According to Agro in that same interview, his wife was told by a deputy this raid was 'to get the [state] legislature off their butts and make some rules' or words to that effect. Agro died of a heart attack one week after the raid. Someone (or their dog)may have died in the course of the SWAT style raid. On a sixty+ year old medical patient who was within his plant limit. Apparently the police in Lk. Orion think it's O.K. to make the point that they would like some clarity in the law by killing someone. I'm EQUALLY sure that Sol Agro would've liked some clarity in the law as well...he thought he was within the law, and free from the risk and a military invasion of his home. If there had been a clear pronouncement from Attourney General Holder and the Obama administration on MMJ, instead of meaningless argle-bargle, Sol Agro would probably be at home with his family today.

All have vested interests to contribute big money to the no campaign, which is tragic and unfortunate. That an elder statesman like Dennis Peron is lending false testimony to this campaign against the greatest anti-prohibition initiative put to voters in US history is a sad state of affairs. The real issue here is the fear these commercial exploiter growers have that their market will utterly dry up. At $12.50 an ounce for your own homegrown, who will pay their rip-off prices anymore? Almost no one, and this has them rightly panicked. Well, I say screw any greedy growers whose love of money is greater than their love of marijuana, and you should too by voting for THE CONTROL & TAX CANNABIS INITIATIVE this November Vote yes

If God Himself appeared and blessed this herb for all to use, I am afraid the cops here in Michigan would still be busting your doors in. Our police, regardless of the law, know what is good for us. Here in Michigan we are safer because our boys in blue protect us against any reefer abuse. They know the inherent danger of what would happen if someone were to grow even one more plant than they are authorized to grow. So grampa was just collateral damage but Michigan is a safer place now. Right? Yes, reefer madness is alive and well here in Michigan…not so Mr. Agro, I am sorry to say.

Too many ignorant, greedy, and/or scared politicians occupy the critical decision-making positions. For them to entertain change will require the drug war absurdity to affect them personally.
