OK, So I have been a member here for many years, and I have contributed to a number of activism type threads. I am no angel, and I freely admit to making many stupid comments on here. I have tried to get a few topics started in regards to activism, but often my own arrogance got in the way and they all got shut down. So time to start again. Basically what I am after is an indication of the users who are interested in activism. Who genuinely want to help change the laws? I am only interested in hearing from people who are actually willing to stand up for what they believe in. Trolls are not invited and will basically be ignored. I once mentioned "agent provocateurs" , go…

The National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre The NCPIC mission is to reduce the use of cannabis in Australia by preventing uptake and providing the community with evidence-based information and interventions NCPIC is a Department of Health and Ageing initiative. http://ncpic.org.au/ sorry that sounds like bullshit to me! promoting this kind of crap Conclusion Although recent cannabis use among Australians appears to have declined steadily since 1998, cannabis remains the most commonly used illicit drug in Australia. Furthermore, at least in the context of emergency departments in two inner-city Sydney hospitals, cannabis use appears to be asso…

Iamnotacop brought up something in the Naming thread that I think deserves a bit more than just a mention in another topic. One thing that has always gotten in the way before with many groups in my mind is " the way things should be done" and what their actual goals are. Like it has with religion and many other beliefs it has caused separation between pro-cannabis groups or users trying to start a group. I think the solution thought up in the other thread of a single conglomerate group split into sub-sections is something that can work to solve what has been a potential issue in the past and it will also mean that more people will be able to slot themselves into hel…

Ok ive been thinking and reading through the Australian constitution and i was thinking. If ya cant beat em join em. They refer to god several times i noticed and religious freedom. Then it occurred to me the bible and transcripts from decades and centurys ago promote cannabis use based on the same god and the same jesus that the constitution is refering to. Then it occurred to me we can create own own denomination and be free to use our wonderful cannabis plant as god intended. some acts from the constitution and some demonination material for us http://www.cannabisculture.com/backissues/cc11/christ.html so what ya think do we have a shot or what

Ok this is what I don't understand if bongs are illegal then why does everyone keep selling them like at off ur tree they are clearly selling bongs that look different to the bongs before they were made illegal but operate pretty much the same and they call them oil pourers i've seen them at afew tobacconists aswell... So how is this legal clearly its a bong yeah you might be able to use it for pouring oil but no one will use it for that purpose....

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-46...d-cannabis.html Now TEN cabinet ministers admit: 'We smoked cannabis' OK this was some time ago, and I know there are many more of these. So lets build the evidence that shows cannabis does no long term harm, unless they are all admitting mental imparment or brain damage while serving in office. This will be very useful information and will add to the growing evidence of the hypocracy and lies by governments around the world.

Source: http://www.hoboes.com/FireBlade/Editorials/Legalize/ by Tom++, June 27, 1995 From the Talk.Politics.Drugs Usenet newsgroup You support robberies and assaults on innocent people. The high prices of drugs caused by prohibition force many drug addicts to turn to robbery in order to pay for their drugs. Legalization would drop drug prices. Drug users would no longer need to rob/assault innocent people in order to support their drug habit. This violence against innocent people would end if drugs were legalized. You support clogging our prisons and jails with nonviolent people. Nearly 50% of all people in prison and jail are serving time for nonviolent dru…

I suddenly realised tonight in a smoky haze that Thomas Jefferson is to blame for the whole cannabis Prohibition thing. He was a Cannabis grower and user and the silly bugga sat down and wrote the American Bill of Rights, there by pissing off the bigots and would be tyrants who vowed immediately never to allow this sort of thing to happen again EVER. They then set out to ban the plant they blamed for his "Evil" thoughts of rights for all. How dare he!!

<h3 class="r">AM: 7TH LIONEL MURPHY MEMORIAL LECTURE by Professor Paul Wilson</h3> This is a PDF and simply will not play nice and allow cut and paste. However this is perhaps one of the best documents from anyone in a long time and this was 1993. We really could use a lot of what he says in this for our own fight against the governments.
