Big hitter fights for medical marijuana

  • Jesus: not the guy who's gone to court in Montana

The best headline of the day, from KRTV in Great Falls, Montana:

Christ files lawsuit over Montana medical marijuana law

True, it's referring to a different Christ than the one who first comes to mind—this would be Jason Christ, a businessman who created a "cannabis caravan" to register patients for medical marijuana.

Too bad. Something tells me Jason doesn't have quite as much clout as the other, better-known JC. Or this one, for that matter.

Mr. Christ could use some pull. As in California, Michigan, and many other states, Montana is mired in a messy and expensive legal quagmire over its medical marijuana laws.

In fact, among those looking for guidance on the issue is a Montana Priest—that is, Jason Priest, a Republican state senator from Red Lodge.

Illinois lawmakers tend to be much more firm in their convictions: most don't have any faith in medical marijuana laws. State rep Jim Sacia, for instance, considers them "an abomination."

"Too bad. Something tells me Jason doesn't have quite as much clout as the other, better-known JC. Or this one, for that matter." IT TOOK A TRIAL, AN ACQUITTAL AND AN UNJUST EXECUTION FOR JESUS CHRIST TO WIN POPULAR APPEAL. The injustice goes on - and everyone who participates in fighting it is a HERO!!!
