I figured that would get some looks!...the headline means that we must free Cannabis from the clutches of the DEA and the Ghost of Anslinger. This is my first thread post, so be gentle.

I just wrote an E-mail to Michael Moore insisting that he document the BC3 Extradition hearing/trial/imprisonment. I am pasting in the letter so all can see what it said. I gently suggest that others email him as well. Pretend he is a congress person who may actually get the message through his handlers. Nothing is ever too much of a long shot. My only suggestion is that if you do write him, that you maintain a polite and mature attitude. As far as decriminalization goes, it is always much better to put a suit on than to wave a bong at somebody (unless they are a stoner).

Dear Mr. Moore,

As an amateur filmmaker and seeker of truth, I respect your tenacity as an artist, journalist, and muckraker greatly. I also acknowledge the power you have to force subjects into the forefront of the American/World psyche.

I have not seen your latest film, Sicko (I cannot afford the ticket because I have no health insurance and I am saving up to get my teeth cleaned), but it got me thinking about another world health/human rights crisis that would be perfect as a topic for your next film: The continued criminalization of Marijuana, especially where medical Marijuana and compassionate access is concerned.

With the upcoming trial of the BC3 http://www.cannabisculture.com , the stage is set for your directorship. If you were not already aware, the United States Government is fighting to extradite three Canadian Cannabis activists (Marc Emery, Greg Williams and Michelle Rainy), for the crime of exporting Marijuana seeds, though the true crime--as it always is-- is activism.

The extradition hearing is scheduled to begin on November 5, 2007, so there is not much time to prepare to capture a lot of this on film as it happens. The BC3 face ten years to life in prison in the United States. Please be your usual self and do not let this extradition hoax end up as back page news. If they are extradited by the American strong arm, and subsequently imprisoned, I do not see any hope for the continuation of democracy...and I am usually quite optimistic. Please continue to help us maintain our constantly eroding freedom.

The educated Marijuana community knows that Marijuana is not a drug that causes youth to run wild, but is in fact a plant medicine capable of healing the nations in many ways. We, as activists, medical patients, and simple pot smokers fear that we may never have a voice as long as the public continues to view Marijuana users as deviant, unpatriotic, and criminal. While every segment of society has its bad apples, for some reason the good Cannabis apples (the overwhelming majority) are rarely paraded for the public eye to see!

Additionally, I offer my services in any way that might be necessary. (I would make the film myself, but I would never be able to rally forces in time, and nobody would ever see it--not the case with your films. Additionally, I have a medical Marijuana patient to take care of). I can carry a camera, or make sandwiches or help with pro-Marijuana propaganda, and there is a vast community chomping at the bit to come to your aid. I thank you for your time, consideration, and especially for your body of work.

Sincerely,
Tea Party

P.S. I am posting this on Cannabis.com activist forum, suggesting and expecting that other Marijuana activists will follow suit by contacting you with their own letters...Sorry! I will continue to write my congresspeople, but you seem get things done, so I thought, "Why not?"
