WHAT IS THE KUBBYS' CRIME?

Who did Steve or Michele Kubby rape, rob or murder? Who did they lie to,
cheat or blackmail?

It seems to me that ignorant, opportunistic politicians have raped the
Kubbys, robbed them of their civil rights and caused other sick and dying
patients to suffer needlessly by classifying some medicines as illegal
narcotics despite the voters' approval of Proposition 215 to allow use of
marijuana as medicine in some cases.

It is the district attorneys, judges and other politicians who lie, cheat
and blackmail. When the Kubbys go to court, will the judge tell the jury
that as jurors they have the right to decide if the law is being justly
applied? I doubt it. This is what keeps "the people" powerless even when it
comes to laws that they voted for and passed.
