what. the. fuk?
While protecting the public from the "dangerous effects" of marijuana, police allegedly used Occupy protestors as human guinea pigs by giving them massive quantities of pot, then transporting them to an isolated government warehouse for observation.
Police used young Occupy Minneapolis participants as human “guinea pigs” for a government drug research program, says a lawyer for six of the 99-percenters. The protestors, all in their late teens or early twenties, filed a civil lawsuit in February alleging they were subject to “essentially an unethical clinical trial” whereby police targeted Occupy Minneapolis protestors, homeless individuals, and other “vulnerable members of the population” and offered them free marijuana without the risk of arrest.
Which sounds pretty awesome, actually! Except that the armed police officers allegedly provided each of the protestors with up to ten bowls worth of random, presumably ****ty street pot “obtained from police evidence in other cases” and then drove them to a government warehouse for “observation” — which basically sounds like the recipe for the most terrifying four hours in human history.
“Our playing field is they used these kids as things, they used them as guinea pigs,” argued attorney Alan Milstein at a hearing in front of U.S. Magistrate Franklin Noel last week. “They used them as means to an end, and that’s wrong.”
However, state officials have defended this practice of providing marijuana to members of the public, which they say is an important part of their Drug Recognition Evaluator Training Program. Which is used to prevent marijuana from being provided to members of the public.
“They voluntarily got into police cars and left,” said Jason Hiveley, lawyer for the state’s law enforcement agencies. He added that there was no evidence police targeted only Occupy Minnesota protesters for the experiment, and that some of the subjects “volunteered more than once.” Well, obviously. It’s puff PUFF pass. Repetition is key.
Magistrate Noel said he is taking the matter under consideration but offered no timetable for his decision (presumably seven to ten eternities if you are currently high). In the meantime, if a cop offers you free pot in exchange for a visit to an undisclosed government warehouse, it’s probably safe to say there’s a catch.
