Cannabis Law and Politics

PArt of the description of this forum is in part "things that effect society by the war on drugs. And I thought that was an excellent pace to plant this link relating to some guy's blogg who seems neither pro or against drugs vrerses booze, he seeems free of both choices, and it is good to see the "joe pulic" have just about had it with the drug arguermepeak through the straight windownt, you have to hope it's reached it's political peak? Let's hope so least ways. cheers rob

This is a really good video from a laywer who actually makes the speech and lesson exciting and interesting, so its not a boring, dry lecture. Granted this all pertains to USA law, but pretty much everything he says about why you shouldnt talk to the police is equally as true here. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4...33865&hl=en

There is some orchestrated talk that The Government is toying with the idea of exorcising vanilla and lemon essence from the supermarkets, because young people are drinking these instead of the now more expensive 'alcopops'. Seriously? Have you ever tried to get drunk on vanilla or lemon essence? For myself, I'd rather quaff bong-water, my own urine or sniff petrol than drink cooking essences. Which young person – even one well and appreciably below average intelligence - is going to purchase bottles of essence to get drunk when there's cannabis? What explanations could be proffered by said young people for their essence excesses? “We're conducting a science experiment…

I know it's not pot, ....this time... But as I've ranted and raved a dozen times before, every bloody royal commision into drug laws in this country, and every commission into political and police corruption, have returned verdicts that drug laws need re-writing. that the prohibited stance of drugs facsilitates corruption at every level, and the harder they push (war on drugs. More like war on drug "users")...the more corruption that emitts. There's gotta be better articles around, but here's one

I'm not sure why, but I was under the impression that the sale of bongs etc. was still legal in most states other than Qld and SA. However, while searching for some legal info for a friend, I stumbled upon this.. NSW DRUG MISUSE AND TRAFFICKING ACT 1985 - SECT 11A I couldn't find any more detail about... ..so I'm assuming all bongs would be regarded as waterpipes.Considering they're on full display in a few shops in Nimbin, I'm assuming the pigs just choose to turn a blind eye ..or have I got the bull by the tit.. again

Booze crusade ignores bigger evil=CANNABIS * WTF * Miranda Devine <--- hahaha devine? she is not March 13, 2008 It's a bit rich for a man who got famously stonkered at a lap-dancing club in New York five years ago to be lecturing the rest of us on binge drinking. The Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, said he was so drunk during a visit to Scores club with the New York Post's editor, Col Allan, that he couldn't remember a thing that happened. And yet now he has identified the "epidemic" of teenage binge-drinking as Australia's No.1 scourge, so important he must allocate a staggering $53 million to combat it, despite the fact he doesn't really know if it is a problem.…

hey all, rock has given me these documents and asked me to post them on his behalf. He is encouraging everyone he can to fill them out and post to the attorney general. I don't know any more about these documents than you do as I haven't read them yet myself, but if you have any questions or want to chat to rock send a PM to me or radic and we'll pass it on the next time one of us sees him. actually I haven't checked if this is OK with radic yet, but I'm sure it would be...

Please do not flame me for this. it is but an opinion to which I am entitled. It is a legal, theological and moral argument against the prohibition of a plant.You may find some things you agree with, some you don't and there are links to many helpful documents when mounting a defense to charges. All constructive comment is of course welcomed and encouraged. please feel free to plagarize this document for what ever purpose may further the battle to ending prohibition.I would love to read a response to this from that major wanker from the salvos that Johnny put in the ICNB, by the book he proclaims as God's truth he is wrong. It cannot be seriously con…
