Personal Stash Limits Raised In Vancouver

A provincial court judge has thrown out charges against a man stopped by Delta police last year and found to have four garbage bags in the backseat full of marijuana plants.
The judge ruled that police had seriously violated the man’s constitutional rights because there were insufficient ground to search the man’s car, even though police could smell recently burned marijuana coming from the vehicle.
Great news for resident pot smokers (and large volume dealers)… not only don’t you have to worry about the smoke billowing out the windows as you drive, but the police can’t touch your 10-20 lbs. of personal stash sitting in the open in your back seat.
Makes you wonder which way the judge leans, and what it’ll take to have the justice system give police the tools to do their job.
The shooting are a result of the non-enforcement of the laws. What’s the worst that can happen if you happen to gun down a competitor?
Here’s a another example:
A provincial court judge in Abbotsford has thrown out weapons and drug charges against one of three Bacon brothers after questioning a search warrant. Jonathan Bacon, Godwin Cheng and Rayleene Burton were arrested in 2005 after police seized crack cocaine, marijuana, handguns, silencers and cash in an Abbotsford home.
So what does one need to do to get thrown in jail for drugs in Vancouver?
I guess when the government gives you free needles, injection hotels, free crack pipes, you get a free pass for anything drug related.
When the inmates have taken over this west coast asylum, you’ll know how it began.
