Oregon Allots $25M To Combat Illicit Cannabis Grows - High Times

Lawmakers in Oregon have passed legislation to address the state's burgeoning illicit cannabis cultivation industry, allotting $25 million to help law enforcement and community organizations fight illegal cannabis growing operations.

Oregon voters legalized recreational marijuana and authorized regulated cannabis production and sales in 2014. Since then, illegal cultivation operations have popped up in droves, particularly in Klamath, Jackson, and Josephine Counties in the southern portion of the state. State Sen. Jeff Golden, who worked to get the bill added to the agenda for a one-day legislative special session last week, said that some rural areas of Oregon are "military-weapons zones, like the ones we usually associate with failed states."

Golden said that many of the illegal cultivation operations are run by criminal cartels that are guilty of human trafficking, labor abuses, intimidation of local residents and theft of water during a persistent drought.

"Illegal cannabis operations in southern Oregon have been using our limited water supply, abusing local workers, threatening neighbors and negatively impacting businesses run by legal marijuana growers," Golden added.

The measure, Senate Bill 893, was passed by Oregon state lawmakers on December 13 and signed into law by Gov. Kate Brown the following day. The new law establishes a $25 million "Illegal Marijuana Market Enforcement Grant Program" to assist local police, sheriff's departments and other organizations address the illegal cannabis cultivation in their communities, including $5 million earmarked for the enforcement of water rights. Local law enforcement agencies that receive grants from the program will be required to work with community-based groups to address labor trafficking. 

Earlier this year, Golden and state Reps. Pam Marsh and Lily Morgan wrote to a letter to the governor calling for help to fight illegal cannabis cultivation in Oregon's Rogue Valley.

"The damaging impacts, including human trafficking of a labor force in conditions approaching slavery, severe aggravation of the drought through massive and systematic water theft, long-term damage to agricultural lands from various polluting practices, and the financial ruin of licensed growers whose compliance obligations make competition impossible are hard to overstate," they wrote.

Is It Hemp or Cannabis?

Much of the illicit cannabis cultivation is occurring on farms that are ostensibly growing hemp, which was legalized at the federal level with the 2018 Farm Bill and is subject to far less stringent regulations than cannabis. The Oregon Health Authority and the Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission recently reported that nearly half of the registered hemp farms inspected by the state are actually growing cannabis. About 25 percent of the hemp operations refused entry to inspectors, according to state agencies.

Jackson County Sheriff Nathan Sickler told lawmakers the cartels "have a business model: Put up more cannabis illegal grows than law enforcement can ever get. They know we're going to get some, but they know we can't get it all."

A southern Oregon farmer told the Associated Press that a creek he used to irrigate his crops has run dry due because illegal cannabis grows have stolen the water. He believes that the state does not have enough inspectors to ensure that farms are actually growing hemp and not cannabis. He also blames landowners who sell or lease property to shady operators.

"If somebody walks onto your property with a suitcase with $100,000 in $20 bills, you kind of know they're not on the up and up," the unidentified farmer said. "And if you take that money and allow them to do something on your land, you should probably anticipate that they're there to break the law."

Local Official Declare State of Emergency

In October, Jackson County officials declared a state of emergency over the illegal cannabis cultivation operations, calling on Brown, state Senate President Peter Courtney, and Oregon House of Representatives Speaker Tina Kotek for help.

"Jackson County strongly requests your assistance to address this emergency," members of the county Board of Commissioners wrote in a letter to state leaders.

The commissioners called for funding, manpower and state National Guard troops to help deal with the problem of illegal marijuana cultivation in the county. Members of the board said that law enforcement, local code compliance officers, and state cannabis regulators have been overburdened by the illicit activity and warned of an "imminent threat to the public health and safety of our citizens from the illegal production of cannabis in our county."

Passed by the legislature as an emergency measure, Senate Bill 893 goes into effect immediately. Morgan told reporters bills planned for the 2022 legislative session will further address the issue.

Residents and law enforcement officers welcomed the funding provided by the legislation, but predicted that $25 million will not be enough to control the problem of illicit cannabis production in Oregon.

"It will help," said Josephine County Sheriff Dave Daniel. "But the issue is metastasizing statewide."

'A Giant Middle Finger to the Entire System': Trans Anarchist Satanist Runs for Sheriff - Snopes.com

Voting in the 2020 U.S. Election may be over, but the misinformation keeps on ticking. Never stop fact-checking. Follow our post-election coverage here.

It's not the first time Aria DiMezzo has run to be sheriff of Cheshire County, New Hampshire. But it is the first time she's made national news for it.

DiMezzo isn't your typical candidate for sheriff. Her campaign motto is "F— the police." A transgender woman, she describes herself as a "shemale," a term considered offensive to many in the transgender community, but one which she considers more efficient for communication purposes (fewer words to say, she reasoned). She also describes herself as a libertarian anarchist and a satanist.

And to top it all off, after 4,000 voters cast ballots for her in the primary on Sept. 8, DiMezzo is running as a Republican, opposing Democratic incumbent Eli Rivera.

The story of the unexpected Republican candidate running for sheriff on a "F— the police" platform went national — then international — after it was picked up by Fox News.

As is often the case with viral stories, readers asked Snopes to verify the facts, and we confirmed with DiMezzo that her run for Cheshire County Sheriff is serious — and she is running to win.

We reached out to Rivera, her opponent, for comment but didn't get a response in time for publication. Holly Shulman, spokesperson for the New Hampshire Democratic Party, said in an email, "Sheriff Rivera is doing an outstanding job and we fully expect that the voters of Cheshire County will continue to support him."

We reached out to the New Hampshire Republican Party and the Republican party of Cheshire County for comment on DiMezzo's campaign and platform, but didn't get a response in time for publication.

DiMezzo said the fact that she ran unopposed in the primary election and will now be on the general election ticket as a Republican in November 2020 points to something else. She believes it reveals many people are likely blindly voting for Republicans or Democrats without knowing anything about the actual candidates.

She's faced backlash, which she attributes to the fact that she's the embodiment of an anti-Republican platform running as a Republican. But she faults voters for failing to find out anything about her before voting for her.

"I'm not an easy person to miss," DiMezzo said. "I'm 6 feet tall. I carry a pistol. I'm trans and I have bright red hair. How did all of those people not know who I am? How did all those people go into a voting booth and vote for someone who they knew nothing about? I was never secretive about who and what I am."

Indeed, DiMezzo's views are clearly displayed on her campaign website, where she shares several criticisms of law enforcement, political parties, and the federal government.

DiMezzo doesn't have any law enforcement experience. ("I have no experience whatsoever committing aggression against non-violent people," as she puts it.) Her current occupation is hosting a talk radio show called "Free Talk Live."

As one might expect, DiMezzo's views on how she would run the sheriff's department are unconventional. The New Hampshire Union Leader reported DiMezzo wouldn't enforce laws associated with what she describes as victimless crimes. She is "opposed to the war on drugs, and does not want to enforce any crimes she claims are victimless, which include drug crimes, sex work, immigration violations, and even speeding violations."

After her story went viral, vandals spray-painted a picture of a penis and a homophobic slur on her car. She didn't call the police to file a hate crime and vandalism report — doing so would have been useless, she said, and in her view, the role of the police is to "police the police."

DiMezzo told the Mindful Skeptics podcast that if she's elected sheriff, Cheshire County deputies would have three choices: hang out in the station, go home, or go out and monitor interactions between police and civilians. 

"If you see a cop pull someone over, pull over that cop, ask him why he's harassing peaceful people," she said on the podcast. "And if he continues doing it, place him under arrest."

In a phone interview with Snopes, DiMezzo compared the current job of policing to acting as "road pirates," meaning she views much of what they do as focused on citing the public so the government can collect fines.

DiMezzo also confirmed that she is a satanist — but by that she means she's an atheist. She doesn't believe in, much less worship, any deity.

"Anyone who believes that Lucifer or Satan actually exists, I'm not on board with," she said.

In that way she falls in line with the more prominent satanic organizations in the U.S., namely The Satanic Temple and the Church of Satan, which are atheistic. Their main focus is activism in favor of pluralism, in opposition of what they view as undue influence of Christianity in the U.S. political system and laws.

DiMezzo ran for Cheshire County sheriff as a libertarian in 2018, but this year the longtime Republican candidate Earl Nelson didn't run, offering her the chance to run unopposed as a major-party candidate.

Even if she doesn't win, DiMezzo said she hopes that her run can be a wake-up call that people need to do their research on the candidates they vote for and not simply vote based on party alignment. In 2018, running as a libertarian, DiMezzo only garnered 747 votes, less than a quarter of the votes she received this year. She said she believes the only reason she got so many more in 2020 was because she had an "R" next to her name.

Running on a major party ticket is a "giant middle finger to the entire system," she said. "I think that's what people like about it. They're fed up with the system."

DiMezzo said she gets a lot of messages of support, even from people who say they wouldn't vote for her but respect what she's doing.

"Even die-hard Christian conservatives say they don't agree with me, but they say this needed to be done," she said. "I get people saying they're going to pray for me, but I don't consider that hate. I just consider that confusion on their part."

Mail-in ballots in New Hampshire must be received by Nov. 3, 2020, at 5 p.m. Check Snopes' state-by-state vote-by-mail guide for more information.

Update 11/04/2020: As reported by the Keene Sentinel, Aria DiMezzo lost her bid for Cheshire County Sheriff.

    Trailblazing trans woman becomes first to get Ugandan ID card with correct gender - PinkNews

    Cleopatra Kambugu, a trailblazing trans activist and writer, makes history as the first transgender person in Uganda to have their new gender recognised by the government. (Instagram/@xulaye)

    The first known Ugandan trans woman to receive a national ID card with an 'F' marker wants to "shed the sad African trans narrative".

    Cleopatra Kambugu always knew she was different. Growing up in Kampala, Uganda, in a family of 15, she describes her early life as challenging.

    "People always called me 'boy-girl' or 'shemale'," she tells PinkNews. Her transness was always clear to her and to those around her, but she was held back by a lack of knowledge and terminology.

    "Growing up in an era when trans people were being policed, paraded on Jerry Springer and limited to the sex worker narrative was tough," she said. "So I turned to education to gain an understanding of who I am."

    But as is all too common, her school failed to cover gender or sexuality beyond heterosexuality. Nonetheless, the experience ignited a flame within Kambugu.

    Now 35, Cleo Kambugu is a leading trans activist working towards social justice and equality for trans, intersex and non-binary people, as well as sex workers. In 2016, she became the subject of a film titled The Pearl of Africa, "a story of love, hate and being transgender".

    When the Ugandan government passed its Anti-Homosexuality Act in 2013, prohibiting same-sex sexual relations, Kambugu was outed by a tabloid newspaper. She fled to neighbouring Kenya for safety.

    Following her move, she joined an activist-led foundation called Uhai Eashri that provides funding for sexual and gender minorities based in East Africa. Within the first year of her joining, Kambugu facilitated the success of a grant transfer of $200,000 to an Ugandan movement in support of bringing down the Anti-Homosexuality Act. It was annulled three months later.

    "This ushered a new era of donors believing that education and litigation advocacy can change things," she beamed.

    "The trans community in Uganda have done a lot of work to shift social norms around sexuality and gender. So, while some folks might not like trans people, they at least know who they are."

    Kambugu recalls being 20-something when she first met another trans person on a night out. "Just seeing someone who looked like me reassured me," she said.

    Through the work she was doing at Uhai Eashri, Kambugu set her sights on creating a documentary that followed her journey to medically transitioning. She began reaching out to people, but with little success she turned to YouTube to post videos from her dorm room, always signing off with: "Feel free to get in contact if you want to make this a film."

    After several Skype calls with the Swedish director Johnny von Wallstroem, Kambugu made The Pearl of Africa, showcasing intimate moments with her then-partner, a cis man. The film attracted global coverage from CNN, AOL and many more.

    Off the back of the film's success, Kambugu became a global trans activist travelling to and from Africa – so much so that her passport ran out and she had to move back to Kampala to renew it, in 2017.

    "I was flustered at the thought," she said. "I wanted to avoid excessive questioning so declared my identity beforehand."

    She sought pro-bono advice from a community lawyer with the Human Rights Advocates Program, who enlightened her about the Registration of Persons Act. The law means that, to change a gender marker on identification documents, a person must have signed permission from both parents and the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development.

    "From that, I went in and requested that my case be handled by the highest person at the Ministry of Internal Affairs that dealt with passports and advice, which I secured," she said.

    To her surprise, there were no complications. The minister mentioned needing some time to consult with a legal tribunal to ensure he could not be reprimanded for what he was about to do. After a few days, Kambugu was called in and handed a new passport with the gender marker 'F'.

    Securing her passport in 2018 was just the beginning, especially since in Uganda, more value is placed on the national ID card. Without one, citizens are unable to interact with the government, vote, access health care or own any property.

    "It comes with another set of barriers," she said, "your local council has to approve of who you are post-transition and your parents too – despite your age."

    Luckily, Kambugu spent seven years working with her family as she transitioned, so they agreed to sign for her ID.

    On 27 September, Kambugu logged into Instagram to announce through a heartfelt post, that after a year-long wait (due to COVID) she had become the first trans woman to obtain an Ugandan national ID card in her correct gender.

    "I don't think in giving me this ID they were making a statement. Just this year, [the government] were just discussing the sexual offence bill to re-criminalise homosexuality," she said.

    Many African cultures believe that a name can path out your child's future, so when she discovered that Cleopatra meant "father's glory", it felt like a beautiful way to honour her close paternal relation. Likewise, her last name, Kambugu, her grandfather's name, means a perennial weed that is difficult to eradicate because of its resilience and stubbornness.

    "I want to spend the next 35 years of my life shedding the sad African trans narrative. We don't just carry tragic stories," she said, "I am a molecular biologist, geneticist, activist, imaginative, daring, different, audacious and an Aries."
