heh thought this was pretty funny, with the huge amounts of people having their say on Colin's latest brainwave on www.perthnow.com.au and probably more than 90% of the posts against it and 48% of the poll (out of 2000+) against it - what does a media website do??? Run this bullshit -

In 1996, voters in California approved a referendum that made it legal for the first time in decades in the US for people to consume cannabis for medicinal purposes. More than a dozen states have followed suit since and several others - the most recent of which is Massachusetts - have approved laws decriminalising the possession of small amounts of the drug. Now, there are moves afoot in California to go further to fully legalise marijuana. Evidence of the impact that the approval of medicinal marijuana has had on some areas of California is clear in Oakland. Across the bay from San Francisco, it has come to be known as Oaksterdam, in a nod to the symbolic global …

Cannabis Has Always Played an Important Role in Religion I read Jacob Sullum's article 'Can Smoking Marijuana be Considered a Religion?!' with some interest, as I myself currently have a case against the Canadian Government in response to their refusal to grant me an exemption for my own spiritual use of cannabis. As well, the historical role of the religious use of cannabis has been a subject I have personally researched for 20 years, having written 3 books on the subject, Green Gold the Tree of Life: Marijuana in Magic and Religion (1995); Sex, Drugs, Violence and the Bible (2001); and the forthcoming Cannabis and the Soma Solution (2010); as well as dozens of publish…

Found this little piece on the interweb thing Why the unlikeliest of states—ours—should legalize marijuana. by William Martin/ http://www.texasmonthly.com IN THE EARLY YEARS of the twentieth century, as they poured across the border into Texas, Mexican immigrants brought with them a familiar and cheap intoxicant: cannabis, which they called marihuana (in those days, it was spelled with an h instead of a j). Perhaps because they were young, predominantly male, and away from home—strong correlates of troublesome behavior—they were seen as lacking appropriate inhibition, especially when they came to town on weekends. Cerveza may have been more culpable, but cannabis made…

museummouse Cannabisculture Internationally known cannabis activist and businessman Marc Emery turned himself over to the British Columbia Provincial courts today waiting extradition to the US for pleading guilty to conspiracy to manufacture cannabis. Marc will be serving a five year sentence in a deal struck with the DEA which also had co-defendants Micheal Rainey and Greg Williams receive 5 years probation but no jail time. The Canadian Justice Minister Rob Nicholson has yet to sign the extradition order and supporters are hoping that he refuses but that is unlikely since Canada has never refused to sign an order for the US. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss213/muse…
