Hi all. Cannabis Legalisation Ireland WORLD WIDE MARIJUANA MARCH Our main aim is to educate people about the many, many uses of the cannabis plant& the risks involved in it's misuse. To highlight the issue& draw attention to some very important imformation, we plan to stage a protest march on Sunday May 6th in Dublin to coincide with the Global Marijuana Marches taking place in over 190 cities! <table class="indypagebody"><tbody><tr class="indypagebody"><td class="indyleftcolumn"> </td> <td class="indypagebody"> First ever Irish Anti-Prohibition of Cannabis March On the 6th Of May 2007, Ireland will have its first ever End the Proihibition of Cannabis March! This issue has been brushed under the carpets by the politicians for long enough--Cannabis smokers are people-not criminals! Assemble 2pm at the Garden of Remembrance-bring colour, good cheer and friends! For too long now, ordinary hard working people have been treated like criminals because of their choice to smoke cannabis. This march will be the first form of official protest against cannabis prohibition in Irish history. We encourage everyone to come along and voice your opposition to our failed and hypocritical cannabis laws. These outdated laws have turned many decent people into criminals in the eyes of the "justice system" and yet the prohibiton has not succeeded in stopping people enjoying responsibly the joys marijuana can bring. In addition to this-- Limiting the use of the cannabis intrudes on personal freedom. Keeping Cannabis prohibited often traps young people in a flawed system that brings them into interaction with criminals and as a result harder drugs-Cannabis is NOT the gateway, prohibition is! Like alcohol, or cigarettes,or even coffee, marijuana is one of life's little pleasures for some people.,and it is a part of nature,since when was it o.k to make nature illegal?? There are medical benefits such as the those for cancer patients and sufferers of arthritis, glaucoma, cystic fibrosis and many other illnesses. The law is totally inconsistent and disproportional in its effect- alcohol causes 1000s of deaths per year, milions of euro in health costs and innumerable problems in people's lives-but it is both legal and encouraged! And on a very basic level,imiting the use of the cannabis intrudes on people's personal freedom of choice on how to conduct their lives. There is much more information on the march and its mission on ccpr-ireland.bebo.com Participate in the End Prohibition March on the 6th of May! </td></tr></tbody></table>
