06' Marijuana Mid-Term Results

Well, all the results are in and it’s time to get them out to the public. The conclusions from these mid-term elections are mixed. Seeing how close some of the major ballots came to being passed, it looks like we’re on the right track towards legalization.

Honorable mentions go to Eureka Springs, Arkansas and Massachusetts for passing ordinances and low level resolutions aiding in the deprioritization of marijuana arrests.

2006 Stoner Voters Guide

August 31st, 2006 by Alex

Vote 2006
Marc Emery has just authored an extremely important article in the campaign for Smokers Rights. Cannabis Culture’s USA 2006 Stoner Voters Guide is an important look, state-by-state, into what you can do to progress the cause of legalization.

Marc has done just about everything he can to facilitate action. He’s written about the House of Representatives, how & when to vote, using MySpace to further the cause, useful tips on how to initiate conversation, information on RockTheVote.com and then he starts going state-by-state on who he supports and who you should contact. Wow. Guess Marc blows the old lazy stoner myth right out of the water.

Since tFS is based in California, we are going to transcribe Marc’s section on who he supports for Governor:

Legal Hemp Around the Corner

August 17th, 2006 by Alex

Legal Hemp = Good Hemp

A bill approved by the California state Senate in a 26-13 vote will make it legal for farmers to grow industrial hemp. Despite American farmers growing these crops for decades, industrial hemp was mistakenly grouped with marijuana in 1937 when both were made illegal in the United States. Shit, even George Washington and Thomas Jefferson grew hemp - that’s OG right there.

Hemp bares little resemblance to marijuana. You’d die from smoke inhalation before getting high off this stuff. What you can do is turn it into a wide variety of cool products - clothing, cosmetics, paper, rope, jewelry (think hemp bracelets) and more. The bill is aiming to avoid federal restrictions by requiring that farmers sell the hemp only to California processors. This will prevent interstate commerce and the big nose of the feds getting involved.

The only dissent comes from the Office of National Drug Control Policy, saying that marijuana plants could be easily hidden inside industrial hemp crops. These naysaying douchebags were most likely interviewed in this fine TV show.

Within a few years, there will hopefully be many varied products of high quality, home-grown, industrial hemp.


Da Bomb Blunts: ‘California Chronic’ Peach

July 31st, 2006 by Alex

Da Bomb Blunts: Peach

Peach is a fine fruit that goes well with any summer day. Turning this flavor into a wrap was a logical step and Da Bomb Blunts has done it successfully. With sweet and aromatic leaves, this blunt can compete with the entire DBB catalogue. The peach scent is spot on and its flavor has been lightly infused with the fruit’s essence. These aspects combine to create one well-rounded experience. All in all, it’s hard to go wrong with this wrap.
