Oh, YAY! Thank you for saying that. Just throwing an idea out there….. maybe we should all think “why do I smoke pot?” and post it on here. The more good reasons the better chance we have. (All gansters and such forth need not reply)I will start maybe the rest of you wont be shy. My husband will agree that I am a horrible nasty crazy bitch when I have not smoked. I could take some pill for this I am sure but I am pretty much a hippie and pot is natural. Also if you smoke and get in your zen you can really come to peace with alot of things and maybe figure things out in your head that you couldn’t before, I know I can. (p.s. All you guys out there if you can’t pick it don’t do it. Thats just my advice tho)

In the United States there are approximately 301,139,947 citizens, of which 215,088,545 use the the Internet. I believe there are 100 million, nearly 50% of the Americans online, feel that Marijuana is no more dangerous than alcohol and should be controlled in the same manner.
I’ve always felt at a loss when it came to this topic and the issue of standing up because, as the founder of the point stated, no one wants to stand around protesting for an uncertain outcome and honestly, it would be a little difficult to have 100 million people gather to protest.
We need to finally take a stand!

I was looking through the posts and all i saw were people talking about smoking in front of cops and being a juggalo, whatever the fuck that is. I havent seen one post that has actually made sense, the reason marijuana is illegal is because most of the people who smoke it are ignorant, they dont care about what happens when theyre high or what they do, they just wanna get high because they think theyre cool. I mean, I personally smoke weed because it makes me feel better about myself and not care what other people think about me, theres also people who smoke because theyre either in pain or they have depression problems. All im saying is if you smoke weed for no reason at all then dont post any stupid shit like that because it does not help one bit. If you want it to get legalized the go ahead and join this petition but if you want to post shit about how your a juggalo or a juggelette or a gangster or whatever it is you are then post it somewhere else because we dont need it here.

Robert Benjamin replied 1 day agoI don’t understand why were even arguing about this, It’s illegal to drink and drive and we need to do the same for Marijuana, it’s the first step to getting it legalized, there have to be rules and as for drinking there will be rules applied to marijuana, and as for the idiot above who stated that marijuana doesn’t effect his walking or driving, Man brother you need to find yourself a new dealer, your getting ripped off if your not effected by the pot you smoke, it is proven medically that it effects the brain, do you not read what you are fighting to legalize or does it just sound cool to you?!….
Wake up to reality brother and think about the bigger picture and get a life, unplug from the PC or the gaming station, READ and THINK before you respond to something you have no idea what your talking about!…

“the reason pot isn’t legal yet is because a company couldn’t sell pot and make money because it’s not that hard to grow it. therefor the country wouldn’t make very much money off it”.
I’m really sick and tired of this lame paranoid excuse.
You know why?If pot were legal today I STILL WOULDN’T GROW IT because it’s a pain in the ass!!
I just want to be able to walk down to my local coffeeshop or drugstore, look at a menu and buy a bag of weed after work. JUST LIKE AMSTERDAM. Simple. Just like the alcoholics do now – legally. And we all know alcohol is poison that WILL kill you eventually. Pot never has and never will kill anybody.
And you know what? If pot were legal, more people would smoke it, but we would all smoke less of it. Why? Because you wouldn’t have to stock up in order to make less frequent purchases like you do now. When you have a lot of weed around, you smoke a lot more of it. In Amsterdam you can only purchase 5 grams at a time. I also smoked less because the quality was fantastic and the weight or “count” was always spot on. Plus, you have a menu of various types of pot AND hash. I haven’t seen hash in this country in 20 years!!But beyond all that, AND NACK TO MY ORIGINAL POINT: it’s so much more convenient to buy pot in a store than it is to grow it. Most people I know buy all their veggies AT THE SUPERMARKET. They could easily grow their own, but they don’t. Why????
BECAUSE ITS A PAIN IN THE ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So please, please get off this argument that some company won’t be able to sell pot because we can grow it ourselves. That’s all bullshit.
The reason it’s illegal is because law enforcement makes LOTS OF MONEY for their coffiers by arresting and fining pot smokers while they take the confiscated evidence and resell it on the streets or smoke it themselves. Free weed is always nice.
The only way to get weed legal is to expose the real criminals and see to it that they lose their jobs. Police, judges, legislators – get rid of them all.
Get out and vote for legislators who support legalization. Go meet them and make sure that the only question you ask of them is “Do you support legalization of marijuana, yes or no?”
If they say no, then tell them that they just lost your vote and you don’t need to hear their position on any other matter. And then walk away. And back it up at the polls. None of the candidates support legalization? Then tell them all that you will not be voting at all this year. That will really get their attention.

I think we should all stop fighting and actually try to get people to come to this site and join this capaign. I mean im 15 and i bet most of the people on here are over 20 but i dont care, ive already put a campaign link for this on my myspace….wich didnt work very well and on another site i have. Im not saying its right to drive high because thats fuckin retarded and nobody should put other people in danger because they just wanna get high and have fun but we dont need to spend time arguing about this when we could spend that time getting people to join. I think this daniel has a very good point and we need to make our government realize this so we can live in peace and smoke our weed.

like tyler, im underage. im 16 and i really hope this works. Marijuana should have never been illegal in the first place, that is the stupidest move the DEA ever did. the federal government is bullshit. the state government is still changable, like in california. they have legal weed but STILL the DEA break into their shops, take EVERY bit of stuff they can find whether it b a bunch of FREE weed called “evidence” and a bunch of bongs and pipes. shit if i had the chance, i would grow myself enough weed to last a year. its an expensive and patient project 2 do and it takes a brain, but overall it doesnt look all that hard. but aside from all the bullshit arguments, lets all spread the word to our Stoner brothers and sisters to join this campaign and let our voices be heard!!! this has gone on long enough and its time 2 be able 2 light a joint or a bowl and not get in trouble for it! i wish i could go outside and smoke a joint but i cant, not without getting stopped by sum punk ass pig thats just gonna steal my weed. STONER PRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it is quite obvious that the underage kids should not be smoking. This is not a fight it is a chat about how we should go about making this legal. Here is a statement for the underagers on this this site. Thank you for your support it is much needed and appreicated but lets face it you can’t vote so what makes you think you opinion is gonna count here? So please do our leg work and our recruiters…. Do your research, spreed the word, and bring people to the site. For other stuff the old heads need to step in and take charge. I know all you old heads are sitting back shacking your heads at these new age “stoners”. Well why don’t you old heads smoke with the young punks and show them how it really is. Please pot is a drug that helps when its used right….. smoke up, sit back, and figure it out. P.S. profanity does not make what your saying more important and neither does calling names.

Alot of ppl might think this is stupid but here it goes. I think there is a few ways to open there eyes. But it would take ever stoner out there and Im talking about them chicken shits that try to hide it. #1 All pull togeather and stop working. Because like I said that would be more then half of the USA if like I said the chicken shits grew some balls and stand up to our sorry ass government. Thats what hits them the worst $$$$$$. If they cant control it for them selfs they dont want no1 to do it. I mean come on and look @ them old pot commercials they made back in the day. The one where that boy took a pan and beat his mom with it, and said it was pot lol. Bullshit. He would have been on the couch chilling watching howdy fucking dudy. Yea its like a 50s commercial. So if the protest got on that large of a scale and the economy is geting almost crashing, yea then they would take notice. Moonshiners did it back in the day, making a shit load of money yup that mighty $. Gov thought were not going to bet them this way so lets make a tax for it. Well I think there finaly geting a clue. Were not going to stop no mater wut they do. Lock me up AGAIN. Iv smoked in jail and I can smoke in prison. So they still didnt beat me. When I get out Il still be smokeing. Have been since I was 12 and Im 28 now }:^)~ #2 I think Obama might help out. He talks all this shit about change. Then let the mother fucker prove it. Get a shit load of ppl on here sign it and send it to him. Maybe even try to meet with him. Yea might sound dumb, like how can I meet the president huh. Well you never know unless u acually get off your ass and do it and keep on untill he tells u no. Even then dont stop. I could go on and on but Il let it go for now and see wut others think.

I dont disagree but that isnt the way to go about it really. If you want something to get legalized then prove to the government that you wont be stupid about it. When you say youve been to prison and all that shit all the government is going to say is “He is just a criminal and weed will cloud his judgement and who knows what will come next, Strong armed robbery?”
And the “chicken shits” youre talking about are the smart stoners who know that if nobody knows they smokethen nobody will suspect anything and they could get off easier than someone who tells the whole world.
Get smart man.

The legalization or equality of marijuana can prove to be lucrative to our starving economy; it can help stimulate it. “The report shows that marijuana legalization - replacing prohibition with a system of taxation and regulation - would save $7.7 billion per year in state and federal expenditures on prohibition enforcement and produce tax revenues of at least $2.4 billion annually if marijuana were taxed like most consumer goods.”(economics.about.com).
