$25-$50, sending a message about our cause... adds up to bongs if you ask me.
You know where I can get 4 bongs for $25 - $50???? SWEET!!!!
Remember the donation will cover ALL your politicians, 2 senators, 1 representative and the president, not just the president ....
Legislation would require MORE than just the President.
A bill has to be introduced to the House or Senate, it has to be passed in BOTH houses, THEN the President has to sign it. We have to cover 536 Politicians to get it done.
That's our BIG problem is if we get the President to sign off GREAT... but it has to pass by a majority in both the house and senate ... If we pander to our very few supporters we get nowhere. We have to convince 218 representatives and 51 senators and 1 President to legalize OR 261 Representatives and 60 senators to make it veto proof.
Millions of dollars have been dumped into convincing them that Marijuana isn't bad or at a minimum that it's not 'that bad.' Trying to convince them it's GOOD with Hemp based product and environmentally friendly goods has failed. Up playing the 'qualities' of Cannabis has failed.
We need to convince them that the draconian laws are unconstitutional, illegal and unethical. We have to promote it as a human right and a freedom. The Stoners with science methodology has failed for 5 decades now. We need to convince them in mass that we don't care about the science (that's for the masses) but we care about the people.
We need a singular united front speaking at once in very short, very simple, very effecient terms that we will no longer tolerate being victimized by our government. We've already PROVEN that hemp is better than cotton, paper, and every other fiber out there. We've already PROVEN that marijuana is safer than alcohol, cigarettes, and in some cases our own food. We've proven it's a superior pain killer and much safer than many chemical medicens legally on the market. What's left to prove? How much more irrefutable evidence do we need to provide? There's not much evidence left to present.
We need to stand united as a people, a sheer force.
I heard the idea of a 'million man toke.' I'm sorry, maybe I'm way too casual of a smoker to understand that but here's my thoughts on it.
If 1,000,000 people try to attend a toke fest on the steps of the white house (laughs) then I think it's safe to say that roughly 250,000 to 300,000 will end up in jail on the way there. They'll get pulled over for some reason, cops will be on edge waiting for smokers to drive through and searches will be rampant. So almost 1/3 of the attendees will get imprisoned on the way there. Then account for the 'hotboxed' cars that don't get caught by police but get stuck in the Denny's cycle of never being sober (Dude where's my car style). I bet another 1/8 get lost there. Then account for the fact that all the million X marches have really been closer to 500,000 and we're down to under 150,000 total. Then there's the motivation. Some people, like me, would love to attend but have neither the time nor the money to do a trek across country without risking our jobs and mortgages. Then there's the fact that some will never make it off the couch. Next thing you know there are only 20 tokers there on the day and they easily are rounded up and hauled off for possession. It simply won't work. My wife suggested inviting Phish (if they're still playing) to triple the attendance.
Then when it's all said and done everyone leaves and the politico's giggle and ignore everything and nothing changes except we had fun one day.
My idea is MUCH more drastic and no one has to do anything but log in and donate a small amount of money that ultimately will just filter back into the economy as no single person will be 'collecting' it unlike 'not for profit organizations' this is 'profit free exhibition.'

who stopped and said 'Whoa, that might just work.' My botanist stopped long enough to put down his pipe which to my knowledge hasn't happened since he was 20.
