if you think that way then you think the turn out of the general election was legit and represented the way the majority of irish people felt..... WHICH IS NOT THE CASE!

It just shows how lazy and laid back us Irish are, Like we are known around the world for it. Also mixed in with lazyness is that we feel like we do not have a voice, it could have something to do with 700-800 years of oppression from the british that we can't really think for ourselves..

So 400 people marching does not make much of a difference but it made more of a difference then anything you have ever done for cannabis. And it might have started 20-30 people growing which has a snowball effect on informing people about cannabis.

And if the snowball effect then goes back to the march the numbers might increase dramatically and then suddenly the law might be loosened. I think we are 20 years away from any politician taking the side of cannabis users but If we can inform the Irish public at large about how safe it is compared to other legal drugs like alcohol then the law might take a more relaxed approach to cannabis and a more strict approach on dangerous drugs and crime.
The numbers that turned out at the march DOES reflect how people feel about
the situation... This is a CANNABIS march were talking about,, NOT an election...

They are two totally UNRELATED issues,, so to point out the obvious,, one is about electing
n00bs to run the country and the other is about trying to get those same n00bs to listen to
a bunch of stoners about making our "DRUG" of choice legal...

And i say DRUG because most people are of the
opinion that Drugs are Drugs,, coke,, smack,, cannabis,, and all the other narcotics
are no different in many many peoples minds... As far as there concerned DRUGS
are bad nasty news and are the root cause of all the shootings and stabbings
that they here about on an ever more increasing frequency!!

"it could have something to do with 700-800 years of oppression from the british that we can't really think for ourselves.."

What's the above bullsh1t all about???? Can YOU not "think for yourself" ??
Because i certainly can!! I am the one that makes a decision when it needs
to be made... Do you have to depend on someone else to decide for you??
No,, i reckon... So what's with the oppression crapola...

It MIGHT have started 20-30 people growing,, it also MIGHT NOT HAVE...
It's all well and good "assuming" that the march MAY have made a couple of
folks think about starting to grow,, and if it did then good for them...

I've only to walk around the corner from my house and see the boyo's standing
there selling upwards of a kilo of sh1tsoapbar a night... And they don't give a
fcuk because the people selling and buying think it's fine hash... Yeah,, soap is
fine alright,, when your using it as briquettes for the fire... Assholes...

One final point... You don't know me from adam,, so how the fcuk do you know
ANYTHING about what i have and/or have not done for cannabis ??
Just another one of your "assumptions" based on nothing whatsoever!!

Have a good one!!
