This is spooky. The DEA is apparently "investigating" state legislators in Montana who helped write the state's medical marijuana law as being part of a marijuana trafficking "conspiracy."
This is for real. They are going around interrogating medical marijuana providers about what they know about specific legislators.
Like one legislator said, "this is McCarthyism all over again."
Part of the basis for this is a federal judge in Montana recently ruled that federal marijuana laws trump state medical marijuana laws. The once-booming (and granted, the system was being abused) medical marijuana industry in the state is virtually dead.
But now, it sounds like the feds are going after people who wrote the law to begin with.
It almost makes you want to vote for Ron Paul! (Well, not really).
