FREE MARC !!! :thumbsup: :dance: :D :stoned: show your support for real heros, not those who only play them:thumbsup:
what has he done?? He's probably the most influential person towards law reform... cannibisculture.com?? nothing rings a bell??
daima don't get the bob dylan reference??
But it is him on tonight right??
He is a memebr of NORML, and has done a lot in Canada towards the legalization of cannabis. Also, he is a seed distrubuter, and he is looking at a life senstence, for selling seeds. :rolleyes:Quote:

That's why he's so special because it is unfair.
8 months on a prison? 8 fucking months, and someone who sells seeds gets a life sentence. That is fucked up. What a bunch of cunts in government, they have NO FUCKING IDEA. NONE WHATSOEVER!!!! Stupid pricks in government... Thats just made my attitude towards governments about 20 times worse.

Not only that, but he wasn't even allowed to be tried in Canada. He was extradited to the US.Quote:

Just finished watching 60 minutes. Wow! All I can say is wow. This man is a hero. I will be pissed off if this extradite thing goes thru. He is so confident in his beliefs and thats why i like him. He wont try to run or back down.
A decent program. I wish they hadn't used the term "bc bud" to describe the bud grown from the seeds he sells. It blurs the issue between seeds and bud even more. The DEA agent doesn't even differentiate between the two until the end of the program. Anyway, I'm nitpicking. I think to the average viewer it would have been very informative and I hope a couple non-smokers are motivated to learn more.
Marc really deserves everyone's support. He is so open about it all. The DEA agent is confronted with Marc's honesty at one point and there is a pause. It's magic.
i laughed when the DEA refered to him as the Prince of Federal Prison
I caught the tail end of that piece, and think Canada needs to stand up to the DEA and tell it to f-off. If he does wind up getting extradited, I hope it will turn into a HUGE outrage from both countries which will help bring more awareness to the cause.
Also, I am praying that Colorado passes the state-wide initiative in November to decrimilize < 1oz of weed if your over 21. How bad will that piss off the DEA!
No matter how modest a man I am, you gotta love when someone serves you up such a compliment. Thanks man.Quote:

I think they portrayed the D.E.A. as the big bad man, so to say. Not that this will have any great bearing on the vast majority of spin but out by the anti drug folks, but maybe, just maybe this may open some peoples' eyes to these issues.
