   Hi, I dont know if you people find this as interesting as i do but i am constantly wondering about the dope trade. I mean where i am from MJ is an expensive business to stay in for lack of suppliers etc blah blah blah. But its intensity is picking up most people are taking on the role of a heroin junkie basically to feed there habit if you know what i mean. Its only dope yet people go crazy for it over here and yeah spend alot of money on it. My thought to make a long story short are. The supply of MJ is it coming from a organised sydicate of some sort. Or something like that. SMuggling operations etc. Or is it just that the majority of people are growing their own and pe…

   MJ legalisation CD

   I think it would be a good idea to put together a CD with a wide range of info and arguments on why MJ should be legalised. It could contain written contributions, and links to many articles and websites which deal with this issue. Kind of a comprehensive education tool for those who have not yet seen the light. Once it is put together, it would be quite cheap to run off and send to polititions, activist groups, media, or whoever. It could be setup as a very simple menu type format with sections that cover the major issues around legalisation. Here's my thoughts: 1. The relative harmlesness and safety of MJ, especially compared with other legal and prescribed …

   Members of the Network Against Prohibition (NAP) have been outraged by revelations that hundreds of Territorians missed out on work because of past illicit drug use. The claims, by the Murdoch Sunday Territorian come days after an announcement that 65 people had been purged from the Australian Defence Force for the same reason, many from Robertson Barracks south of Darwin. ConocoPhillips, the company responsible for building the new Gas Plant at Wickham Point in Darwin harbour, told the Sunday Territorian that 40% of NT residents who applied for jobs on the project were rejected because of failed drug and alcohol tests. NAP spokesperson Gary Meyerhoff said “According …

    THE STORY OF THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The shivering grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The shivering grassho…

    Hiya all! This is my first post here(I think!) A little story for ya'all... My partner has an arthritic condition, and spinal injuries sustained through her ex-husbands inability to control himself :angry: I put her onto 'erb about 3 years ago and after securing the right clone,she was able to function 200% better than before! Although the legal risks involved were too high, so she has discontinued treatment and has re-lapsed. This fool (ex-husband) grows copious amounts of 'commercial bud' for re-sale,we know this as he used to weigh up and sell in front of the kids....but doesn't contribute anything but hassles and threats to us and our 3 kids (not that we want …

I reckon this shit is fucking wrong eh, they seem to think pot smokers and junkys are the same thing, Syringe Festival?? I think thats just fucked, a fucking diesease festival, and the poster for it with a bunch of junkys directing a syringe at a cop car, what are they trying to do there?? force cops to take drugs or give them aids/overdose, I dunno, who can understand a junkies mind. Maybe I sound like a christian right now, but I dont think a pot leaf should ever be seen next to a fucking syringe, I got nothing against opiates, thats your own business, but using syringes to take d…

    Hey, Does anyone think Bob Carr will start his announced medical cannabis trial before he loses office? I suspect the Liberals/Nats will bury it if they get in next time.
