420 Campaign - The HIGH TIMES Strategy for Legalization

Wed, Nov 08, 2006 12:15 pm

more: 420 campaign, 420, activism, legalization

The readers of HIGH TIMES want marijuana legalized, nationwide, and now. Here’s our simple plan to make marijuana’s legalization happen: ask for it, and keep asking until we get want we want. It really is that simple. If you want pot to be legal, you have to ask. If you want to stop all arrests for marijuana possession, you have to ask.

The 420 Campaign is a plan to bring legalization before the US Congress and the public. Legalization. Now. That’s what we want. How do we get it? We prepare, we mobilize and we send that message to Congress every chance we get until we get the job done. Furthermore, we want to use April 20th as a focal point every year to concentrate pressure on Congress to legalize marijuana until we get the job done.

Let’s get started! Learn your legislators. Learn how you and your friends can use your own political power to advance the cause. Start practicing now and get some experience communicating with your legislators at the local, state, and federal level. Visit the HIGH TIMES Activist Center every month to learn more, get helpful tips, and coordinate your action with other reform efforts around the country.

Legalization is going to take some time, which is all the more reason to focus on it now and begin the hard work to make it happen sooner rather than later.

Getting Started: Every voter has 5 representatives in the state and national legislature. In addition to 2 US Senators voters are usually represented in the state house, the state senate and the US Congress. Legalization starts by learning these three districts. Start the legalization process with all of your legislators and prepare to take part in the 420 Campaign. Use the BCR Guide to State Legislative and Congressional Districts and Maps to lookup and research your representatives.

Now, focus on one simple task. Write your congressional representative and ask them this basic question: Congressman, what is your position on marijuana’s legalization and why? Don’t make an argument for legalization at this time; just find out where they stand. The best starting point is to get your congressional representative on the record about the legalization issue. Once we know where they stand we can focus on changing their position.

Marijuana legalization is a national issue. It requires a national response. HIGH TIMES readers want marijuana legalized, now. HIGH TIMES readers want an end to marijuana possession arrests. The purpose of The 420 Campaign is to stick up for all marijuana users. We want marijuana legalized, now, nationwide. It’s time to focus on that fundamental objective, and that’s the purpose of The 420 Campaign.

Resources for The 420 Campaign:

The most valuable resources for seeking marijuana’s legalization are provided by the drug policy reform movement. The seven most capable organizations of the reform movement have already shown tremendous leadership in representing the interests of marijuana users and other citizens before national and state legislatures. These seven sisters of reform are:

Americans for Safe Access
Common Sense for Drug Policy
Drug Policy Alliance
NORML
Marijuana Policy Project
Media Awareness Project
Stop the Drug War (DRCnet)

Each of these organizations provides legalization supporters with leadership, experience, and resources that are essential to a successful campaign to legalize marijuana.

Another useful resource for information about contacting Congress on any issue is Project Vote-Smart, which provides some of the best links to political and legislative resources in the country.

The Bulletin of Cannabis Reform provides a guide to congressional districts and additional research links about marijuana policy and legalization issues.

DrugScience.org provides information about the Coalition for Rescheduling Cannabis and efforts to change the legal status of medical cannabis under existing federal laws.

All of these resources make it easy to learn about the issues and contact your congressional representatives. It’s up to supporters of marijuana’s legalization, though, to use these organizations and resources to focus the Congress on the need to legalize marijuana.

what people fail to relize is pot does not come from giant drug cartels that are out doing real crime. pot comes from the most laid back group of people around potheads how many people do you know that grow but dont smoke? thats there lively hood if it completly legal what are those people gona do for a living? nothing they are gonna be jobless. is the goverment gona be using the extra tax money for welfare checks? i dont think so. i used to be for legalization but really jus make it where i can have 4 or 5 plants and a ounce or two and it not be a felony. keep the mony in our pockets and outa the goverments

oh and all this crap about putting low life criminals and evil cartels out of buisness is bullshit. one must realize that 99% of weed dealers are decent people who deserve their way of life cause they have been putting their life on the line to keep the smoke rolling. if you are afraid of the police you shouldnt smoke pot, or even step out of your door.

Jul 30 2009, 3:27 pm

what will all the current weed dealers do when it is legal? will they go to college and learn a new trade? or get a job at burger king? some will yes, but the others will start selling other drugs and then will find out what a REAL prison sentence is. legalization will benefit the dealers that have to hide behind a weed shop counter to deal and the users with personal amounts in their pockets who are scared of the police and of the communtiy service that results from possession charges. real dealers will be fucked out of their jobs, their only source of income taken away from them and givin to legit buisnessmen. legalization means corporization. weed will become just another corporate product like bud light or newports and the asshole business-class of america will be making all the money off of it. oh and all the mom and pop weed shops in CA will not be able to compete with phillip morris or wal mart. and yes if it is legalized it will be sold in wal mart, just like beer and cigaretts and every other corporate product in america. seriously the weed culture that has been developing for over a hundred years in this country and supporting many families will be destroyed, taken over by advertizers, C.E.O.'s and marketers.

Keep it illegal!! Lower the fines and make it a non arrestable offense but keep it illegal. $6 for a pack of cigarettes! Can you imagine how much a pack of government regulated joints would be?! Screw that! Weed is cheaper than cigarettes and i would like to keep it that way!

Andre preach! It's so hard for me to talk about my stance on marijuana laws, because I feel that it's such a no brainer. I get all mixed up, and I don't know where to start. I don't even smoke! Look at people on anti-depressants, it takes them months to come off these drugs, this is addiction. People live stressful lives, and to allow them a peaceful, natural way to collect themselves, and to get their OWN thoughts together would just make way too much sense. Like the sense it would take to take billions of dollars out of the hands of low-life criminals and to place it in the hands of tax paying citizens. Or to lighten the load on the criminal justice system to focus on real crime. The legalization of marijuana would save money on the legal end and would make money on the private end, this is operating in a way that is rational and makes sense. HELLO! IS ANYONE THERE! Cripple the cartels, take their revenue and create a place to live that is tight.
Ancient wisdom meets modern knowledge. Think about it.

The drug war is a sham. It keeps the members of the criminal justice system employed and a large percentage of the minority population on ‘the plantation’. The police like it's status because it's an easy bust. Legalize it all, tax it, treat the addicts, use the jails for real criminals and lets concentrate on some important issues, like health care, re-regulating the financial institutions and creating a commerce based tax rather than taxing income. Oh yeah, the most important thing, we have to oust the corporate owned politicians and change the campaign finance regulations.

I believe most people who enjoy pot (and only pot, no coke, booze or pills) and mother natures beauty/natural cures, don't have much patience for beurocrats/politicians. I'm 45, and I've yet to see the govt do much about recycling, support for more substistance style living/organic farming, fewer metropolis', or even improve on the 20 mpg rating that Henry Ford got in his car 100 years ago.

Most Americans believe they have clean drinking water flowing from their tap, and that there is such a thing as "clean coal". Clinton charged the EPA to investigate and report on the 400,000 chemicals we are ingesting. They passed the buck when the Clean Water Act was enacted (Reaganomics?)and neither dept has done a thing. They are most likely all carcinogenic-endocrine inhibitors we are all enjoying today, and being passed to your children at a 10x higher concentration. What chance do you think the govt is actually going to willingly change their position on pot?

1,000,000 on Washington would be impressive, but look what it got Martin Luther King and Patti Davis. 10 million might, but that would take a multi-national effort. I think it's great that the states are starting to act, but I'll be long dead and dusty before they ever reach 66%. I think all these activists/organizations should come together, under one name, one national cause.

Then you would have the power to actually get people to respond. I'll join the club, you send me a properly formatted letter to the reps/congress and I'll send the e-mail to represent my voice. 10 million e-mails is a loud message.

marijuana has so much more positive effects over negative, if any are negative. ever since ive been smokin it, ive been happier, more socially active, and ive been concentrating and been more positive in school. my grades have substantually gone up. this is tha same case for other students at my school. All the "pot heads" usually have the best grades. i think that when students ditch school just to blaze some kill, it sends a worse message to the country. so if students just stayed in class and expressed their thoughts about why it should be legalized, more minds would be changed...

"PLEASE, DON’T TAKE MY DADDY AWAY”...” A potential Drug War Tale”

By: James Ethridge

As I have been reading more and more about the position these cannabis prohibitionists as well as politicians in this country and keep reading about one of their biggest excuses, and that is…and I quote: “Legalization of marijuana for the consumption of consensual adults, will only serve to send the wrong message to our kids and young people”.

Let’s give this a thought for a minute, and put it into a more realistic scenario of what a wrong message to send to a kid is about marijuana, and what it’s really like in the world we live in today…especially in the state of GA, where I live. (One of the toughest states on cannabis use, in the country)

A guy is sitting in his house, minding his own business, playing with his four year old son & talking to his wife about his hard day at work. This guy has been secretly growing and using marijuana for many years, without any problems with the police, no gang relations, or any other kind of trouble making activity at all. Just a hard working guy that, pays his taxes, cuts his grass, takes care of his wife and kid the best he can and secretly grows and smokes his own personal pot.

Anyway…like I said, he’s just sitting there, minding his own business, when there’s a loud crash at the door, and several men in black armor and helmets come storming through, pointing fully automatic weapons in the faces of the father and his wife & forcing their faces into the carpet of their own home, that they were just playing on with the 4 year old…which is now screaming at the top of his lungs and crying,“PLEASE DON’T TAKE MY DADDY AWAY!!!” as they pick him up and rush him into a strange social workers arms, who rushes him to god only knows where screaming and crying, due to traumatic stress…Hmm, kind of sounds a little like Berlin in the 40’s doesn’t it?

Now, I ask you…WHAT’S THE REAL MESSAGE WE WANT TO SEND TO OUR KIDS?

Jail for Mommy and Daddy and a life in foster care?

Please think about cannabis reform for Georgia, and please put an end to the terrorist disregard for humanity that the DEA and federal task forces impose on otherwise, law abiding citizens of this great country.

We are all tired of living in fear of loosing everything we have, due to militant law enforcement agencies.

Please end this horrible war on the people that place people like you in power.

Actually the world would lose many jobs if Marijuana were legal. Think of how many prescription drug companies would go out of business if pot became legalized. I wouldn't care, since I consider those drug companies and the stores that distribute them to be evil, but those jobs would be diminished.

Government needs to sell license to grow your own marijuana. Sales would be outrageous. Stop people having to spend money on weed and can put more money in economy.

With these organizations telling kids that marijuana is bad it has brainwashed them. Im not lying when I tell you there are more and more kids "above the influence" at my school. We NEED to continue to stand for our cause! If something is not done by the time Im in college my goal will be to legalize the bud by grduating as a attorney.

Legalizing Marijuana

Jan 1 2009, 10:23 am

When is the Government going to realize that the Money we spend each year on making Drugs illegal, Costs Billions and there have Been NO Stoppage in the Amount and Ease of Getting Drugs?, all we are doing is keeping the money in the hands of the Criminals, people are dieing every day, and the Border with Mexico is a Crime. If Drugs were legal it would make the Drug cartels weak, it would take their Power away, plus if the Government would take control and tax the drugs we would pay for the Deficit and More.....

Cigarettes are legal (Drug) Alcohol is legal (Drug). They are taxed, that’s the reason they are legal, why not legalize Drugs and Tax them. It would cut down on Crimes and Deaths. (Think of all the Money the Government would make).

You Can't Drink Alcohol till your 21, You Can't Smoke till your 18. Put the Same Restirctions on Drugs. Tax it, Make the Government Money!!

Just a thought....

Last year the U.S. house was 58 votes shy of (218 needed to pass) getting at least Medical Marijuana legalized. Now the Democrats have picked up 20+ seats in the house. Those pickups have ousted 19 Incumbent Republican Representatives and 3 Democrats that were against legalization and 2 Dems that were for it. That means if ALL of the new Democrats coming to the house would support legalization(which it's mostly Democrats that do) we would only be 36 votes shy of getting it passed.(There's a total of 435 U.S. Representatives) If 36 Representatives. could be persuaded to vote for it, this would likely pass thru the House and the Senate, and would definitely make the path the legalization for general population much, much easier. Most Democratic Senators would vote for this legislation and the 8 or 9 new Senators to come would be most likely to follow in their party's footsteps. Like Shadow said before, we need to get off our asses and take action. if you would like further insight, you can email me at jamuja3@aol.com

Think about this and get pissed off !

Your legal rights are being violated:
Alcohol is dangerous, and a proven killer on our National Highways yet it is legal for licensed manufacturers to produe it, and legal for consumers to purchase it. Yet you cannot grow, smoke or purchase marjuana; a plant that is a plant as grain is, used to make alcohol and a plant that has none of the detrimental health effects Alcohol does.
The system arrests you, fines you, confiscates your personal property, and often encarcerates you. It is State & Federal Government organized crime and abuse against citizens for the sole purpose of generating State and Federal funds unconstitutionally and unjustly. Ban marjuana also ban alcohol. It is has to be this way to be just or legalize them both. To do what they are doing now is a criminal violation of citizens rights. You must defy the system and demand change against your rights being violated. They are F-ing all of us everyday and everytime they make an arrest involving marjuana. We need to grow it everywhere in every place prolifically and work them to death trying to eradicate it all. In the middle of the night plant it in front of every Federal and State government building in America and put it in their face all the time and let them know they will never win at abusing us.

Legalize the Weed! I smoke what the fuck I want!

Shadow

Nov 5 2008, 12:42 am

We now have a Democratic President, House and Senate if as I can tell at this moment as voting results are still comming in.
We as citizens have the legal right to to grow and consume this plant. It is a God given right to mankind, and it says this in Genisis chapter 1 : 11 and in chapter 1:28-31 Kings James version; that we have the God given right of this plant. When a person goes to court and before they testify it is required they place their right hand on the Bible repeating after the clerk of court " I will tell the truth,and nothing but the truth so help me God." Why is they use the Bible to persuade a person to tell the truth from conviction yet they themselves rob the the truth and our rights from us written clearly in the same book ?.
Facts:
It is legal to purchase alcohol in America. Alcohol is associated with many degenerating diesases and many many deaths. It can also be physically addicting ( DT's), and it is the major cause of death on the highways of America. Marjuana on the other hand has killed no one, and is often used to treat ilness, and relieve pain. Hypocracy often lives within a great Nation and marjuana laws are just that; total hypocrasy, and fraud. Fraud being that the States use it as an illegal justification to make money opportunistically. A law is designed to protect against injury or loss. What injuries does marjuana do greater than alcohol ? What loss other than our own loss of liberty does it cause anyone ?. All marjuana laws are unconstitutional. We all need to group together nationwide and demand the Supreme court of the United States to evaluate it's true constitutionality VS alcohol. It is the right of every American to grow it, buy it and smoke it in the privacy of their own home and property. It is unconstitutional and a violation of the civil rights of Americans to be deprived and harassed by these laws that currently and unjustly exist. Now is the time we need to organize and make them hear the protest of our rights being violated everyday, every morning, and every night of all days until they legalize it. The legalization of medical marjuana is not your objective; the total legalization of marjuana as a God given right and a constitutional right is our objective. We all must demand constantly, and sternly, all the time, every single day for all these current laws to be abolished. Lets do it, lets demand it, and lets make the change that has been our right since the creation of mankind NOW !

If every single pot smoker will vote to get marijuana legalized...i think that it could happen... but we definitely need to be involve!!!

we need to stop complaining and saying that one vote won't make a difference...to be completely honest... and really lame...

YOUR VOTE makes a difference... ONE vote will make a difference!

go out there and register to vote and make sure that your voice is heard...

just think... wouldn't it be nice to be able to exercise your own right to do whatever the hell you wanna do???

Cannabis makes life better...everything about life!
the stress runs by... stop worrying about bills you can't pay... and just enjoy your life!
sex is better
food taste better
movies are better
cleaning gets fun

how can you say that its a drug??? its not! it grows just like a tomato does...except it makes LIFE wayyyyy better!!!

after rereading my last post i want to clarify something... i dont mean that anyone under 18 is not important because u are. but since u cant vote, use other means to support our cause. sign any petition that will let u, help ur friends who are 18 to realize the importance of voting, and portray ur self as a pot smoker in the most positive ways u can. if ppl who dont smoke continually see and hear smokers portray themselves as bad stereotypes...ie: burnouts, goofballs, and losers, then we will never achieve our goal. realize also that once u voice ur opinion on pot u come under scrutiny for everything u do. if u run a stopsign u just created a statistic that anti marijuan advocates can use against u and the rest of us, so play it smart! peace to all

i cant help but wonder how many of u ppl who post all the time about legalizing it actually do anything more than rant on the net. im so sick of hearing the same cliches from some ignorant child who by the way, cant vote, about how weed should be legal, and their crazy ideas on how to legalize it. TAKE IT TO THE STREETS AND TO THE BALLOT BOXES!!!!!! USE YOUR FREEDOM OF SPEECH THAT SO MANY HAVE DIED FOR AND LET UR VOICE BE HEARD!!!! oh and by the way, how much do u really trust a magazine that has been selling crappy fake buds for years with endorsements like h"highest rated bud by ht readers" get real! has ht or any of their ad companies ever sent u a sample and a comment card? of course not! they make money of our ideals!!! peace to all

Note to dolts:

Notice how they want you to ASK what their positions are. In order to recieve an answer you must provide you identity for a reply. This gives said congressman a nice little list of who is asking, which in turn gives them a target. HT and these advocacy groups make a lot of money playing on your hopes. Do you really think they want to give that up?

Hey, HT;

If these dolts can't even be bothered enough to mail a bag of peanuts, you think they will mail letters to congressmen? Please, all you are doing is getting people to reveal themselves to the very ones who will incarcerate them! What you have them doing is busy work. Neither you nor the organizations you list care one iota about legalization, except that they don’t want it. You are making FAR more money from it being illegal, and so is our gov’t, to be making it legal now.

If I’m wrong, support the peanut protest. That WILL work! It already has the one time it was tried and it makes a lot more sense than writing to your reps and asking them where they stand!

Apr 6 2008, 7:45 am

We had a Boston Tea Party, now let’s have a Peanut Protest!

4-20-08

Don’t laugh or mock it, just do it!
EVERYBODY who lights up, EVERYBODY who is tired of the gov’t putting their guns in our faces and taking our lives needs to participate!

EVERBODY!

On 4-20-08 we start mailing and we keep mailing until they acquiesce!
It’s not expensive, if we can afford the smoke, we can afford the nuts!

Why wait for the puppets at HT or NORML and the host of others who fight more for our money than our cause? Remember last years TV show, Jericho, which was canceled? The fans got it renewed by bombarding those who canceled it with peanuts, after the last line of the last show. What if we mailed millions of bags of peanuts to the white house? Lets freak out some politicians! It’s peaceful, it’s legal and there is not a damn thing they can do about it or, once started, stop, without ending prohibition first! Isn’t it time we did something besides acquiesces to their rules and play the voting game sham?

The rules:

1) Make the 'return' address the same as the 'send to' address. This forces them to deliver because they can't return the package to it's origin. If the white house refuses to accept the peanuts, the post office must contend with it. Which means the white house has to deal with it anyway.

2) Make the package half a pound, no more than one pound. We want lots of packages, not one big one!

3) Write in big letters 'END MJ PROHIBITION!' on the package.

4) Use ONLY the US postal service. Bringing the postal system to a grinding halt will help make the point! No point punishing UPS and the like.

5) Spread this around! Get everyone involved!

6) Ignore any protests of how terrorists can make use of it. Politicians have been ignoring us without concern for our safety. If they force us to live in fear, them let them join us at the table and share in the meal they prepared!

I agree with "pot smoker" except for one minor detail: the government would save more money than it would gain in court fees by no longer spending $9 billion+ a year on the war against pot. Plus, the money they would gain from pot taxes. Were talking about the Gov. saving somewhere in the neighborhood of $8 billion

I have never once taken a puff of weed (much less do I recognize its aroma). But I support this legalization movement for one reason only: I HATE when the "powerful minds" are trying to control 100% of the people. Never underestimate the power of stupidity within authority, my friends say, and so do I. I believe that the ones in office should listen to the arguments that scientists have proven that weed is hella safer for your lungs, your brain, and your well-being. (Personally, if I were ever to start, I would get a vaporizer, but I don't have much money at this time)

I believe that in time we will overcome and that Marijuana use by adults will be legalized. We just haven't shown how 1. lucrative sales of it could bring our deficit down by placing the same taxes on it as Beer or Cigarrettes. 2. Substancially decreasing the over crowded Jails and prison problems and cost there of. 3. How the use of Hemp can not only improve our economy but also help our ecology. We need to bring forth our right to choice. That no one has ever died of the in take of Marijuana. Nor has it caused violent crimes on others that led to death. It is a plant that was created by God and though it has been banned by the Government whom has wasted many of our tax dollars while negatively effecting our ecology with the annual crop burings has in no way stopped our use or extinct it. Common sense will show that illegalized Marijuana use cost more then profits.

we need to start getting involved in our govt at the smallest level. like town politics. we ignore the issue of legalization until we get a bigger platform of major issues. we cant start with legalization as a platform because it seperates a vote. if not an issue at first it wont affect you on yes or no based on that opinion. when you get enough political power it would be easier to bring it up then because you would have more influence. if we show that we as smokers can make the world a better place by doing simple things like volunteer work for the less fortunate. it will show we are doing more than smoking and working. it will show us as what we really are. And as a peaceful culture of smokers we cant just complain create conspiracies as to why its illegal. we have to get involved in the govt and adhere to our oaths of office in which we would have to protect the constitution in which the reality would be that its unconstitutional to proibit marijuana. We should even become involved with law enforcement to stop violence not to make marijuana arrests. We have to get into the system because we slowly become the system. And then when we have control of 2/3 of legislature we can do it but our responsibilities would be to make our towns states country and even the world a better place.

Dec 20 2007, 8:32 pm

drugs in the u.s. are considered a threat to national security. That is because they are illegal here. the reason they are a threat to our country is because of international trade. it is easier to traffic than to cultivate. the problem is that american dollars are going to other countries thus limiting the money in circulation for us. to stop funding other countries or terrorist groups we must legalize it here for all purposes. other countries may follow suit or begin trafficing from here. it will be good economically for the u.s. Even if we put dealers and users in jail for life there would still be drug use. As americans we have the right to the persuit to happiness without infringing on anothers rights. smoking weed does not infringe on anybodies rights. we should have the freedom to choose what we will or wont put into our bodies. jobs could also require that you cant consume marijuana even if it was legal. the rapid rate of photosynthesis helps produce lots of o2 thus possibly capable of helping air quality and possibly the ozone. and maybe helping with global warming.

I totally agree with you Johnny Stickyseed! for sometime now i though it would be a good idea to get seeds from a seed back and use a plane and fly around and release seeds in good grow areas. If enough seeds where released it would be nearlly impossible to get rid of them all and it would bring a lot of attention on the issue. Imagine our national forests full of marijuana plants! If i had the resources to do this i totally would, so if anyone does have the resourses help us all

Johnny Stickyseed

Dec 9 2007, 1:18 am

If everyone who smokes would plant their leftover seeds here and there and everywhere...and I mean EVERYWHERE, random places, out of reach places, public places, etc., every year the plants would eventually become naturalized and elimination would become extremely expensive and difficult for gov't. Pretty soon they'll have to fold b/c of the pressure of spending too much money and manpower over a useless venture. Sure, they will be able to get rid of some of it, but there will always be a few to survive and the birds / animals will help to distribute them out further.

Alright well, I my self do not smoke weed. But most of my friends and family do. And none of them have droped out, killed people, or gone insane from smoking weed. Like most people said it's only illegal becasue the goverment wants the money, if people get a hold of enough seeds they can grow there own plant and smoke it whenever, unlike tabacco. Not to mention how much money the anti-drug commites are making off comericals and what not.
I do belive though that weed can become leagal, we just need enough supporters and someone who has a higher hand in the goverment.

Nov 26 2007, 6:19 pm

As long as the US is in the UN, weed can NEVER be "legal." The only possible way is decriminalization. To US is party to UN Drug Control strategies, and once the US signs an international treaty, it becomes equivalent to the Law of the Land, under the 6th article of the US Constitution. Basically, this means that there can be, and is no "legal" weed in the US as the Constitution is written, and the Constitution supersedes "states rights" in every court and every law officer's actions. Sorry to be a bummer, but trying to bring you Down to Earth, too. We should pick our battles instead of tilting at windmills.

http://media.www.buvoice.com/media/storage/paper227/news/2007/11/08/opinion/should.Marijuana.Be.Legalized-3080449.shtml

Base on personal experience, I am a college student who smoke bud almost daily, and all my grades are either A or B. My health is good and I have never endangered anyone in my life while stoned. I just can't believe some of the ignorant people in this country today. All my stoner friends in school is doing good and none of them have hurt anyone in their life because of smoking.

Maybe some people should not smoke marijuana because everybody is different. But for the majority, marijuana is only a way of relaxation much like watch TV or listening to music.
Just like some people are lactose intolerant, but does that mean we should ban milk and dairy products?

I just hate bull shits. If the government really care for wellbeing of their citizens, they might as well make everything illegal. If you don't like it, then don't smoke or don't make friend with people who smoke, no body is forcing you. Just don't pass negative judgement on me because I smoke.

Why do people have to fuck over other people's quality of life by been a fucking idiot. Have you ever met anyone so stupid and ignorant that you are actually shocked that those kind of people still exist in the world today? Anyway, that article just pisses me off.

Nov 2 2007, 12:18 am

OK for all of you dumbasses who say the government cant tax weed you are stupid as fuck. how can the government tax alchohol then? If marijuana was legalized it could be easily grown, packaged, and sold just like cigs are. Its that simple. Think about all the positive things that would come out of weed being legalized. Not only would us stoners get high with a lot more ease, but the government would make more money with taxes which would in turn make our country better with better healtcare and social security and roads and everything else that comes good with abundant money. Plus think of all the jobs that could be established. Every day our govt bitches about 2 many people not having jobs. Well this would put more people to work for growing, picking, pruning, packaging, etc.

We need to stick together and fight it till the death just like all the boozers did back in the day

If anyone really wants to know the "real" history of Mary Jane watch the History channel they show how the media and rich citizens like old man William Randolph Hearst help start a smear campaign to convince people and eventually YOUR goverment that the wacky weed is evil! From there they didn't make it illegal, they came up with TAX stamps that the states would make a "token" amount of, but never really intend to give out. The rest is history, states slowly were brainwashed and given incentives from Big Brother to start making it illegal... This will slowly change as soon as all the OLD people currently entrenched in the house and senate are replaced by individuals that know the truth about ganja and are tired of people spending more time in prison for WEED offenses than registered sex offenders! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

H.R. Pufforall

Oct 9 2007, 9:54 am

Let's be realistic about pot laws. Decriminalization is an obtainable goal. Look overseas for examples, pot is a ticket in a lot of places (under an oz). Neocons, religous nutbags and right wingers won't just simply legalize it. Campaign for something tangible first, like gays should have for same sex unions- not marraige, kind of thing. Tickets are revenue, sorry, but think like they do for a second here. You'll have idiots bringing up second hand smoke and lung cancer just like cigs, and insurance companies can lobby that off of the map. Alcohol prohibition should be the biggest example of how a ban doesn't work for something so widespread and popular. Medical THC is under gov't regulation- push that harder, it already exists. Push the fact that no spousal abuse starts with pot, as well as other domestic and public problems. It would be cheaper and safer legal for all concerned, and dispell the myths of stupidity that goes with. If someone's stupid or not to begin with, pot won't help or hurt, and it won't make smart people stupid for life- that's bullshit and we know it. Bottom line, money- revenue and less court system traffic and enforcement expense as well as medicinal profits. Pinpoint one specific area of pot reform and attack- medicinal is the closest to succeeding, then go from there- the rest is a pipe dream (pun intended). There are many bad examples of pot smokers that make it easy for legislation to get shot down. Idiots like that are our own worst enemy. My point being- they'd be bad examples of productive citizens, anyway. A HUGE advantage to relaxation of laws would be drug tests for new hires- you know pot stays in the system longer than any other- better testing for exact time would help with workers comp cases. There's a broad range of obstacles so a pinpointed effort would be the best start. Remember who we are dealing with first and go from there. In the mean time, smoke-up and don't get caught- enjoy.

Clown Smoka

Oct 7 2007, 1:15 am

I have several things to point out that can go to helping legalization.

1) "Life, Liberty, and Persuit of Happiness" this is a quote from the U.S. Constitution. Pursuit of Happiness huh? Well if weed doesn't really inhibit me from a job. Allows for relief, joy, and fun. And has a few medicinal qualities (insomnia, etc) So going with the persuit of happiness thing, if smoking gonja doesn't infringe on my work, and I buy it (if legalized) then otherwise is't the prohibition stopping my "natural rights" as a U.S. citizen, then this should be stopped by the Supreme Court (some may say "well then people can do what they want, like muder." un-true, killing stops anothers right to life, liberty, and the POH, smoking doesn't)

2)They say it is illegal because the Gov. doesn't get its share of profit/taxes, I think this is untrue, what do dealers do with the money not spent on buy weed? Buy stuff from stores, which have taxes on them! Cars, stereos, household items, all have taxes on them;therefore, a profit and taxes are eventually worked into the economy (flow of money in counrty)

Think about that.

Pleas read part 1 below this post
Part 2
Ok three basic requests. I know what about buying it, I'll get to that just take a hit and relax, and this is a short version of my 20-page thesis. Legalization is out of the question it won happen not even if every stoner votes for it. Instead lets contemplate the idea of decimalization like in the Netherlands.
First we must use the "already in use by the DEA" marijuana tax stamp. (They tax growers for the quantity in their possession.)
Each individual can purchase a yearly marijuana cultivation tax stamp to grow let’s say 10 plants a year. (It’s just a number to use as an example and any half way decent grower can yield 5 pounds from ten plants outdoors.)
Second tax stamp holders are allowed to carry a certain quantity with them. Not in schools, the work place or government buildings.
Third each tax stamp holder can posses a certain quantity in their home.
Now this still will keep the DEA and Local drug units in operation because any sale except medical will be illegal and any large grow operation will also be illegal. You see the only reason marijuana is not legal is because the government cannot control it like alcohol or tobacco. Any able human with ten seeds can grow at least five females and yield five pounds outdoors. Now I have not explained it all only because this is a shortened version from my twenty-page thesis written 10 years ago. I will send in my “Legitimate and Logical Plan for Marijuana Decriminalization” to High times to see if they will print it. Remember thin decriminalization not legalization.

Part 1
Ok, all of you please take a break from hitting your bongs.
Now I am a huge supporter of NOMRL but if any of you high mother f#$%#$# think pot will be legal in Good ol USA when it's NOT EVEN LEGAL IN THE NETHERLANDS! You are truly out of your freaking minds!
Now as for HIGHTIMES 420 plan for legalization and this is the quote. “Here’s our simple plan to make marijuana’s legalization happen: ask for it, and keep asking until we get want we want. It really is that simple. If you want pot to be legal, you have to ask. If you want to stop all arrests for marijuana possession, you have to ask.” JUST AKING FOR IT?" WHAT THE HELL? THAT IS IT! ASK FOR IT! You got to be fucking kidding me. With all of the writers Hightimes has on staff, this is the best they could come up with. No offence HT but let me propose a logical and thought out solution to all of our problems.
1) We want to be free to enjoy marijuana.
2) We want to be able to posses a certain quantity in our homes.
3) We want the freedom to grow a certain number of plants. (Federal law only allows an American citizen (not licensed tobacco farmers) to grow one acre of tobacco per year.)

I, personally, when driving down the road would much rather pass someone smoking pot, than pass someone drinking alcohol, driving around drunk. People die everyday from drinking and driving, but you never here of anyone getting killed from smoking pot and driving.

if eel they should leave the legalization desicion to small secs of the gov. like at a county level to legalize for a trial period. however the county that it is legal in should not be able to cultivate it (pricing taxing and retail by one is a monopoly and that is illegal). i smoke and i am in an extremly technical trade and i feel no effect to job performance. i do agree selling pot retail would be a great money maker just like cigs and alcohol. it would most likely make more money then cigs and liqour combined in the first 6 months of gov. distrobution then cigs and booze all year. however then you have the assholes that feel cocaine and meth should be legal and start pushing that up so the reason i feel they wont budge is then the line is grey no white or black grey so why redraw the line after pot and go through more people wanting differebt drugs legalized cause why not pots legal now. and i feel that is part of the reason we dont have legal pot. if we got all the bad shit(cocaine, heroin, meth, etc...) out and stop the spread and addiction to those our gov. would be more responsive to legalizing pot. cause that shit about it being a gateway to other harsher drugs is bullshit. the only reason a person does those drugs is cause the have a weak personality that is to easily lead into things like that.

Why do they say that booze is any better than something that is grown-? God mad grass man made booze who do you trust-!
If legalized it would KILL the national deficite in 3 years time, it would provide better fuel with NO emissions, make better clothes, paper, replace cotton, and 1 acre of pot puts off more oxygen than 1 acre of trees, it is the cousin of the tomato plant.
helps with ADHD,ADD, stomach problems, aids patients, arthritis, there are more positives and ZERO negatives. How many people have killed someone on the raod from JUST smoking pot-ZERO. if the person has combined pills, booze and then smoked pot yeah it has happend, but NOT by itself.
they say pot makes you stupid and lazy-NOT TRUE-my IQ that I took a few years ago was 128, I ran a very successfull business for over 15 years, and had 12 employees. So are they telling me I am stupid or what, I DON'T THINK SO, some of your most successfull people in this world smoke pot. SO FREE THE WEED, LEGALIZE IT.

they should deffinatly legalize weed, the shouldve done it along time ago. Weed compared to cigarettes n alchol its a no brainer weed is betterfor u then them, plus if the goverent legalized it they could make so much money, but their too busy wit their thumbs up their asses to evan se that. The goverment could sell a pack of joints like cigerattes fro like say 10$ a pack n idk millons of ppl would buy them its like the moneys sitting there, they r just to lazy to get it. Weed isnt bad, legalizion of it is good. LEGALIZE IT!

A 420 CAMPAIGN

Sep 12 2007, 11:22 pm

A 420 campaign will be an organized effort which to influence the decision making process within a specific "group". In democracies, political campaigns often refer to electoral campaigns. Political campaigns also include organized efforts to alter policy within our institution.

Any campaign is made up of three elements. The modern Mnemonic is message, money, and machine.

#1. MESSAGE is a consise statement saying why voters should legalize marijuana.
EXAMPLE: " As our society faces a rapid upswing in violent crime and an ever worsening education system, we need leaders who will keep our streets safe and restore accountability to our schools by ending prohibition of marjuana. Take a CLOSE look at D.A.R.E.

#2 CAMPAIGN FINANCE
Fundraising techniques include having the 420 campaign call or meet with large donors, (not dealers, why would they want marijuana to be legalized) sending direct mail please to small donors, and courting interest groups who could end up spending millions on the race if it is signigicant to their interest.

#3 MACHINE
Finally, 'machine' represents human capital, the foot soldier loyal to the cause, the true believers who will carry the run by volunteer activists.

Vote for al WEED

Sep 7 2007, 8:13 pm

Al WEED for congress in Virginia. Isn't that where tabacco is distributed?

Al Weed says He's running for Congress because he believes a lean and efficient government should be a partner to all people in achieving the American Dream.

HMMMMM, The "American Dream", The idea is interesting actually. Does he mean that picture on the mantel shelf, you know the "BIG PICTURE". White picket fence, two car garage, a dog, Husband, Wife, kids all smiling in the "BIG PICTURE". While you can't even talk, cause if you do your kids go fucking crazy. Is it the Jones's? The new idea of the family is role reversal and independance? yah! My idea of the family is a house with the white picket fence of course, and a basement filled with 45 Female budding pants spewing with trichomes. Then my dog dick comes down and eats an 1/8th of BUD with me.

What about Al and tipper Gore in their new book, joined at the Heart: The Transformation of the American Family. Man, Gore was ripped off in the election process man.
I always liked the Adams Family, or how about the fucking munsters with that little bratt eddie. I think that fucker was baked all the time man. Shit Eddie Munster, and his dad was an asshole man, with those fucking bolts coming out of his neck and all. Eddie's mother was the coolest though making those brownies and all. The weirdest bitch out of the munsters was Maralyn man, I don't think those were her parents.

Who Makes The Laws?

Sep 6 2007, 6:07 am

RON PAUL, EVEN IF ELECTED DOES NOT MAKE LAWS! Only legislature can make laws and they must be within the limits set forth in the Constitution. To assume (ass out of you and me) that every bill passed is law would be a power to the legislature that they can not have. To accept an ILLEGAL law (prohibition) would be accepting despotism even if it was said to be for the public good.

"Sometimes when the public good is pretended, a private benefit is intended."

Coke, 10 Rep. 142 b.
"The public good is in nothing more essentiall interested than the protection of every individual's private rights."

Prohibition is nothing more than a pretended public good, prohibition does not protect individual's private rights.

"The general rule of Prohibition is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and name of law, must be in a agreement. It is impossible for both the Constitution and a law violating it to be valid.

Against oppressive government of any kind, royal or otherwise, the authors of the great 420 campaign of American liberties will assemble and win the Grand 420 campaign.

THE GETTYSBUD ADDRESS

Aug 15 2007, 7:59 am

THE GETTYSBUD ADDRESS

Fourdoobies and seven bong hit's ago, our growers brought forth upon this continent a new plant, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that ALL plants are created equal.'
Now growers are met on a great battle-field of that war. We are met to dedicate a portion of BUD as the final resting-place of those who have given their lives that that plant might live.
It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow, this plant. The brave growers, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our power to add or detract.
The wWORLD will very little note nor long remember what we say here; but it can never forget what we have grown here.

It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated, here, to the unfinished work that growers have thus far so nobly carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great gow task remaining before us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full crop devotion; that we here HIGHLY resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that the plant shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom, and that plant of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from earth.

you mean that marijuana will not be RElegalized, dont you?
the first laws pertaining to marijuana in america were that you could go to jail for not growing it.

Other things that were illegal, but are now legal...

African Americans right to vote
African American rights to marry white women
African American rights to own property
African American rights to sit in the front of the bus and not have to give up their seats to whites
White womans right to Vote
White womens right to own property
White womens right to divorce their husbands....

The list of things that were once illegal, but are now legal, are endless, with the same rhetoric...." you fools, it will never happen"

WE THE PEOPLE need to make sure WE THE PEOPLE get control of this lying government, and change it.
If not?
It just may be illegal to comment in this website, which may also become obsolete.

You know when you look at the track records of the various organizations, you have to wonder why the MPP is so much more proactive and apparently effective and if NORML merely talks the talk to rake in the bucks and maintain the status quo of being an organization that does some lobbying for change. Of course, marijuana was legalized, 38 year old NORML would not be necessary. Moreover, magaizines like High Times would face stiff competition from the likes of cigar afficado, etc. The only group that seems to dent the shell around prohibition is the MPP. So how much does HIgh Times actually contribute to grass roots efforts to end the prohibition?

Cannabis (as I like to refer to it; its slave name is Marijuana) will never be legalized. If Cannabis was ever completely legalized it would destroy business for logging, oil, alcohol, tobacco, and gas companies. These companies already own the world. They will never let a plant put them out of business. These companies fund presidential and congressional candidates and help put them in office by giving EXTREMELY generous "donations." They dish out over a million dollars each, every day to keep children's heads full of propaganda. They tell people from childhood that it can kill you. The facts time and again have been laid on the table by committees who conduct studies that have been ordered by our government and every time these scientists determine Cannabis to be less harmful than tobacco or alcohol, the findings are dismissed. The way to win this war is to put somebody in office, presidential, congressional, and in the senate that knows what they are talking about. Not voting is not the solution as I used to believe. Voting for a person who hasn't been bread to follow orders like the Bush regime or the Gore Regime, people who are educated but not controlled by College groups like The Skulls or funded by Marlboro or Oil industries is the solution to legalizing Cannabis. If you want it legal in your state, get the uckfa eadha that is in power in your state out and educate your fellow man. A good smoker is an educated smoker who teaches other smokers and non smokers about the benefits of this wonderful plant. Peace - Anonymous

"Prohibition cannot be enforced for the simple reason that the majority of American people do not want it to be enforced and are resisting it's enforcement. That being so, the only thing to do under our form of government, is to abolish a law which cannot be enforced. A law which the people of this country do not want to be enforced."
- Fiorello La Guardia, Mayor of New York (Circa 1937)

We must look at history to plan for the future. The exact same thing that happened with alcohol will happen with marijuana.

First of all, getting busted for pot at school is pretty stupid. Do you really have to carry illegal drugs on you all the time? Also, whenever people get on here and leave comments detailing how pot has essentially ruined their lives (for example going to jail, becoming addicted to pain killers, getting put on parole etc.) and, for lack of a better word, bitching about how the police suck ass, it really portays a very negative drug user image that becomes associated with marijuana use. I just think that it would really help out our case for marijuana legalization if we stopped fucking up.

Marijuanna will never be legalized in the US. Its not about any "dangers" it poses to public health as is the official party line. It is simply a matter of big business. The pharmaceutical companies dont want it legalized and threatening their pain killing drug profits. The logging companies dont want rope and paper made out of hemp. So until their is a very rich and influential lobby in washington ready to out bid the current opponents of marijuanna, it will never be legalized

Don't frown on the pot dealer, they have been providing a service to those that cant/dont grow for many years.

Also he is right, decriminalization is what the real mission is, if it were legalized it would just become government mandated, could grow your own have to get mediocre pot from the feds, etc. decrimed and we could remain the same just minus the thead to personal freedom.

Jul 15 2007, 10:03 pm

To "fuck legalization":

You sound like a dealer yourself. Pretty much the only people I have ever heard of having problems with legalization are dealers. Another thing that peaked my interest was your comment about the article writer's grammar. Well, dumbass, you spelled grammar incorrectly. You also left out several commas and made a few other mistakes. You can buy "off of" your local dealer? The correct way of saying that would be "buy from." So take your "fuck legalization" viewpoint, go stand in the corner, and think about what you are saying.

Jul 14 2007, 1:50 am

Legalization is a mistake, plain and simple. First of all I do not want to have to pay taxes on my smoke. Also as a resident of British Columbia, I have smoked some of the government grown weed and have also read studies on it and it is not even close to the same potency as what I can buy off my local dealer. Also most people are morons already and we do not need to make it easier for them to become more stupid. Finally if it is legalized the government will have complete control over it and we all know what happens when the government has total control. But if you still want to legalize, whoever wrote the article should have someone check his grammer so you don't look like a stereotypical stoner.

6 straights - paranoid
7 God - not true he thinks its cool that's why he make it (same with hell - so He could raise some, haha)
8 politicians - can't be man enough to admit when their wrong
9 government - can't admit that their 5 times dumber then the government that imposed prohibition (10yrs vs 50yrs)we've been fighting the pot laws since the 1960's, now we're in our 5th decade.
10 us - the longer its illegal the more potheads we cultivate (when you tell kids not to do something, guess what, it makes them want to do it more. ask any shrink)

In 1937 there were some real pudknockers trying to make money for a war machine with marijuana sales. When the U.S. Federal government outlawed those sales, they threw a tantrum and invaded europe. There are still bungholes who would make money from pot smokers. Any marijuana legalization will require commercial pot growers and distributors to be authorized by the federal government, (much like distilleries,) in order that folks of the fascist persuasion have to sell bunk tupperware to make money. Have any trouble buying Jack Daniels? Potent, high quality and inexpensive fer 12.99 a fifth. Let's have the same standards and practices for bud that we have for alcohol. What, you want to buy bud from nazis or other assholes? That'll be a lot more expensive.

mostly its all scandal tv these days i guess thats where the money must fall
out of the haze of some hollywood hill im just happy to be here at all...

Now, back to the lecture at hand
it seems my neighbor wants to kill what he cant understand
i said..."wait a minute, we just cant kill what we dont understand"
but i turn on my tv and see that oh yes we can
we can and we have since the dawn of man
for countless gods who's only seeming plan
was seeing to it that Klinging to life was our fate
you gotta admit lifes pretty great, but.....can we deny that its killing us?

There needs to be a huge change in our law system pertaining to marijuana. I'm sick and tired of hearing this negative outlook on the it, just because it gets you "high" does not mean it can kill you or mend you. Look at alcohol more people are killed everyday in automobile accidents and poisoning. What kind of people are we if we let this happen? We are the country that allows freedom among it's people and it's obviously has failed to show it!! If there's anything to say to lawmakers or legislatures it should be the truth about the drug. I feel like i have to hide the fact of smoking pot, because of what people could say and get you into trouble, i don't want to have to go through with this for the rest of my life. Marijuana is completely the most favorable drug of choice and there's more people smoking it in this country than not. Everyone should get on their feet, stop being lazy stoners and prove the point. Everyone has the oppurtunity to make a difference!

I am on probation and up untill about a month ago I was smokin weed anyway.I almost got sent away a couple times.I was not on probation for drug related charges.I dont think it is right to use drug tests on the people on probation for unrelated charges.Please someone help me fight this issue!I always loved to smoke weed and all my friends and family smoke it even my pap.I wish more people would get this word out.I hope I get off of probation soon and can smoke weed but I dont think I should have had to quit anyway just so I could get off probation and I would like to try to help others with this same problem.

I cannot believe some of the complete B.S. posted here. It is no wonder legalization is taking so long if it is being backed by some of the brainiacs posting here. This is a good example of bad example. These are the reasons why it is not being legalized. I have been in favor of and fought for legalization for over 30 years now and I am sick of the stupidity of the law-makers and the lack of commitment for change among the smokers. This crap has gone on long enough! Legalize it and use it responsibly. And to both sides, if you can't say anything intelligent to back up your fight, don't say anything at all! Broken records don't mend.

If you really, really, want to legalize weed here is the real way to do it, I call it the seed in every yard policy, if you smoke at all then save all the seeds you can and since 4-20 is around spring time plant your seeds every year in the spring in everyones yard you can find, in particular I always start with all the local officials wgho are against weed, hehehe possession is nine tenths they say and those suckers won't even know it's grownin'... Anyways if everyone starts plantin like mad it will hopefully spread the use and availability, also if it's growing everywhere than it won't be such a big deal, also the other half of the plan is to stand up come out and say "Hey I am a potsmoker and I am not going to stop ever!"
Start telling your boss the shit he doesn't want to know like the fact that you and the rest of the crew get together to roast fatties and he would be invited if he wasn't a hater, and also tell them all their work comes from "us stoners"

well, i have read g washingtons diary sevral times and he makes no mention of using cocaine.
That being said, he does mention having seeds brought to him from India, planting the seeds in his favorite place called, :muddy hole:, and smoking cannabis.
He also states in his diary that he enjoyed smoking cannabis with his troops because it helped them plan up-coming battles.
Not only that..., being stoned he always stood up in the boat.
If it werent for the cannabis hemp plant washington and his troops would of froze to death.., since it was the women who used the plant to make sure they had clothing on their backs.
The war of 1812 was also fought to ensure americas cannabis hemp supplies went uninterupted. That they wont teach you in school.

all who smoke pot and get more done than the floor being cleaned. geesh.
America's founding fathers (g washington, t jefferson, b franklin, etc etc all grew and used pot. I guess they were just unmotivated pot smokers that were just too lazy to tie their own shoes.
one of the anticannabis crowds belief is that marijuana will make you unmotivated. lmao. right.
the people i know who use cannabis are practically all professional people with phd's in college.
some end up being presidents, supreme court justices, congress(wo)men, mayors(michael bloomberg nyc mayor, self made billionaire was asked "did you smoke pot?"
his reply..." you bet i did, and i enjoyed it". what a unmotivated loser.

For the record, I did not post as THE WHITE RACIST. I don't agree with his viewpoint and the fact is that anti-marijuanna laws were put in place to prevent Mexican Americans from obtaining wealth from developing paper and rope industries. If you don't believe me you can look it up yourself. You all may be angry with me because of my cynical and sarcastic comments but my true intention was to get you all thinking about real solutions and not post pipedreams.

I know I'm a jerk and believe me I hate myself more than anyone else could. I wish it was legal so I could toke and forget about all my problems. I wasn't joking when I sudjested you take the time to sober up and put forth a good effort to get awareness to the cause. I was seriously dissapointed when NOBODY held a rally on 420.

In respons to HOPING FOR CHANGE, I belive that its true all of us people as pot smokers should make a stand instead of hiding under the shadows of the law. This man HOPING FOR CHANGE is wrong. Marijuana can so be legalized. But he is right on something the government is going to want a slice of the pie..(TAXS) If they can't tax it then they wont make as much as they do from cigarettes or beer. And think, If we want this plant to be legalized, we would have to convince our government that this item could have a tax on it. Perhaps we could tell them that a permit is needed to grow this plant, just like Tobacco (you can just make a tobacco farm for personal use) or like Beer can brew it yourself... Not just any joe smoe can grow this if its legalized and thats what you have to get in the governments heads, so know they could tax pot like a pack of cigarettes!! The government could have tax on the growing permits too... Medical taxs, Food and drink taxs, fuel taxs, clothing taxs, and don't forget smoking taxs.. Let say the government could take a slice from every thing pot could be use for. There are so many uses for pot then just smoking that the goverment could take a toll on..Plus the best part of all its healther for you body then Tobacco and beer and it makes every one happyer and toghter (WHAT THE WORLD NEED) And dont forget for anyone whom try's to make this plan work.. your never wrong if you can argue wright..

i think we need to use a variety of methods to get the herb legalized.a method would be to save and germinate all the seeds you come across and plant them in every public place you are able to when the weather is proper.another is 2 non voliently resist arrest when being busted for weed.when the nation has pot plants growing everywhere and people refusing arrest for pot what will they be able to do?i have a collection 0f about 200 good seeds and i'm willing to sprout and plant every single one across my county this summer.i suggest you all do the same!

Hopin for change

Apr 16 2007, 11:02 am

The only way weed will get legalized is if the government can be convinced that they can turn marijuana into the same multi-billion dollar a year industry that cigarettes and alcohol have been, and that will never happen. Here's why: The average Joe is still going to be growing plants and selling his bud (tax-free) for a lot cheaper than the government would want to sell it. The only reason that cigarettes are legal is because the local dealer down the street doesn't have a tobacco plantation, and the government just rakes in the dough from Big Tobacco. Same with alcohol, and it is still illegal to distill your own alcohol (i.e. moonshine). The point is, since it would be nearly impossible for the government to legalize weed and at the same time regulate individuals who grow it themselves, I doubt that we will see marijuana's legalization any time soon. I guess all we can do is continue to vote, continue to smoke and continue to push for change.

There's a great idea circling called "Project Green Skies." The idea is to save all of your seeds, and put them into your bird feeders, mixed with bird seed. There is no harm done to the bird, and they help us spread the seed. If we can get pot to grow naturally all across the country (it is indigenous to every continent but Antarctica) how can they not legalize it? So participate, and tell all your friends, let's see what we can accomplish.

Why do you call pot smokers hippies? Your the reason "we" are having to distance ourselves from the "hippies" Most people think that hippies are just lazy stoners. When in fact many of us have medical or other reasons to use. So if your idea is just to sit back and laugh at "us" while we try to legalize pot, then don't you think that maybe you shouldn't be smoking it. If you can't stand up for something you believe in or live by then your just another hipocryt.

After Glow,
techniquly your right and wrong. the inhalation of hot smoke causes cancer. THC is a non-carcinogen, it doesn't cause cancer, and if it was ingested it would be absolutly harmless. Inhaling any kind of smoke for an extended period of time will cause cancer. Thats like saying you shot yourself while high. killing yourself while under the influence is not a death that is caused by or related to the drug. Conclusion, the events are uncorrolated.

Something to keep in mind when thinking about that "noone has died from marijuana" A lot of people are not willing to admit the fact that they used to toke, so when looking at the causes for lung related illnesses, this presents quite a one sided argument. My mom is a throat doctor and she once had a pationt come in with a big canserous tumer in his throat. She asked him if he smoked and he admitted to smoking marijuana (10 to 12 joints a day) I'm not trying to argue against legalisation but I think that this is a good point that should be brought up.

ohhh my wake up...if your so against this why are you even posting????do your research pot/hemp has more uses then most people think from rope to medicine....fact of the matter is yes it would be impossible to tax....but it is all about money..to many people would loose to much money on the fact that hemp could be used for so many things...the plant grows fast and can be grown just about all the time...its a damn weed...and anyone who smokes also pays taxes hey we got to work to support our habbit..seems lame paying so much for dead plants doesnt it? on the strike idea.....i dont see staying home helping our cause...electing officals that share our views will...a peaceful march may...but the fact of the matter is the people who we get our stuff from wont even be happy with this...they make alot of money bringing this stuff in..there is an insane amount of demand for pot in the united states.. im not even sure where to go from here....i guess ill just wait and see what happens....it will be a fight dont doubt that at all..like i said we live in an uneducated and mislead population regarding pot... it does have its down sides..but so does liqour, salt, and asprin......anyways i guess that all from me now....you have any ideas on how to help this cause ill be glad to hear them on my myspace http://www.myspace.com/fiorito_scoops

WAKE UP: Marijuana was legal once, as was hemp. In fact, hemp used to be an important product of the USA's agriculture. This had nothing to do with any technicality, it was just the way things were. Marijuana was made illegal in the 1900's, though the reason is not always agreed upon. It was made illegal under false pretenses and irrational fears pushed onto the citizens of this great nation.

Dear Jerman,
Your a DUMBASS!!!!
Pot was leagal for a couple days based on a techiquality on Federally issued stamp permits, which would allow people to grow pot if you already had an illegal pot farm. It was intentionally unissueable because it required that the law first be broken to get a legalizing stamp. The law was challenged and retracted. A NEW LAW was written almost immediatly, which again uses legal jargen to loosely make all forms of pot illegal.

Jerman' you are a friggin DUMBASS. Go cry to your mamma and brush up on your history before bitching about your hurt feelings.

As for the rest of you crybaby hippies. POT WILL NEVER BE LEGALIZED! Hippies have been wishing it would be for nearly 50 years.

Freeing the slaves took a civil war, Civil rights came later, with more pressure, and the leader got shot! Women didn't get the right to vote by asking for it! Angel asked for it, in a state that approved medical use. It is NOT up to congress! It is up to us. Freedom doesn't just happen,If you want it, TAKE IT. Give no quarter, because this is WAR as described by our government! The Drug Enforcement Army is an illegel army deployed on american soil. Using Weapons that are illegel for a citizen to own! They Bust Down Our Doors, Steal Our Property, and Throw Us Into Little Cages! And all in the name of LIBERTY! While we passively pay our taxes and otherwise support this corruption of our ideals of freedom. Just for starters, Don't pay your taxes on April 15th, Wait until April the 20th!! Lets demonstrate our INDEPENDENCE. Demand Freedom! If every American stopped by their local law enforcement office, and confessed to smoking Marijuana, and demanded to be arrested, what would that do to an already overburdened system??? We demand our freedom! Better to rot in jail free, than to be a prisioner on the streets and in our homes. Support your local law enforcement, these people really care about our well-being and safety and do not deserve our contempt, reserve that for the blind government that orders them to harrass otherwise free, law abiding Americans. Reserve your contempt for an outdated legal system, administered by the deaf!
Support L.E.A.P.!

I personally would prefer not her all the detractors in here, though they are all allowed their point of view.

Our government is not evil, and it has not failed us. If anything, we have failed it. Make your voices heard. Do you think the Democrats, the majority in congress, are trying to get us out of Iraq because they want it, or because the people of our great country want it? Vote, write your congressmen, educate yourselves. We can get marijuana legal, but it isn't going to happen sitting at home smoking out. Its going to be done by showing our support for it.

The people suffering of chronic, debilitating illnesses need us. The people in prison serving sentences harsher than the crimes they commited need us. The people who want the peace to follow their own form of religion need us. The people who wish to partake in a relatively harmless substance need us.

Their are worse drugs to be chased down. Their are worse criminals that need to be locked up. We need to let our politicians know how we feel about this issue.

Just because a few states are TOLERANT of marijuanna use DOESN'T change the fact that it is still ILLEAGAL on a FEDERAL level. Growers in California must keep their plantations SECRET because it is still a FEDERAL crime to possess or grow marijuanna! So what, if a few LOCAL authorities are told to IGNORE some pot usage. The FEDERAL authority will still arrest you one a moments notice. POT WILL NEVER BE LEGAL!

I hope I'm "reading" "YOUR" posts correctly. "if you know what I'm sayin'".I actually used to post under the name "Shca Pestora" and to the person who said they would out smoke me, maybe you could. I really don't care. I just think that some of the new lingo is retarded. I've actually just quit smoking pot because I am visually impaired and getting around when your ripped as fuck is really difficult when you lack vision. So, I always felt like a liability when I was hanging out with people and we would be stoned. They said "Dude noone knows your stoned, if you crash in to shit it's because your blind." Well, I'd had enough of those types of comments so I quit. I don't like looking like the helpless blind guy who can't do shit. I just decided that the stoner community would be better off with out me. I do have quite a good relationship with mushrooms though, and I bet I could out eat that person who said they could out smoke me, but fuck that competitive bull shit. I am going to continue to trip because I believe moterit mushroom use is benifisial if the tripper can make sence of the vast amount of new information that is being shown to them. I feel more comfortable on shrooms then I do when stoned. But, hey, just because I'm sittin' out on the circle doesn't mean I'm not still down for the cause. Count me in.

I'd probably grow a plant or two myself, just for the heck of it, but I likely wouldn't mess with indoor growing during the fall and winter and would likely lose interest in growing any outdoors if there was decent quality available for purchase.

I think it would boil down to several factors, what your interests are, and what your time is worth.

I can't even keep an ivy alive and I'm pretty sure that one plant that died on me was an air fern! Yeah, I'd be heading out to the "produce section" just like I do for carrots and I think that there are a lot of people like me who just don't have the time, interest, or patience to mess with it if it's already available.

I worked my ass off for months alongside of coutless other volunteers trying to get this inititive to pass. When it finally came down to voting day i realized what was going to defeat us, sadly enouph it was ourselves. My fellow pot smokers found it to much of an inconvienience to get out and vote or even just get registered. Dispite this disopointing turn of events we still got 44 percent of the vote which is pretty damn good for a first year vote on such an initive. my point is if we rally together we can make this happen.

My notion of a Nation-wide STRIKE leaves EVERYONE to remain at home;spark it up and watch CNN broadcast as the corperate world falls apart and The Government will undoubtablly cave in; making pot-not a CRIME!!PEACEFULLY;QUIETLY, REVOLT AGAINST BUSH AND HIS "WACKY AND INSAINE GOVERNMENT"----win a WAR without EVEN throwing a punch!!---PEACEFUL POTHEADS---Let's show The World that not ALL Americans love Bloodshed and War---UNITE.FIGHT and GO SLOW ON April 20th 2007!!!PROHIBITION NEVER WORKS--Especially with Peaceful Pot-heads like Me and You--Do It in The Name Of "JAH"!!!!!!!

4-20-07 'ey? There's a lot of talk about this "gathering" in front of the whitehouse April 20th of this year. I say let's make it happen. Seriously, we need to take the fight from the internet and put it in to reality. If anyone wanted to argue against legalization all they would need to do is print off a couple pages of comments on articles from this site and high light all the imature rantings like "fuck the government" and "pigs gotta die!". I say we make this march official! Let's prove to the world that we aren't just a bunch of lazy assholes sitting around and just bitching about this countries state of afairs. Lets take action on a mass scail! April 20th 2007 must be a national day of protest. Let's see how many of us motherfuckers actually show up in front of the whitehouse... or at the least organize city or state wide protests! The push for legalization is still week as hell! Let's take this country by storm on April 20th. I'm dead serious about this too. Let's start organizing! Tell all your friends and family members, Let's make some noise, or are you too fucking afraid. It's official.

My hubby and I are ready to meet up with the rest of you in Washing, DC. He has a mass grown around his spinal cord about the size of a grapefruit. The government has denied his SSI for 3 years, Medicaid cut us off with no notice, BWC is supposed to pay medical expenses but they haven't paid a dime and my small salary is just enough to disqualify us from any sort of aid. When his pain meds ran out, the only thing we had available was marijuana. It is the most cost effective pain reliever. He's recovered enough from the lack of Opiates which were administered through a pump under his skin and has malfunctioned because someone where the medicine was drawn up, skimmed off the morphine and added something else. We dont know what that was but it ate up the inside of the pump. So, i'm sending out my letters and joining up!

The stress we've endured the last three years is a nightmare, and without marijuana, we would not have made it this far. The benefit far out weighs the risks.

Count us and our grown kids in, 5 in all!!

The state loves that people keep going to jail because of weed. They collect on the fines but more importantly it lets them justify taking our tax dollars. If all marijuana related crimes were "forgiven" the prisons would be a lot less crowded and the government would have to explain to us where our tax dollars are really going, but this is getting off topic. We need to elect reps that support our cause and take our government back.

Again, K-TOWN makes a good point about the unnessary arresting of decent and non-violent people. But, like Mario stated, talk is cheep and unless were willing to show America that were not lofty layabouts wasting our live than we need to unite on April 20th in front of the White House to show how normal decent people are effected by the ignorance of ancient lawmakers and faciest fatcats! 4-20-07 will be a new day etched in history for the sake of Knowledge and FREEDOM!!!

Regarding the idea that marijuana would be untaxable because it can be grown at home:

I don't think that that would be the case. Walk through the produce section of any grocery store and look at all of the items that we could grow at home, but don't take the time to because they're available on the open market.

in a way Mario Musso is right. just posting a coment on a website is pointless and accomplishes nothing. other people have sudjested marching to Washington D.C. and participating in a peacefull gathering at the Whighthouse. well, if its official i'm willing to attend.

We should Seriously march on to Washington on April 20th (420) and make our voices heard by the whole country!

Feb 11 2007, 12:47 am

Seriously, a million Canabis march at Washington on April 20th would generate attention to our cause from the media. arresting Canabis users does more damage than the drug ever could. it would be easy to tax Canabis by setting up lisenced distributors at Hash bars. it doesn't make sense for people to be punished for using a safe and harmless product for both recriation and religious purposes.

weed will never be legalized for one reason. that reason is because if america legalized weed they would have to find some way to tax it, taxing weed is almost impossible because its a very easy plant to grow and why would you buy it if you could legaly grow it?

Feb 8 2007, 7:34 pm

Just wanted to add that it doesn't help our cause by blaming George Bush. It just makes you sound like an idiot. George Bush has nothing to do with marijuana being illegal, that boat came and gone before he was in office. Our position has to be with numbers, that's how you influence politics. If John Kerry were president we would have the same dumbass leadership. The reason for this is because Americans worship money. We elect representatives that are so far removed from normal society because they are rich assholes. It's not about Democrat or Republican, and many dumbass liberals think that Democrats will change social values of this country. That's not true, it's an illusion that you're buying in to. Republicans cut taxes and take away our freedoms, Democrats raise taxes and take away our freedoms. Nobody is better, and both parties suck.

A dedicated start

Feb 8 2007, 7:26 pm

If enough people were serious about the legalization of marijuana then we have to be organized. How about a march on Washington D.C. with everybody smoking herb (April 20th would be a good day for this). Thinking more outside the box, we could try and organize marijuana users to move to the same location of the country and vote our own representatives into congress. Without extreme measures, we will never get anything accomplished.

The legalization of pot is a good idea but the decrimalization of it makes more sence, seeing how ol' Bush and his band of idiots are not going to go for it they are to busy with the so called "war on terror". WHICH IS A JOKE all in itself!!! I do favor the legalization of it and have for years. I voted in Washington for medical marajuana and it passed so lets get it rollin for all.

All the legislators need is for us to succeed by making them realise there are more of us than threre are of them lots more!! Peace and smoke will reign one we carry on the spirit of truth that, Martin Luther King JR envoked. We must all gather as one nation, one people, with a non-violent million cannibis march on Washington.

alright so i read all of this crap...some of you are on point some of you are just to stoned to get it.....A march and letters would be a great approach along with supporting organizations that share our views...but we are against like others said...big coporations..who dont want to see this happen..pot was made illeagal bacause of racisism and lies...the white people said it caused black men to want white woman...and if you smoked weed you would become a killer and kill your brother...it was spearheaded by a couple of senators and a wealthy man william randolph hearst who had shit load of timber and and harry j anslinger...go google how weed became illegal..but im just warning you its gona make you mad if you like pot...and as far as changing it back to the way it was...prob wont happen as wrong as it is...the gov makes more money off of people paying in fines off of pot then it would trying to tax it or control it...(thats the problem) weed vs beer yeah most of us feel the same....but this is a social thing and an uneducated population...and it seems it just might stay that way..I support NORML though they got the right idea.Some one call philip morris....i know he can get this shit done..lol....ill come back next month to see if anything else worth reading is posted and to see if were gona march on the capitol..(ohh yeah) dont bring anything if we do this i dont care if it would be 4-20 responsibility is a bitch i know

Hi There My Fellow Potheads, I Live In Canada And I Think That Americans And Canadians Alike Should All Individually Send Letters To Any Government Building In Our Area Or Country With A Good Strong debate About The Pros Of Pot, The Uses And Why It Should Be Legalized Worldwide, We Need Pot Legalized, The Government Is Too Busy Locking Up Pot Smokers When they Should Be Worrying About Real Drugs Like Cocaine And Meth And Heroin, Lets All Pitch In Take The Time Too Write A Decent Letter To A Polotic Or A Government Building About Pot Legalization..

alright for starters, i am a pothead. i love pot, i think that the u.s. would greatly benifit legalizing pot. i think we as potheads should unite and really show the government that we don't appritiate being locked up for something that grows in the dirt. i don't see people who drink getting locked up in their own home because they did something that made them feel better. GOD made weed, MAN made the other stuff, who do YOU trust?

Jan 29 2007, 9:56 pm

Dear fellow potheads:
First of all I would like to say that Mary Jane is my savior. I am a very motivated business student who needs a way to relax at the end of the day. Although I too hope that one day we will see the day when POT is legalized, I dont think that writing letters is the way to do it. Our letters and emails are easily discarded. We need a movement such as that of Dr. Kings. By this I mean that every POT smoker, casual or the everyday every hour person, should march on DC and demand reform on our favorite day in April. More than one group of people's have done this in the past and has seen results. Why can't we see the same positive resluts for our cause. LEGALIZATION

nobody

Jan 25 2007, 10:23 pm

Dude you have got to be kidding. You really think that they will be able to tax it. It is called weed for a reason. Its easy to grow. If it was legalized than everybody who smokes would probably start growing so they wouldnt have to pay anyone. Pretty much the only way to legalize it and be able to tax it is sell it in shops like amsterdam, or we can put a tax on a stamp to say you can grow x amount of plants. But they couldnt really enforce that because they wouldnt really know.

Jan 25 2007, 7:16 pm

I dont think that its about being a pot head, its about having and keeping our freedom. I dont think that people understand the consequences of Government ran marijuana. If you think that you are being taxed now by your dealer, wait until the Govenment legalizes it and taxes it. I like the fact of marijuana users not going to jail, but the freedoms of price will change.The tax will be higher than tobacco,alcohol,and gas combined. I would like to atleast start with a new prez.thats going to lessen the penalty of weed offenders,but total legalizaion in this country could mean the price will be hefty. There are ways around this though. The tax could be paid in many different ways, like out of your pay check. But how many non- users will like this. I think the best way for legalization here is the same way we do our welfare. If you smoke , get in line to receive your rations. i dont know what else to say buti am behind this i just think that we have to present it in a way that benefits the government too.

I have smoked an ungodly amount of marijuana in my day, and I have seen nothing but good come from it. To see marijuana legalized in America would fufill every potheads dream. I kno me along with my group of stoners are more than ready to march for what we believe in. I feel the 420 campain is a great idea but it needs to be greatly advertised to reach out to the potheads of America. For many years the government has wasted countless dollars on innocent potheads who r just trying to get a lil bit high. LET US UNITE AND TAKE DOWN THE WHITEHOUSE !!!!!!!

Brandon

Jan 25 2007, 4:18 pm

I am a casual smoker that would love nothing more than to see marijuana legalized. I applaud NORML and the other reform groups as well for supporting this great cause. However, one of the reasons it's still not legal is because most americans are falsely informed on the dangers of marijuana. Brainwashed by the false stereotypes associated with this sticky green substance, many of our citizens are still for prohibition because they are scared half to death by the lies that they were fed about it by the government, press, law enforcement and otherwise. In order to pave the way to demolishing prohibition of this god-given plant, we'd have to inform our citizens about the truth on marijuana, which i'm glad to see is slowly happening. The reason the government is still skeptical about reform is because they would have to admit to a mistake they made nearly 70 years ago when they first started prohibition! If more harmful drugs like tobacco and alcohol are already legal, spending billions of dollars a year to arrest otherwise law-obiding citizens is a bit of a hypocracy on the government's part, don't you think? It's time we take a more legitimate approach and stop spending billions of dollars a year on a war that does no good and start turning marijuana revenues into profit for our communities! Above all, let marijuana be legalized, for medicine, for recreation and for fun!

First off, I would just like to say I love marijuana. One of my favorite things in the world to do is masturbate while I'm toking on my big black bong. That's right people, don't act like you didn't know. I am in love with Mary Jane, but these jokesters up in Washington are a bunch on ninnies. Let us uprise, let us speak, let us win this war. We can do this just remember to beat your meat while you dance on your feet.

We all know marijuana is harmless and should be legal. So, let's do something about it! Make some noise! Demand legalization! Get involved and get other people involved- write to members of Congress, get involved in local efforts, stay informed. Supporters of legalization need to work together and get ORGANIZED! A half-assed effort won't accomplish anything.

it takes 900 joints to overdose in one sitting, there is no proven fact anyone has ever died from pot,ive never seen an unhappy mean person using pot,and yes this should be for people who are resposible, just like those who drink , gamble ,etc. if our govn was smart enough they wouldnt spend all our taxpaying $ for harmless pot smokers. There isnt hardly a human who dies of natural causes, what kind of drug will you use to feel no pain when you die?

I hate the fact that responsible users get arrested and do jail tome for simply smoking reefer...but dont you think that if it was legalized they'd tax the shit out of it? I mean alcohol tax is outragous and lets not even talk about cigarettes....and I dont smoke or drink! I mean it would be nice paying 8 bucks for a "pack" of weed cigarettes (if they were to be legalized and distributed in this manner) but if the sticker on the box before tax say 3.25 Im gonna be pissed...now the governemnt is getting paid for me getting high...I also think having the shit legalized might idk...change things...I think decriminalization with the rights to carry would be much better...as long as the only place you smoke is your home...in that situation you'd be fine!

....I go to a higher level, I think that all drugs should be legal like alchool if you decide to get high you should do it why?If you do it in a safe place do it now everybody knows that driving under any influence is not good and should be hevely punished money and sometimes jail time.
Drugs are something personal some times is good other times is better to do with out it,like religion if you do it in your house ok if you want to have it in the middle of the street u go to jail,no preaching in China Mao said religion was the true opiun of the masses.
One thing I will truly want is to fight for those people that are doing jail time for providing us with the stuff,have your name in a worst kind of shit list.
I spend jail time,my name well is hard to get a regular job,I was traped by the FBI because I knew Mr A and introduced Mrs B and one day the decided to get together and she got hustled to buy Drugs from the FBI sniched a guy convicted for stealing Frank his name from Las Vegas a conected guy that sold his almost 55years to the Feds, and that is why I had to do the time I was 24 at the time now I am 54,I wish I could sue those mother fucker bastards

Have you ever heard of someone getting high and driving their car into a family and killing everyone in the car? no, what about a drunk???how can they condone alcohol and and make it such a crime to smoke some weed and mellow out. I agree with the counter anti pot ads. EDUCATION is the key to the future of marijuana

Dec 25 2006, 3:52 am

I like the idea I read about the constitutional convention.. restart this country the way our forefathers wanted. the problem is that we are wrapped up in this system that requires us to work for a living so we can eat and have shelter over our heads. most americans dont have time to fight a political revolution because of this problem. what we need is for everyone who smokes pot to join NORML for $30.00. And instead of buying a 1/4 sack of weed for once just donate the 100$ to them. If we did that, then NORML would have 100 million dollars and could buy back our rights. SO GO TO WWW.NORML.COM and join!!!

Dec 25 2006, 3:46 am

the sad thing is that it is really hard to get a politician to listen to you when they are taking bribes from legal drug companies, drug testing companies, counseling firms, etc. our government is corrupt. they keep people dumb so they can control them. and they scare people out of speaking up. so everyone speak up and email your congressman. tell them to reform the marijuana laws! tell them this war on drugs has only created a vast underground market where children can profit from selling pot! legalize it!

Tired of these kinds of same old tactics-- there must be a more effective way. We need more public education on the issue, such as taking out ads to counter anti-pot ads (an incredible waste of money). A great ad campaign with star power would be helpful. Stress the economic advantage (being able to tax it) and such. Finally more people who don't necessary look like hippy stoners need to get involved to make the public understand that people who enjoy marijuana come in all kinds of packages.

Being an american, I understand how we all sit while big business/big government takes over. We have been selling our own people down the river here. Anything for profit. Thing I feel is we need a different set of morals, but with the arabs , asians, mexicans and blacks, and what ever else has invaded the USA due to government involvement... How do we get along? How can we work together? These are third world people who are destroying my country! I try and call officals and get kissed off. Just sit back and see the big flash in the sky thats coming. I mean what the f is going on on this planet? Help people dont give them my country. Everyone here is a lil bitch and cant speak the truth!. Dont see me coming to canada for free health care on your bill! Free hand outs in the USA, back stabbing Americans who are too lazy to clean their yards or clean their homes. Working illegally and without a permit is okay but hemp is the crazy mans drug and you make get locked up. Great deal eh? Thios whole world has gone mad!@

Dec 19 2006, 2:06 am

Some posters on this topic have expressed a defeatist outlook on the legalization of the ganja. Anyone who smokes weed should make their voices heard. Many don't. The reasons are varied, and while some are understandable, they all hurt the cause of legalization, and it is this dam of unspoken voices that is the needed catalyst for change.

Bending over 4 Bush

Dec 19 2006, 1:29 am

are u kidding? Cannabis be legal? How? Why? Americans have the DEVIL for a KING. Congress has absolutly no cojones. 1 out of every 35 adults in this country is on probation, parole, and in PRISON!!!!!!! 49% of which are NONviolent drug offenders!!!!!!!!!!

Big business people! all this country cares about is stripping away your now so-call FREEDOMS, fucking the common man in the ass (5.05 federal minimum wag), and giving big business anything they want. example....ENRON, 2 BILLION a DAY for a so-call war on TERROR in IRAQ. Bush is the biggest terrorist by FAR and the american people are soo DUMB they elected him twice. How can we legalize herb when we elect a MORON for president/ KING.
... and just as a side. I was at YALE and PERSONALLY smoke a HUGE PHATTY BOWL with BARBARA BUSH , the Presidents Daughter!!!! Oh , its true. How do I know it was her? Cause she was the one who PASSED the BOWL to ME!!!!!!!!!!! Figure that one out.

I'll probably have the FEDS at my door in 5 minutes because of thier ILLEGAL and UNCONSTITUTAL surveillance and wire-taps. But hey why worr, I now in AMERICA could be locked up forever without a lawyer or any recourse..aka military combantant. Which ALL of us are..the dangerous Cannabis Terrorists!

It's all there for the taking. We have the power to hit the reset button. Our fore fathers left us this (power) incase of our government becoming corrupted, large and cumbersome.

Dec 11 2006, 12:05 pm

the government should legalize pot because it really is like the safest drug on the planet theres no way you can overdose on it i mean you could smoke a pound to yourself everyday and not overdoes sure you'll probably eat a shitlload of and go to sleep after but you wont die i mean come on pot is safer than alcohol if you take a sobriety test when your drunk your gonna fail it but if you are high theres no way your gonna mess up and say someone bought a case of beer their gonna drink all of it and then say someone gets an ounce of pot there going 2 smoke some and get high and save the rest for later and i know that weed does not affect your vision or your reflexes or of all cases does not make you dumb because i know the same stuff i did when i was a little kid and i still learn things and can remember people just say these kind of things because that was the first critiscm that potheads got ohhh im stoned im hungry im tired uhh i mean its stupid i smoked weed before id play baseball and i did just fine i mean i was the best on the time and ive never crashed my vehicle when i was stoned or did anything stupid when i was stoned so the fact of the matter is weed is the safest drug in the worl you can never overdoes throw up after smoking or anything sure ive heard of people getting a headache but wow who hasn't had a headache but alright im outta here ohh and a word 2 the government LEGALIZE MARIJUANA ITS NEVER HURT ANYONE OR KILLED ANYONE so remember everyone pot is safer than crack,cocaine, and any other hard drug

Most of the ideals in these individual's postings are on strange tangents or off topic. How many readers plan on writing your representitive asking their stance? Could you imagine what they would think if every pot smoker asked; Without adding their views on religion, the dea or ufos? Imagine a flood of 100,000 letters asking repressentives what their stance is. If they don't have a good awnser, chances are they would rethink aafter recieveing interest from so many voters. I'm tired of listning to these far out ideals and responses i get from asking people why they think bud should be legal. Often times it ends up just like the many posts, things i won't remember. Its time we all do something, send a 40 cent letter with just 1 question. If you wish to go into rants and raves about jibberish and the government's tom foolery email me svopower@mail.com, but this time next month i probably won't remember. And by the way, the QUran is the ultimate book of wisdom

common sense

Dec 10 2006, 9:46 pm

You realize that the government of the united states is against common sense. OF COURSE cannibis should be legal. The dumbest idea EVER is make it and keep it illegal.
As far as facts are concerned there is absolutely no question.

Just so you know ALL AMERICANS that the DEA and the current FEDERAL drug laws and drug classifications are done by an appointed...yes UNelected sector of the federal government.

FREEDOM?????????????

You ARE NOT! NOT EVEN CLOSE!

Dec 10 2006, 4:00 pm

there are many different reasons why pot should be leagalized. But, if i sat down and said every reason,this page would be 50,000 pages long. Pot has never hurt anyone. Its tobacco. I think since every does it, might as well make it legal. Because once you start you never leave it, because is one of the best herbs on this plant. God put it here for a reason why waste it.

Dec 9 2006, 8:02 pm

Sorry, I did't finish so a few more points for legalization in Nevada (or anywhere). After it's legal (cough!) they need state controls and employees to regulate (as we do here for gambling and prostitution) and control "it" to keep it on the up and up. That's going to create jobs (good state jobs) which in turn helps the economy and yada,yada... but that was never brought up before the election. The economic boom that this state turned down may have been huge. Just like when they legalized gambling. Not everyone came at first but in a few years they built Vagas on it. So we need it in one state first then the rest will fall just like gaming when they see they are missing out on CASH. All of the other auguments are true but money talks. Sad but true.

Hopefully it will happen before I die! In 1965 I said it would be legal by 1975. Dah!

Moldy

Dec 9 2006, 6:26 pm

Ah, big point missed in many of the opinions... MONEY! In Nevada our bill missed by 6% of the vote. Why? Because the money that could be generated was not going to go to the places in govenment that has the power to brain wash the voters.
1) Law enforcement 2) County bugets 3) Repulicrats (indirectly) You see, you don't ask to have it legalized, you make them an offer they can't refuse and that's CASH. Everything else like the truth, science, etc. comes after cash. So, the deal here was every ounch sold would have a $45.00 state tax that much of it would go to drug rehabilitation treatment. Why SHIT, we don't need that cause we are not addicts. Wonder if anyone will guess how much the state would bring in? In Vegas with all the tourist trade, etc... I would guess 2500 oz. a day, a good guess? Then in Reno, Tahoe, and the rest of the state another 2500 oz.? Okay that's 5000(oz.) X $45.00= $225,000.00 income a day. WOW..or 82 million a year. That is what needs to be pointed out!!

First off this isn't church and none of you are making a damn bit of religious sence. WE ARE TRYING TO LEGALIZE MARIJUANA AND YOU ARE ALL TALKING LIKE ACID CAKES IN A PADDED ROOM! All I would have to do is publish the stupid postings some people put on here and weed would never be legal. To the other people who actually read and comprehend these articles someday we will see victory over a corrupted government. To the rest have fun posting crap.

Im back! Annunaki

Dec 9 2006, 2:24 am

You are funny and make me laugh at times first off. Second I am smoking some dank ass Blueberry Cola, you need to try some! Third off heaven , hell, etc.. Is a big subject. I feel there are aliens who come to earth and have been here for a long time. You say I am a nutjob? No more than NASA saying we landing on the moon. Of UFO's dont exist yet I have Photos of US airforce working on them. The Annunaki are devils who served a higher power, eg God and turned away from his will, eg God. God is the Creator of all things and without him there would be nothing. You explain where everything came from smart ass. Well new ideas are always laughed at I guess. Why dont you read before you say something stupid! Read a book, I suggest the Vedas, or the book of the dead. I think people tended to be more honest when the books I mentioned where written.
Also smoke some blueberry before, so you can expand your mind and be open to the stories. Are you open minded or only believe what you want to believe?

wasnt a lot of our musical artists under the influence of marijuana when they wrote such great songs? do you actually believe that none of our forefathers were smoking weed when they made such "great" decisions for our country?

wise up ass holes out there who dont want this...this could actually be what our nation needs...so why are you trying to stop it?

yep

Dec 8 2006, 5:26 pm

by the way , 49% of all of the 7 million imprisioned and probationed Americans are that way because of non-violent drugs offenses. Jail is big business, man. Think about that after a nice big toke, will you, you dangerous ganja terrorists

true true

Dec 8 2006, 5:22 pm

Fairytales is right on , man
You all realize that there is no heaven or hell. No God or the Devil. These all things that are Man-made beleifs that in the court of reality dont stand up for shit. The only thing we have in this world is each other. Like it or not, we are all that we've got. So we can take care of each other or we cankill each other over pure semantics, bullshit, and fairytales.

You all realize that the Bible , the Koran , and every other supposed "book of the word of god" were all written by men, just plain people like you and me. People with opinions and agendas all their own.
We can either live together in peace and harmony, or we can listen to all these supposed books of the word of God and kill and hate each other. just like it instructs us to do. Take your pick. But do it after you smoke a big phatty first.

Dec 7 2006, 9:23 pm

It's nice to say yeah, we need to legalize it now, but what is that accomplishing? I believe that the only way you're going to make the government and the people understand is by all coming together in D.C. right in their face. If every person who cares about cannabis or cares that cannabis prohibition is destructive and wrong got together in the same place, it should be big enough that nobody could ignore it. I say there's no better time than 420 to all come together to tell the government that we won't take it anymore, and take back the freedom that was fought so hard for in the first place.

Annunaki

Dec 7 2006, 4:00 pm

Annunaki are real! wake up people. Gen 25 read it!
It also states why God sent the flood. Humans and Aliens were breeding and screwed up our DNA. It also says that we huumans were "Fair" this means light skinned and or beautiful. The syrians are the lost tribe, read about Abraham's son Jaccob and how he would become a people! Syrians are aryans! The Jews lie and are not Gods people but sons of the devil! These Annunaki aliens are devils and breed with the jews that is why hitler was so interested in the jews. Is the truth hidden from the Aryan People/ Gods True People? or does it all just happen to all fit together??

Wait up people!

Dec 7 2006, 3:44 pm

Okay it all soundds good, but I have 2 questions to pose to all of you. #1 Perhaps
a full out assult could bring a side of government attention we do not need, government may be happy with partial legalization but not nation wide. Reason is.. access to cannabis for people we deem "undesirable." #2 is what is the stance of cannabis? Why should it be made 100% legal? Will you use tobacco and other such products that are legal to show cannabis is less harmful or less addicting, or even show to have real antibacterial and seditive effects and is not a depressent? Will the Government stop lying? will they say that cannabis does have real healing properties? That is like asking the Government to admit Roswel really did have a crashed UFO. zHello !! anyonee else on the same page as me? But Go for it if you think you can win, doubt it! It's the government of crooks!

Only1Test~I~CantPass

Dec 6 2006, 10:49 am

This shit is a really big deal. The issue is way bigger than legalization. What we need to do is push for harm reduction types of drug policy. This would mean lots of things would have to change. Harm reduction drug policy is designed to remove the harms caused by drugs beyond their own innate dangers. This is the type of policy in the Netherlands and other places in western Europe. It would also mean more treatment options for drug abusers, no punishment for possession of small amounts, some type of legal access for some or all drugs. The idea is to not target the user, but to focus on the trafficking. The Netherlands also siezes nearly half the weed siezed in all of europe every year. So, learn about harm reduction. And every motherfucker under 35 better start to fuckin vote and get involved in local government. We can make changes fast in local government if we can get together as young people and make it happen. Under 35, there are more non-voters than voters, this is fucked up. Not even half the total voice of young people is not being heard in a national election. If young people take over local governement everything can change. We are weed smokers, we need a grassroots approach. Know what I mean? Read "Drug War Heresies" by Robert MacCoun and Peter Reuter. Smokin weed isn't a choice if your just livin your life and I don't care if it's still technically illegal as long as I can have as much as I want in my crib and I can't get busted unless I was selling it. But wouldn't we just give it away?

Dec 6 2006, 9:13 am

It really pisses me off that I can't go to the corner store and buy it like I would beer. I am a pot smoker. I don't like the way alcohol makes me feel!! Marijuana is not the one that sould banded!!If you ask me alcohol should! How many times have you heard of some man or women getting high and killing people or beating their children to death becuase of weed? It just doesn't happen!! Pot smokers are layed back people, we don't harm anyone we actually are very happy people. Now, I'm not saying that kids should have access to it. It should have a age like alcohol. We are the U.S.A. were we are to be givin a choice....Right? Were's my choice?

YES,we need to act... the Governments war on drugs is every bit as inportant as the Iraq war,I believe the drug WAR is bigger than the Iraq war.....And it needs to be turned into a big HUGE issue one they can not ignore for the up comeing 08' elections. So that in the 08' elections the Lies of the drug war that need to be exposed do not get ignored due to the Iraq war....The Governments drug war is WAY BIGGER than the Iraq war...at this point in time the drug war has lasted WAY longer than any other war and has WAY more INVOLUNTARILY CASUALTIES....WE AS AMERICAN SHOULD BE OUTRAGED AND DEMAND OUR RIGHTS BACK ! THE TIME IS NOW ! LETS MAKE THE LEGALIZATION OF CANNABIS ONE OF THE SINGLE MOST BIGGEST ISSUE THIS UP COMEING ELECTION OF 08'.DRUG WAR = Social Dysfunction....WAKE UP AMERICA ! the government is dictating to much of your lives.IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE THIS WAY....PEACE OUT...
