Rooted in the high mountains of the Sierras, Tim Ziegler, medical cannabis collective operator of the Casa Collective and freedom fighter of Susanville, California gets ready for cannabis harvest season. Tim gave Ajnag the honor to film and photograph his garden before being pulled. My good friend and I cruised from Los Angeles to San Francisco, trekking through Lassen State Forest and finally arriving in Susanville, also known as prison town USA. There are two correctional facilities in this town of 13,000, where the number of inmates outnumbers the cities non-inmate population.

Proposition 215 (Compassionate Use Act of 1996), the California ballot initiative that allowed for seriously ill patients with qualifying conditions, to possess and cultivate medical cannabis for personal medical use turned 13 today.  Proposition 215 was the first state medical marijuana law to pass in the United States. It was cultivated by Dennis Peron, a San Francisco cannabis activist, after his lover, Adam West, died from AIDS.  Peron along with Anna Boyce, Valerie Corral (WAMM, Dale Gieringer (CA NORML), William Panzer, Scott Imler, and psychiatrist Tod H. Mikuriya drafted the inner workings of the state-wide voter initiative.

13 Years later, there are more than 1000 dispensing medical cannabis facilities, 1000s of growers, and a booming medical marijuana industry in California that has now influenced 12 other states in joining the Golden State in its progressive cannabis laws.

Oaksterdam University's own Executive Chancellor; Dale Clare was a panelist on Fox Business. She does a great job on answering the questions thrown at her... especially the "miss-truths". Pay attention at 3:30 when the Doctor "agrees" that the most harmful effect is due to "smoke". He also admits that he doesn't want to say "addicted"... Great video.
