Hey Guys sorry I've been out of the loop for a long time but I get these emails from reality sandwich and usually I have been too busy to read them except for this one that talked of an arrested ayahuascero named Taita Juan who is being held on possesion and intention to distribute schedule 1 substance. I don't know if this has already been posted and probably someone on here knows more about it than I do but it seems pretty damn pertinent to the CEL. Heres the link http://www.freetaitajuan.org/If this has been addressed before sorry for bringing it up and I'm not sure what we can do for this guy but I guess discussion of his situation is at least important. Peace and Love Brothers and Sisters. Anything posted by this member should be treated as the hypothetical ideas of a crazed turtle/man and should not be taken seriously, ever.Quote:The cost of sanity, in this society, is a certain level of alienation.

Its great for him and others who may one day be in similar situation! It also sets a great precedent. But there is still a lot of work to do to ensure that others have the right to use plant based substances whether for religious or personal purposes.

And it's good that not only was he released, he was released fairly quickly. No holding for years during litigation.
