View Full Version : Think of the message being sent to the kids?
http://www.cpop.org/images/no_war_on_drugs_50x50.gif
How many more kids must we sacrifice before DEAth lies stop?
The poisons eradicating the hemp, does more harm than smoking a bong, and removing hemp ditchweed doesn't do a whole hellava lot for the kids finding cheap white powders profiting the same chemical and lab equipment supplies.
Is prison sodomy really the Christian way to repentance? Religious drug treatment, preachers and cops still dealing with medical issues for the drug cartels listed on the Dow Jones. While Physicians are persecuted for doing their jobs. Blackmailed by AMA Protection Rackets and DEAth threats if they even mention, let alone say its ok. More Pharmaid salesmen and women in Doctors waiting rooms than patients. All with built in side effects as an added Christmas bonus. If they don't work try something else. A long list before "natural" is even brought up.
And if it works, so what. Its just anecdotal. Reality has nothing to do with maintaining dysfunction. Only "drugs" can cure an ill, if it cures its a drug. If its a drug it must be tested by the FDA, unless its a cannabis product, either hemp or Ganja. Then its by sole permission of the drug czar. And then its only with mediocre schwag grown on a Military base. So the homegrown that works is illegal. And since all these millions of folks were getting relief from an illegal drug, they had built more prisons. Now that industry houses 2 million, sells them food paid with tax dollars and blankets and lawyers and the mahogany bench and marble buildings built to keep up.
The petrol chemical based or maintained commodities presently forced on the citizens as alternatives to natural organic Sacramental Ganja meds and hemp food, fuel and fiber make billions a year perpetuating the poisoning. Kids play in the dirt sprayed from the sky with contaminants running off into the water the pregnant woman just drank. Aborting more unborn than these Operation Rescuers claim Planned Parenthood does. Neuro illness also running rampant since the inception of fossil fools and Ganja prohibition. Maybe a coincidence but then someone made the trillion spent arresting Ganja users. Prevention and intervention, treatment and eradication. Confiscation forfeitures all provide incentives to maintain this war. Nothing to help the kids taking away after school programs to poison song birdseed.
Hemp paper and wood products will let the kids have woods to explore. Instead of a crack pipe out of boredom. Since bong stash cost more than Gold. Trees clear cut instead of making fresh air removing CO2 producing oxygen and filtering water given free but DEAth can't see or doesn't care. Frothing zealots Souter and John Waldo's working hard to sell their product war paraphernalia. Tax shelters for spare change to fund PDFA this is your egg on drugs commercials. 2 mil $$$ during the supperbowl, in between 30 second spots of those twins selling Miller, Ganja's cousin hops.
Veggie oil or soldier kids dying in the sand? Plastic goes to landfills now what's wrong with biodegradable? Car parts and clothing from Mid West farmers instead of raping Alaska for two years worth of lead and sulfur pollution crude we don't want anyway.
So DEAth mongers don't like clean air for kids for some reason, clean water bothers and trees must be ugly and imperfect or something? Believing in Geeeeeezus plants from mamon, idolatry at its worst. The Jesus I've heard of, didn't build any churches or hold any titles or charge any fee. Instead of war to convert he wiped the dust off his hemp rope sandals and left without argument. Take it or leave it. Nothing written in best sellers. Or forced on the kids. Nothing he ever mentioned about his mom being a Virgin. No special robes or did he wear a solid gold cross from his neck. Blessing the starving as he drives by. How many meals would it buy?
The pope and the fascist back by popular demand. As long as the fauxnews reports it as such. As long as they report what's wrong and what's right. We can spend our time with more important things. O'Really FEAR factors and Home Despot improvement.
The government said we should chow down with meat by products, bread and pasta and tons of sugar. Reagan tried to help the kids making Ketchup a vegetable. Hiding tumor research and hemp History. Now Science says Ganja relieves Alzheimer symptoms. Nancy just said NO, it might send the wrong message.
Hempseed, the most nutritional food source can not be grown in the US cause the meat and grain industry and their chemical buds said to Klintoon, How bad you want to win? Bush continues the farce taking large sums of cash from fossil fools poisons, appointing large sums of their x employees to not enforce what they can't gut with legislation. To dole out contracts in spite of past records, as long as they mandatory pisstaste so the labs can collect more millions. Kids losing tuition assistance for life if its positive. Won't stop the hardrugs that wash out in a day or so. Only the metabolites of cannabis that aren't harmful in the first place. Or do they indicate when a person used. Inebriation testing won't treat employees like prisoners.
Medicine is best left to patients and doctors and nurses and caregivers. Not vested interest profiteers stealing billions of tax dollars and hundreds of Constitutional infractions and child molestation of their delicate minds with flat out lies and teaching them to snitch on their parents and neighbors. How low life is it when kids die for lazy DEAth liars. Or lose their house and parents cause they did the "right thing". The religious right maybe. How many patients would really give up drugs from the store for a weed that didn't work? How many times must some one smoke a joint without any incidents or mishaps before someone witnesses it? How many kids will die from cigarettes spiked with thousands of corporate chemicals behind prohibition? Chemicals when ignited do damage organic tobacco doesn't. Or organic Ganja.
Yet they compare the hundreds of thousands dead from cigarettes, thousands from aspirin and illegal drugs, tens of thousands from booze and Pharmaceuticals and not a one overdosing from Ganja. Compare what? I think St Francis said to go out and find food for the hungry, medicine for the sick and dying, shelter and heat for the homeless, clothing for the naked, and a peaceful alternative to chemical booze products whipping up Nationalists to kill other parents kids for oil, with chemical defoliant agents and depleted uranium. But what would the message be to the kids?

'It's Just a Plant' takes the fight for NORML drug laws to a young audience.
Since its very seed, this children's book about marijuana (yes, you read correctly) was meant to spark discussion: between parents and children and between government and citizens. And it successfully accomplishes that, in spades: "An outrage," says Entertainment Weekly. "A delightful book ... a glimpse of what enlightened drug education could be," says Dr. Andrew Weil.

Could the human body's own "marijuana" hold the key to a healthy and happy childhood? Scientists in Israel have posed the question, and their answer may surprise you. Recently, researcher Ester Fride of the Behavioral Sciences Department of Israel's College of Judea and Samaria published a pair of scientific papers stating that the brain's cannabinoid receptors (receptors in the brain that respond pharmacologically to various compounds in cannabis as well as other endogenous compounds) and the naturally occurring messenger molecules that activate and bind to them (so-called endocannabinoids) "are present from the early stages of gestation" and may play "a number of vital roles" in human prenatal and postnatal development.

Marijuana never kicks down your door in the middle of the night. Marijuana never locks up sick and dying people, does not suppress medical research, does not peek in bedroom windows.

Pervasive and insidious toxicological experiments are being conducted on our nation's children, warned authors of a national report issued by the Greater Boston Physicians for Social Responsibility (GBPSR). One million children in the United States already have blood lead levels of 10 mgrams/dL or above, which can affect their behavior and cognition. Among children examined in one study, 90% had a metabolite of the neurotoxic pesticide chlorpyrifos present in their urine. And, according to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates, 1.16 million women of childbearing age eat sufficient amounts of mercury-contaminated fish to pose a risk of harm to their future children.

Be honest with kids about drugs
Oregonian Monday, March 07, 2005
http://tinyurl.com/426on
I was greatly concerned by Kathleen Parker's column regarding President Bush's lack of honesty in discussing his "possible prior drug use" ("Bush tapes: With friends like these . . .," Feb. 23).
Part of acting like a grown-up means telling the truth when it is vital to do so.
Honest, open lines of communication are crucial in providing our children with the best means possible to avoid the dangers around them. Yet problems with drug abuse persist because well-intentioned parents like George W. Bush and Parker close down this necessary parenting tool in order to "protect their children."
What they are doing is creating a system of distrust for authority and a recognition of hypocrisy that damages further communication.

Being honest with kids about drugs. 7 Mar 2005
Hello. I am Dianna Davis and I had sent in a letter to this board asking for donations to help with my families crisis. I just want to put in my opinion concerning the discussion of being honest with kids about drugs. My husband and I were honest with our children about our use of marijuana for medical reasons. We sat down with the 3 oldest children and explained to them that we did use marijuana, but that we only did so for medicinal reasons; that the marijuana helps me to live a fully functional life outside of a wheelchair and that it keeps Eddie from having epileptic seizures which could potentially kill him or leave him permanently disabled as well as helping him to deal with the chronic pain that he lives with daily.
(We did not include our youngest son in this conversation because we felt that he was too young to understand.) We did not use the marijuana in front of our children, but felt that we needed to talk to them about it because they were asking questions. Now we are being ostracized because of our use of the marijuana. Our schools teach our children how bad all drugs are and that there is no medical use for any drug, including marijuana. Then add in the other parent putting only God knows what in their minds, and here we are!
I agree that parents should be honest with their children about drugs. But, I understand that it is very hard to be honest when you face something like this happening. We had thought that our children would understand and see our side, but we were evidently wrong. I still feel that we were right in being honest with our children and I hope that someday our government realizes how much harm is done by prohibition, not only in wasting taxpayers money locking up non-violent offenders but in destroying families with the lies that are told to back up the reasons for the prohibition.
Just my 2 cents worth!

States are required to spend their incentive payments on Child Welfare programs. Family Preservation and Reunification services have a federal cap so the only area left in which to spend the excess of funds is on creating more terminations and adoptions. It stands to reason that states would use the money to create more adoptions so that they will be entitled to a hefty bonus check again next year. Incentive payments were supposed to move ‚"unadoptable‚" children out of foster care and into permanent homes. Yet two years after passing, the number of children in foster care has greatly increased. While adoptions have also increased, they have not
been enough to counteract the rising foster care rates. The socalled ‚"unadoptable‚" children remain in foster care while infant and toddler adoptions increase. In short, states are taking more young children from families needlessly in order to raise their adoption numbers and ‚"get paid".
Rising adoption numbers have created a false illusion of success when in reality, there are more "unadoptable‚" children in foster care today than there were two years ago, prior to the passing of this law. We‚'ve all heard about the adoption incentive payments states receive under
the Adoption and Safe Families Act for each child that is adopted out. But exactly how do they work? What must states do in order to earn these payments? And, what do states do with the
money?
In general, states earn $4,000 for each child that is adopted from foster care and an additional
$2,000 for each ‚"special needs‚" child. These pay ments are capped at $20,000,000 per state, which equals 5,000 adoptions.

Lot of good information, I read it everyday, and you talk a lot about why we need to make a difference, but at this point in time the more important question is how? Done the NORML thing, will be hitting up as many protests as I can, signed all the petitions I could, made donations, but there has to be something more... the legalization of pot is regressing more than its progressing and there are people working very hard. What else can we do? You have all the reasons why we should.

the one problem of legalising marijuana that sticks is the problem of having people stoned all the time. there is no way of really knowing whether a person is stoned, objetively. no beath test.
we need more publicising. how often do you see promarijuana on the streets or in the media? we need someone to pay for the airpace and get marijuana promoted.
we need people to understand the real benefits of marijuana.
how many people do you think know of all the uses of hemp products? ill tell you how many: ive never spoken to anyone who is remotely as informed as I am, from just reading the internet. im always having to spell it out to people. its fuckin annoying caus heaps of people dont believe that practially all fibres were once made of it, its like the most nutritionous seed/nut, its oil can even be used for fuel, for rubbers, it eradicates other weeds, etc

StonerBill, I know how you feel.
I don't know anybody that knows anything about it.
When I tell people there are over 25,000 different
products that can be made from hemp they look at
me like I am from a different planet. When I tell them that
every single product made from crude oil including every
form of plastic known to man can be made from hemp seed
and it is biodegradable they think I'm high! Which I probably am!
But I am also right. Hemps biggest problem is its usefullness.
If you went to Sears and bought a 6 pack of socks made from hemp,
you could wear one pair at a time, wash and rewear that same pair
every day for a year and it wouldn't wear out. You still have 5 years
worth of socks in your drawer. That doesn't do much for repeat business.
Now fuel is a different story. That pisses me off. We always need that.
I'm all for hemp powered vehicals. I want a bumper sticker that says:
MY CAR SMOKES POT!
Yours should too.
Anyway, I could go off on this forever as I am sure you could too.
I just wanted to let you know you are not alone.
Billbeau
Marijuana makes you passive and happy....illegal.
Alcohol makes you angry and aggressive........legal.
Someone explain this to me.
Drunk driving provides profits to fossil fools used in the ambulances, tow trucks and ER. Liver and brain damage profits drug makers. Fights profit band aids and medical supply companies. And the tech support, doctors, staff, administration and its all taxed.
We are the wealthiest nation from war, disease, crime and the occasional natural disaster. Selling war paraphernalia, disease treatment, manufactured crimes like the Ganja prohibition and delaying relief and preventing prevention exponentially increases the recovery profits.
Disposable housing and another great displacement of inner city citizens evacuated into the instant neighborhoods popping up throughout farm land, at least in CA. Like the great migration bringing the country folk into the cities to build the sky scrapers and bay bridges then a welfare state housing and feeding generations of unemployed.
Deterrents like homelessness and joblessness keep whistle blowers at bay, and talk of raising wages and health bennies for the kids goes to the back burner when you're a paycheck away from joining them.
The media (ha) spinning propaganda selling us all out the same as the systematic removal of rights by the government protecting vested interest over citizens.
Cannabis food is a threat to the meat and grain and pesticides and herbicides and fertilizers made from natural gas. Contaminated water means selling more bottles. Cannabis biomass fuel and fossil fool replacement for lubrication and salves and body lotions.
Cannabis fiber doesn't require 90 million pounds of petro chems like the yearly cotton crop. Sprayed onto pregnant women causing more abortions than Roe vs Wade.
Ganja meds instead of over the counter and hard core white powders. All with their fillers and binders and colors and molds for the thousands of shapes sold to those with dead tree prescriptions. All with side effects, meaning even more profits treating what should be prevented or cured. Like what them dumb commies did with the polio, removing tons of taxable profits in braces and buckles and wheel chairs and more drugs.
The booze industry and all its paraphernalia to churn out inebriation. Each mountain top strip mined for the large vats of brew. To the hours the delivery trucks stuck in traffic will still burn crude based diesel fuel. The aluminum cans and its toxic by products will just bring more profits on down the line, treating the newest victim of living the Bushit Mercan dream.
Incarceration selling like hotcakes. Providing orange jumpsuits alone brings small fortunes to tax paying corporations. The food, beds and tooth brushes times 2 million and counting. Most victimless growing pot or possessing illegal substances.
Making a mockery of the weights and standards and physical sciences scheduling Ganja as a #1 class narcotic. Like arbitrarily making 13 inches a foot or 11 to cut expenses. 14 ounces in a pound would save space. If we treat these known properties politically, as done with Ganja. The next $4 gallon of gas we buy might only be 3 quarts and a pint. They lie about Ganja and include hemp in their fabrications. Who is to say what else they feel a need to protect us from truth. Body counts and money laundered for Iran Contras or vengeance on uncooperative x CIA operatives. Haliburton to rebuild the Newest Orleans.
So instead of keeping traumatic memories from victims of these fascist projects with Ganja, Bush and his Military Madness will push treatment Pharmaids to hook future clients. With their side effects and booze in-between. Another generation of sheep will graze on whats given. Herding us through a maze of red herrings to keep us gripped with drama and anger, but mostly confusion.
Look at this like the Christians to Jesus. The opposite of what the perception looks like. Jesus never read the bible or wore a cross around his neck. Never ran a church. Never spare changed on Sunday or cast stones on political opponants. Never begged to be heard, or forced his message on anyone. Wipe the dust off your hemp rope sandals, turn and split the scene he said. He never owned mass communication firms. Or charged to heal the sick. The Archeological finds says the incense in the temples he taught was made with hashish, I suppose he inhaled at least once and was definitely in possession. Now possessing like Klintoon or Bushit Kerry and Gore bring hundreds of thousands in yearly stats and profits.
The Untied State of Anemica thrives on the rich, devouring the poor, taxing profits on band aids paid by the working class. To be patriotic in this Bushit DEAthland is a Treasonous act. Jerking fossil fool crude plastic banners from Sadamn and Ossama oil wells, made in Chinese child sweatshops. So young boys and girls can kill other parents kids and collaterally damage more future reconstruction projects and infrastructure profits to Haliburdon and Home despot. Protecting the polluters providing more asthma and cancer to sell even more chemo and inhalers.
So why is the safer Ganja illegal? Its free...
Peace, Love and Liberty or DEAth...

Italian fascism and German Nazism had their admirers within the U.S. business community and the corporate owned press. Bankers, publishers, and industrialists, including the likes of Henry Ford, traveled to Rome and Berlin to pay homage, receive medals, and strike profitable deals. Many did their utmost to advance the Nazi war effort, sharing military industrial secrets and engaging in secret transactions with the Nazi government, even after the United States entered the war. During the 1920s and early 1930s, major publications like Fortune, the Wall Street Journal, Saturday Evening Post, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Christian Science Monitor hailed Mussolini as the man who rescued Italy from anarchy and radicalism.

The documents show that two of the key officials involved in the decision to withhold that information were White House aides Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, today the nation's vice president and secretary of Defense.
``These documents show the lengths to which the government was trying to cover up the truth,'' said the scientist's son, Eric Olson, who gave them to the Mercury News. ``For 22 years there was a coverup. And then, under the guise of revealing everything, there was a new coverup.''

I think the legalization of marijuana has to gain more support from the youth. The hippie generation has been doing their part for the last 40 years. Its time the youth stood up along side them and made their voices heard. I think the youth needs to educate themselves on the benefits of marijuana so they can make legitamite arguments with those that oppose it so everyone will see how hypocritical the government is when it comes to this issue. I am tired of uneducated people running this country and making the laws.

The worry behind the youth movement is that it will just be a phase passing through the individual youths' life. You have to establish an educated connection between responsible usage and responsible kids. We've been having this problem over at Pot-Cast.com While preparing a disclaimer. How do you define a responsible marijuana smoking youth? At what age? 13, 15, 18, 19, 21 are all ages in consideration. The problem however is that the age is not the issue, the issue is responsability. The older are responsible to teach the young a proper education of cannabis use. There's more to smoking than rolling and lighting up. I hope to discuss this further @ www.pot-cast.com We'll have some educated individuals posting over there shortly. Hopefully these questions will be better understood, as well as answered, someday soon.

Whats great about today and today's teens is the info is all over the net and they can make own mind up on pot not government.
BTW EVERYONE
NEW mayor of OAKLAND CA is none other than US congressman Ron Dellums
who is a cannabis law reformer past NORML board member. He supports the Measure Z.
OAKLAND is right next to San Francisco
Bart takes 20 mins from downtown SF to Oakland, for a Oakland A's game
Measure Z:
Oakland voters have overwhelmingly approved Measure Z. Spearheaded by the Drug Policy Alliance Network and other groups, the measure will set the groundwork for decriminalizing marijuana while making private, adult cannabis use the lowest enforcement priority for police. It allows the police to focus their resources and energy on fighting violent crime and lowering the city's murder rate. The initiative will also raise funds for the city and allow medical marijuana users to buy their medicine from legitimate businesses.
Endorsers of Measure Z included public health groups, community leaders and elected officials. Rep. Barbara Lee, who represents Oakland in Congress, recorded a phone message to Oakland voters urging their support. The Bay Area has a long history of championing reforms that lead to desperately-needed changes on the state and national levels.
"Oakland voters clearly understood the 'war on drugs' has been a failure and detrimental to our community," said Judy Appel, attorney with the Drug Policy Alliance Network in Oakland. "Criminalizing marijuana has unfairly imprisoned thousands of nonviolent offenders, including a disproportionate number of people of color. Meanwhile, our police are wasting time and energy they could be using to focus on violent crime."
The movement in California is strong I am seeing coffee shop/ pot clubs in San Francisco.Where you can buy and smoke.
Anyone can get a card.
Don't think feds don't want here it's A TEST.
The clubs pay 20k for permit.
High ass rents.
Pay income tax.
Hire workers.
Take off street.
Also it makes yearly 100k in sales tax.
ADS ALL OVER THE STREETS ON THE PROGRAMS AND WHERE TO GET DOCTORS.
That's why 140+clubs here.
This is going nation in less than 10yrs for not just sick for everyone.
I get the oaksterdam paper from oakland
All pot news, reviews of clubs, and newest laws and so on. they have website to get new news.
legal pot soon for all and they will use this system I am sure of it.

The poisons eradicating the hemp, does more harm than smoking a bong, and removing hemp ditchweed doesn't do a whole hellava lot for the kids finding cheap white powders profiting the same chemical and lab equipment supplies.
Is prison sodomy really the Christian way to repentance? Religious drug treatment, preachers and cops still dealing with medical issues for the drug cartels listed on the Dow Jones. While Physicians are persecuted for doing their jobs. Blackmailed by AMA Protection Rackets and DEAth threats if they even mention, let alone say its ok. More Pharmaid salesmen and women in Doctors waiting rooms than patients. All with built in side effects as an added Christmas bonus. If they don't work try something else. A long list before "natural" is even brought up.
And if it works, so what. Its just anecdotal. Reality has nothing to do with maintaining dysfunction. Only "drugs" can cure an ill, if it cures its a drug. If its a drug it must be tested by the FDA, unless its a cannabis product, either hemp or Ganja. Then its by sole permission of the drug czar. And then its only with mediocre schwag grown on a Military base. So the homegrown that works is illegal. And since all these millions of folks were getting relief from an illegal drug, they had built more prisons. Now that industry houses 2 million, sells them food paid with tax dollars and blankets and lawyers and the mahogany bench and marble buildings built to keep up.
The petrol chemical based or maintained commodities presently forced on the citizens as alternatives to natural organic Sacramental Ganja meds and hemp food, fuel and fiber make billions a year perpetuating the poisoning. Kids play in the dirt sprayed from the sky with contaminants running off into the water the pregnant woman just drank. Aborting more unborn than these Operation Rescuers claim Planned Parenthood does. Neuro illness also running rampant since the inception of fossil fools and Ganja prohibition. Maybe a coincidence but then someone made the trillion spent arresting Ganja users. Prevention and intervention, treatment and eradication. Confiscation forfeitures all provide incentives to maintain this war. Nothing to help the kids taking away after school programs to poison song birdseed.
Hemp paper and wood products will let the kids have woods to explore. Instead of a crack pipe out of boredom. Since bong stash cost more than Gold. Trees clear cut instead of making fresh air removing CO2 producing oxygen and filtering water given free but DEAth can't see or doesn't care. Frothing zealots Souter and John Waldo's working hard to sell their product war paraphernalia. Tax shelters for spare change to fund PDFA this is your egg on drugs commercials. 2 mil $$$ during the supperbowl, in between 30 second spots of those twins selling Miller, Ganja's cousin hops.
Veggie oil or soldier kids dying in the sand? Plastic goes to landfills now what's wrong with biodegradable? Car parts and clothing from Mid West farmers instead of raping Alaska for two years worth of lead and sulfur pollution crude we don't want anyway.
So DEAth mongers don't like clean air for kids for some reason, clean water bothers and trees must be ugly and imperfect or something? Believing in Geeeeeezus plants from mamon, idolatry at its worst. The Jesus I've heard of, didn't build any churches or hold any titles or charge any fee. Instead of war to convert he wiped the dust off his hemp rope sandals and left without argument. Take it or leave it. Nothing written in best sellers. Or forced on the kids. Nothing he ever mentioned about his mom being a Virgin. No special robes or did he wear a solid gold cross from his neck. Blessing the starving as he drives by. How many meals would it buy?
The pope and the fascist back by popular demand. As long as the fauxnews reports it as such. As long as they report what's wrong and what's right. We can spend our time with more important things. O'Really FEAR factors and Home Despot improvement.
The government said we should chow down with meat by products, bread and pasta and tons of sugar. Reagan tried to help the kids making Ketchup a vegetable. Hiding tumor research and hemp History. Now Science says Ganja relieves Alzheimer symptoms. Nancy just said NO, it might send the wrong message.
Hempseed, the most nutritional food source can not be grown in the US cause the meat and grain industry and their chemical buds said to Klintoon, How bad you want to win? Bush continues the farce taking large sums of cash from fossil fools poisons, appointing large sums of their x employees to not enforce what they can't gut with legislation. To dole out contracts in spite of past records, as long as they mandatory pisstaste so the labs can collect more millions. Kids losing tuition assistance for life if its positive. Won't stop the hardrugs that wash out in a day or so. Only the metabolites of cannabis that aren't harmful in the first place. Or do they indicate when a person used. Inebriation testing won't treat employees like prisoners.
Medicine is best left to patients and doctors and nurses and caregivers. Not vested interest profiteers stealing billions of tax dollars and hundreds of Constitutional infractions and child molestation of their delicate minds with flat out lies and teaching them to snitch on their parents and neighbors. How low life is it when kids die for lazy DEAth liars. Or lose their house and parents cause they did the "right thing". The religious right maybe. How many patients would really give up drugs from the store for a weed that didn't work? How many times must some one smoke a joint without any incidents or mishaps before someone witnesses it? How many kids will die from cigarettes spiked with thousands of corporate chemicals behind prohibition? Chemicals when ignited do damage organic tobacco doesn't. Or organic Ganja.
Yet they compare the hundreds of thousands dead from cigarettes, thousands from aspirin and illegal drugs, tens of thousands from booze and Pharmaceuticals and not a one overdosing from Ganja. Compare what? I think St Francis said to go out and find food for the hungry, medicine for the sick and dying, shelter and heat for the homeless, clothing for the naked, and a peaceful alternative to chemical booze products whipping up Nationalists to kill other parents kids for oil, with chemical defoliant agents and depleted uranium. But what would the message be to the kids?

All We Need is a Mascot By Lindy T. Shepherd
CN Source: San Antonio Current March 17, 2005
'It's Just a Plant' takes the fight for NORML drug laws to a young audience.
Since its very seed, this children's book about marijuana (yes, you read correctly) was meant to spark discussion: between parents and children and between government and citizens. And it successfully accomplishes that, in spades: "An outrage," says Entertainment Weekly. "A delightful book ... a glimpse of what enlightened drug education could be," says Dr. Andrew Weil.

Pot Pediatrics By Paul Armentano
CN Source: AlterNet March 15, 2005
Could the human body's own "marijuana" hold the key to a healthy and happy childhood? Scientists in Israel have posed the question, and their answer may surprise you. Recently, researcher Ester Fride of the Behavioral Sciences Department of Israel's College of Judea and Samaria published a pair of scientific papers stating that the brain's cannabinoid receptors (receptors in the brain that respond pharmacologically to various compounds in cannabis as well as other endogenous compounds) and the naturally occurring messenger molecules that activate and bind to them (so-called endocannabinoids) "are present from the early stages of gestation" and may play "a number of vital roles" in human prenatal and postnatal development.

I agree too many a years just for pot 700k+ get busted but almost 90 % it was not the deal,seller,grower but user.
In FED prison 20k for pot 10k are Spanish.
Now the young teens of the USA seem to be on the hit list now.
Persons that done worse crimes still have things open to them that are no longer open to a pot busted person.
Some would make you sick.
Go after the real crazy criminals than teens smoking pot smoking but wait teens easier to take down.

Everybody, just think. The U.S.A is what.... over a trillion doller's in debt. Now before people start going at the blame game, stop right there. IT"S NOT BUSHES FAULT!!!
With that out of the way.
Just think if marijuana was legal. The tax on marijuana alone would clear the debt deficite within a year to a few year's. I am not talking about when our children's children are 50. I am talking within the max of 4 year's. Marijuana could not only raise the U.S out of debt, but just think of the drop in crime rate, more money could go else where instead of billion's of doller's a year trying to prove a LIE. You cant prove a lie. This can all be settle with a simple plant. Just think if marijuana did become legal, the strain's that people would come up with. Good work everybody.

I heard some estimates for what type of tax revune marijuana could bring if regulated and taxed. I think i heard it on NORML's podcast. Something like 4 billion a year. I may be way off, but I was suprized how much it was. That pod cast is a great source of info if any one is looking to become a little more informed on the subject.

i vote 4 this to be stickied.
i dont understand how you can make something illegal that is natural. i mean its been here for hundreds and thousands of years its just like saying oak tree's are illegal. i know its a halucegenic but does this matter theres probably all sorts of plants that are that no body knows about. Ever been to amsterdam? i have and i know that there the system works everyone is soo much more layed back and they seem to enjoy life alot more i dont know if this has anything to do with the fact its legal there but people are friendly theres very little rubbish on the streets and overall its just a pleasent place to be y cant people use amsterdam as a role modle n legalise it?
The government is hiding the truth. They don't want people to know the truth about Canabis, because if people know the truth then they will start questioning why Canabis is illegal in the United States. Truth is, if it was legal the industries especially the pharamastical industry would lose a lot of money because people would be using weed to help with chronic pain, cancer, and even simple things like headaches and they don't want that to happen.

I really have no doubts that marijuana will be legal pretty soon. A lot of older people, like my parents and the people I work with don't think that it'll pass, but you have to think about the number of people in the united states that smoke pot...honestly...The majority of the american population smokes down, and it's not like everyone will be stoned all the time and not get anything done ever, marijuana is legal in a lot of european countries and they do fine. Most of my friends get stoned everyday and go to work and function fine...they still get everything done. My dad's been smoking pot for basically his whole life and he did well. It's not going to destroy america's work ethic or anything like that...not that it's very good in the first place.

There is a book that gives a very good answer for the kids on what pot is all about, it's called "It's Just A Plant". I heard of it, bought it, and love it. I just need some kids to read it too. Until I do, I simply read it to non-stoners, and they like it. It's a great way to smash the stereotype.

Serving Our Veterans, Ditching The Ideology By John Ephland
CN Source: Kalamazoo Gazette December 10, 2007 Michigan
Everyone knows war results in the death and destruction of human life. Any veteran can tell you it's not like in the movies. And for those injured vets who live to tell about it, any and all effective, appropriate means for medical care are welcome. The only problem is, certain proven procedures have been ``off the table'' for non-medical reasons. One of America's leading organizations promoting innovative approaches to such care is Veterans for Medical Marijuana Access.

Chalk up another one for supporters of medical marijuana. Two weeks after a judge in Fort Collins ordered that 39 pot plants seized from a couple be returned to them, an Aurora man is banking on the same outcome. Felony drug charges against Kevin Dickes, 39, a state-certified medical marijuana user and Desert Storm veteran, were dropped Friday by 18th Judicial District Attorney Carol Chambers. He could have faced six years in prison.

Oh, the number of times I've explained to people at school that it's not one iota as bad as ads and stuff make it sound. Those above the influence commercials/ads...cheese and rice, man.

the only reason marijuana was made illegal in the first place was the illegal immigrant problem in the 30's so to combat it they illegalized pot and now look thanks 2 that there r more illegals i the united.
if there were no laws against it then the government could put a tax on it (like ciggarettes) and sell it in retail places (like walmart) it would boost the economy by putting jobs back into the work force in agriculture and it would help the shovenistic goverment for some goddamn reason and maybe if they were smart they could put it in the research for beneficial pharmicutical purposes in the hope of maybe finding a cure for cancer or glaucoma rater than putting innocent people (mostly teens) in jail.
also every person that is put in jail is just more money out of our (the tax payers) money and its a waste of potential and integrity

because old fucks vote. and the majority of old fucks hate young people. and to get back at us they vote on laws that fuck us young people over on a certain tuesday while we're at our jobs or school earning a living or getting an education. they dont care, as long as we're as miserable as they are because their generation sucked serious balls and they lost their youth when they were drafted. tough shit grandpa, deal with it. dont fuck me and my future kids over. this is when democracy just doesnt work.

I googled pot and came up with some history, colonial farmers were required to grow hemp. The production of medicine was one of the reasons given. Ashes from pot were found in a 3000yr. old tomb in Israel, archaeologists think it was used to relieve the pain of child birth. Look up W.R.Hearst, DuPont and Harry J Anslinger, the three of them lied to congress in order to make sure the 1932 Uniform States Narcotics Act and the 1936 Marijuana Tax Act were passed. Hearst owned 80% of the pulp wood in America, DuPont wanted to replace hemp rope with nylon, and Anslinger wanted the job as head of the new Federal Narcotics Bureau. A report from the bureau of prisons says that 1% of America's population is behind bars. Most for drug law offences. Laws built on lies. Look into it your self and then spread the truth. The ad that said pot kills brain cells? They hooked Rhesus monkeys to air tight gas masks and pumped in the smoke from 60+ Colombian grade joints, that much of any kind of smoke would do damage to brain cells. Look up Abe Lincolns speech Dec. 18, 1840 Illinois House of Representatives, it has to do with prohibition laws. We have to fight the lies if we are ever going to get the support of our neighbors (people who vote) to change the laws.

Yup, it was made illegal because of political bullshit. I think we're close to having it legalized, though, now our politicians are coming from a good generation who has it's head out of it's ass. We need to push this before soccer moms and shit start taking office, we're likely to have it legalized in the next ten or twelve years or else it will never be legal.

I am way too drunk to read all that shit you wrote, which is a bit hypocrital of me, cause I tend to write a lot. But I think I agree with you. Cause as it stands right now it is far too easy for the youths (or the "utes" as Pesci would say in "My Cousin Vinny" I fooking love that movie!!!!) to get ahold of the weed as it is. So, I support legalization because then the go'ment could regulate who gets it and who don't. Then maybe I could bullshit a doc into givin me a scription so as I could smoke legally. But at the same time, 16 year old kids that don't have no control would have a harder time getting a hold of it. If I were sober I could propose a whole system. But who gives a fuck cause the go'ment won't never listen to me. Even though it would greatly increase the economy, health and happiness of our great country.
I will be posting a new thread on this. And I will be putting my website on that new thread, I just wanted any readers of this thread to see my new thread on the topic and my website on del.icio.us
Go to del.icio.us.legalizalo
legalizalo means "legalize it" in spanish. but del.icio.us.legalizeit was taken. maybe this guy has good info as well. So maybe go check both of our pages, cause we are all friends, right?
