How to legalise marijuana

[Web Smoker]

I believe we cannot make pot legal through politics. what we need to do is educate the USA. What we need is the help from the media. Americans watch more TV then any other nation therefore for every ad against marijuana there needs to be 2 in its place promoting marijuana. American needs to know how it cures cancer, cures Asama, and doesnt destroy any brain cells. AMERICAN NEEDS TO BE EDUCATED and then pot will be legal

curing cancer...well I dont know about curing it but yea I get your whole Idea thing is its way too difficult to put something on the tv to promote it because of the censors and all that whatnot... as long as they can keep America believing its lies then it will never get to be legal its going to take an ASS Load of people to rally up and sign petitions and stuff like that I do my part everyday by handing out little pamplets that tell the REAL information about marijuana and its many uses and the products that can be made from it always sitting down with people and talking about it...hell got my grandmother smoking it...there are strength in numbers.....

Exactly. Voting has never brought freedom. The government will only give us as much freedom as it needs to keep us from revolting. Voting didn't oust the British monarchy, voting didn't end slavery, voting didn't end Prohibition, and voting didn't bring civil rights. All those things were accomplished in the streets by regular people putting pressure on the system until it caved to their demands. If weed is ever going to be legalized, it's not going to be by voting the right people into power. Remember, Jimmy Carter wanted to decriminalize it, but voting for him didn't get the job done. We need a concentrated movement centered around educating the public and carrying out civil disobedience. Imagine if all the pot smokers were as vocal as those fighting for civil rights were. Imagine if nobody was afraid to hit the bong in public anymore. It would be legalized in an instant.

how can it be legal to have anti pot commercials but not pro-pot commercials? we need to start pressuring the media kick up a stir, its absolutely ridiculous that they've got pot by the balls without even letting it defend itself

I really don't think that the public mainstream really knows how rediculous the laws have become on marijuana. We all seem to agree that the tv is the biggest way to spread the word so imagine this; in our own communities, when a person is given a sentance like that of Randy Brush (3 yrs for growing 4 plants) that a protest is held outside the courthouse. Make it legal with the permits, etc...and THEN it would attract attention...News media!

You get enough "News at 6:00" showing some poor cancer patient getting incarcerated for years just for growing weed and this will hit the heart strings of 90% of the people. Disappointment and sympathy gradually turns into anger which leads to more of the anti-marijuana people having a change of heart.

Civil disobedience will only follow with a "I told you so" from the anti groups....remember the past because this is part of the mind set that we have to overcome! Gandhi faced larger obsticles and accomplished his mission.:thumbsup:

there are some billionaires funding the pro pot movement aren't there?? where is all that money going? i've never once seen a pro-pot TV ad

[mont974x4]

Good question. Maybe it's going to help fund campaigns for sympathetic politicians? funding studies to prove legitimate uses of cannabis? Start co-ops in MM states? Fund pro-cannabis org's like NORML and ASA?
