Howdy, my name is Kris Millegan and I have been the organizer and coordinator of the local Eugene event that is part of worldwide gathering celebrating and seeking the liberation of the herb Cannabis, Hemp, Marijuana.
For the last four years, there has been a local march and rally. Cannabis supporters have paid for insurance coverage for the march and paid the City of Eugene for police parade patrols.
This year I had already decided to not have a march this year in favor of a simple political assembly and instruction of our Representatives through means of a peaceable manner and hopefully, dialogue.
It is my understanding that to assemble more than twenty-five people, one must get a permit from Downtown Eugene, Inc., a downtown merchantâs association. Where a merchantâs association would derive such power is unknown.
I must as a matter-of-conscious ask the council, Quo Warranto?
Under what authority, does the City of Eugene/Downtown Eugene, Inc., claim the right to supersede the Constitution of Oregon or the United States Constitution and their respective Bill of Rights for peaceful assembly, redress and instruction?
And again as a matter-of-conscious I must ask Quo Warranto?
Under what authority, does the City of Eugene or any governmental body claim the right to arrest, charge, incarcerate and cause financial loss to citizens for the possession of Cannabis, a gift from Natureâs God. There is no legislative jurisdiction arising either from the Constitution of Oregon or the United States Constitution for prohibitive possession statutes of a plant that comes from Almighty God. Cannabis prohibitory statutes are void ab initio.
To prohibit alcohol, which takes a manufacturing process, it took a constitutional amendment at both the State and Federal level.
My beliefs on this matter are of long standing public record.
As a matter-of-fact, both our Oregon Constitution and US Constitution allow my ability to have a personal relationship with Cannabis.
We live in a Republic and are guaranteed by the US Constitution a republican form of Government. My civil rights are inalienable and come from Almighty God. My civil rights do not come from a piece of paper or a vote of the people. Our State and Federal Constitutions limit the power and authority of the Government.
I am a blood-member of the Buffalo-Mandan tribe of Big Sandy Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada. One of our tribeâs sacred herbs is Cannabis and is used ritually and socially.
I am a Christian and a follower of Hindi and Rastafarian/Coptic traditions; all three faiths have historical use of Cannabis in their rituals.
I am also an herbalist and take Cannabis for its phlegmatic abilities.
I do not come here tonight to be combative but hope for dialogue so that our society may rid itself of the corrupting influence of a black market and deal with the issue in a constitutionally sound way, where individual civil rights are not illegally denied and government participates in legitimate regulation and revenues.
I can be reached at 541.744.0090 or [EMAIL PROTECTED] for any officials and citizens that would like to have dialogue on this issue.
We are holding an instruction of our Representatives about our Constitution by assembling together in a peaceable manner and through Natural religious rites of worship to Almighty God, today on May 1, 2004 at the Wayne Morse Free Speech Plaza at Eighth and Oak, Eugene, Oregon at high noon.
