I posted this on OG back in the day and encouraged people who felt the same way to share this with people. Thought I would do the same again. :D
- Take Care
Yes, I am a marijuana user. But you won't see me in hippie clothing or acting
in a manner that would consider me a drug abuser.
People trust, respect, and confide in me, they value my opinions.
I choose only to tell those I trust for the fear that my beliefs might bring me to jail
Yes, these are my beliefs.
The belief that no government has the right to tell me what to do on my own
land providing I hurt no one. Men like Thomas Jefferson once had this belief.
I ponder if they too would live in fear today.
The belief that marijuana has healed me physically, mentally, spiritually, and made me more compassionate. Your current laws show hypocrisy by allowing the sick to take harmful and addictive drugs, yet you deem a harmless plant natural to our soils illegal for use.
The belief that marijuana can be used responsibility to change lives positively. I speak for no other man or women but I assure you it has changed mine for the better.
The belief that money which could be used to better our people is instead used to convict
men for having the same beliefs as I. I watch as murderers and rapist roam free after short sentences while people convicted of marijuana sit in their cells with their families
left to deal with lifeâ??s troubles.
The belief that your agenda far exceeds keeping the people safe. Alcohol and tobacco kill thousands of us each year while no death reports can be pointed solely to marijuana yet all but the last are perfectly legal.
The belief that you have spent the last 70 years spreading lies about this plant to the people. It causes death, it destroys your brain cells, it causes lack of motivation, it will make you insane, and other statements are all proven lies.
You believe in lies, deception, and telling us you know whatâ??s best for us. You have raped the very ideals our founding fathers built this country upon. No longer does the government only serve to protect us from foreign threats. Instead you protect us from the truth and control our liberties. The very same liberties our founding father fought to defend.
Yes, I am a marijuana user.
My beliefs make me a criminal but they will not put my spirit in chains.
Sadness comes over me knowing I can never express my beliefs in pride without
the risk of persecution. But you will not stop us, we will continue to believe.
This is my marijuana manifesto.
