Herer Highjacked???

from Roland A. Duby and various other sources.............
ALERT! All Warriors: Jack Herer has been effectively kidnapped through forgery! A woman named Joy Graves showed up at the Avamere nursing home in River Park Oregon, where Jack was being cared for by his wife, and she had a power of attorney granting her power of attorney over Jack which she claims was signed just before he went onstage the day of his massive heart attack.
 

Hemp and the Economy

 

In the 1920's and early 30's, Hemp was being promoted as the plant that could save the world. It's hundreds of uses and amazing ability to grow with little effort made this plant the perfect choice for fuel, clothing, paper, and even food and medicine. In fact, one acre of hemp is worth 4.1 acres of trees for the amount of paper that can be produced. One of the first cars ever made even ran on hemp fuel. Hemp can be turned into fuel just like corn, but it doesn't take anywhere near the same amount of resources as corn to grow. If we truly wanted to “Go Green” we should turn to hemp.

 

Obama talks about reducing the countries dependency on foreign oil, and yet here is this miracle plant waiting to be sewn. If this country truly wanted to go green, then we should legalize hemp and begin massive efforts into the cultivation of this industry. Here's a stimulus package for you, use 1 billion dollars to get this country producing in the hemp industry, and I will guarantee that we are out of this second depression.

 

Make no mistake this country is heading toward tough times still. We need a catalyst, hemp can be that catalyst. This country is already in the processes of legalizing it, I don't understand why they just don't do it in one fell swoop instead of dragging out a process that will only benefit the country in the long run.

 

Prohibition is costly, we need to save money, Hemp is cheap and can reduce our dependency on foreign everything many, many, many times over. Unfortunately, logic and reason are often frowned upon in government, and so we must continue the struggle, and educate as many people as we can about the truth about Hemp and Marijuana. Growing Weed can save the world, and yet the US treats this miracle plant like herpes.

The 29-year-old, identified as Theresa Anthony, had expected to spend just two and a half weeks behind bars in the Harris County lockup. On Saturday, Cynthia Prude, Theresa’s mother, received a phone call from the jail’s Chaplain informing her that her daughter was dead. “I almost got in a wreck,” Prude told the local Fox affiliate. “I thought somebody was playing on the phone. I would like to know what happened to my daughter.” Prude has not been allowed to see the body, nor has the Harris County Sheriff’s Department even spoken with her, according to area media. “Today I still don’t know if that’s my daughter,” Prude told Houston news station KHOU. “I’m only going by a Social Security number that we got from Ben Taub Hospital.” Houston’s Fox affiliate noted that an autopsy has not yet been conducted on Theresa’s body. The Harris County Sheriff Department’s public information officer was not available to answer RAW STORY’s questions. Not the first time It is hardly the first time serious questions surrounded the death of a Harris County inmate. On 4 June 2009, the Justice Department concluded a 15 months-long investigation into the Harris County facility and determined in the subsequent 27-page report that over 142 prisoners had died there since 2001. Most expired due to lack of medical care, the report claims. The Associated Press noted that after the Justice Department declined to make its findings public, The Houston Chronicle was able to obtain a copy, which it released on the Internet. The findings, addressed to Harris County Judge Ed Emmett, lauded the prison’s efforts to maintain security, booking and intake programs and take basic fire safety precautions. The Justice Department said that by these measures, the facility “complies with constitutional requirements in a number of significant respects.” The Justice Department added that in spite of these marginal safety and procedural issues, “certain conditions at the jail violate the constitutional rights of detainees. Indeed, the number of inmate deaths related to inadequate medical care [...] is alarming.” This video is from My Fox Houston, broadcast late Monday, June 22, 2009.

Pot Fines Drop Below IQ of the Stoned lol

I could have put the following in the Marijuana News, but it is so righteous for a blog I gotta do the deed here. so here, already lol: Denver weighs $1 fine for marijuana possession Share on Facebook By Stephen C. Webster Published: August 27, 2009 Updated 1 month ago Denver may soon become the most laid-back city in America. As far as its marijuana laws are concerned, that is. A city panel recommended on Wednesday that Denver lower its penalty for marijuana possession by adults to just $1. The fine currently sits at $50. The state also mandates an additional $100 surcharge and an additional $10 fee. “The panel was created by Mayor John Hickenlooper in December 2007 after voters passed an ordinance that made it so adult marijuana possession is the city’s ‘lowest law enforcement priority,’” noted Colorado’s NBC 9News. The panel voted 6-2 to recommend the fee change, according to The Denver Post. The $1 fine still requires approval by a Denver judge. Even if the judge agrees, the total penalty for marijuana possession will still stand at $111. can ya feel the burn haters? can ya feel the world turn beneath your feet like a hot girl in heat? can ya dig the truth? aint she neat? ha ha ha ha the bush abides

The following article is very on this. We need to run the drug dealers of what is outright wrong to give people off. This new law talked about below is an example of how we need to keep aware of infiltraitors who can sneak in and mess us reefer smoker/tokers up. All the while appearing like nice people, of course.

(PORTLAND, Ore.) - Author and activist Jack Herer suffered a heart attack Saturday after stepping down from the stage at Hempfest, an event celebrating cannabis in Oregon. Herer is the author of "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" and it is fair to say he is known and loved by millions who are part of, or associated with, the cannabis culture. He is quite possibly the single most important and well known figure in the entire movement. Jack's heart attack followed his delivery of an impassioned speech to the thousands attending Hempstalk. The event is described by some friends of Jack's as a "mild heart attack", but Salem-News.com's Dr. Phillip Leveque, says no heart attacks are mild. We want to be able to give accurate information and we have received many emails from people who care and want to know how Jack, his wife Jeannie, and his son Mark are doing, along with their long list of supporters. Alabama Compassionate Care reported on Facebook that the latest UNCONFIRMED word is that Jack may have suffered damage to 70% of his brain. Organizers of Hempstalk had asked the city of Portland to station an ambulance near the event but city officials refused, according to Oregon NORML Executive Director Madeline Martinez. Dr. Leveque says Jack did go a long time without oxygen. It actually took between twenty and twenty five minutes for ambulance crews to reach Jack after he collapsed. Salem-News.com called the Legacy Emanuel Hospital in Portland and were told as of 2:10 p.m. west coast time, by a spokesperson, that Jack Herer is still in critical condition. He is in the hospital's Cardiac ICU. JACK HERER FUND: There is an immediate need for help with finances for Jack Herer. They ask for you to please spread the word. Donations may be deposited at any US BANK under the JACK HERER DONATION FUND. us skank and i do not get along. they hurt millions of peeps for free money. totally oink outfit
