LIVE DJ's : EKEM vs. ENJOI

Don't miss out. There will be something for everyone here. Glass pipes and pieces on sale. Live bands, rappers, and DJ's bringing the best they have to offer. Tell your friends. Tell your friends to tell their friends.

The Detroit Pub

Don't forget to sign the petition and send the link far and wide (friends, FaceBook etc.)  We presently have about 200 signatures.  When you sign letters are automatically sent to President Obama, your two federal Senators and your one federal House "member."  We are also in the early stages of trying to launch similar petitions in Canada and the UK.

My address for the 11/21/2009 Legalization Protest is now available for viewing at the following link:

Lots of interesting comments from this video which has already had over 500 viewings.  I did want to point out that I really did not mean to single Adam Brook out.  Many NORML  members, in Michigan, were aware of the event and not a single NORML member showed up.  It is even possible that Adam was with John Sinclair who was in Europe at the time of the event.

I also have 2 new MERP-related articles:

Drug Policy Expert Challenges Obama to a Debate on Marijuana Re-Legalization if he does not immediately Re-Legalize as a Matter of National Security
http://www.newagecitizen.com/MERP/RelegalizeNowObama30.htm

Is NORML Really For The Personal Cultivation of Marijuana:
Part 1: (1970 - 1986)
http://www.newagecitizen.com/MERP/RelegalizeNowObama31.htm

I also highly recommend checking out the video and audio tapes from Gregg Pallaast.  It is not directly related, however, it gives insights into exactly how the WTO is pushing us all towards a New World Order, which is interconnected with the global trade in illicit drugs.

Finally, please continue to spread the word on MERP and encourage all of your friends to sign the petition.  The time to demand that Obama let us "grow our own" is now!

Yours in Peace and Freedom,

Bruce W. Cain

Petition for the Immediate Re-Legalization of Marijuana by implementing MERP through a Special Joint Session of Congress:

We the undersigned demand that President Obama immediately implement he MERP Model for Marijuana Re-Legalization through a special emergency “joint” session of Congress.  This is the same approach that was used to pass the TARP Bailout on 10/03/2008: a bill that was opposed by over 80% of the American People and which only benefited the very same “banksters” that have destroyed the US economy.  According to a recent Zogby Poll Marijuana Re-Legalization is now supported by 52% of the American people and is expected to grow by at least 1% each year.   The MERP model basically treats the unlimited, untaxed, unregulated “self cultivation” of Marijuana as a sacred, inalienable right.  By implementing MERP three important goals would immediately be achieved without any expenditure of American “blood or treasure.”  It would (1) destroy the Mexican Drug Cartels; (2) allow access to free medicine by the sick and the poor, and (3) will immediately stop any further home invasions by law enforcement.  It will also unleash the Agricultural and Industrial products that can be made from Cannabis (e.g., Hemp).   Note that a street address is optional as long as you provide an email address.  The purpose of this petition is to send a message to Obama and alert the activist community about upcoming events to end Marijuana Prohibition by implementing the MERP Model.

_____________________________________________

I am so pleased by the news coverage we received from last Saturday's Re-Legalization protest in Dearborn.   I am not pleased that, despite contacting many NORML and MMMA members, not a single member of either group attended the protest.  Still we got two news stories out of the protest as well as news coverage on Channel 7: 7 PM and 11 PM.  A video of my address, demanding an immediate implementation of the MERP Model, will soon be made available on YouTube.  The main focus of the speech was to demand a special joint session of Congress to end Marijuana Prohibition and allow immediate, unlimited, untaxed, unregulated "self cultivation" by all adult Americans over the age of 18.

Two versions of the above petition are now available and will be circulated for the next 12 months in order to collect a million signatures and, in the process, spread the word about our immediate solution for achieving Marijuana Re-Legalization throughout the United States. 

The online version sends letters to both Obama and your Congressional Representatives, based on your zip code.  It takes less than a minute to sign the online version.  Please take a minute to sign the petition and send the link to all of your friends.  If you have a website you can also place a widget on your website using the embed code you will find available on the petition form.

There is also a Adobe Acrobat version that can be printed on any printer connected to a computer.  Completed forms can be sent in to the address at the bottom of each petition.  This is also important because there are still many Americans that don't have ready access to the internet.

Finally you can read more about the rational for circulating this petition at the following link:

Petition for the Immediate Re-Legalization of Marijuana by implementing MERP through a Special Joint Session of Congress
http://www.newagecitizen.com/MERP/RelegalizeNowObama29.htm

One final thought.  With each passing day Americans are getting arrested and Mexicans are getting murdered.  And all of this is happening because the government will not let us simply "grow our own."  Without even collecting a dime of taxes, from implementing MERP, 27 Billion dollars in Mexican Drug Cartel profits will stay in the United States creating jobs and generating tax revenue for Federal State and local governments.

The other day I was on Casper Leitch's show "Time for Hemp."  Kiddingly he said "You know what is wrong with the MERP Model?  It makes too much sense."

Casper is absolutely spot on with that comment.  But I have to tell you something.  This country is in dire trouble right now.  And if we don't start making sensible demands of our government immediately, we will all suffer. 

So please try to wrap your minds around this. 

Should we succeed in this effort every American Citizen will be able to "grow their own" Cannabis legally, the day after Congress completes the actions specified in the petition.  And Agricultural and Industrial applications of Cannabis will also be able to move forward at this time.  Jack Herer is still in serious condition from his recent heart attack suffered at HempStalk on September 12th.  What better way to honor his decades, of spreading the word about Hemp, than to make his dream a reality while he is still alive.  I think this is the very least that we can do for Jack.

So please take a minute to sign the petition.  Take another minute to print off a few petitions to circulate through friends, clubs and other gatherings.  Let's get this done so that we can begin to address other serious problems that are currently plaguing our country.  And the more effort we put in individually, the quicker we will be able to "grow our own," free from any encumbrances of government interference.

Yours in Peace and Freedom,

Bruce W. Cain
