Cannaliberty - and Why It Matters
Cannaliberty and Individual Freedom
America, what the hell happened to you? You were once a nation that each individual didn't need to have "help" from the government, we didn't put up with any of our rights being violated or taken away, and we fought a war against Great Britain the King George because he wanted to take our guns and tax us (pennies at that time). Now we are government tit suckers and are willing to allow our rights be stolen without even as much as a whimper because it is going to make us feel safe...damn cowards.
So, how does Cannabis fit into all of this? Well, Cannabis is actually a sign that there may be some people starting to actually "get it" and are now demanding their rights back and they are willing to pay the price to keep those rights.
Liberty and Cannabis
Some people I talk with who are against the legalization of Cannabis nation wide, tend to be people who don't even see how the "Refer Madness" propaganda controls their own personal perception of reality.
I live in a relatively average sized city of over 100K population. Our City has been a leader in Medicinal Cannabis dispensaries and everythign was going great, until legalization of recreational Cannabis was now on the table, and in 2016 California became another state to fully legalize Cannabis; but not all it great in Canna-land.
Liberty is not something the is given to us by our elected representatives, liberty is part of the human DNA and stated as such in the Declaration of Independence. The Bill of Rights waswritten for We the People, it was written and ratified on December 15, 1791 which was four years AFTER the adoption of the Constitution for the United States, and as stated in the Preamble, the Bill of Rights was to put very strict limits on our Representative government...think about that for a minute.
The Bill of Rights says no where that smoking Cannabis, or taking some other drug is not a right, yet here we are and it is time to demand our rights back and if need be, we need to get our Founding father's mindset back and grow some damn spines, because some have the anatomy of men, but have women's parts between their legs; if your offended by the...Good.
In Closing
Cannaliberty is just a play on words, but liberty is noting to joke about or play with. Cannabis legalization is just one more step to gaining back our liberties...but it won't come without a fight, and if your liberty really matters, and the Bill of Rights really matters to you, then get off your ass and start demanding the ALL our rights be restored, otherwise just keep on trucking baby; and may history forget we were every cohorts.
