I used to support NORML and “High Times”, now that High Times comes out with “Move on .org” as a legitimate political concern, and sees the Pro Life movement as controversial, I no longer can.

Your useless brother #95 william is exactly what the government wants. There are family members, for other reasons not shared here, that I’ve had to walk away from. They won’t listen to one ounce of reason concerning Prohibition. They’re losers too, so there’s only Limited contact with them.

And as far as billboard time slots and commercials, have them prepared ahead of time. Run another contest NORML for talented people to donate their goods.

A simple, and hopefully effective slogan would something to the tune of: We’ve all been lied to about cannabis, start asking why.

The only way to WIN the game is to JOIN the game. We need to become Cannibis incorporated.
Didn’t I hear that weed was the second or third largest cash crop in America? Why are we not slapping the faces of our EMPLOYEES with a dick that big?
Cannabusiness needs to organize itself into an evolving, ever growing political and business power base that no longer begs at the feet of the masters for those few morsels of freedom.
We have legitimate businesses. Businesses need banks. Banks need even larger instruments,like mutual funds,etc. to grow their business.
If we compete with the mainstream on a level playing field they will soon enough discover that they never had a chance of stopping us. That must be why it’s always so damn hard to get the field level.

I gave up marijuana for the job. The union doesn’t support even medical marijuana liscenses. Now I go to work every day with a hangover. I certainly affects my productivity. My alcohol consumption? through the roof

And about the previous editor’s note… there didn’t use to be any freedom of speech cause of action for groups like Citizens United, either. I’m not saying you’ll get a court to rule in your favor on a first amendment claim, but as long as the court just handed down a highly controversial decision premised on the first amendment, you might as well expose their own hypocrisy.

For the love of god, sue. If corporations have the 1st Amendment right to produce smear movies about political candidates right before an election, then NORML has the 1st Amendment right to buy ad space that is regularly used for more “political” messages than theirs (and probably a Freevibe ad or two in its time)…
