legalise cannabis/protest/would you?

[whitestalkslongwalks]

[my son has pushed some buttons here,But man i want him to understand that me speaking up for the legalisatoin of our beloved plant would cuase me untold problems.
1. i would risk the chance of losing my medicatoin and have to buy the poison that is sold on the streets in the uk(sprayed with silicon) hermied or whatever other shit has been added the it.
2 Others would be persicuted for me trying to releave the pain caused by my conditoin, ie my younger kids(the type of freinds she has parents would make their kids cut ties with her).
3 My landlord would throw me on the street.
4 My customers would take their bussiness else were would want to deal with the evil drug grower.
5 would go to prison due to previous convictoins.
All this for trying to releave my pain and that of other meidical users who i give their medicatoin for free.That is the state of the mentality of the goverment who run my country.
I agree totaly with evrything stinky attic says but my son thinking of me as a hypocratic asshole has really pulled the right strings .Should i f*@&k the consequencies and do my bit or would my input really make any of a differance to the movement? then again if everyine thought like that nothing would get done? he(my son) reckons that if every weed user in the uk medical or recreatoinal stood there ground and took to the streets protesting the goverment would have to act.
Any one think this would be the case?
Stinky i also agree with the statement you made about those who grow in there parents house without permisoin are very imature and have know place putting others at risk.I beleave( though this may not be a popular view) that youngsters should not experiment with cannabis until they are over 18 as i beleave that cannabis abuse at a young age especialy while the brian is still developing can do themself and their mind lasting damage. cannabis is devfenetly not a drug to be ubused while young as it can exagerate adolecant problems tenfold(only my opinion )leading to phsycological problems that can have a lasting affect.
On the subject of commercial growers.There are commercial growers who care about the quality of there product but sadly they are far and few between most just are intresting in the money they can make and the quality comes second and some just dont care about the damage their product can do to users medical or recreatoinal.come on spraying ur product with silicon beads to make it weigh more that is just down right evil.
remember people always be safe.the postman.

i hear you; you have a lot to loose man; honestly, if i was in your shoes i would unfortunately hold my peace. it breaks my heart to say it, but i would.

me on the otherhand, i don't NEED cannabis for medical issues (at least not on your level), i have no prior convictions etc.


don't feel bad. be furious that you have to hold your peace because of our unbelievably fucked up government, but don't blame yourself. good luck with your son. they think they know everything. one day he'll look back and realize what a little shit he was hopefully

i absolutely do. it's convincing every single cannabis user to join together and demonstrate together that's the problem it's the old "why should i vote, what does one vote matter" thing though; i really don't know if i'd be willing to do a high profile demonstration now that i'm going to start growing

for example, here in boulder, CO; on 420 we have a big smoke-out on the university. i think it might be the biggest in the nation, not sure. anyway, if i wasn't growing, i'd be there, but last year they took pics and put people up online, offering $50 if people would identify them for "trespassing". because the field was conveniently "closed" that day. the worst part is that they had to end up shelling out loads of rewards because spinless mother-fuckers actually turned people in. under an ounce of weed is a $100 slap on the wrist here, but growing is heavy shit no matter where you are. i can't put myself out there now, and alas, i do believe i won't go to 420 this year, and it sucks

you can do things anonymously, i think the most important thing is to encourage folks to think for themselves. you can do that anonymously online for example.
