Since this is about the US, the country literally was founded by people disregarding the laws because they were unjust. The law is the law but that's it. Break in a law isnt inherently immoral
- kelnos 9y agoNo, but just saying so doesn't make breaking this law somehow ok. You disagreeing with something doesn't make it immoral. Look, these people have been growing for a long time, illegally. I don't have a problem with the growing itself, but they've been making a mess of Mendocino County for years, and they're not exactly all nice people (violent crime rate up there is pretty high). Now we have a legal framework for growing, for actually doing it in a legal way. Sure, some of the new requirements will hurt. But overall we'll end up with a safer growing situation, and things will be done in a way that doesn't damage the land.
- boomboomsubban 9y ago>Now we have a legal framework for growing, for actually doing it in a legal way. No, they don't. Following that framework is admitting you are breaking a federal law. It bars you from being successful in businesses, make a lot of money and the feds have more reason to target you.
- lovich 9y agoTrue, and I agree that people doing these illegal grows in public land and threatening people are acting immorally. Like the other commenter said though, the framework is not there for legal marijuana production, it just removes one of the layers of illegality
