Increased Acceptance of Marijuana Use Not Helping the NJ Weedman
Ed Forchion remains embroiled in legal troubles precipitated by the feds
October marked the 75th anniversary of the first federal law criminalizing marijuana. In November, voters in Colorado and Washington legalized recreational use of the drug, joining 32 states and municipalities that embrace marijuana's medicinal value or effectively ignore those who possess it in perfect health.
One of the nation's most patriotic potheads, Ed Forchion, wanted to celebrate the Election Day victories, but the doors to his Los Angeles medical marijuana dispensary were locked. The infamous N.J. Weedman is again out of business after receiving another cease-and-desist from the U.S. Department of Justice.
