Profiles in Cannabis: Rob Van Dam

NORML is proud to confirm that former World Wrestling Entertainment heavyweight champion Rob Van Dam will be speaking at the 2009 NORML National Conference in San Francisco, CA.

 

Rob Van Dam has amazed audiences around the world with his athleticism and martial arts skills. Throughout his wrestling career, Rob Van Dam rarely hesitated to voice his affection for cannabis — even coining the popular catch-phrase, “4:20 means I just smoked your ass.” In 2006 he reached the pinnacle of his profession, winning the WWE world heavyweight championship.

 

He was eventually stripped of the title later that year following his arrest for minor marijuana possession.  Since leaving pro wrestling he has appeared in numerous television shows and action films, as well as hosting his own online series RVD TV.  Rob Van Dam is open about his marijuana use and the need to reform America’s cannabis laws, frequently discussing the issue on his live radio show.

 

“Our federal government prohibited this organic plant based on lies, continues to classify it among the most dangerous drugs to validate billions in funding pointless agendas, and denies it’s medical value, causing countless lives to suffer needlessly,” he says.  “How can anyone not care?”

 

Rob will be participating an all-star panel discussion at this year’s conference pertaining to the use of cannabis among top athletes.  Says Rob: “How about we stop ignoring the fact that World Champion athletes who take their health extremely seriously sometimes choose to use marijuana? Why are we ignoring the message there?”

 

RVD says, “Yes we cannabis” and so should you! Meet Rob and hundreds of other like-minded people at NORML’s 38th annual conference, taking place September 24-26 at the Grand Hyatt in downtown San Francisco. For registration information, please visit: http://www.norml.org/conference.

fill in the blanks RETARD form

Sep 10 2009, 11:49 am

todays fill in the blank racial/religious/sexual slurs...you can mix and match them like the mental retard does. it switched from jews to catholics....from blacks to italians....from lesbians to the bush daughters. It's either a)microchips b)radiation c)polluted food/drinking water. It's like playing that game where the spaces are left blank and you fill in the racial slur/religious hate/homophobic comments. it goesa something likethis: The ------(fill in the name of an evil government agency) is poisioning all the -------(fill in the blank with whatever sect of islam this goatherder follows)which is perpertrated by ----------(fill in the blank:lesbians, jews, gottis, catholics,clintons ) and then finish it off with a good ole fashioned threat like i'll hurt all the -----------(fill in the balnk spielberg, 50 cent, porn stars,tandy ect.) Now we all have a fill in the blank retard comment sheet to paste in every single high time article. Articles about weed, the police state, the war on drugs....perfect place to rant and rave about the most fucking whacked out retarded shit one moron can come up with. Gotta love the moderators on here! doing their job.

Pussy Italians, no guns

that "we do not condone torture" is Karen Tandy's policies in North America for England and Saudi Arabia to please their heads with homicide with oxided nuclear and biological substances, if you didn't know now you know North America is split between Saudi Arabia with the Bush Sr and The queen of england with Bill Clinton those states control the french, italians, russians, and all other homosexual states around the world. Democracy is in danger with those dictators and their trillions they spend on torture of all kinds to please their useless offsprings. I will fight till i die and or till i murder. I will always hate politics and their countries that use it. 6 rules, 5 sucks asshole. The Gotti's, Sopranos, rap, porn and everyone else works for the IA'S and your threats means absoulutly nothing because like little kids you need permission and if not your whole race gets wiped out. TEST IT AND SEE, YOU GOVERNMENTS FEED OFF THE CANADIAN WHOS WORTH MORE THAT THE WHOLE WORLD TOGETHER.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ITALY, TALK THROUGH YOUR ASS AGAIN, ABSOULUTLY NOTHING.

My respect to RVD and other athletes who are not afraid to admit their cannabis use. Really wish I could attend the conference this year. Sounds like it's going to be a very interesting event with so many celebs attending and speaking out.
Free The Weed. Free The People.

The reason athletic people prefer to smoke pot than use alcohol is because alcohol is about the worst thing you can do to your body. If you want to store lots of body fat drink up. Your body treats alcohol as a toxin a poison when you ingest alcohol switches to fat storage and shots off other functions to put all its effort into eradicating the poision you just put in your body. Which is why I wish i could smoke pot but I know no one who does and can never find it. End the bull shit and legalize it.
