New gov't bill Snitch - or go to jail!

Discussion in 'Cannabis Legalization & Law Updates' started by geetardude, Jun 6, 2005.

  1. Hey guys,

    I recently found an article about a new bill in the process of being passed. It states that if passed, anyone who as much as sees someone pass a joint, hear them talk about buying some weed, or getting high in the privacy of their own home, will be required to tell the authorities in 24 hours or risk going to jail. I believe this is VERY unconstitutional, and is a violation of our 5th amendment. But whether or not that is true, the bill is in the process of being passed. It has already been passed by one committee. I reccommend that EVERYONE go to the following site and send your comments to the Congress opposing this bill.

  2. I just sent the letter with my additional comments to my people in Congress. This is insane.

    When you guys send the letter, make sure you add those extra 4 digits for your zip code just in case your district is all jacked up like mine.

    If everyone at the City took action on these things, we might make a huge difference and we could say that The City and it's Blades helped change the world. :D
     
  3. Good call, I wasnt going to send a letter but we have to draw a line somewhere. I know im just one person, but if everyone else takes part than it could really affect something.

    :D
     
  4. Holy fucking ridiculous. Honestly, things like this piss me off.. basically our gov't is telling people to be nosy assholes who should report someone for their own personal decisions, no matter how it doesn't involve them.. Next thing you know, they'll have drug testing required to live here. I'm losing faith in my goverment more and more everyday..
     
  5. I sent out a letter. It's true... There's almost 20,000 registered members here. That's quite a voice if you ask me.
     
  6. indy hooked up a thread a week or so ago as well about the issue *zzzzzzzzoink*
    Spy vs Spy
    I sent a letter:smoke:
     

  7. Well, maybe IndytheSuperDork should have come up with a catchier title and we would have paid attention to it! :p *zzzzzzzzzoink* :D
     
  8. Lol...I saw the thread hoping it was an old cartoon from Mad magazine...was quite a downer instead...

    Guess you know I'm not from the states...but I can always pretend :cool: so I guess I'm gonna send a letter, too
     
  9. Thanks Skinner! :) *devil horns*
     
  10. dbw i saw your sig. new ...lol it is very meaningful
     
  11. Someone gotta provide me with a fake adress in the states...they ask for it... ;)
     
  12. PM coming right up.
     
  13. Live audio web chat with Angel Raich tonight at 5 PM EDT /2 PM PDT
    Angel Raich, who suffers from an inoperable brain tumor and several other illnesses, uses medical marijuana to help ease her pain. Last November, she took her case against Attorney General Ashcroft, which would allow patients to cultivate and use medical marijuana upon the recommendation of a doctor, to the Supreme Court. Angel Raich and her husband, Robert Raich will be online to discuss the recent Supreme Court ruling on the case with Alliance Executive Director Ethan Nadelmann and Alliance Legal Affairs Director Dan Abrahamson.
     
  14. hey man, RMJL, Sensi, Cottons, IceCreamKidd... i haven't seen you around here in a long time!

    but then, i only come here really now to check the News sections
     
  15. ANOTHER BAD IDEA COMING FROM A GROUP OF PEOPLE YET TO BE FORCED TO FOLLOW THEIR OWN RULES. WHO ARE WE SUPPOSE TO TELL ON THEM TO. THESE ASSHOLES WANT TO SIT AT HOME WATCH COPS ALL DAY AND LET US DO THEIR WORK. A GOOD NEW IDEA IS "NARCS GET SHOT ON SIGHT AND PUBLICALLY DISPLAYED" SHOOTER GETS $1000 REWARD AND CHILD MOLESTERS GET HUNG PUBLICALLY BY THEIR BALLS ON PAY PER VIEW
