These fine folks represent the House Commitee on the Judiciary:Subcommitee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security. This is where the decriminalization bill Ron Paul and Barney Frank introduced earlier this year. This bill will stall here if we do not contact these people feverently.

 

[bentom187]

should we construct a copy and paste version,of a e-mail to send ?its 3:42 AM here ,ill get to work tommorow to help,peace everyone.

 

[m4k]

It would no doubt be more effective if each submission was not simply a copy paste version of the same letter.

But... here's mine. Feel free to make modifications:

As someone who fervently supported your campaign and political values, I am writing to you to ask that you help move Ron Paul and Barney Frank's cannabis decriminalization bill to a vote.

There are countless of medical patients that I work with who find medical cannabis to be a very effective form of treatment against all sorts of painful and debilitating conditions. It is my desire to see that all Americans have an equal opportunity to use this medicine without fear of reprisal from the federal government.

I urge you to make this happen, I believe in your ability to improve the lives of our fellow Americans.
Thank you,

... good thing we have those hate speach laws so lawyers and politicians can make money and get votes by violating the original law to what ever the soupdejoure of criminals are now.

The ffs were pretty reprehensible too, stole others' land and filled it with slaves. Doesn't get much worse than that. To me they're a bunch of white, sexist bigots.

where are the drone attacks on the KKK or devil worshipers,ummm ted kazinski ,timmy mcveigh,david duke,alex jones,jesse ventura.....? they all encite resistence toa tolitarian state and violation of the constitution(according to you),yet would you line them up for exicution? i dont think so and jessie ventura lives in mexico so theres no problem according to the current outlook on things.

Considering a few of those guys are dead, drone attacks would be a bit redundant.

you assumed we ALL arnt 3/5 ths of a person/slave and treated as controlible commodities to the bank i think their racisim stops at green.

Huh?

this contridicts the constitution and itself and your first comment.
its law or its not and having 2 contridictory laws is dumb or a product of corruption.

Sorry, having a tough time trying to figure out your message.

 

[bentom187]

well i know thereare many patients and clubs ect,im sorry but i thin the MMJ lable we can do without,the only reason i say this is because i think the gears in there head start turnning and they start thinking pharmicuticals and prescription only mj,and the bill is about leaglizing completley ,i think this bill is so we can grow it or buy it at our own expence,that way there would be no room to make people criminals and put them in prisons still.
1. the letter should address all mj in general and its harmless nature
2. i think perhaps exposing the govt. patent in the letter would help show the hypocracy
3. and the innocent people the police murder with no knock raids ect....
4. the public monetary costs


i like the first part

As someone who fervently supported your campaign and political values, I am writing to you to ask that you help move Ron Paul and Barney Frank's cannabis decriminalization bill to a vote.

The government has had its own patent US:6630507 for a while now reffering to its wide ranging health benifits!

please start to add on

should we construct a copy and paste version,of a e-mail to send ?its 3:42 AM here ,ill get to work tommorow to help,peace everyone.

I definetly think that might be the way to go. It would keep our letter on topic and cover the important parts.

we definitely shouldnt be sending a bunch of politicians letters like "Hey dewd I wanna keep growing the dopest pot brah. Legalize ittttt"

we should keep in mind this is DECRIMINALIZATION not LEGALIZATION too.


now if only us potheads could stay focused we might actually do something one day.

 

[igrowone]

i do see a number of posts with concerns on some of Ron Paul's positions

keep in mind he is not going to be elected king but president(a long shot)

in the end, he would have to compromise to some extent

but every vote for him is a vote for change, and significant change

i think we've done well with this bill getting as much momentum as it did, and the more momentum the better

 

[MadBuddhaAbuser]

COMPLETE dickhead. holds up the NJ med law for years till he figured out how to get his buddies rich off of it(see the med law link in my sig). he's also been a constant media seeking whore from the beggining too.


He has always been about running for president, I've seen him on the news over a year ago quipping about how he could win the presidency. I dont think he will run this cycle, but ya never know. The lackluster republican field so far has many trying to hype him up.

oh remember the chris christie talk last week?

"Chris Christie for President: N.J. Governor 'Considering it Seriously'
By Maggie Astor | October 1, 2011 5:20 PM EDT

After months of denying any possibility that he would run for president in 2012, advisers to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie "are actually considering it seriously," an anonymous aide told The New York Times.


Christie hasn't made a final decision, but his advisers have begun to strategize in earnest so that they can launch his campaign immediately if needed. One told The New York Times that a campaign could be underway within 24 hours if Christie does decide to run.

Christie's aides said he had initially been looking at a 2016 campaign, but with President Obama's approval ratings so low and voters dissatisfied with the current Republican field, he is reconsidering whether 2012 could be his moment after all.

Given the rush by many states to schedule their primaries and caucuses as early as possible, the start of the voting season could be less than 100 days away. That leaves Christie precious little time to build a campaign infrastructure that can compete seriously in crucial states like Iowa and New Hampshire.

Numerous national figures -- including News Corporation CEO Rupert Murdoch, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and conservative writer William Kristol -- have been urging Christie to run, and many voters have stepped forward to tell reporters that they think he is the one who can unite the Republican Party. But a successful campaign is about much more than a good reputation going in, and the bounce that comes from being the new person on the scene can't sustain a candidate for long (just ask Rick Perry).

Top-tier candidates have to raise copious amounts of money -- a challenge when entering the race so late -- and come up with a strategy for spending it. They have to recruit volunteers and staffers, work the media and set a travel schedule that takes them to both early voting states and key swing states. Meanwhile, the filing deadlines to get a candidate's name on primary ballots are fast approaching.

History is full of cautionary tales of "savior" candidates who never lived up to the hype. In 1992, New York Gov. Mario Cuomo considered the slew of calls for him to run for the Democratic nomination and got so far as preparing to file his papers in New Hampshire -- but he never did. More recently, in 2007, former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani entered the 2008 Republican race to much fanfare and soared to the top of the polls, only to crash in the Florida primary.

Both Cuomo and Giuliani were hugely popular as New York officials, but they couldn't translate that advantage to the national stage -- not entirely, but certainly partially, due to their late entries. Giuliani also faced an additional obstacle that Christie is likely to face as well: He had bipartisan popularity in a traditionally Democratic home state, but many Republican voters at the national level didn't think he was conservative enough.

It may already be too late for Christie, hype notwithstanding. But if he is going to have any chance, he needs to throw his hat in the ring now."

We better get this decrim bill through now, cuz when he is president it will all be shut down.

he managed to continue to delay implementation on NJ SIGNED med law for YEARS. basically if he wins we are FUCKED.

good point madbuddha,it just gets out of the jurisdiction of the feds ,but thats a huge step too.

stickey is right. AmeriSkunk, read my sig and ponder for a while if you will.

As long as someone doesn't steal or hurt someone else...the government needs to stay the fuck out of people lives.

A person addicted needs help...not a prison sentence and then a fucked life.

Exactly. And it's addiction that's the root problem, not the drugs. Criminalization of drugs simply makes them available in the worst possible form, like crack, which would not exist if cocaine was legal) or any number of other super-potent, concentrated, dangerous street drugs. During alcohol prohibition, all people drank was liquor and homemade moonshine. Why? Easier to transport and more bang for the buck... the craft beer industry was not exactly booming. The same thing is true with all illegal drugs in the black market..

Ron Paul knows this and has pointed it out on a number of occasions (I stole that talking point from him, ha). Addiction is a medical problem. He is the only guy in DC that understands this and has tirelessly worked to continually introduce legalization legislation, and as a doctor understands MM as a medicine. He also happens to be running for President, and he actually has a chance. It is an exciting time if we play our cards right.

That said, I'm going to shamelessly plug his Black This Out Moneybomb on October 19th. I normally wouldn't post this here but I feel very strongly about the MM community as a huge factor that the DC Establishment isn't counting on, especially for a Republican (gasp!) candidate. We only have one shot at this. I'm not rich by any means but I always throw a few bucks in to his fundraisers, even if it's just $10. This one is getting a lot of promotion and is going to be huge!! Google it and tell your friends!

Ron Paul Wins Straw Poll At Values Voter Summit

Ron Paul wins Values Voter straw poll

Washington (CNN) - GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul secured yet another straw poll victory Saturday.

The Texas congressman won 37% of the poll at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, sponsored by the Family Research Council, a social conservative group.

However, not all of those who voted for Paul in the straw poll were necessarily participants in the summit. Family Research Council president Tony Perkins said 600 attendees registered just for Saturday. Paul ended up winning with 732 votes.

Paul has won a handful of straw polls this year, including contests held in California and South Carolina, in addition to a straw poll at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February.

Coming in second on Saturday, rising GOP candidate and Georgia businessman Herman Cain took 23% of the vote. Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum came in third with 16%.

Two front-runners, Texas Gov. Rick Perry and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, placed fourth and sixth, respectively. Perry garnered 8% of the vote, while Romney had 4%.

Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, who touts herself as a strong social conservative and won the much-watched Ames Straw Poll in Iowa, came in fifth, while former House Speaker Newt Gingrich took seventh place.
