ANOTHER STORY ON MEDICAL MARIJUANA

Re: 'Leave me the hell alone'

I am a fellow Kamloops resident with a licence from Health Canada to
possess marijuana, and having experienced my own harassment by Kamloops
RCMP concerning my medicine, I must say I am not surprised by their
actions against Mr. Anderson. Although my situation was not on the
magnitude of what was perpetrated against Carl Anderson, It still left me
feeling like a dirty criminal, instead of the upstanding citizen I try to
be.

My marijuana is shipped to me by a grower who is licensed by Health Canada
to grow it. A little over a month ago, my package was turned into the
police by somebody believing it was an illegal shipment. I was made to
wait four days, with several trips and many hours spent down at the police
station before they returned my medicine.

What really upsets me about the whole thing is the absolutely ridiculous
amount of time and money the RCMP spend on ridiculous activities like
these.

There was no reason for the Kamloops RCMP to raid Mr. Anderson's house.
They should be ashamed of themselves and owe Mr. Anderson an apology.
