campaigners arrested

Marc Emery and Dana Beal are now two more victims of the drug war they have campaigned so hard to end.
Is it just coincidence that within the space of just two days, two of the leading organisers of the annual Global Marijuana March, first Marc Emery (28th Oct) and then (30th Oct) Dana Beal (above, photo New York Times) have been arrested and are now both behind bars, at the mercy of the cruel American 'justice' system?
The extradition of Marc Emery to the American Gulag had been expected despite a majority of Canadians being against it and a long campaign, but Dana Deal's arrest in Nebraska, allegedly in possession of 150 lbs of marijuana, is a double wammie for the global movement against marijuana prohibition.
Dana Beal is founder and main coordinator of the annual 'Global Marijuana March' which this year held simultaneous marches in nearly 200 cities worldwide, campaigning for medical marijuana and an end to marijuana prohibition. He has also devoted his considerable energies towards developing anti addiction treatments, particularly using the natural drug Ibogaine.
Now Marc Emery and Dana Beal are two more victims of the drug war they have campaigned so hard to end. They are not criminals, they are political prisoners.
• Dana and two others have been charged with "possession with the intent to deliver and having no drug tax stamp." Possession of marijuana for personal use has been decriminalised under Nebraska State laws, but they still allow draconian penalties for the sale and distribution of the popular herb.
• A Free Dana Beal Facebook site and a Free Dana Beal Blog have been started to support Dana and raise funds for his defence.

May God bless you and all in Wales forever and ever amen.
This is a letter for you to enjoy and forward to all you can.
I will blind copy your email address.
Senors
Gracias for the great conversation outside of the Hilton Hotel.
It was so nice to see others from Espana that I can talk to about my travels there with Peter Joyce thanks to Lady Diana and the graciousness of the British Crown letting Ms Spencer aka Angel Tear to Peter and I plus two others.
I enjoyed making a short movie clip about AI (Artificial Intelligence) and having fun talking about Carl Sagan, a professor I had while auditing two astronomy courses at Cornell when I was in tenth grade. It was so exciting to talk about the resurgence of a true space program and also Richard's plan for the moon anyhow.
Everyone knows world-wide if you want to see true genius and thought process and ingenuity and go tiviness then you make sure you follow all about Sir Richard Branson and Albert Arnold Gore Jr and whizkid1983_1986
I am tired of George Nory at Coast to Coast Radio getting people excited
about science and then continuing the cover up of BayPoint School.
To my new amigos from Espana click on the two links and praise God forever and tell all in Espana.
Contact all the glorious churches ASAP
Life is so glorious when you understand Jesus Christ and his true teachings, not the ones man makes up.
