Free The Weed Petition.

I think when weed is made legal It will be at coffee shops where they could/will tax it, but as for growing at home i think it would be just like alchol/beer you can make your own but you try to sell they bust you. the governemt can't tax you on growing tomattos peppers tobacco they can tax and will you on selling it.:peace: But it might not keep them from tring but Norml has got an eye for that.

What is the score with tobacco, tobacco is legal right, but to grow it, probably not. You would probably have to pay to be able to get your license to grow.

The only time it will become comletely legal is when the government is happy that they will make their share of it.

I dont get it myself its just a plant ffs, all this fuss over a plant. Its not like human kind created it, it was here before us in some way or another.
 
Maybe i just thought about what nixon did, with the drug act he put in effect classifing each drug and giving them rules and rugulations.
 
There is a huge process involved in making weed legal to the point of public sale the first and Most Important step is for the FDA and the American Pharmalogical society (which is not an organization to my knowledge just a term used to identify pharmacies and drug companies as a whole) to re-class it. It is currently a Class1 Narcotic which means it is a drug with a heavy potential for abuse and serves no medical purpose.( which has already been disproven countless times) the tablet and capsule form (IE marinol, drobinal) Is a Class2 Narcotic which means the potential for abuse is there but so are some medical purposes other class2's are drugs like Lortab's, Percocets, and Xanex. Cocaine and heroin are class1 Narcotics If norml would stop petitioning congress and LEO agencies to legalize it and start pushing the FDA to re-class it say with tobacco or maybe even over the counter meds they would effectively remove the power from the Feds and all law enforcement for that matter to do anything at all about it. I support norml and other similar groups but they are going about it the wrong way the FDA reclasses drugs all the time which is why certain drugs are easier to get prescriptions for than they were say 10 years ago. if it were reclassed then Federal laws would be much easier to change because they would no longer serve a purpose why would something the FDA deems as safe and non addictive be illegal to posses?

Good point but who runs the FDA? The gov't right? I could be wrong but that is what I thought. I wish I could believe the reclassification thing but it would never fly. The common non-smoker isn't really informed like us. Some of them believe the hype. As for cocaine, did you know they use it in medical procedures? It's all about the dollar IMO, just my opinion. Why would the gov't legalize it when the guys with the money make synthetic THC (pharma. companies).
 
I also read a couple of years back that the most likely canidates to grow the plants would be the big tobacco companies like Philip Morris. And I would have to think that you would have to have a license to grow it. The gov't not going to legalize it unless they get something out of it. The federal gov't makes alot of money off the drug trade/drug war it creates jobs etc.
 
Most if not all illegal drugs today were once legal. WHY? because man took over, thats exactly why.
 
but with that being said Im totally about legalizing marijuana. It really does serve it's purpose....So many can benefit from marijuana but yet they are so hooked on painkillers and what not. Its our own people that destroy it for all of us, it has so many reliefs for so many problems, ailments, sicknesses ......you all know what im sayin.....YET we are brought up to think it's wrong. Its a fuckedc up governnment we live under.
 
There is no doubt the government is in control Of the FDA. But in order to legalize it its still HAS to be reclassed as It is Illegal to posses a class I narcotic even if there are no laws that specifically mention it so they could "legalize" weed but without reclassing it still wont be legal.
And yes if it was legalized Big TObacco would most certainly be the largest producer...we can only Pray that there is an American Spirits brand because that would be the only one without dangerous additives
 
Do you guys in the States or elsewhere have a town or an event that is a known gathering place for Pot smokers, In Australia we have a town called Nimbin which is in New South Wales, I have never been there but know people who have and they tell me that you cant walk down the main street and have been walking for more than a minute and you will be approached asking if you need some smoke.
Apparently the Local hippie organization and the local Police have eradicated any Hard Drug Problems through co-operation and the coppers turn a blind eye to small time weed smokers, I have also heard that while small amounts are easy to find for sale, larger supply like even ounces can be nearly impossible to find. I find it fascinating, we have fairly draconian laws here too in relation to Pot but this example makes me ask if an organization or group can be formed in a responsible manner and behave responsibly may be this could be a way around it.
 
yea i know a place like that here...well its just people chillin n smokin..n the police get along wit everone because they just know its weed and since they know that they know we aint going crazy...so they just dont bother..all they do is wave..and soon hopfully it be like that everywere!!
