Hi all.

I started a petition intended for Attorney General Troy King in Alabama. My husband and I are being prosecuted as "drug traffickers" due to a plant that grew in our backyard. There was never any intent to sell, it's only based on the weight of the plant. It was huge!

The local DA's office has already spent more than 200 hours working on our case and we haven't even gone to trial yet. This is a blatant waste of taxpayers money in that there was ZERO impact on the community. No harm was done, and no harm was GOING to be done.

Please help send a message that we will no longer tolerate the wasting of precious resources going after peaceful people of God. They are actually trying to put us in prison for 10 years! Can you imagine?

Thanks in advance for signing. Our next court date is April 22, when our motion to dismiss will be heard. Pray for victory as we remain strong in Christ.

Reverend David Cook of the Nevada THC Ministry is facing drug charges for using his sacrament. We must, once and for all, put an end to religious discrimination in this country. It doesn't matter if you believe in his religion or not. All that matters is that we stand together to end this persecution for not having a "government approved" religion.

Today, we have the opportunity to change the way people think and the way our government treats Cannabis users. The Constitutions of the United Nations, the United States and the State of Nevada are quite clear on our religious rights and freedom, however the courts and law enforcement are still sadly ignorant.

Please sign the petition and leave a comment here.
