Willie Nelson Looking to Music to Get Marijuana Laws in Texas Relaxed

Thu, Aug 09, 2007 1:40 am

source: kcentv.com

A fundraising concert this week in Central Texas highlights a topic many aren't comfortable talking about: marijuana.

Willie Nelson is using music and some star power to push for relaxing Marijuana laws.

Nelson said the proceeds from Friday’s Freedom Fest Concert in Austin will be given to four marijuana reform groups.

Willie’s argument is far from getting the attention of Texas lawmakers.

Since 1995, 12 states have legalized marijuana for medicinal use.

Texas is not one of them.

"I’d like to see it taxed and regulated and looked upon as nothing more or less dangerous than alcohol or cigarettes," Nelson said.

Concert promoters have been focusing on the music, and have barely mentioned the marijuana benefit.

Wahoo Willie! I wish he would come together with a few other musicians,even if it is other syles of music, and headline a yearlong 54 State concert to promote Legalizing Pot and at the same time handing out pot info at the venues.You know the topic would be geting coverage EVERYWHERE out in the REAL public and not just the web.But he'd deffintlly have to not carry any weed on him for the whole year.Its coming people. Nostradomis predicted it by 2010 and all of his predictions have come true on or within 4 yrs of his set dates!

I must say Willie Nelson is the man , I really look up to this great man and all the things he has done to try and get this plant legalized in this backwards country. I wish he could speak up on the rest of the states here in the U.S. We really need it legalized U.S. citizens need to come out of the closet and confess there love for this plant a.s.a.p. I am getting sick of the high prices we have to pay in the northeast for some good bud ! POWER 2
THE PEOPLE! LEGALIZE IT ! So we can all be in peace.

i really look up to willie nelson for what he's doing for the marijuana movement. i wish more celebrities would be more outspoken about it. the more mainstream it gets, the better chance we have at the lawmakers relaxing the laws

Weed is way less harmful than "stupid juice" or "coffin nails".
And why is it that Willie seems to be the only person(celebrity) doing this? Why not Snoop,Korn,KMK, and all the other famous musicians that toke up?
Many voices can be heard than just one.
