Comments on: Assembly says High Time for Change in “Marihuana” Law http://blogs.artvoice.com/avdaily/2008/06/20/assembly-says-high-time-for-change-in-marihuana-law/ News & Commentary from the Artvoice Editorial staff Thu, 20 Nov 2008 09:45:50 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: ACure http://blogs.artvoice.com/avdaily/2008/06/20/assembly-says-high-time-for-change-in-marihuana-law/#comment-1516 ACure Mon, 23 Jun 2008 18:18:52 +0000 http://blogs.artvoice.com/avdaily/?p=580#comment-1516 Aside from the stupid comments made by the last few idiots, this is actually a serious issue for people with terminal illnesses and chronic pain. If MJ provides those individuals with relief from their suffering, then let them have as much as they want. If the state legislature chickens out, then I would advocate for civil disobedience for people whose illnesses could benefit from MJ. What would Albany do if thousands of terminal cancer patients sat on the steps of the state capital and lit up a joint? Would they send out their storm troopers or change the laws. But it may not come to that, since the governor has limited eyesight, apparently due to glaucoma, and there is a body of research on the benefits of MJ for that ailment as well.

Played the trumpet
I’ll hit dat bong and break ya off something soon
I got to get my props
Cops
Come and try to snatch my crops
These pigs wanna blow my house down
Head underground
To the next town
They get mad
When they come to raid my pad
And I’m out in the nine deuce Cad’
Yes I’m the pirate pilot
Of this ship if I get
Wit’ the ultraviolet dream
Hide from the red light beam
Now do you believe in the unseen
Look, but don’t make your eyes strain
A nigga like me is goin’ insane
