O.K. in order for this to work we need mass media for one. If we got enough support probly Bill Maher would advertise it. Also think he would be a great Figurehead for it concidering his media exposure and link in goverment 2 we need to get the backing of the organizations that already exsit and get them to agree to back and support (Norml, ect). 3rd NO VIOLENCE OF ANY KIND FORM OR FASHION. All it would take is a small fight of any kind and we just proved their point for them. We would need a moment like in the 60's where that girl put a flower in the barrel of that solders gun. 4th a one day work walkout Ok.... Any more than that honestly will backfire. Even if we can get a special sesson of congress ... Nothing in our goverment moves fast. Then you have no job and they can say that you are less likely to hold stable empoyment due to the effect of the "drug". I mean they built up the hype to get it illegal in the first place (reefer maddness rings to mind. Their will be alot to do just to get started. I would subjest getting RIU to advertise it... then move to other forums online. But I mean shit if that fat man dancing to some wierd ass music canget famous (numa numa guy on you tube) this could be done. With planning and work.

Exactly my point..... the hardest part is getting the first number of people to back it to take it to the table with the larger organizations! Thats the stage its in now.... the hardest work and planning is now... everything else will do itself... Im that confident.

But ya I am down with it. But we must be careful. Honestly the guy who posted that video is on to something. But itneeds to be more serious. We need it to say we are average citizens fighting becuase of a unconituional injustice being comitted against good citizens. We must come out serious and with the FACTS. If we come out as a bunch of stoners crying injustice we will never get off the drawing board.

Yeah... I have been thinking of some good phrases for another video.... just need to string them together in the right order and with the right background video/pictures etc. It would have to be about the length of a song (a really really bad ass song for this kind of video).... so any suggestions for a good song?

need someone with a good voice to read the facts out. Lets face it the majority of Americans are too lazy to read on their own. We would rather be told to do something than figure it out on our own. Not downing us as a people, but complacentcy is our worse enemy.

I was thinking about having the song for background and someone speaking above that while different things are flashed across the screen (families being raided, sick people arrested, articles about it etc. etc.) .....

This isn't directly related, but I thought would be a good opportunity to bring to the attention of those who have yet to see it.
WashingtonWatch.com - H.R. 5843, The Act to Remove Federal Penalties for the Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults
or to get the gist of it "
Act to Remove Federal Penalties for the Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults - Prohibits the imposition of any penalty under an Act of Congress for the possession of marijuana for personal use or for the not-for-profit transfer between adults of marijuana for personal use.
Deems the possession of 100 grams or less of marijuana as personal use (one ounce or less for a not-for-profit transfer between adults).
Allows the imposition of a civil penalty under the Controlled Substances Act for the public use of marijuana if such penalty does not exceed $100."
If you go to the NORML website it also information on the act as well as an area to contact your local representative in support of this.
Also the NORML website should be a good resource for information for your video!

yep... all good info.... get out there and vote people. That is a great step forward.... but falls short of outright legallization, which is the goal of the one day movement.

The "I hate pot" generation is getting old and dying off and they know it.
Let's put some thought into this, my whole life I've been threatened, "don't smoke weed or you'll go to jail" now those same fuckers are depending on you and I to pay taxes to fund their retirement. Whoa, back the truck up? What was that? You want SSI after ruining how many lives for having a joint?
They know they have to appease us before it's too late for them. If they wait until they all age out of politics it'll be to late to protect their own asses. I say any politician that voted against pot doesn't get a pension.
they fucked us first, but we can fuck them the best.....

nope..... not for another 4-8 years... not enough support from big business and the banks, they can't grip it yet.

I've been readin around online and support from the population has reached 65%. It's not long and those who don't support it will be losing their offices.
I'm thinking big business and the banks need to wake up and fast, shit is going downhill a lot faster than I thought it would. You could kind of smell this whole thing coming for the past couple of years.
