“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Owner of massive cannabis cafe cleared of most charges on appeal

DutchNews.nl, Wednesday 16 July 2014

(NOS/ANP)

The owner of a massive cannabis café near the Belgian border has been found not guilty of most of the charges against him by Amsterdam’s appeal court in the second case of its kind this month.

The man does not have to go to jail, is not a member of a criminal organisation, and does not have to pay a fine, the court ruled.

The café in Terneuzen was closed by the town’s mayor in 2007 because it broke government rules on soft drug sales. At its height, the Checkpoint cafe was said to be serving up to 3,000 clients and processing 10 kg of marijuana a day.

Coffee shops with more than 500 grammes of cannabis on the premises are not covered by the official policy of turning a blind eye to soft drugs.

At one point the cafe even moved from the town centre to a large out of town location with generous parking space, with council help.

Court

In 2010 the owner was found guilty of membership of a criminal organisation, fined €9.7m and sentenced to 16 weeks in jail. In 2011, the Council of State ruled the closure was correct.

However, in Wednesday’s ruling the court said the prosecution department had not proved Checkpoint had knowingly broken the rules on marijuana sales. The café is guilty of having too much marijuana on the premises but this does not merit a prison sentence, the court said in a statement.

In addition, the court pointed out that the authorities had encouraged the café’s growth and must have understood that it needed large volumes of drugs to meet demand.

‘Therefore the court sees no reason to pass sentence on the owner or workers,’ the court statement said.

Tax office

This is the second ruling this month in which judges have refused to jail coffee shop owners for breaking guidelines on marijuana sales.

Earlier this month the owner of three cannabis cafes which had 67 kilos of cannabis on their premises avoided prosecution after judges said the police knew about his activities and that the owner had worked together with the police, council and tax office.

The judges said they were surprised the public prosecution department had even begun legal proceedings in the case.

MPs and local mayors are currently pressuring justice minister Ivo Opstelten to tackle the grey area between coffee shop sales and the supply side, which is often in the hands of organised crime.
