Digital Technologies vs. Truth Suppression

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/portallogo1.gif

“Doubt undermines legitimacy. Without legitimacy, an establishment must substitute power for authority, external government for self-government. The cost of forcing people to behave is too great for any government. Without widespread self-government to enforce its demands, an establishment becomes just another competing interest group.  This is why the World Wide Web is the biggest threat in history to every government-supported special-interest group. They all know this. There is hardly anything they can do about it. They rail against conspiracy theories, but the mantra is not working any more.”

Oakland, California Raises Then Shortens Yellows for Revenue

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/abanks.jpg

“Redflex Traffic Systems, an Australian company, began issuing automated citations on Oakland streets in 2008. The city has been so focused on revenue that the police department officials who manage the contract with Redflex became irate when the transportation staff decided to add one second to the duration of yellow signal timing at the photo enforced intersections.  The total number of violations immediately went down 56 percent with the longer yellows. This infuriated Oakland Police Lieutenant Anthony Banks Sr, who was in charge of managing the program vendor.”

Swiss agree on 100-franc fines for pot smokers

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/20aade83851aeafb6aa4340332f19bac3525d0c4b626a51e53fe44cadabe8b0d1.jpg

“Switzerland’s parliament ruled on Thursday to fine adult cannabis users 100 francs ($107) if caught with small quantities of the drug.  Switzerland’s largest party, the right-wing populist Swiss People’s Party, said it would not push for a referendum on the issue despite consistently arguing for higher fines for pot smokers, newspaper 20 Minuten reports.  Thursday’s vote marks the end of a protracted disagreement between the two houses of parliament.”

Jury Nullifies Felony in Cannabis Grower’s Trial

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/flagrastamarijuana1.jpg

“An NH jury has acquitted a man facing a felony for growing cannabis! It’s our first real-life case of jury nullification here in NH and the jury nullification law hasn’t even gone into effect yet. Kudos to the judge for reading a fair and easy-to-understand jury instruction about nullifying as an option! Also, it probably helped that a free stater was on the jury!  If you are an self-described anarchist or agorist and you are not registered to vote, you need to remedy that now. Being on the voter’s rolls means you could be chosen as a juror.”

Marijuana Compound Fights Cancer; Human Trials Next

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/potshopimage.jpg

“Turns out a component of cannabis fights cancer, according to research.  Scientists at California Pacific Medical Center found that cannabidiol, or CBD, has the ability to ‘turn off’ the DNA that causes ‘breast and other types of cancers’ to metastasize, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.  ‘If this plant were discovered in the Amazon today, scientists would be falling all over each other to be the first to bring it to market,’ said Dr. Donald Abrams, chief of oncology at the University of California San Francisco, which has also found science behind marijuana’s efficacy.”

Minnesota farmer cleared by jury in raw milk case

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/1milk0921121.jpg

“A soft-spoken Minnesota farmer was cleared of violating state laws for distributing raw milk Thursday, a verdict advocates for such foods called their first major legal victory. After a three-day trial and more than four hours of deliberation, a Hennepin County jury found Alvin Schlangen not guilty of three misdemeanor counts of selling unpasteurized milk, operating without a food license and handling adulterated or misbranded food.”
