The first part of the audio will probably make you throw up all over yourself. It is filled with lies and misconceptions, tons of logical fallacies.

The last 40 min or so were very positive for our side. Numerous conerned Alaskans called in and they had their facts ready. Good quotations to go on the record, that's for sure, along with debunking the ONDCP.
The Director of the Public Defenders Agency started off for our side. She had an amazing testimony, and the Senator waits until she is away from the mic to take a cheap shot. Jeez, I wanted to hit that guy really hard.It's this type of trash that has us in the spot we are in. Prohibitionist lies and deciet is what fuels my passion for reform.

I got a bad feeling about some of those Senators though. That one especially was very outspoken like he was proud to support increasing penalties so drastically.

If you are from Alaska, I strongly recommend you make as many people aware of this issue as possible and email/phone the Senate committee along with your elected officials that represent you.


As for the prohibitionists they are literally experts at data manupulation, making fallacy sound like truth, and spreading falsehoods across this great nation of ours. It takes all of us to rise above the falsehoods and have the light of truth, no, the illuminating GLORY of the truth about cannabis shine right through every dark hole in this country. Every ear that the prohibitionist poison will be cleansed by our words, and we will not stop until it is legal for adults in every state in the union!
