    I think the CSA will go before Texas changes its laws.

    It is federal court. If it can be proven that an impartial jury cannot be found in Washington, they will transfer venue.

    I lived in Seattle when I was younger. I remember how much weed was around that it was crazy. The Green Tortoise Hostel in downtown even had its own smoke room. Now the place moved around the corner. I don't know how smoke friendly they still are?

    So if the Feds decide to begin prosecuting, are they going to transfer venue for every single case? Then set a precedent where citizens from a different state have the potential to govern what should be considered legal or illegal in Washington?

    Where would they transfer venue? Oregon? California?

    Do you grow your own vegetables? I personally don't as not only am I lazy, I most likely won't grow them as well as the professionals. The stuff that get's grown nowadays are light, temperature, humidity, etc controlled. These are done by folks who have PHD's in botany. There will always be a market for any product where somebody can provide great quality.

    It would be unprecedented to have a significant number of cases for which an impartial jury cannot be found. They could also transfer venue to the Eastern District of Washington which differs politically significantly from the Seattle-Tacoma area.
