Kubby was convicted and sentenced to 120 days of "house" arrest, instead he choose to flee to Canada to avoid this sentence. He was "booted" out of Canada and is now being a martyr for the potheads of America. Read Proposition 215 and the legislation that has been passed since. There is nowhere in this or any other "law" that requires a doctor's prescription, it only requires that a physician recommend. Verbal is accepted to allow a person to get a state-issued users card. Check out how many doctors will give a written prescription for pot and what pharmacy will fill that prescription - zero, nada, none. How can a man conceive children and expose them to heavy pot smoking? Pot, like cigarettes, causes lung damage along with a deadening of senses! Kubby needs a psychiatrist, not pot.
