Anonymous Launches Operation Cannabis 420

The Legion of Lulz is wading into America's newly reignited Weed War and building a two-front opposition to marijuana prohibition. On one hand, the collective is organizing marches and demonstrations around the world on October 1st. And, on the other, in classic Anon fashion, the group is also collecting personal information on those it refers to as "narco-warriors" to later release.

Greetings from Anonymous and Team Vendetta, As many are aware, Operation Cannabis 420 is a grass roots effort to bring all who use cannabis together for the purpose of legalization. Our efforts have been largely successful in terms of raising awareness and getting the word out. Our video and press releases for Operation Cannabis 420 - Phase 1 have reached countless numbers of people thanks to the internet and the pro-cannabis media. The support we have garnered for this operation is better than we could have dreamed. Now, we would like to welcome you all to Operation Cannabis 420 - Phase 2! In this phase of the operation we will be focusing on two objectives: 1) Organizing several worldwide marches for cannabis legalization, the first of which is scheduled for October 1st (some of you may live in countries where the 1st falls on a Monday and might need to march a day sooner) and 2) Bringing to the forefront the "narco-warriors" (as they have come to be known). These are primarily the police unions, the private prison contractors, big pharmaceutical companies, the alcohol and tobacco industries, the corporate lobbyists for these organizations and the politicians who accept payoffs to legislate in their favor. These are the people who have a financial stake in keeping cannabis illegal, and are willing to spread lies, incarcerate cannabis users and ruin people's lives. No more. We are calling them out and will not rest day or night until they end their unjust war on cannabis users. This is a wake up call. Every single person who uses cannabis and every single person who supports our right to do so must take a stand now. We have too many people languishing in jail for marijuana "offenses". We have too many people who are still ignorant to the facts of this miracle drug. It has been shown that THC can actually kill brain cancer cells, and also slow the rate of regeneration. It's been proven that cannabis is extremely beneficial to cancer patients who undergo chemotherapy. These are just some of the benefits we are being denied because of the sleazy activity of a greedy minority. Join us as we venture to put a stop to this once and for all. Organize an October 1st march for cannabis in your city/town. Talk to everyone. Make people aware. This fight could be won by simple math alone. We have far greater numbers. It's time to put them to use. Sincerely,

Team Vendetta

Not entirely surprisingly, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected claims from MMJ advocates that weed's medicinal use is protected by the ADA. This case was brought before the court after a lower decision to ban dispensaries in two Southern California cities. The basic gist is that, as always, a state's laws are subservient to Federal regulation, regardless of other circumstances. As judge Raymond Fisher wrote in his ruling:

We recognize that the plaintiffs are gravely ill, and that their request for ADA relief implicates not only their right to live comfortably, but also their basic human dignity. Congress has made clear, however, that the ADA defines 'illegal drug use' by reference to federal, rather than state, law, and federal law does not authorize the plaintiffs' medical marijuana use. We therefore necessarily conclude that the plaintiffs' medical marijuana use is not protected by the ADA.


Great, so MMJ reform truly is dependent on Congressional action. Don't throw away your private dealer's number just yet—this is probably going to take a while. [San Diego Reader via @weedbusts - Image: The AP]
