With the way the economy is going, I wouldn't be surprised to see it legal within four years.

Also, I'm in. I live Austin, TX, it shouldn't be hard to find weird, liberal, stoned supporters for this. But I don't want to lead anything, I'll just show up and pass around joints. Also, I'll have no part of violence. If we use any sort of violence it will prove the 80 year lie of pot causing death and such. But I have a great plan for keeping the cops at bay. If they start attacking and arresting us, we fight back, with pot. We all take the biggest hits of our lives, and as they put cuffs on me, I blow it in their face. Then they'll become high and set me free. It's flawless.

Yeah, I'd be in on something like that! Only thing is that I live in a redneck state and they would just as soon tie you to a tree and demand you squeal like a pig than actually listen to peaceful protest. But I think it would be cool if everyone would congregate and spark at once , say we have 10,000 people that spark it at once, are they really all going to get arrested? that's where we could make the biggest impression and show that the war on pot is just a war on everyone.

Traditional means of protest don't seem to get the point across well enough! Lets all pick a day in like 2010 to become the take action day and start a uniform nationwide movement that the government cannot refuse. A thief will not stand up to the public and say that stealing is right and positive thing to do, a murder won't stand up to the public and say that murder is a great positive thing, but Millions of Potheads will stand up to the public and say, Pot is good, pot is right, don't you dare persecute me for it, because potheads are the general public!
So we pick a day to take drastic measures to insure that our voices are heard, and the implications of our words are felt! Might I suggest Mid Spring some time?

I definitely agree that we can't be violent about anything at all. and that's there the man will have us by the short and curly's, because we could get our ass whopped with a club and if we fight back that's what the news cameras will zone in on, they won't zone in on a peaceful person getting their ass handed to them for no reason. It can't be the least bit aggressive at all.

People smoking aren't going to help.... unless its in front of the courthouse, the sheriffs office, the health department, the hall of records, city hall etc. etc., A LOT of people smoking, and holding signs, and chanting, and setting up tents for the long hall.... having signs mixed in that say, "Do It Peacefully, No Violence Here" etc. etc. with group leaders etc. to manage things and make sure nothing gets out of control. Law enforcement would be called in a number of places, and it would be up to management to use diplomacy to keep peace, and keep the protest going. Organization is the key, and us stoners aren't great at that, or keeping up with commitments, soI think its going to take a couple years, and am thinking that 2012 might be more realistic for a one day movement... more time to prepare, and get people involved, :).

I lived there for years, trust me there will be no "kicking back" there. You have one of the highest concentrations of police in the world, DC police, State Police, Park Police, Capital Police, Petagon Police, MP's, oh there are more too and none of them are friendly and they are ALL corrupt. So if you want to go there more power to ya.

It's more along the lines of proving a point. Besides you think by next year there is even going to be a police force in DC? Those motherfuckers are broke as hell. As soon as their paychecks stop clearing, they're gonna stop going to work.

Our government is broke, bankrupt, completely fucked.

All it takes is one employee paycheck to bounce and every other employee will know about it within the hour. Trust me on this, I have worked a job before where employee paychecks started to bounce.

Have you been watching Glenn Beck? Things aren't looking too good for our nations leaders.

Roll out the guillotine, maybe we should pen up all the politicians in those "FEMA" camps they had built.

I am hoping there will be a million people in DC at least. There is no police force there to compete with that, and it will be a registered peaceful protest, so as long as people stay in line, stay peaceful, and don't provoke police, everything will be fine, and that is why group leaders/managers will be present to keep the peace, and remind people that our problem isn't directly with the police, its with the the laws our governments makes them enforce, *

Americans are so sick of government that I bet they just wish the government would do one more stupid thing.

Having cops attack peaceful protesters would be just that.

Man I don't want to go back to DC just thinking about it makes me sick. BUT I guess for a good cause I would be there. You do have to remember though that DC can easily handle a million people, best riot police around, and there is always military backup close by. I would be really surprised though if you could really get a million people to rally around this cause and to meet in one place. The police WILL arrest you for smoking/possession in DC though trust me . . . .
