Chronic City: Onward Through The Fog -- Marijuana And Health

@WEEDMASTER on twitter says "(News) Chronic City: Onward Through The Fog -- Marijuana And HealthSF Weekly Blogs, CAArnold Schwarze.."

More and more Americans are finding their voices. Arianna Huffington wrote a great article calling for a war on the war on drugs. Now that's change!

People are coming out of the closet and speaking up in support of change. That's a giant step! One giant step for mankind.

In the 'Land of the Free', one would think people would be free to speak up, stand up for justice. But, we have been at war for decades now. There have been many casualties in the war on drugs. Our prisons have been turned into profit makers for investors. That's just crazy. People profiting from destroying lives in an un-just war, based on spin, disinformation and lies.

Find the courage to stand up and be counted. Facts matter. As more and more people find the courage to speak up, the conversation will move away from spin and on to facts!

As Jacks article has pointed out, much is known now about cannabis. Any one see any red flags popping up with all this research? We killing anybody off with this? Even the heavy users? The folks with medical problems, when they're actually allowed to use it, are singing the praises; not falling over dead. Heard of any communities that have turned into junkies?

My point is that this point has already been made. I've said this before and it's worth repeating: This isn't a battle of good/bad - harm vs no harm - this is a battle of public opinion. Public opinion can be swayed and our govt is a past master. If we fail in our bid for public support - or at least acquience - then we lose. period. Nothing drastic, we'll just be allowed to fade into unimportance. The fed will throw a few bones to those states that insist on it and it will just die down. That's their objective folks.

So debate is good. The more the better. Keep sending those emails and making those phone calls. Go to meetings, or if there aren't any organize one. In a guerilla war folks, you win by refusing to die and refusing to engage in battles you can't win. And this is a war; make no mistake about it. "They" are never going to do it. "We" have to do it.

for real, people really gotta stop believing everything theyre told, especially anything from the media.

I think the thing I find bothersome about this is that the information has always been out there for people to read and learn but the political agenda of the "Just Say No" crowd has been to ignore the facts and deny the truth for the sake of not being proven totally wrong.

...again.

The" Fog" being all the bullshit spewed by opponents of marijuana legalization.
