Richard W. Johnson: His Philosophy and Optimism
April 26, 2011, 3:34 p.m.
This edition of Radio Curious is again about Richard W. Johnson Jr., publisher of a group of newspapers in Mendocino County, California, called Mendocino Country. He died March 16th, 2011. This interview was recorded in June 2008 shortly after voters passed Measure B, a ballot measure that attempted to regulate marijuana growth and production. The measure repealed an earlier ballot initiative Richard Johnson wrote, Measure G in 2000, that set a limit of 25 plants and 2 pounds of processed marijuana. Measure B reduced the limits to 6 plants person and 8 ounces of processed marijuana. Richard Johnson was opposed to Measure B and we began our conversation recorded June 18th, 2008, when I asked him why he took on this issue considering the fact that he did not use marijuana.
Richard W. Johnson said he didnât have time to read, because he was too busy writing.
The interview with Richard Johnson was recorded June 18, 2008.
