Lake County News | California

Thank you for defeating Measure D by a land slide. Now we can get down to real business and allow medicinal users to have their medicine and small time growers for profit to find another county or state to grow in. The air should soon be of better quality and the rape of the watershed should stop.

From Greg Cornish and others who worked on behalf of No on Measure D.

Thank you for the explanation.

And remember.

There are some banned users, I looked yesterday and there are six or .0006 percent of the registered readers.

Attorney Ron Green was banned months ago when he posted a very mean spirited, poorly thought out comment that named individuals and opened them up to harm. He then went on the radio and attempted to pillary LCN for blocking him but was castigated by the show's host who agreed that we had taken appropriate action. Green followed that with a near constant stream of abusive emails and threats to the point that we had his emails to Elizabeth embargoed at the server so she wouldn't be subjected to his abusiveness. In spite of Mr. Green's claims, his letter was not received along with every other email he sent since we put him into the spam filter.

Attorney Green's nonsense was coincident with a time when LCN was under daily, politically motivated cyber attacks which began during the last election cycle that initially threatened the existence of this news publication and ultimately resulted in a major upgrade and redesign you see today. These attacks continue and a side effect appears to be randomly blocking of posting. I have found that my own ability to post was blocked at several times as well. That issue is easily solved and I'm pleased to say the site has not been taken offline recently by those criminals.

Smurf recently posted a highly vicious comment degrading both a female candidate and a local female editor, his ability to post comments has been temporarily suspended.

Calling people names is not the way to get things done and we are under no obligation to entertain that behavior. LCN is not and will not be a platform for abuse. We generally take a very tolerant approach to the comments particularly when compared to the two other major news websites in Lake but when people really go out of their way to be abusive jerks we take action.

We know what you are trying to stir up. LOL

Your baloon has been deflated. You go on relentlessly attacking people, spinning their replies to fit your agenda and now that all of your misinformation has been thwarted, you want to take your toys and go home. GOOD LUCK!

Every person I have talked to on the subject is voting YES ON MEASURE D - Because it is the right thing to do.

No offense buddy, but you got it all wrong again. You love hearing the sound of your own voice and you fail at following along in a conversation I'm not going to explain things to you anymore. Ten times is enough. The people I wanted to reach got the message. You have nothing between your ears to absorb knowledge. Seriously, take notes next time we debate. See you at the Polls. Good luck.

in John's defense - I don't know about Ron Green being ousted. But it appears that hackers are at work trying to destroy LCNs integrity. That is why I kept getting message ("your name is blocked") while trying to reply.

Ok - smart guy(greg) - show me where it trumps local law or ordinances. It does not over write ANY laws, in place, it can't. This is your biggest misinfo of all. I really think you need to sit down with a law dog, to get the gist of what Measure D is all about, setting limits and being safe.
If you are referring to 72.A.6 Conflicts with other provisions of law - It only trumps laws, ordinances that are regarding growing Medical Cannabis, or that would change the original intent of Measure D, say like the BOS has tried to do. A Measure is NOT going to over write laws in existance regard other issues.

So - Greg - your Erosion Control argument is BOGUS - your stating that Measure D over writes State, county or local laws is BOGUS - What else you got.

That was a pretty desperate ad today. How you claim to address all those concerns you made up with a fairy tail document that never mentions any of them is beyond me.

Dwain submitted a letter for publication accusing the opponents of Measure D of 'lies' which has not been published as it falls far short of establishing any lies.

I was called last night by the "deputies association" or some name that claimed that Measure D would allow marijuana grows and SALES in residential areas.

Californians have been allowed to grown marijuana in residential areas for over FIFTEEN YEARS. It is STATE LAW. and NO ordinance can change that.

Measure D says NOTHING about sales of marijuana. Selling marijuana is a STATE crime in the state of California and will remain so WHETHER OR NOT Measure D passes.

The claim that Measure D allows SALES of marijuana from residential homes IS AN OUTRIGHT LIE.


Yet, John Jensen will most enthusiastically print an an article from a half brain that conflates teenage vandalism with the writing of county ordinances as if that has some important meaning.

Do you have on here Buddy? ;-)

Already voted Yes on D-the No on D campaign is obnoxious.

[urlhttp://www.vom.com/graphico/Lake-County-Marijuana-Cultivation-Initiative.pdf]Link to Measure D

When the No on D folks ask you to read Measure D, we hope you do and provide links.

Measure D states "72A.1 (c) The purpose of this article is to regulate by land use provisions in the zoning ordinance the number of Medical Marijuana plants that can be grown outdoors in the various zoning districts for individual use, and also collectively, in accordance with California Law. This article does not restrict or affect the right of qualified patients and the primary care givers to cultivate medical marijuana indoors"

It's all about setting limits and not at all about overriding any state laws that are in place.

Must I lead you by the nose everywhere? You're worse than a little kid. I never mention state law. I'm talking local codes and zoning laws. jessh!

There are 6 states voting for full legalization this year. Not only that, but Ron Paul and Barney Franks is putting legislation through congress this year to take Cannabis off of Schedule 1 drug listing and leave it up to the states to create their laws re:cannabis. So it could go either way - state by state or feds taking it off schedule 1 list. With in a few years it will be fully 100% legal country wide, AGAIN.

Cannabis is the greatest plant in the world as far as its diversity in medicine and industry. Non-toxic biodegradable plastic is just one of the great things it can do. It helped create this country. When this country was founded - if you wanted property you HAD to grow cannabis - it was the law - it was so important that they wanted everyone growing it. What happened - special interest (like dow chemicals) bought off greedy congressmen and the senators to demonize this great plant.
Thomas Jefferson has said his favorite passtime was to sit on his back porch and smoke "hemp". It would not have surprised me if he smoked a little "hemp" before writing the Declaration of Independance. Have you read it word for word.(?)

to add the Drug Dealers and illegal greedy growers to your list.

I think your list might add up to under 200 people, wait, lets add the drug dealers and Illegal growers, okay, now maybe 240 people.

There were over 2000 signatures to create this measure. Good luck!

Measure D states "72A.1 (c) The purpose of this article is to regulate by land use provisions in the zoning ordinance the number of Medical Marijuana plants that can be grown outdoors in the various zoning districts for individual use, and also collectively, in accordance with California Law.

It's all about setting limits and not at all about overriding any state laws that are in place.

Greg, I am sorry that you are confused about this MeasureD. smilies/shocked.gif Prop 215 has already passed - 15 years ago. That gives Medical Cannabis patients the right to grow there own Medicine. They can grow 6 plants (flowering) per Recommendation on all parcels listed in Measure D. The "loophole" in Prop. 215 is that - if a person gathered enough Recommendations - they can grow 100's on their property (6 plants per Rec.) LEGALLY. That is right now. What Measure D does is adds a maximum of plants per the size of ones property. 1/4 acre no more than 12 - 1/2 acre no more than 24 - 5 acres no more than 66 - 7 acres or more 84 MAXIMUM. Right now a person can grow as many plants as they want to, providing they have the Recs to accommidate them.

I am not calling you a liar - I think that you have been misinformed or are confused. or maybe Mr. Brown is using you for his dupe

The supervisor's Ordinance.

I think the People of California will deal with CA 215 later.

While disputing the mis-information that Greg Cornish has been spouting ("your name has been blocked"). Like his run-away erosion control problems (not an issue) Measure D does not over-ride state law, especially Erosion problems (big fines), it CAN'T because a Measure is not going to override laws already in place, state or locally unless specifically stated. If you see improper growing methods - REPORT IT to the proper authorities, sheriff, State water board, Fish & game, etc.

This needs to be dealt with locally as Measure D is trying to over ride local code and make them exempt from local regulation as repeatedly reported by me and picked up by the Press Democrat endorsed and printed.

This Measure is for setting limits -right now a person can grow over 1000 plants on any given parcel - this measure stops that and limits it to 84 and only if you have 7 acres or more. There are several 1/4 acre parcels in my area with over 99 plants - they pack as many plants as they fit on their property. Talk about hazards

.

This Measure has nothing to do with setting limits. This measure says it set limits at the top of the document. then makes growers exempt from all local laws and codes in the following vague gibberish which I have repeatedly pointed out in the Measure D document's own language..

I have already voted for Measure D (absentee) and everyone I have talked to about this is also VOTING YES FOR MESASURE D. Between Rob Brown's personel vendetta and Greg's mis-informations - people have seen thru the fog (smoke)of deceit.
I guess we will find out on Tuesday - I foresee a victory for YES ON MEASURE D.

You have the Loveless Group, an underground subversive movement that brags of spies in the law enforcement and judicial systems and the support of the Green Valley marijuana Growers

We have.
Deputy Sheriff's Association
Lake County Farm Bureau
Lake County Chamber of Commerce
California Women for Agriculture
Sierra Club - Lake Group
Kelseyville Business Association
Buckingham Home Owners Association
Clear Lake Riviera Home Owners Association
Lake County Board of Supervisors
Lakeport City Council
Clearlake City Council
Lake County Board of Education
And the Press Democrat

Good luck on Tuesday I hope We, the Good Guys win..

Until Cannabis and Hemp are fully legalized - greed will always show his hand. Look at the end of Alcohol prohibition, crime was rampant during the transition to legalization.

You, Rob Brown and I are in complete agreement here. But you can't do it in a state by state fashion or you'll end up in the chaos we have now. It needs to be done thoroughly with forethought and federally based with licensing and taxing plans in place before implementation. It doesn't need to be legal only for medicine either. Everyone over 18 or 21 years of age should be able to use it relationally in their own home. It would solve the medicinal farce.

You get to avoid the law.

if Measure D passes - the Regulations won't go into play until the year 2013. If Measure D does not pass - there will be no regulations in place until at least 2014 or 2015. Brown's poser group won't be able to get anything done until at least next year, if then. SO, do we really want to have NO growing regulations for 2 more years. I DON'T! That is also why I voted YES ON MEASURE D.

From Herb Gura aka the law show. Unless he's daft he knows that Phil and others comment regularly on other LCN stories. He's just trying to perpetuate the fairy tale that they are banned from commenting. The truth is they are probably just tired of the mental gymnastics they had to perform to try to maintain some semblance of credibility while supporting liars.

Unfortunately dwain has no such filter so we still have to read his drivel.

Are Ron Green, Phil Murphy and others locked out of contributing to these comments? I have been told that they are and I no longer see any posts from them published here.
I am curious as to whether it is true or not that individuals are "banned" from posting here.

From people who wish to remain anonymous who are living in fear from medicinal growers growing no more than 12 plants. Their growers are perimeter guarding with guns, intimidation through violent acts, fire threats. Exactly what we thought would happen.

Pretty much like I said Frog would say, "Lies Lies Lies," with no substantiation. Wouldn't that be a lie? Cats out of the bag Frog. For A real Republican stance read The Democrat! Wait that doesn't sound right. Anyway the Press Democrat urges you to


VOTE NO ON D!

Certain posts suggest we have refused to print letters. LCN does not refuse letters as a policy. Irresponsible letters that make unsupportable claims are not published without clarification and support. To date, LCN is not in receipt of any letters from Ron Green this campaign season.

As to a 'Republican agenda' held by LCN, we would refer you to local Republican stalwarts who have criticized us for what they perceive as our 'liberal' posture. People both left and right regularly point out articles they suggest is right or left leaning coverage. That would appear to put us squarely in the middle.

Dwain submitted a letter for publication accusing the opponents of Measure D of 'lies' which has not been published as it falls far short of establishing any lies.

He claims that people's concerns that "measure D promises doomsday if it passes, increased crime, gangs, home invasions, etc" are lies.

The problem is that all of this and more happened in Mendocino according to the 2010 Mendocino Grand Jury report when cultivation was made 25 plants across the board in the year 2000. Disastrous consequences and years of turmoil and quagmire were the reward there.

"Measure G passed in 2000. The measure states: “…remove the fear of prosecution and the stigma of criminality from people who harmlessly cultivate and/or use marijuana for personal medical or recreational purposes”. Measure G also set a limit of 25 plants per medical marijuana patient. The growing of marijuana in Mendocino County subsequently became a major industry and a magnet for marijuana growers, who moved here from other states and countries to make quick profits.

This quasi-legalization has caused residents to become inflamed with a rise in crimes such as home invasion, armed robbery, fires, and murder. Declines in property values and increases in water use, hazardous waste, odor, ecological damage, misuse of public lands, and health related issues are also of significant concern to the public. Additional GJ concerns are the effects that the marijuana culture has on children and on employment opportunities in Mendocino County."

Well, now that you mention it


---------------------------------------------------

When I was a child I was taught that lying was a sin. I was also taught that the "ends justify the means" is a false excuse and really that "it is not whether you win or lose, it is how you play the game."

Remember the Iraq war, when enough Americans were convinced that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, that President Bush could then visit mass destruction on Iraq? Did we learn anything? I sure hope we learned that believing lies can end up with disastrous consequences and years of turmoil and quagmire.

This election season sees another campaign of lies and distortion with supervisor Rob Brown leading the charge against Measure D, the ballot initiative that limits the number of medical marijuana plants that can be grown, based upon the parcel size and zoning.

That is ALL Measure D does, and would result in LESS marijuana being grown in Lake County than under current state guidelines. It does NOT allow marijuana to be grown where it is not already legal, and it does not make ANY reference to the selling of marijuana (another dispensary ordinance will be required for that.)

There are 58 counties in California. Of those that have enacted marijuana cultivation ordinances, Measure D would make Lake County one of the more RESTRICTIVE counties. For example, in Sonoma County a marijuana patient may grow up to 30 plants in a residential district and may possess up to three POUNDS of processed marijuana. Other counties ordinances either include greater number of allowable plants than under Measure D, or square footage of garden that may be allocated. For example, in Humboldt County, marijuana patients are allowed up to 300 square feet of growing space (or 10 x 30 feet, enough to grow a great many plants.)

You've seen the Sample Ballot where the argument against Measure D promises doomsday if it passes, increased crime, gangs, home invasions, etc. I was half expecting the claim that voting for Measure D would grow hair on the palms of your hands!

Seriously, though, where, in all the other counties in California that more lenient law for growing marijuana, have any of these dire predictions come true? And where is the evidence? Well there is none, because the claims made by Rob Brown and his committee are false, absolutely false. In fact, they are outright lies. This is extremely shameful on Mr. Brown's part because he is entrusted with the ability to make fair land use decisions for Lake County. If Mr. Brown had his way, most marijuana patients would have to BUY their drug from large scale growers (check the previous ordinance that was overthrown by the people.)

When confronted with these lies, the argument is always one of free speech, something that is sacred to Americans. Yet you are not free to yell "FIRE!" in a crowded theater. Why should elected politicians be allowed to yell "Doomsday!" on an important issue that affects a large number of Californians? It is just as immoral and disgusting.

Lastly, I don't know about you, but I resent the government telling me what I can do or cannot do in my bedroom, what I can keep or cannot keep in my medicine chest or refrigerator, or what flowers and herbs I can grow or cannot grow in my home garden. Remember the concept of LIBERTY? Where are the TRUE Republicans when you need them?

I urge every Lake County voter to compare the arguments against Measure D with the ACTUAL measure itself. I am sure you will find Measure D reasonable, easy to understand, and fair for everyone involved.

I know I will be voting against Rob Brown and for Measure D because I love Lake County and want Lake County to join the rest of California and the 21st Century, put this issue behind us, and take a stand against lying in public by elected officials.

In Tuesday's primary election, The Press Democrat recommends a no vote on Measure D in Lake County.

I just copyied what HE said in the other article! >> Assemblyman Wesley Chesbro (D-North Coast), who represents Lake County in the Assembly, spoke in support of a bill on Thursday and was among the 41 Assemblymembers who voted for it. He also is a coauthor of the bill.

“I support this bill because it would establish a statewide regulatory system that would remove ambiguities between state law, federal law and local regulations,” Chesbro said in a statement on the Floor of the Assembly today when Ammiano presented the bill.

“Many counties have assembled their own regulations, but the inconsistencies in those regulations put patients and dispensary owners at a disadvantage,” Chesbro said. “Good actors trying to follow state law and local regulations have been penalized for their best efforts to follow the law.”>>Chesbro does not support this measure D as f250jbh makes it sound like.

We think alike.

But you can't let the bees get to content or they'll lose their natural instincts. Once in a while you have to go up and kick the nest just to listen to em buzz and wonder what just happened. Word is he bees are all made at each other now because of how this went down and are stinging each other. It was nice to kick the nest this morning.

Thanks Greg for the offense on D.
I see that it is making the Frog hopping mad. I can just imagine smurf foaming at the mouth when he writes his defense of the drug dealers employment act postings.
The drug dealers must be so happy to see the yes on D people doing the work for them.
Chesbro does not support this measure D as f250jbh makes it sound like.
Saying that, I am for medical marijuana. Just not this farce of a bill.

The state already screwed this up enough.

I think the state should repeal SB420 and turn over other local control to counties.

Although it wouldn't surprise me if Greg destroyed this sign himself just for the photo op. Vote YES on measure D.

To be fair to you, I should inform you gently that I can't jump fences and wont be doing it in the future because I'm a quadriplegic. I think the signs would get our cause further, by standing rather than broken and tipped over.

Has their own REPUBLICAN agenda - a lot of times blocking people's pro Measure D responses.

Greg, keep it up, because you alone will push people to vote YES ON MEASURE D. - thanks for your help

Yes, indeed, Marz. With the lamest excuses I seen in a long time for not printing it. Mandy Feder said she would have been happy to put in the Record-Bee, but it was past deadline for political submissions.

Ron Green's letter was also refused by LCN, but printed in the Record-Bee.

John Jensen thinks he is the arbiter of truth, when really he is a plain old Soviet-style censor. He doesn't know the ethics of journalism.

Frog did you write one that was refused?

Too bad Lake County News won't print any letters in FAVOR of Measure D.

REALLY?????? This sounds more like juvenile vandalism than anything else. Have you actually seen these "proponents" destroying property, or is this accusation only a fabrication in your mind? Unless you have proof, you need to quit publicly pointing your finger . I suppose if my mailbox were knocked down, I should blame UPS or FedEx?
