This is a
pro-legalization website. Neither adults nor children should
be considered criminals for possession of any natural plant given to
us by God. Forbidding the use, possession, or
cultivation of any natural plant is evil and violates the laws of
God and humanity. No Government should have the right to prohibit the use of a
natural plant or to imprison any human being for
cultivation or possession of
a plant. The imprisonment and
incarceration of millions of people for possession and
cultivation of marijuana is an evil action against the
citizens of the world and it must be stopped. Our children
do not deserve to be considered criminals or felons over a plant. The legalization of cannabis
hemp would be a huge stimulus to the worlds economy
with over 200,000 uses for this plant. It can provide a
solution to our energy crisis. We could be fueling our cars
with non polluting renewable ethanol made from cannabis. How
does legalization happen? It starts with you. Time to
legalize marijuana globally, country by country, state by
state, & providence by providence. Stop these evil laws against
Humanity, God, our children, and nature. Stop making our
children criminals with these laws. Build Schools not
Prisons. It is time to legalize cannabis now.
Lets Legalize Marijuana Globally. We can return marijuana globally,
Country by Country and State by State. In the United States we
can legalize marijuana one State at a time. Time to put it to the vote in every State.
Time to shut down the prisons, end the billions spent on the
marijuana war.
