Obama White House, Eric Holder's Department of Justice Targeting a Holocaust Against Medical Marijuana Caregivers, Growers, Suppliers and Users.
The Department of justice has made it official that they intend on cracking down on anyone involved in the Medical Marijuana industry, regardless of the states laws on Medical Marijuana. Needless to say, this is seriously bad news...question is, can the Medical Marijuana Movement do anything if we continue to sit on our hands...letter writing is NOT WORKING, while media coverage WILL WORK. We wrote letters, contacted our elected officials, prayed, and that DID NOT END THE VIETNAM WAR...taking to the streets, being in the NEWS EVERY FREAKING NIGHT ended that war. It will take that same effort to end the wrongful WAR ON DRUGS, and the sooner we come to this realization, the better off we will all be.
We have 25 million cannabis smokers across America...it is my belief, my contention that we are not going to get any POSITIVE forward movement on Medical Marijuana or on cannabis legalization any time soon unless we organize and MARCH, and I am talking in LARGE NUMBERS. You put half a million people on the streets in say five major cities...New York, Washington, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago would work...and you will see movement and action. You have smaller groups of us picking up our protest signs and taking to the streets, and we will get action. You call a million person Woodstock like SMOKE IN down on Washington, DC, and YOU WILL PUSH THE ISSUE.
How many more people need sent to prison before we all wake up to the reality that drastic actions are required here? The war on drugs has lasted SEVENTY YEARS because WE HAVE ALLOWED IT TO LAST. If states have voted to have LEGAL Medical Marijuana, then they have a duty to PROTECT those citizens in their states that did everything by the books according to state law, and that includes using local, state police, and if necessary the State National Guard to evict the DEA from their cities, to chain shut Federal Court Houses. Arnold has the ability in California to DRAW THE LINE IN THE SAND, but he does not have the balls to do it. That leaves it up to the 420 Community to demand real change, to MARCH FOR OUR CIVIL RIGHTS.
Showing up for sentencing on the 23rd of Charles Lynch...that is all nice and well, but it is NOT GOING TO DO ANY GOOD, he is still going to be handcuffed, dragged up to prison for up to ONE HUNDRED YEARS...chain shut the court house, encircle it in PEACEFUL PROTEST with so many people that the courthouse has no choice but to SHUT DOWN, that will get attention on this issue, give these victims of the goosestepping agents of the DEA a fighting chance for justice. Face it people...in WAR YOU FIGHT, OR YOU LOSE.
Obama is not scaling back the war on drugs, HE IS TURNING UP THE HEAT, the DEA and Eric Holder's Department of Justice are looking for the easy to pluck low hanging fruit, and that low hanging fruit makes every Medical Marijuana user, grower, supplier and caregiver A TARGET in all 13 states that have laws allowing Medical Marijuana use. Charles, Tom Kikuchi, Stephanie Landa, Dustin Costa...how many more of your friends, your compatriots are going to be scooped up by the BLACK HAND of the DEA before you realize this is a HOLOCAUST aimed at and against ten percent of Americans Citizens?
We have how many Pot Smokers on TWITTER? Where are my Budding Bloggers, at least one in every state so that we can network and have INSTANT communications to get stories out? Where is every smoker on Twitter joining up and participating in the Medical Marijuana Society Network? We need to GET SERIOUS PEOPLE, and I hope this Blog Message is the start of a NATIONAL CALL TO ACTION.
Sign up, volunteer, get involved...we need ACTIVIST, and being an ACTIVISTS MEANS DOING SOMETHING BESIDES LIGHTING UP A BLUNT.
Places You Can PLUG IN TOO...we can build the tools, but if 420 Folk do not join and use them, what good are they?

Before you say you are too busy to get involved...what if you are next on the DEA's list as they TARGET OUR COMMUNITY? Short on time...then GIVE MONEY, as it takes money to organize and advertise! Think about it...if every Pot Smoker in America DONATED TEN DOLLARS A MONTH TO THE CAUSE, we would have $250 Million EACH MONTH to wage war against our oppressors...that buys a lot of advertising, hires a lot of lobbyists, and could FUND OUR MARCHES! Yes, I am ANGRY...this war has lasted seventy years, and it is time WE END IT.

NEW YORK MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION MOVEMENT
ReplyDeleteThe marijuana legalization movement in New York is pressing the issue in Albany. Many are pushing to get legislators to pass a medical marijuana bill, but Abigail Storm, Director of C.A.M.P. Citizens Against Marijuana Prohibition, says that's still a violation of people's rights. Her organization makes it clear that the government is committing a crime against the people by perpetuating a lie that marijuana is a danger to public health and safety.
In order for a drug to be on the schedule 1 list it must have no medical value and have a high potential for abuse. Now that many scientific experiments have shown that concentrated doses of THC will kill cancer cells and stop tumors from growing, it is beginning to look like this may be the most powerful medicine in the world. The federal government owns a patent on cannabinoid medicine being used as an anti-inflamitory, and indeed it is the most effective arthritis treatment yet known. The medicinal value having been proven many times over and the potential for abuse idea resting on the belief that regular use is somehow abuse, there is every reason to pull marijuana from the list.
With an emphasis on the natural healing properties of cannabis flowers and the unjust persecution of harmless marijuana users, Storm and her supporters are asking Governor Paterson to protect people's right to grow their own and to release all marijuana prisoners. "It's planting time," says Storm, "and the police in New York State should be focusing on real crimes like corruption." Abigail says that God created marijuana and every other plant to be a benefit to humankind and the world. She says that the Medical Marijuana bill that is being proposed in the Senate is too restrictive and under the Constitutional Law, no police officer has a right to arrest a grower or user for simply possessing marijuana. Taxing and regulating sale of marijuana would be more appropriate, but setting the prisoners free is a top priority. When asked if she thinks it will be legalized soon, she says it's already legally protected by the Constitution and the police who enforce the marijuana laws and the legislators who allow it to continue are the ones committing a crime.
