Red Eye South Africa Cannabis Road Trip. - African - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

afropips · 06-16-2006, 07:16 PM

Hiya,
I just picked up issue 22 of Red Eye Magazine
& they have some cool info & photos.
Do any of you Saffers get the Red Eye or other Weed Mag's?
Is there any stores or fleemarket entrepreneurs who vend the Canna magazines?

They have a good photo of one of the Cool Runnings bars.
I have managed to frequent the Hatfield House a few times but none of the others.

Cool Runnings.....

never seen or heard of either mags.

Cool Runnings hasn't been that cool for years now. it's pretty much a family place
and they make you put out your joint now (or kick you out).
Tings 'n Times was always better imho, better music/vibe and the rasta upstairs who always had weed hehe.

Jim, did you ever go to Shaft?

afropips · 06-17-2006, 05:25 PM

Hi,
Never heard of Shaft before, either!

There used to be some Rastas on the Greenmarket square in 97
who had a stand that sold pipes, bongs & High Times Magazine.

You guys need the Mag's down there like in CNA , Lol!
Its about time there was Huge Legalise movements
there. It certainly would help the unemployment rate
if we could legally grow the economy without
U.S anti weed Propaganda.

Cheers........

Hopefully if/when I make it to africa I can do my part to help make a few jobs. Sometimes I wish I wasn't american because I worry about someone viewing an american trying to bring change to a culture with contempt. I don't know why don't they see the wonderful things we're doing in iraq? J/k

i don't think africa and the developing world in general should follow the examples set by the so called "first world". keep in mind that all africans were "unemployed" before the whites came, and they were living just fine without money.

zamalito · 06-21-2006, 09:39 PM

Yeah you're right about that. To some ectent I was kidding but at the same time if I'm making a little more than I need I feel it is important to share and give back to my neighbors if they are in need so as not to harbor any resentments.

yeah i hear ya, distributing surplus is very important and a noble thing indeed, as long as people don't depend on it for their survival, you know, the phrase "help, to control" comes to mind.
here's the way i see it: give a man a fish, he eats for a day. teach him to fish, he's slightly better off. teach him aquaculture, and he becomes his own god.

Hiya SatGhost,
Does the Sat stand for Sativa or are you feeling flat? lol
Here is a favorite poem I copied from a poetry book by
Benjamin Zephaniah from a friend in Zimbabwe in 1988,
while visiting for the Peter Gabriel, Sting & Chapman
Human rights concert.

I thought it might appeal to you!

Anti.
See suffering all around me
can't think what will happen next
these ideas like plagues of roaches
make me angry make me vex.

Big nice houses nice & easy
is this really human style?
nice & easy that can't please me
cools me not nor makes me smile.

Running up town, running down town
everywhere it seems the same
its the same old story of men
who use blood to entertain.

Is it right that the delight
is in the power struggle game?
I won't accept that, I refuse that,
I must liberate my name.

Try to brainwash me or take me
to a place to do their deeds
no hitman can't stop me now
for I must gain my peoples needs,
have to rebel from corruption
have to find another path
find a point to roll my joint
& distribute out my wrath,
running up town, running down town
won't forgive their lawless crimes
won't forget that they killed Garvey
after making him serve time

And so I come to tell you
& I think you should know
I just can't sit & watch this happen
can't sit down & let this go,
my middle name is anti-society
nature is the feeder
anti-society
damn that hypocrisy.
anti-society.

AfroVision = There has to be constructive ground roots sustainable eco projects
commenced in Africa. If only a powerfull High Fibre content endemic cannabis variety could be freely harvested by the masses for Legal International Markets then the money could go to the people that deserve it.

We all have to have some Pipe Dreams, Lol

Cool Runnings..........

lol Jim, no it's "sat" because like you, the sativas drive me mal!
nice poem, but i'd like to hear the analysis from you or anyone else who's into poetry, he alludes to many things and to me it just sounds like a good old general rant, i'm afraid i don't quite catch his meaning.

i don't think it's wise for people find more ways to make more money, unless it's a means to an end (that end being land purchase for a small familly unit). these "people who deserve it", if they already have arable land to grow hemp, why should they be trying to earn capital? "sustainable agriculture" is an oxymoron, agriculture can't be sustainable if the produce is exported!

Hi,
At least we have the sats in common!

00 eleventh & twelfth digit ID number.
