What a wonderful idea. I am spreading the word in Canada, and I know we will win, but if that speeds the process up by even on day, it's worth it. Hemp is environmentally friendly, and the smokeable part is harmless in the long term. It is ridiculous for "authorities" to run our lives so badly, when there are real criminals to catch.
Canada's drug laws were started by the very ladies who got women the vote. They were afraid of the "yellow peril," and the danger to white women. Racism put drugs on the criminal code, not addiction.

"WOODSTOCK, New York -- A couple who habitually brand their one dollar bills with a marijuana leaf and the quote: "I grew hemp," were recently contacted by Woodstock police acting on behalf of the Secret Service. Joy Beckerman and James Horn, owners of the Heaven On Earth Hemp Store, report that the police came to them with Xerox copies of stamped dollar bills and a written warning from the secret service specifying that the practice of defacing United States currency was a federal crime. Although Horn admits that the local officers were laid back about the whole issue, he claims that the notice stated that the U.S. Attorney General would be contacted and charges would be pressed if the couple didn't immediately stop the stamping."

It IS a crime. I am not trying to discourage anyone from doing it but it IS in fact a crime. A difficult one to get caught in the action of performing though.

If you dont have problems with smoking weed illegally, why should you have a problem with defacing banknotes?
You rather get caught because of smoking weed, than of defacing notes.
I mean who wants to proof that you did the defacing?

They were bluffed. This is a direct quote from the U.S. Treasury site:It is not a crime to write on currency unless you render it unusable.

SAY IT LOUD AND SAY IT CLEAR; LET THERE BE NO MISUNDERSTANDING.
My folks came here for land and freedom and a chance to make a life that was forbidden in the old country. They found it. That was before pot became a world-wide issue. And THAT'S because of the money being sent to keep pot illegal.

What money do you mean?

POTheadMONkey

if ya got time on your hands then just exchange your bills all the time, say you're shopping, after you pay your food or wtf ever just ask to change money 2 5's to a 10, a 20 to 4 5's, change to bills blah blah etc etc, if everyone does it all the time, there'd be a lot of bills goin around

budburner

Holy crap some things never change, and some things get completely forgotten...

A couple of years ago there was a big ol' thread about this same exact thing. (I believe I wrote my message on 10's of bills)

Unfortunately I never saw and bills come my way with marijuana.com on them.

It's funny, because "Just say know" was one of my suggeations at the time.


Ahhhh nostalgia...

(We even had the little argument over defacing of money lol )
