I never really paid much attention to the HEMP Bar website before, but here is something I just noticed..... Its no secret a lot of Nimbinites prefer bush but I didn't know opinions were this extreme. and we wonder where some of the bullshit news stories come from... I mean I appreciate the work those guys do its cool to have a place you can smoke in public and meet stoners but I think the fact that the HEMP Bar is spreading this crap is totally fucked. If these guys are the pointy end of mj activism in Australia we are in trouble. Obviously...

Heya. I'm a noob, so please be gentle with me (especially if my evening's lurking has failed to unearth the thread that's already broached this subject). Being big on the activism front of late, I am curious to know if anyone's actually written a formal draft "legalisation of cannabis" bill that could legitimately be introduced to Parliament. It seems a valid, pro-active move to actually sit down and write something formal ourselves, rather than asking politicians to do it for us. It might grease the wheels with some of them to actually grow a pair and back it. Has it been done already? If not, why not? And if not, does anyone want to help me get started? Rallies…

Hey all I was watching the 7PM Project the other night and they raised the subject of mental health Well as many of us use Cannabis to treat mental health illnesses, i thought it would be good to point it out to the 7PM Project... to try and reach the crew that havent got internet and to hopefully educate some ignorant peeps so if anyone would like to have their say....now is a time to do it. if you can add any doctors or psychologist or psychiatrist reports saying they recognize that ya use Cannabis for medicinal purposes, that would be bloody unreal - however i would black out any personal details that you want to keep private.......if you use any personal do…

Let the fun begin. Our new premier is a hardliner, he's never made any bones about it, I've never liked him and didn't vote for him ... but good on ya if you did. But didn't he also mention "more jails" and "zero tolerance" at some stage? so no more bongs for Victoria??? People are going to lose jobs and income. In my case, because I make my main income from other things than paraphernalia so the loss of income from bong prohibition going to roll off like water off a duck's back for me, but I know a couple of people whose main income is glass for smoking out of. Hookahs will stay legal? How is a hookah different to a bong? Culture? Aren't bongs cultural, too? Sigh. Fu…

I love what is going on in California but i hate how even medical marijuana is not a political issue in this country. With the Greens and independents negotiating power, it would be great if somebody raised marijuana as an issue, but in Australia its not even on the radar, except when its being mentioned as a "dangerous substance" and increase in penalties needed. Do Australians not love Marijuana as much as Californians? At this rate Australia will be lucky to have strictly controlled medical marijuana within 20 years (that means you can't get it unless you have select severe illnesses and have tried other medicines etc, if you take it for anxiety or depression don…

Seems the best bet to form an Australia wide group is to incorporate an Association in one state then submit to become a registered body so it can operate Australia wide. Each state has its own fee structure for this. (these fees are just for the incorporation, not including the registration as a national body) QLD $117.00 QLD fees NSW $109.00 NSW fees ACT $142.00 ACT fees VIC $58.50 (if we use the model rules), $116.90 (own rules) Vic Fees TAS $133 TAS fees NT $65 NT fees SA $156 SA fees WA $126.00 WA fees OR ALTERNATIVELY We could approach one of the groups that already exists and either work with them to increase the awaren…

I tried a quick search for this but couldnt come up with much. What is the saliva test they use? I hear it can detect use between 4 and 14 hours after use. Anyways, it seems like a good idea to be prepared for these tests. As I dont smoke before/during work, and these saliva tests can show up from the night before, as far as I'm concerned its better safe than sorry. That I am currently looking at to keep in the car, because I drive lots for work, is a mouthwash (single use bottle) that I can keep in the car. This is for use if I think I am getting pulled over, or see a drug bus up the road and have smoked earlier that day or the night before. One I have been looking at …
