When peaceful protests do not work, there is the old option...GERONIMO!
It is time for an old-fashioned French Style revolution. Off with the fascists' heads!

I urge activists from across the state and the country to call in. There is only one line (831-427-3772) and you have to pay for the call yourself, however.
We will also be focusing on the Santa Cruz crisis and how it impacts homeless people.

joe six-pack, on the other hand, probably puts beer in the puppies water bowl, and mixes Jack Daniels whisksy with the milk in Juniors baby bottle to 'calm' him when he starts crying in the middle of night, if screaming "SHUT-UP you whiny little brat!" doesn't work-- yeah, I'm talkin to you, you drunk scumbag ...get a life and stop abusing your helpless children.
or drugs for that matter...?
where are you going with this. stop your kid from smoking pot - what do i care, thats got nothing to do with this issue and is completely off the topic of what is really happening here.
marijuana has been PROVEN over and over again to be of medical merit, to ease pain and side effects from AIDS and cancer treatments.These recent raids are not on 'drug dealers' but on medical facilites working within their legal rights. Its like a hospital getting raided because it holds substances that are thought to be dangerous (and most hospitals do use substances and medicines far more dangerous -even lethal - than the harmless herb that for some reason has such a bad reputation) whoever decided that marijuana was a drug was a strange person. IT is a harmless plant with many more redeeming qualities than harmful ones. maybe its time that people like you (Joe, above) started to learn a little more about drugs and learnt the difference between pot and crack...there is a HUGE one, the word "drugs" is so misunderstood.
Isnt it time that we embraced the natural resources we have for these horrible ailments instead of criminalized them. And dont the feds have more important things to do right now???
One day Joe will realize that alcohol and tobacco are gateway drugs, and yet perfectly legal, (can you say corporate campaign contribution) and more readily available to kids than pot ever will be (but I blame the parents and not the kids for that..). One day Joe will have cancer and not be able to afford the high priced drugs of the medical companies because he can't even afford the insurance to begin with. One day Joe may find himself very sick, on the streets, trying to buy pot from a thug who will simply rip him off, beat him, take his money, and laugh at him and his pain.
But I don't really wish this on him or anybody.
Jack, former employee of the 52 6th Street Harm Reduction Center in San Francisco which was raided by the DEA this morning. My tax money being wasted!!
I've seen first hand aids and cancer patients using pot to relieve their pain and regain their appetite, and stay ALIVE a little longer. I have given service to them at this club and watched them take their medication in a SAFE supportive environment. I have also seen what happens to them when the clubs close. Some of them die sooner and and in a lot more pain. In addition to being a medical cannabis dispensary we offered other support services for the sick and homeless. I AM NOT a pot smoker, and I fully support the decriminalization of medical cannabis.
If pot is outlawed, only outlaws will have pot. We will be making criminals of the sick, homeless, and terminally ill. Is THIS America?
I can hardly believe the fascist police state this country is becoming. So much for our "American Principles". Apparently common sense, compassion, and freedom are not on the list.
Oh, and FUCK george bush.....
Marijuana was legalized in Alaska for a time back in the 1970's. Guess what happened? Pot usage as well as usage of other illegal drugs increased in children aged 10 - 16 by almost 50% during that time. The state finally outlawed pot again when they determined the detriment it was having on society. If you're going to advocate legalizing drug usage, at least understand what you're really asking for.
Facts trump opinion every time.
This is Pseudo-Scientific Demagoguery .
"Save the children from the evil weed"! "assassin of youth!"
And anyway, how was this determined? Is the study available online?
Why do I ask? Let's take the hypothetical example of a state that was home to 50,000,000 children aged 10-16 *during* a time of legalization, and 4 children age 10-16 used pot *before* "that time" of legalization, and *during* "that time" of legalization the number increased to 6. That would be a 50% increase, no?
Always be suspicious of stats.
I agree with Nessie's bottom-line, BTW.
Hutchinson can kiss my ass
Our Great Nation has been invaded. All citizens -- whether in offical or unofficial capacities -- are now required to be on the alert for terrorists like those responsible for the 9-11 atrocities. Citizens would be incapacitated if allowed to pursue the decadent and destructive "highs" that are obtained from the mind-numbing marijuana and other dangerous illegal substances. The invasion of our homelands by terrorists intent on mass destruction is a grim reality. Our Nation is at War. Those who advocate legalization, and those who perpetuate the "medical marijuana" fraud in an insidious attempt to legitimize a dangerous substance, are aiding the terrorists with intent to destroy America.
Time and time again, eh? Show us your research materials, anything ya got based in FACT and not supposition..
'If you really support pot smoking only for those who are ill from AIDS or cancer, then fight to have it distributed only by doctor prescription in a very controlled environment that is open to scrutiny by law enforcement. '
'...open to scrutiny from law enforcement.'
I'm not interested in exposing our patients to Ashcroft or Bush's brand of 'scrutiny', I'm not interested in waiting for the gov't to decide when or even IF i may seek relief from my suffering, and i'm LESS than interested in your mock concern for AIDS patients.
By the way...
the Alaska Drug stats you cited we're manufactured Adolph, try again when we aint 'stoned'.
And believe me, I smoke the phat shazzam shit.

>Citizens would be incapacitated if allowed to pursue the decadent and destructive "highs" that are obtained from the mind-numbing marijuana and other dangerous illegal substances.
Your ignorance is showing. Marijuana is not mind numbing. It is mind expanding. It doesn’t suppress attentiveness, it increases it. This is a scientifically demonstrable fact. The mind numbing substance that does incapacitate Americans is perfectly legal. It’s alcohol.
"Never trust someone who can't laugh at themselves"
Oh, and by the way, you are the one who should fuck off and die. The world doesn't need more sour grapes. Life is too sweet.
I love my country and the dream that America holds within it, and our FRAUD of a president GW is taking that away from us all. George W. Bush is a terrorist!!
George Bush is a terrorist!!! Cheney is a terrorist!!!!!
John Ashcroft is a terrorist!!!! Kenneth Lay is a terrorist!!!! Because the run the biggest terrorist agencies in America the CIA, FBI, and DEA. Each group terrorises American citzens and the world causing them to terrorise us THEY ARE THE TERRORIST OF FREEDOM
BIG OIL WILL GO AND THE CANNIBUS REVOLUTION WILL OVERGROW!!!!
I don't think John Ashcroft is doing enough in an attempt to appease you liberal hippies. Hey the 60s are dead join us in 2002 it really is neat.
You fuckin' potheads. Don't give me that bullshit about medicinal purposes. Your lies are as thin as your hair is getting.
You are the joke of America.
