"If you take away half of their money, it will hurt them," said William Martin, a sociology professor at Rice University who studies drug abuse and government policy. "You are not going to break them, but you will hurt them."

If you read this far and didn't read conniepae's great quotes, please don't miss them. And the salient point by introspective is our right to our body and our cannabis is not to be misguided by others. We could use more assertive posturing from our cannabis front. Lets hear it for cannabis and the Cannabis Congressman Sal Dennison. visit http://www.saldennison.blogspot.com

First and foremost is this; weed is a natural plant that grows around the world, it has been a part of mankind for millennium during which it was used for a multitude of reasons. It has been used for shelter, clothing, medicine etc...and yes dare i say; for the sheer pleasure of lighting up and chillin out...
I don't know about the rest of you guys, but as i see it...no government or person has the right to tell me or anyone else which plant that nature has provided we may or may not partake of...in doing so (governmental prohibition) they assume unto themselves the exclusive rights of your body...not even the barbarians and tyrants throughout the ages would have assumed such powers...the laws breach the most fundamental of human and personal rights of all free people, and that is to do unto ones body as one sees fit...

"Prohibition... goes beyond the bound of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded" -Abraham Lincoln
"Two of my favorite things are sitting on my front porch smoking a pipe of sweet hemp, and playing my Hohner harmonica." - Abraham Lincoln (from a letter written by Lincoln during his presidency to the head of the Hohner Harmonica Company in Germany)
"Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth & protection of the country."
- Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President"Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed and sow it everywhere."
- George Washington, U.S. President"We shall, by and by, want a world of hemp more for our own consumption."
- John Adams, U.S. President"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marihuana in private for personal use... Therefore, I support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all Federal criminal penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of marihuana." - Jimmy Carter, U.S. President
