OPERATION: REMEMBER JOHNNY APPLESEED

The world is full of soil...

REMEMBER JOHNNY APPLESEED. Never again, shall we let a decent grow able seed fall to the bottom of the tray, or get dumped in the trash. Everywhere you go plant a seed. Plant them in the forest, at your favorite campsite, in a park, on campus, on the courthouse lawn, or maybe even on the White House lawn. Apparently very little can be done politically until massive public support is shown. How better than to overgrow the country? Now, more than ever, we have to stand up and fight. G.W. Bush, John Walters, and the rest of the three branches under siege of the GOP are worse adversaries to freedom and civil liberties than regimes that our fore fathers have fought to defeat.

RISE UP.

Herb smokers are a peaceful people, and we are a culture of our own. We are a persecuted culture, which means we need new ways to fight. Sometimes the system just doesn't work.

The War on Drugs, and the War on Marijuana, must be separated.

It is almost inconceivable that this, "war," is still taking place. Absolute atrocities are taking place every day concerning the civil rights of Americans, and now the rest of the world due to the War on Terror. It is a crying shame that in any given prison in the U.S. there are dozens, hundreds, or thousands of people serving time for possession of less than a few ounces, or even less than an ounce. They are there right alongside rapists, murderers, pedophiles, wife/child beaters, etc. The truly tragic part is that for many people convicted on marijuana charges, seeing those terrible prison peers come and go will be something of a knife in the back they call a future. I'll bet those serving life sentences for pot get a bit aggravated every time they hear someone who is getting out complaining about having to register as a sex offender.

The incomprehensible amount of money spent battling a war that cannot be won makes me livid at the thought of what all of those billions of dollars could have gone to.

The main argument in the war, being the gateway theory, is absolutely bogus. John Walters is trying to reiterate a defunct theory. Marijuana is the most widely used illicit drug on the planet, and is no more a gateway than alcohol. Though alcohol is probably more so, and far more dangerous.

The side effects of marijuana, especially when vaporized or ingested, pale in comparison to those of most prescription medications. In fact, the challenge has been open for decades to find anyone who has died as a direct result of marijuana use. Aside from temporarily impaired short-term memory and the effects of smoke, the negative side effects are minimal.

If marijuana were produced in higher quantities, then smoking would not be necessary. There are thousands of recipes for cooking with pot, which would negate the adverse health effects that are also used as ammunition by the government in their, "War on Marijuana."

The prohibition and tyranny have gone on for way too long. They cannot, and will not win the War against marijuana. I believe God (whoever he/she may be to you) will not allow it. The Pro/Con list on this topic can no longer be ignored. It is time for a revolution my friends.

So, I propose:

OPERATION: REMEMBER JOHNNY APPLESEED

The world is full of soil...Plant a seed everywhere you go, and every chance you get.

Nineteen years served by an innocent man for Rape

I could not believe this. The amazing part is that the man doesn't seem too bitter. Even though he had two young children when he was falsely convicted. I wish the Judge, Parole Board, and especially the prosecutor has a hard time sleeping for the rest of their lives. In fact, maybe they should go serve some time for this atrocity. What do you think?

The report is here.

Statutory Incestial Rape gets Cop probation

This is just absolutely disgusting. The headline says enough.

U.S.: Hey Canada, here's some injustice...take that. CANADA: Oh, thanks, can we have some more?

Well, my friends, it seems as though we Americans our now spreading our nasty injustice all over the place. This time is the prominent Pot Prince of Canada, Marc Emery. Marc owns a marijuana seed distribution store in B.C. He is also the publisher of the Canadian magazine - Canabis Culture. Marc has fought a hard fight for a long time. I'm afraid he has done himself in on this one.
Mr. Emery, along with Gregory Williams, and Michelle Rainy-Fenkarek were arrested in Nova Scotia, by Canadian authorities on a warrant from officials in Washington State.

Under the Mutually Legal Assistance Treaty all three of them could be tried in the U.S. where penalties are exponentially greater. They face three charges, and distribution alone can get them ten to life. That's right, TEN TO LIFE
Injustice in the world of Marijuana legislation is at an all time "high."
Alcohol KILLS people every single day. By DWI accidents, liver failure, disease, overdose, heart attacks, etc. Marijuana has never directly killed anyone without a severe allergy. Granted some people may do stupid things, but I'll bet you could find twenty incidents involving alcohol for every one found involving pot.

The bullshit and the tyranny has gone on WAY TOO LONG. The prohibition of Marijuana should have ended with the prohibition of alcohol, and neither should have ever happened. The continued prohibition is out of nothing but ignorance, and self righteousness.

So, my friends. While our recent departees will be spending the next several years in prison - possibly LIFE on the distribution charges alone - I suggest we do what we can to correct the injustice in their tribute, and the tribute of all persecuted herb smokers everywhere.

I propose: Don't ever let another seed fall to the bottom of the ashtray or sorting tray. The world is full of soil. REMEMBER JOHNNY APPLESEED. It's time for a revolution my friends. They can not win the war against marijuana. I believe God will not allow it. It's time we show them that.
