WHO HAS THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE FOR AN ENTIRE NATION OF PEOPLE when our country is based on the PEOPLE HAVING THE RIGHT OF CHOICE. Yet congress, which is suposed to be the peoples reps couldnt be further from that original appointment. We NO LONGER have our rights givin to us by the constitiution, I cant tell a cop to go f himself without going to jail, i cant even step outside my house and have a beer out front without some over zealous local goverment agent (cop) giving me a ticket and threatening me, Hell I cant even come home from work and get assulted by a group of intoxicated idiots who are on parole without being the one questioned handcuffed taken to jail and im now going to court because of it even though it was on my property (private with no tresspassing signs ect posted) because i was sober and kicked the shit out of two drunkin idiots who assulted me befor i got out of my truck, on my property im suffering the legal repercussions. all i have to say is, F this goverment, F obama, F any president prior to and F you if you got a problem with it. Because these are the facts. Stand up and Man up or Shut up and sit down, If you've all got an issue with it then do something about it, insted of this crap online do like me, forget protesting (you can and most liekly will goto jail for it without the proper permits) Call your states goverment representitive and raise hell. THATS WHY THEY ARE THERE. We need to take back our freedoms and put our goverment in check. im tired of being harassed, arrested and tormented by the goverment for self defense or a natural herb that clearly has NO ILL EFFECTS.

See, most of the government (Congress, state legislature, etc..) are filled of pre-Baby-Boomers. The most powerful people at around 70 years of age. They are making the middle-aged people like Bill Clinton and Obama think twice about pot. Give it 10-15 years, and basically all of the pre-baby-boomers (who were over 25 years old at the beginning of the 1960's) will finally be gone! With the majority starting to accept marijuana, we'll go back to the spiritual Biblical times of smoking pot in churches and worshipping God. I mean, if gay marriages are being legalized in some states, marijuana is definitely going to be legalized in roughly the same period. Just like with blacks being able to vote, and we knew that it was a matter of time before women could vote too. Heck, the Netherlands is a beautiful model. Why cant Belgium follow suit? And Denmark perhaps? It would help the horrible suicide rate in Sweden, by making them mellow (their beer doesnt seem to help). Pot use in Canada keeps on growing and growing, even the cops there are smoking it. Once, I went to a pot parade in Toronto, and we all smoked pot on the streets in downtown right in front of all those cops. I mean, if pot were legal, it would get rid of most corrupt police--since many of them smoke pot themselves. It would calm them down and satisfy them, not having to bust anybody with pot so that they can take it, smoke it, and steal the cash for it. It's the only way for those cops to get their hands on weed, by going after the lower-class people more often than the ethical norm. Heck, if we all had access to pot, it would satisfy us from wanting the hard drugs. It would satisfy us from needing most of the prescription drugs, that only make us completely broke ($400 a month on Rx drugs for an average middle-aged citizen). Legal pot can be $100 a month tops.. or even cheaper if ingested by cookies or brownies. There's a wonderful movie on pot.. like "Super Size Me", but rather "Super High Me"! Watch it yourself, and find out the effects of 30-day trails!! http://www.blockbuster.com/catalog/movieDetails/374092 When the pre-Baby-Boomer generation dies off completely, there would no longer be nearly as many powerful old-farties to criminalize marijuana.

NORML is in no way condescending or jerks I'm just being a typical everyday schmuck that is tired. In fact, I am the jerk for posting the remark b4 this one. See, I can take it. I love NORML and I value their work and everything that they stand for. If they posted the response b4 this one my point should be taken. Hope you all have a sense of humor no matter how jacked up mine may seem. (:P) I’m just playing I’m just trying to prove that no matter who you are you have a voice and you should use it.
