March For Jailed Marijuana Activist

HONOLULU -- Hilo resident Roger Christie remains behind bars at the federal detention center. He faces charges of drug trafficking stemming from his activities with his cannabis ministry. Federal agents arrested Christie and 13 others last month accused of running a drug distribution ring. Trial had been set for Sept. 8 has now been postponed until April. A crowd of about 200 gathered at Mooheau bandstand in Hilo Wednesday and marched on the federal building to protest the court’s decision to deny bail for Christie.

“I just saw last week where a drunk driver killed a woman in Kona. He was in the hospital and was released without bail without anything. They say Roger is a danger to the community so he can’t be released,” Robert Petricci said.

Christie and his church was the subject of a two year probe by federal agents. The 61-year-old Big Island resident claimed religious freedom even though the prosecutors say religious freedom does not apply to drug cases.

Christie claims he administers the Cannabis sacrament and that money that agents seized were derived from his church ministry.

Following his arrest this summer the government’s position was that Christie’s activities are a violation of the federal controlled substance act.

The crowd of Christie supporters marched through Hilo to the federal building to protest the decision to keep Christie behind bars.

“I don't believe that’s constitutional. I think everyone in Hawaii should be concerned,“ Petricci said.

Ill be out there soon!

Thanks for that post festivus!

As far as the roof-less greenhouse...the plan is for it to be on a decent sized property, fenced in and a living bamboo forest as a boarder combined with a 8' chain fence. I was thinking having a basic edged foundation put in place(10mx10mx3m), digging down 7' to till it up and remove about 2' so plants can grow 11' tall without reaching over the glass walls...but I'm big into land race Sativas so they will definitely be growing above the walls lol

I'd say more but anymore in an open forum and i'd be giving away too much information...one day we'll be able to freely talk
