I'm once again rallying people to my cause...The legalization of Marihuana.
How many of us have sat about and dreamed of what it would take to make weed legal? I'm not talking about the stuper stoned ideas, I mean serious thought out measures that could be used to convince the american public that It would be the greatest thing since sliced fucking bread.
You can use cannibus for so many things it boggles the mind: Clothing, paper, rope, medicine and recreation.
If the south started growing weed instead of cotton they would use less than a quarter of the pesticides currently dumped onto our planet, that poison bugs, fish, birds, and rodents. If the northwest started growing weed for paper instead of trees the amount of clear cutting would drop by almost 40%(this number is WAG, but probably prety close). If the government taxed the sale of weed they'ld make money hand over fist.
If you could go to the corner store and buy a pack of the mythical Marlboro Greens, 20 prerolled fatty joints(call it 20 grams of weed) for $20 to $25 would you? The cost to manufacter that pack would be under $2 per pack, sold to the store for $5, and then taxed $15. I would, in fact I'ld have to guess that they'ld sell like fucking hotcakes. No street dealer would be able to under sell that.
Now if you're the government and you're making $15 off every pack of joints sold what would you do with all that cash? You could save social security, you could save education in America, you could save welfare, hell you'ld even have some left over for the DOD. Plus the expendatures of busting people and their grass would plummet, no more overcrowded prisons full of kids busted for possesion.
It would though have to be regulated in all aspects of it's growth/sale. Say special permits to grow more than 10 plants, but anyone can grow upto 10 plants if they so choose. Vender permits just like liqour licences, selling weed on the corner will still get you locked up, and unfortunetly so then would buying weed on the street get you locked up also.(sorry but thats part of what it would take) But why risk all that when you can just go to the store and buy it, legally?
Anyone else what to help throw down on an idea, help make it a reality?

Strictly speaking isn't that hemp? But I know where you're coming from
Yes, I do think that cannabis should be legalised. Or at least that the research into long-term effects should happen so we don't have the equivalent of the tobacco lawsuits in 30 years time.
Um... I saw your pic in the "how big is your cock?" thread and came to compliment you on it, but then got distracted. So, that pic is hot!
