I saw ganja...that's slang for weed, I'm a pothead. I arrive. Welcome Fear & Loathing ... Nice to see you my Brother Good to be here Rapunzel! yes, you are more than welcome... feel free to stop by here & at the 4:20 Clubhouse anytime... it's for everyone who is hopefully of a higher mind & consciousness & one who is of a definite herbal persuasion Please Read what i have posted here & there & read the Emperor Wears No Clothes by Jack Herer... www.jackherer.com he speaks of the dastardly prohibition of hemp there is a lot going on in the news and hopefully we will see it become legal soon if the feds & politicians are fair & don't get greedy it will very good for the whole world in so many ways... not Just for the consumption of THC but to make legal & to step up Hemp Production... for it is a truly viable versatile resource & product to make so many things like clothing, paper & furniture that would cause so much less impact on the world, in contrast to the materials & methods they are using today it used to be very very legal until some people saw that it was in direct competition with the things they had their investments in |

even now, the process is going at a damn snail's pace.....
ooooh, maybe ....hopefully in my lifetime , I will see some major legal & environmental changes made I have to go now, but please click on Jack's website... <<< www.jackherer.com >>> His book is in its 12th edition i think & you can get it at the library or bookstore or find it entirely online i am gonna post each chapter here when i have the time http://www.jackherer.com/chapters.html Any one who wants to see Pot become legal needs to be aware & active in supporting that cause this is just one of the news articles on that site http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2009/02/27/MN2016651R.DTL U.S. to yield marijuana jurisdiction to states Bob Egelko, Chronicle Staff Writer Friday, February 27, 2009 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (02-26) 20:00 PST San Francisco -- U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder is sending strong signals that President Obama - who as a candidate said states should be allowed to make their own rules on medical marijuana - will end raids on pot dispensaries in California. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Obama ends raids at medical marijuana dispensaries: Great move Shows he's soft on drugs Now let states legalize pot entirely Asked at a Washington news conference Wednesday about Drug Enforcement Administration raids in California since Obama took office last month, Holder said the administration has changed its policy. "What the president said during the campaign, you'll be surprised to know, will be consistent with what we'll be doing here in law enforcement," he said. "What he said during the campaign is now American policy." Bill Piper, national affairs director of the Drug Policy Alliance, a marijuana advocacy group, said the statement is encouraging. "I think it definitely signals that Obama is moving in a new direction, that it means what he said on the campaign trail that marijuana should be treated as a health issue rather than a criminal justice issue," he said. Piper said Obama has also indicated he will drop the federal government's long-standing opposition to health officials' needle-exchange programs for drug users. During one campaign appearance, Obama recalled that his mother had died of cancer and said he saw no difference between doctor-prescribed morphine and marijuana as pain relievers. He told an interviewer in March that it was "entirely appropriate" for a state to legalize the medical use of marijuana "with the same controls as other drugs prescribed by doctors." After the federal Drug Enforcement Agency raided a marijuana dispensary at South Lake Tahoe on Jan. 22, two days after Obama's inauguration, and four others in the Los Angeles area on Feb. 2, White House spokesman Nick Schapiro responded to advocacy groups' protests by noting that Obama had not yet appointed his drug policy team. "The president believes that federal resources should not be used to circumvent state laws" and expects his appointees to follow that policy, Schapiro said. The federal government has fought state medicinal pot laws since Californians voted in 1996 to repeal criminal penalties for medical use of marijuana. President Bill Clinton's administration won a Supreme Court case, originating in Oakland, that allowed federal authorities to shut down nonprofit organizations that supplied medical marijuana to their members. Clinton's Justice Department was thwarted by federal courts in an attempt to punish California doctors who recommended marijuana to their patients. President George W. Bush's administration went further, raiding medical marijuana growers and clinics, prosecuting suppliers under federal drug laws after winning another Supreme Court case and pressuring commercial property owners to evict marijuana dispensaries by threatening legal action. The Bush administration also blocked a University of Massachusetts researcher's attempt to grow marijuana for studies of its medical properties. Piper, of the Drug Policy Alliance, said he hopes Obama will reverse that position. "If you removed the obstacles to research," he said, <<< in 10 to 15 years,>>> < marijuana will be available in pharmacies. > E-mail Bob Egelko at begelko@sfchronicle.com. that's great, but 10 -15 years !!! when will justice & righteousness ever be served |

"All you need is love..." ohhh Hi there Lou, and thank you soo much ... I feel that there are soo many different threads available out there & everyone can find the ones that feel comfortable for them or start their own clubhouse, cafe' or coffee house So, if someone has a serious problem with pot & wants to oppose the re ~ legalization of it , then i feel that they could start their own thread and if they want to debate it, they can do that... i want to be able to come here & lay down my guard & just relax & have fun in a few threads around here without always feeling on the defensive I have enough stuff i have to deal with living in the city & being in such close proximity to a lot of people, many of whom are of the very very unsavory type so i try to avoid confrontation as much as possible... They say that <<< birds of a feather >>> <<< flock together >>> , & that is what i try to advocate here Soooooooo, It's time to Light Up People <<< My Fellow Birds of A Feather >>> |
