		<description><![CDATA[Senate Bill 6265 got a hearing yesterday. The bill is sponsored by Senator Jeanne Kohl-Welles of Seattle, a long time proponent of common sense cannabis law reform. Senate Bill 6265 would legalize nonprofit medical marijuana dispensaries, but kick the regulation aspect to the cities of Washington. If passed, the bill could clear up what has been a legal limbo for dispensaries in the state that are left alone in parts, and prosecuted in others. <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style" addthis:url='http://cannabisfantastic.com/2012/01/washington-dispensary-bill-addresses-i-502-concerns/' addthis:title='Washington Dispensary Bill Addresses I-502 Concerns' ><a class="addthis_button_facebook"></a><a class="addthis_button_twitter"></a><a class="addthis_button_stumbleupon"></a><a class="addthis_button_reddit"></a></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Darren Richardson was pulled over in his 2004 Black BMW 325i for what police said was them witnessing Mr. Richardson nearly cause a traffic accident after he narrowly avoided hitting another car. Police pulled him over, and according to police documents of the encounter, they say that Richardson began arguing with them immediately. The dispute continued between Richardson, two police officers at the scene, and Mr. Richardson’s passenger. In a matter of minutes, both men were in handcuffs while they waited for a K-9 unit to come check out the car since the officer on the scene reported the smell of raw marijuana coming from the vehicle.
