Cannabis Law and Politics
-
After chatting with some other members we decided to see if there was any interest in getting a large number of people in each state/capitol city to march on Parlament to protest against the unjust laws regarding Cannabis. Let us know if you would be interested, could you help lead one? Have you got contacts we could all use to increase the numbers, this includes Doctors, infact anyone from the medical profession, and the legal profession too? We do not want this to be a hippy style protest or mardi gras we need to show that not all users are what the media pushes and the government tries to show to allow them to keep these laws in place. We need to turn up looking like t…

Only 1000 people will be deliberating Australia's future at next week's 2020 Summit - but that's not to say your voice won't be heard. Incredibly, 118 of the chosen delegates are GetUp members, including our Executive Director Brett Solomon, so we're starting a conversation to make sure that your voice is added to theirs before they begin their dialogue about Australia's future. Have your say on what you want our country's future to look like on our 2020 forums - and we will deliver your ideas direct to the decision makers heading to Canberra: www.getup.org.au/2020 The forums have been started by GetUp members attending the Summit, and they're keen to make sure y…

I just sent these letters of to the TGA and to the Federal Health Minister, here is my challange to you all, do the same, I don't care if you use what I have put in or your own wording, but do it. Given there are 8,425 registered members at current and more every day if even 50% did so they would be burried in paperwork and also have a major problem. Remember we all know users who are not members so get all to do the same. Oh year before you all start I know the growers are going to say they do not want to draw attention to themselves and that in my email I made it look like all hydro is poison and street dealers are evil, I for one do not believe this and what we are try…

Cannas, this is an article I have written to send to the mass media, I would like comment from any of you to make sure what I have said is absolutely correct so nobody can tear down the arguments. I intend to try to get it published far and wide as a first step to fighting the propaganda war we are all stuck in.... The United Nations, of which Australia is a member state, is an organization that exists primarily to prevent the scourge of war. The United Nations has also stated any Propaganda for war must be prohibited under Law. Australia has publicly pledged to uphold these values and objectives yet when we look at what is actually being done in our country we …

I feel I have the solution to all our problems with making cannabis legal, I'm completly serious about this, it's something I have thought about for a long time. In my opinion, everyone (at least to my knowledge) that has been involved with trying to legalize or decriminalize cannabis has been approaching it from the wrong direction. Not to say that anyone's efforts were wrong or bad, just that I feel that the reason none of us (including myself as I have been involved in cannabis legalization for a long time) have been on the right track. What we need to use is reverse psychology. Allow me to explain, who are the people that are in charge of the world, in charge of…

Peter Webster's psychedelic-library.org is a great resource and he's just uploaded an mp3 of his recent talk at the recent ENCOD Drug Peace Conference, a counter-event to the annual meeting of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs from last week: http://www.psychedelic-library.org/Peter%2...%208%202008.mp3 http://www.psychedelic-library.org/Vienna%202008.rtf It's a great listen, goes into his theories on the basis for our neurological and psychological development, the prohibitionist mindset, and why were are stuck with prohibition today.

Just watched a fantasic doc on History ch. called "Dope Fiend's Paradise". It's a broad view of all drugs gong through the phases of becomming illegal. how race was the main motive, I understand better than I ever have, jsust what the Harrison Tax act was for. I mean I always knew it was to bann drugs, but just why they needed a tax act to do so. it was becuase it was constitutinally, and as I've always said, historically unique that a society ever ruled what a person could put into their body. It dealt much to do with opaite laws, but they touched on everything including grass and acohol prohibition. Interesting facts raise werre that the first people adversely eff…

Out of frustration I e-mailed HEMP SA, the only political organisation I can think of operating in this country. Well at least I think they are still operating and that was largely what the e-mail was in regards to (Do you still exist) I told them that there has been some interest on this site lately regarding reform an what not so I sent them a link to this section of the forum. Will be interesting to see If I hear from them and I'll let you all know if they do. I think they may be as frustrated and disheartened as the rest of us but maybe if they see they have support, score a few more volunteers/donations, they may be able to make a noticable appearance at the next SA …
