Denver's WestWord reports on the medical marijuana "farce" controversy

Denver’s WestWord reports on the medical marijuana “farce” controversy

Steve Bloom finally takes takes the bait this month and splashes the edited, out-of-context email all over his website as if it were a public pronouncement from NORML, leading to re-posts on other cannabis websites and countless angry denunciations and spirited defenses in the comments sections.
