Mike Bouchard Raids MJ Houses, & Shops
Bouchard, must have his panties in a bunch, from losing the primary. He took it out on medical marajuana growers and shops. Ferndale just gave several more permits out, just the other day. Wish I new what prompted this action. Med. MJ is legal. the voteres in the whole State, have decreed this.
Opportunistic crooks use Indian land to grow MJ
Now, I think Medical MJ is the issue at the forefront of this thread. Illegal drugs are another thing. People who use other people's land to grow illegal MJ are just crooks, not only are they growing an illegal crop, they are stealing the use of land from the rightful owners.
I do think MJ ought to be legal, but since it isn't, the whole crook thing comes into play. It should not be so with LEGAL medical marijuana, just like with other legal controlled substances.
Here is another story about a bunch of Spanish-surnamed people getting caught this month farming MJ on Menominee land and National forest land in Wisconsin. This was probably a bumper year, too.

RE: Indian tribes growing marijuana as a sovereign right. It is not a sovereign right to grow an illegal crop, unless such is part of the reserved treaty rights. Tribes are subject to federal laws, so DEA would be the enforcement agency.
