Ending the “War Against (Some) Drugs” means we all have to become activists on some level and learn how the political system works.
There’s No Such Thing As Marijuana
You know how everyone seems to say either, “Marijuana is bad” or “Marijuana is good”? You know how some people say, “People can get paranoid from smoking pot” or “Medical marijuana helps people with paranoia, anxiety, and depression”? You know how one person can say, “I got really screwed up after smoking weed and passed […]
Willie Nelson Is (Really!) Having a Pot Party, And We’re All Invited!
We all heard about Willie Nelson getting busted for possession of a few ounces of weed a little while ago. Well, there were jokes about him starting a Teapot Party, but it turns out he was really serious! And now NORML is involved and there will be meetups all over the country (hopefully people won’t […]
How the FDA Protects Sellers of Rat Poop and Dangerous Drugs

Government anti-drug propaganda has made fools out of a large number of Americans, prisoners […]
Screwed By The Broadus Effect?
Well, Prop 19 seems to have gone down to defeat bigtime. But what about the polls that showed the odds almost even? Perhaps the Broadus Effect was responsible…that odd factor that makes people answer telephone polls differently than the way they vote. It seems that people talk to pollsters in terms of what they think […]
Official-Looking Anti-Marijuana Document Proves…Nothing
In response to this nonsense, as seen on /r/trees: Like most government propaganda, a lot of what Wikipedia calls “weasel words” and other techniques of stretching the truth and intimating things without actually lying 100% of the time, which would be too obvious. Actually, learning how these things are done — especially easy to do […]
