I'm writing this message on behalf of a good friend of mine. His name is Rich but most of you know him as "potroast" he has been a senior member of rollitup since the beginning. There is no doubt in my mind that his contributions to this site have helped make it the great place it is today. Without people like him this would be nothing but another message board of the blind leading the blind.
He's helped thousands of people. But now he needs our help! Rich is a licenced medical marijuana caregiver. A few weeks ago a San diego police task force "claiming federal juristiction" decided to bust down rich's door in full riot gear at 7am. They stole all his Medicine, money, and equiptment and took him to jail.
San diego is a key battleground in the fight for decriminalization of medical marijuana. Conservative city leaders refuse to recognize the state laws for safe access to medical mariuana. Rich was in full compliance with state law and provided safe access to scores of patients, most of whom are older and have no alternative means of getting the medication they need.
Thankfully rich is out of jail right now. But him, his patients, and the fate of medical marijuana in california are still in jepordy. I would like to propose a fund raiser on rollitup from which the procedes would go to his legal aid. I see this as a landmark case for the fate of medical marijuana. Caregivers like rich are a vital part of the medical marijuana community and we cannot afford to lose them!
I think of the countless number of crops that have been aided or saved by the free advise from this generous veteran. If every person that was aided by his advise were to just donate $1 I think it would provide a much needed boost for him in his time of need.
I plead with you to make it happen rollitup. You of all people know the impact that senior members like potroast have on this site. Their contrabutions make this site the great place it is today.
He's done so much. Please do what you can to help him!
