Cannabis Law and Politics

Hi there, I'm new to the site, i just wrote a little article of my affiliation with the plant and why its illegal. Cheers and i hope you find it interesting read! Cannabis Opened the Flood-Gates As I live in Australia, The the use of cannabis is prohibited and penalties are quite harsh, which is in line with most of the Westernized nations. As a school boy I remember heading into my personal health and education class and the subject for today was the use of drugs in particular cannabis. The teacher inserted a dusty videotape off from one of the shelves into the TV. I was horrified what I saw, stories of teenagers stuck in their…

(Government Ordained Drugs). Whether you scored them at the airport (under cheap Duty Free Drugs), or you scored them at the resort where you were staying, or you scored them off the many thousands of Bali’s so-called ‘legal’ recreational drug dealers (Note: Bali’s legal drug dealers and our legal drug dealers have a lot in common. They both invite legal druggies known as Police into their dealer to wipe out any drug dealing competition taking pla…

Paranoia! Even the word strikes delusional fear in the hearts and minds of some individuals and collectives. So, what is Paranoia? - Logically speaking, Paranoia is a form of illogical fear and dread, stemming from ungrounded/ irrational/ illogical and unreasonable emotional states and mindsets. But, there are two sides to every coin when it comes to fear - the other side is logical, reasonable, rational and grounded fear. ‘Fear’ is defined as (from Goth. ‘ferja’ meaning ‘pursuer’ to O.E. ‘danger, fear’) an “emotion, state of mind, caused by a sense of impending danger, misfortune, pain etc; terror, dreadâ€. This emotion/state of mind can be caused…

(Parody of 'Imagine' - John Lennon) IMAGINE no Prohibition, It’s easy if you try. No more living in fear, and trying to understand why. Imagine all of our people, living as one human race. Imagine Universal Tolerance. And respect being shown across the world. No one being suppressed and hated, and no more tolerance flags unfurled. Imagine all of our people living together in Peace. Yoo-ou-ou-ou, You may say I’m bloody dreamin’, but I know I’m not the only one. I hope some day you’ll join us, in just living free under the sun. Imagine no discrimination. I wonder if you can. No more biased and racist attitudes, being unleashed as a Master plan. Imagine all…

So, a few weeks ago I signed up to this "Stop the war on drugs" petition I saw on twitter. Expected nothing to come of it. Then today, I checked my email (something I NEVER do) and found this: (I just hope it's true)

Ros Philips of Family Voice Australia is calling for a TV advertising campaign and specialised Cannabis rehab services to help Australians quit cannabis. "Right now we are seeing a very effective TV campaign encouraging tobacco smokers to quit. But there is nothing to encourage cannabis or marijuana smokers to do the same, despite mounting evidence of the damage it does to the physical and mental health". Nothing to encourage/ brutally force cannabis consumers to give up their choice? Really? What about No Tolerance Against Cannabis Campaigns, which consist of persecution, harrassment, slander, vilification, discrimination, false imprisonment, home invasions, …

Under the Tories’ omnibus crime legislation tabled Tuesday, a person growing 201 pot plants in a rental unit would receive a longer mandatory sentence than someone who rapes a toddler or forces a five-year-old to have sex with an animal. Producing six to 200 pot plants nets an automatic six-month sentence, with an extra three months if it’s done in a rental or …

Hey guys, I just done a cannabis survey, it's just really sadden me that some of the facts they put on are really just FALSE !!!, I personally don't think they even go and research science and benefits that cannabis can bring, instead they just ask about all the bad things about cannabis and the new WA laws, overall everything are just over-exaggerated, especially the 5.7x times to cause cancer one. Australia is really falling behind. In other countries, they are pushing and working very hard to free the world. Take care everyone.

Two employees of a private security firm called G4S have been fired after attaching an electronic monitor to a man’s prosthetic leg. The firm, which claims to be “the world’s leading international security solutions group,†places tens of thousands of ankle bracelet monitors on offenders each year on behalf of Brittan’s Ministry of Justice. However, 29-year-old Christopher Lowcock, who was to be monitored for a court-imposed curfew due to drug and weapon charges, fooled them. Lowcock got G4S employees to attach his electronic monitor to the ankle of his false leg. This, of course, allowed him to remove the limb, leave it behind, and break curfew without alerti…
