As I stated at an organizational meeting a few weeks ago at the Libertarian HQ on 9 Mile:

'I will not stand in the way of a Medical-only Initiative (at this point anyway), however, I will also not be an active participant as I think Medical Marijuana Initiatives are past history and no longer worth a wooden nickel.  Unless the Controlled Substances Act (1970) is abridged to reclassify Marijuana, as a Class 3 or 4 drug, such initiatives have absolutely no value. This is abundantly clear from the accelerating closures of Medical Grow Operations in California over the last six months.'

I'm presently completing a disk-web compilation of New Age Patriot: my self-published magazine on drug reform which circulated nationally from 1989-1997.  Once I have completed this "little" project I will be laying plans for a people's initiative that will revert to the types of tactics that extricated us from Viet Nam.  I was hoping that such measures would not be necessary.

In the coming months I believe we need to sit down and develop some new strategies and tactics.  We need to find the Achilles heel and we need to severe it.

MARIJUANA USE: REIN IN RUNAWAY IMMUNE SYSTEM

OTTAWA -- Smoking marijuana several times a week leaves a lasting effect on
a healthy person's immune system, a new study from Florida says.

This finding may actually boost opportunities for the medical use of marijuana.

The effect of marijuana smoking suppresses the immune system by altering
the molecules on the outside of some of our cells, and suppressing
inflammation at the same time.

This could be a useful tool in combatting diseases where the immune system

runs out of control and causes painful, and sometimes dangerous

inflammation in our bodies, say scientists at the University of South
Florida and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).

CANCER PATIENT ALLOWED TO USE MARIJUANA, BUT CAN'T GET IT LEGALLY

An Eilat resident who received permission from the Health Ministry to use
marijuana for medicinal purposes is nevertheless unable to obtain the drug
without breaking the law.

The man, who suffers from cancer, is one of eight terminal patients who
received an unusual ministry permit to grow, possess and use marijuana to
ease their pain.

But the drug is not legally available in Israel, and the ministry refused
to supply them itself. Furthermore, the permit to grow the drug applies
only to the patient himself rather than to his wife - and the bedridden
terminal patient is physically incapable of doing so. The Eilat patient's
wife even tried asking the police to give her husband some of the marijuana
they had confiscated during drug raids, but they also refused.

Having thus exhausted all her ideas for obtaining the drug legally, the
wife yesterday asked Eilat's regional radio station for help in publicizing
her plight.

Major General Yoav Sieglowitz, the commander of the Eilat Police, said that
though he was sorry for the couple, he could not legally help them. "The
permit was given to the bedridden husband, not to her," he explained - and
therefore, it would be a criminal offense for police to give her marijuana
from their stock of confiscated drugs.

Health Ministry spokesman Ido Hadari said there is currently no way to
supply the drug legally. However, Hadari added, the ministry is working on

ways to import it from the Netherlands, where it is available legally

CANNABISNESS: SPRINGING UP

Suzie, 36, is a respectable mother of three who left accountancy to launch
a successful landscape gardening business. But it is the healthy crop that
she cultivates in her own flower beds that might surprise her well-to-do
clients, among them a judge and a number of police officers and solicitors.

For lovingly tended at the back of her 40ft garden in suburban
Southend-on-Sea sits an elegant grove of Cannabis sativa - still an illegal
Class C drug, according to David Blunkett's reclassification, but soon, if
Suzie is right, just another social relaxant to go legally on sale.

Once the law changes, as she believes it will, Suzie plans to launch her
own cannabis cafe so she can profit from the expected boom in demand. "It
will cost me about UKP 7,000 to open my Southend coffee shop, and I've
already had offers of backing," she says. "I'd be hesitant about supplying

the shop myself, but I do have a friend who would grow for me."

NOVA SCOTIA JUDGE RULES AGAINST MAN WHO WANTS TO SMOKE MEDICINAL POT IN PRISON

HALIFAX - In an unusual legal case, a Nova Scotia judge ruled Tuesday that

the rights of a man who uses marijuana to treat chronic pain would not be
violated if he were sent to prison and cut off from his steady supply of
the drug.

Michael Patriquen, 49, of Halifax failed to convince the Supreme Court
justice that she should delay sentencing him for drug trafficking so he
could argue in a special hearing that his charter rights would be trampled
if he were sent to a federal penitentiary and denied access to medicinal
marijuana.

Patriquen, who was convicted in 2000, received a federal exemption this
year to grow and possess a certain amount of the drug prescribed to him to
treat neck pain caused by a car accident three years ago.

His lawyer said he should not be sentenced until Ottawa can make legal
medicinal marijuana available to him while her serves a six-year sentence
for selling the drug in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.

MARIJUANA DEMONSTRATORS SHOW SUPPORT FOR CROSSLIN, ROHM

Rainbow Farm Revisted

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. -- The Bob Marley anthem thumping on the boombox said

it all for the handful of marijuana rights activists paying sidewalk

tribute to their friends Grover "Tom" Crosslin and Rolland "Rollie" Rohm on

Tuesday night.

"Get up, stand up. Stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up. Don't give
up the fight."

This northern Michigan resort town is more than 200 miles from Rainbow Farm
Campground near Vandalia.

Mentioning either the place or the September 2001 deaths of Crosslin and
Rohm a year ago to locals would result in a quizzical look at best.

SUPREME COURT TO CONSIDER POT LAWS

Ban On Marijuana Unconstitutional, Lawyers To Argue

OTTAWA - Marijuana users who claim the drug is harmless will have their chance to sway Canada's top

judges on Dec.  13 - a Friday.  Lawyers for three convicted pot smokers will argue that federal laws

banning possession, cultivation and trafficking of the fiercely debated herb are unconstitutional.

The much anticipated case was among 36 listed Wednesday by the Supreme Court of Canada in its busy

fall docket, which begins Sept.  30.

The schedule was announced the same day a Senate committee studying the issue said pot and hashish

possession should be legalized for residents 16 or older, and regulated much like alcohol.

Federal Justice Minister Martin Cauchon said the Senate committee recommendations would be

considered and that related laws are outdated.  But the government won't disclose its next move before

early next year, he added.

Ottawa has said it will start clinical trials as early as this fall to assess the benefits of medical marijuana.

The high court ruling on pot laws won't likely come until several months after its December hearing.

The appeal covers three cases involving Chris Clay of London, Ont., David Malmo-Levine of Vancouver

and Victor Eugene Caine of Langley, B.C.

All three men argue that pot, if properly grown and used, is harmless.  Moreover, they say, laws

prohibiting its personal use infringe the right to life, liberty and security of the person guaranteed by the

Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Clay, the former operator of a hemp boutique in London, Ont., was convicted in 1997 of drug possession

and trafficking for selling cannabis to an undercover police officer.

He failed to convince the trial judge that private, recreational pot smoking qualifies as a fundamental value

protected under the charter.  The judge also noted that cannabis is not completely harmless for all users.

POT PRESCRIPTIONS

The lives of hundreds of medical marijuana users in the
Toronto-Hamilton area have been thrown into chaos by a police raid on

a club that sold them dope.

Toronto police raided the Toronto Compassion Club in mid-August,
closing down the operation that bought dope from suppliers and sold it
at street value to users. Many of those people are legal medical
marijuana users with permits from the federal government. Others had
only prescriptions from their doctors.

The owners have been charged with trafficking. And now users say they
can't get the "medicine" they need to ease their pain or medical conditions.

PRESCRIPTION FOR CHANGE

Canadians should be able to choose marijuana as a medical option without a
doctor's approval, says a special Senate committee recommending the drug be
legalized.

Some concern remains about how effective pot is in easing pain, said

Senator Pierre Claude Nolin, chairman of the Special Senate Committee on
Illegal Drugs.

And as it stands now, doctors have too much power to control access to
medical exemption status, Nolin said.

"We've analysed how the regulations were implemented," he said. "We found
out doctors have too much of a role to play. They are the gatekeepers."

"We don't think that's appropriate."

OAKLAND -- Protesters planted marijuana sprigs in a concrete planter

As similar protests occurred in San Francisco and San Jose, California

From Jay Cavanaugh, Ph.D. <JCavana857@...>

Subject: CA: D.A. targets mentally ill cannabis patient.

All Concerned Citizens,

I am moved beyond words about the dreadful and avoidable tragedy of Dave
Whittaker. As you may remember my wife Nancy and I were able to meet Dave and
his wife Lisa earlier this year at an AAMC meeting in Garden Valley.

The suicide (can we call it murder?) of Dave Whittaker shows so clearly what
happens when communities give in to institutionalized indifference and petty
retribution. Dave Whittaker was hounded into suicide by individuals in
authority who disagreed with the Compassionate Use Act and took out their

disapproval on legitimate patients. Imagine this poor man prosecuted for
exercising his legitimate rights, exonerated by the Court, then targeted for
further prosecution for the exact same offense!

So what now for Dave's widow Lisa? What now for Dave's 13 year old son who
had his father suicide on the boy's birthday? More than one life was
destroyed by this pogrom against Dave.

We need not, indeed cannot, live in fear of our own representatives sworn to
uphold our laws and protect our communities. While nothing can bring Dave
back nor comfort his grieving family, at least the community can rally to
prevent such horrors in the future. A civil suit should be filed for wrongful
death. In addition, I recommend that the State Attorney General be contacted
to initiate an investigation of this sordid affair. Finally, I recommend that
an El Dorado Grand Jury be convened to address this important matter.

Life has its illness and loss. As people of faith we deal with that. What we
can't deal with it the deliberate destruction of innocent life by the very
people entrusted to protect us.

Yours,

Drugs Found on Jeb Bush's Daughter

 

By Mike Branom Associated Press Writer Tuesday, September 10, 2002; 9:25 AM

 

ORLANDO, Fla. –– Gov. Jeb Bush's daughter was found with cocaine at a

rehabilitation center where she is undergoing drug treatment, police said

Tuesday.

 

Police were called to the Center for Drug Free Living in Orlando late

Monday, where workers gave them a substance they said they found on Noelle

Bush, 25, Police Sgt. Orlando Rolon said.

The workers told police that the two grams of powder tested positive for

cocaine, but police didn't immediately arrest her because they couldn't

obtain a sworn statement that she was in possession of cocaine, Rolon said.

The investigation will continue, said Rolon, who added that police hadn't

interviewed Noelle Bush as of Tuesday morning.

 

Possession of any amount of cocaine is a felony, said police.

She was arrested in January at a Tallahassee pharmacy drive-through window

for allegedly trying to buy the anti-anxiety drug Xanax with a fraudulent

prescription.

 

In July, Noelle Bush was found to be in contempt of court because a worker

at the treatment center found her carrying prescription pills. A judge sent

her to jail for three days.

COLOMBIAN PARAMILITARY GROUPS VOW TO REFORM

Colombia's Right-Wing Paramilitaries Are To Give Up Drug Trafficking And
Massacring Opponents, They Claimed Yesterday.

Carlos Castano, the warlord who founded the United Self Defence Forces of

Colombia (AUC), dissolved the group a month ago after widespread abuses by
its members.

Since then paramilitary organisations have operated independently, but have
taken a battering from Marxist guerrillas and the state.

Leaders of 18 paramilitary groups met last week at a ranch in Uraba in north
Colombia and voted to reform and re-invent themselves.

"We have decided to abolish the practice of drug trafficking which served as
a source of finance for our organisation - and we have made a commitment to
comply with and respect human rights," said a letter signed by the leaders

of the group.

The announcement was met with scepticism. Castano's brother Fidel, who
founded the paramilitary force that evolved into the AUC, was a member of
the Medellin drug cartel until he fell out with its leader, Pablo Escobar.

Sources from the American Drug Enforcement Administration said that the
paramilitaries were deeply involved in the drugs trade.

The AUC was also responsible for more than two thirds of the human rights
abuses committed last year, according to rights groups. Massacring suspected

guerrilla sympathisers was the main tactic in their anti-subversive war.

Ibogaine has long been a customs prohibited drug import. I know that one medicine student wanted to do some research with it and his application was refused by the government on the basis that there is not enough evidence that ibgaine is effective or safe. So I am quite confident that there are no legal ibogaine treatments around.
However, individuals still do import small amounts every now and then (usually for their own treatment). This is however illegal and can land you a drug importation conviction.
There is nothing concrete I cold recommend here. I think it would be cheapest and safest to seek treatment in another country where ibogaine is legal.... and where there is more experience with it.

I am aware that there are two iboga plantations now in australia, which will eventually provide material that does not need to go through customs. However I would think that it would be at least another 2-3 years before any such material will become available.

No point. We have a very conservative USA puppet government at the moment with a useless opposition. Our government doesn't even allow heroin trials  as we have too much to loose. The US pressures our leaders that they will loose the poppy industry in tasmania (the largest legal poppy industry in the world) if we don't play by their rules. This has created an atmosphere of total paranoia about drugs and especially hallucinogenics. Australia even scheduled Salvia divinorum on the basis of its hallucinogenic effects - the only country in the world to do so.

There may be some hope that once we have a  local supply, that we can convince one of the more open minded state governments to run an iboga trial. This will simply not be possible without local material.

Our government deludes itself that the customs controls are working and that drugs will be reduced by its policies. This means that they do not want to send wrong signals by allowing a drug. Under this government australia will be one of the last places where ibogaine will find any recognition.

In australia most people are interested in cannabis - and that's it. Ethnobotanists are plentiful, but they are either scared or politically apathetic.

'Organised' and 'Nimbin' are not words that fit into the same sentence ;)
Nimbin Mardi Grass is a pretty big event, but the interest lies 99.9% in cannabis. There was actually a free ethnobotany event organised during the Mardi Grass and it was a total flop. The heroin problem up there fluctuates. The locals aren't really into heroin, but many travellers and city folk find this environment less threatening than where they are from, so they stay - much to the dismay of the locals. The government doesn't want to clean up Nimbin, as it has always been a sore spot for the system and they feel that heroin is slowly causing the community to self-destruct. Nimbin is also close to Byron Bay, the fashionable coastal surf town. Byron Bay was awash with junkies, however strategic decisions by police and state government caused most of the junkies to migrate to Nimbin, thus removing the social problems from their favourite playground.
There is a herbal highs store in Nimbin who has a lot of educational material and also access to some of the hard-to-get plant materials. They would love to do iboga education, but without a reasonably safe way of obtaining it in australia, they simply don't want to make things worse for people.
Don't know where you get your numbers from, but whoever told you they had 20,000 this (or last) year had obviously smoked a little too much ;)

[I don't see how it can hurt anything to make the information available. In our experience, making the info available in reprints is much more effective than trying to attract stoners to seminars. What it takes to move people is their ties to some one--a real person in their lives-- who has an addiction problem. Then they remember the Ibogaine and seek it out. They can always fly to another country. --Dana/cnw]

Subject: Marijuana Movement Unity and National NORML
Date: Mon, 9 Sep 2002 15:50:42 -0500
X-Priority: 3 (Normal)
Importance: Normal
Status:  

There are many facets to this lack of unity. Some former Hippies turned "Hip" lawyers within National NORML have obviously forgotten their roots and the attitudes of freedom that led them to the Marijuana Movement. Obviously not all of them are like this, but enough to cause the rest of us problems. Then there are those of us who don't realize that there is a time and place to be "Out" and a time to approach Mr. & Mrs. American Mainstreamer, who we obviously at least need to neutralize if not bring fully to our beliefs.

 

I fear there are some in National NORML who haven't learned about playing nicely with others, and have a personal agenda. This sadly seems to be the way NORML has functioned on a perpetual basis. In some aspects they have conducted a class war on Hippies. This does nothing but further divide the Movement as we are seeing now.

 

We are therefore faced with a choice: Continue on fragmented and hope against hope that small, underfunded, uncoordinated cells of activists can continue making progress in spite of the fragmentation, or we can work to make those causing the problems to understand their positions hurt everyone, themselves included.

 

NORML, historically and currently, has the golden opportunity of coordinating and fostering cooperation. Whether we want to admit it or not, NORML has great name recognition outside of our own ranks. It's the ideal blanket organization to brnig us together. We can then mix Hippie and Mainstreamer to get the message out to all people.

 

This of course can't happen until National understands they can't dismiss a large segment of their support. When you are bringing in hundreds of thousands around the world and National isn't cooperating to the fullest extent, National loses. When Rob Kampia is spearheading the Nevada effort and NORML isn't helping with resources, cash and people, National loses. When Bob Newland launches an industrial initiative in South Dakota and National twiddles their thumbs, National loses. When National loses, state and local NORML chapters lose.

 

We have to get those in power at National to understand that NORML exists because we allow it to. It's a micro- democracy. If National starts to pull some of the things they have done in the past again (e.g. like destroying the Freedom Fighters,) locals are going to once again stop supporting National. That hurts all in the Movement because National's reputation gets more tarnished which negates any positive contribution National makes from then on. We have fought this for years. We're wasting out time and energy doing this and we need to cooperate with all.

 

National has to realize that they have an important role to play. If they don't play it, the whole Movement suffers. I'm personally tired of fighting this war. I WANT TO WIN!

 

We need National. National needs us. We in individual chapters can only do so much. It's been the locals that have kept National alive, sometimes when we probably should have demanded changes in the National posture.

 

One of the things that I've observed over the years is the dissociation from other controlled substances in the wake of the mid to late 70's debacle involving Peter Bourne and Keith Stroup and the cocaine connection in the Carter White House. I have heard more than one NORML leader state it's not NORCL (National Organization for the Reform of Cocaine Laws) and that is very true. I have heard for several years from a couple of people involved with NORML that the fear of the Peter Bourne mess still exists and that NORML wanted to dissociate itself from any and all other substances, including Ibogaine for fear of an embarrassing repeat that cost the Movement a lot of ground. However, I'm wondering if this idea hasn't wrongly spilled over into the Ibogaine discussion.

I agree that NORML shouldn't take up the Ibogaine support as a major thrust of the organization, but it would also be wrong to disassociate ourselves from something that can have great positive impact on those who have developed chemical dependance and could use some help. I am, of course, aware of Ibogaine's import in solving substance abuse problems and the matter does dovetail with NORML's push for individual responsibility in that it is difficult to have personal responsibility with a serious chemical dependency problem. Ibogaine has been proven effective in combatting chemical dependency and National should take a position suppporting that. In the interim, I would settle just for cooperation between all other pro-Marijuana organizations and National.

 

It's ironic that Keith Stroup spoke here in Indianapolis two years ago at our MMM as he just happened to be in Indianapolis on other NORML business. This was done when I was running Allied Cannabis Reform Effort here...not even a NORML chapter. Yet there is no push to support you and Cures Not Wars on a national basis.

 

Please don't misunderstand me: I'm not being critical of Keith Stroup at all. Keith has done many things to support and further NORML's cause. It is my opinion after 30+ years as an activist that National needs to take a cooperative leadership role for the betterment of all. We are making serious inroads towards the destruction of prohibition. National NORML needs to be of

assistance to anyone working towards that end regardless of affiliation, sub cultural orientation or additional non-Marijuana promotion. All anti-Marijuana prohibition organizations need to reach out to other groups such as the Green Party and LP, environmental groups, grassroots democracy groups and all of those who should be natural allies. The problems associated with prohibition are well-connected to greater democracy disruption problems including the Nazifacation of America and government policies that limit democracy rather than expand it.

 

Hopefully National will begin to understand that we have to have that cooperation among other organizations if we are to succeed.

Subject: Re: Fw: Please use BCC! -OK

 

Dear MMM organizers,

  We at Cures Not Wars are in a quandary. There are some decade-out-of-date arguments against ibogaine that seem to come from the methadone lobby. (Who definitely are not friends of the cannabis movement.) That plus a personality flaw in Stroup, that makes him conflict with Dana, has spelled hassle for lots of us. A situation I had a hard time believing and understanding until I was assailed by its ripple effect in Michigan over the Detroit march of '01 and '02. Sorry you (Vivian and Dominick @ Seattle Hempfest) got dragged into that, it doesn't concern you and I don't think it was effecting you nor any of the Seattle crew. It is just an issue that can knock Dana off balance when lame personal attacks seem to have an effect the MMM organizers in the U.S.

  There is implicit approval of the email addresses on the CC because they are people active in rally and march organization and have had this info printed and distributed on the MMM poster and in letters so we can stay in contact with each other. I can't imagine you fear being exposed to anyone on the email list, right? I don't think anybody has used their work address (except the self employed) or care if other organizers see their address. Your BCC request was easy enough to implement and he probably had done so, but in replying, Dana wanted to go beyond that easy issue into a harder one.

  Besides, BCC isn't protection against federal authorities who can just tap into the NY POP server get the addys. They are already getting a BCC of all our email anyway, as influential as we are.

  I see all the West coast NORML branches as independents who are not beholden to Natl. NORML and their dictates. Dana, being in the thick of it in NY, usually can't see that independence. I try to hip him to that when we talk in person. A problem arises with Dana when he reads about Natl. NORML taking so much credit for Hempfest's and imply that they could do better in NY's MMM because of others' work. That is jive and hypocritical of them since they are so down on hippie culture, protesting and all. Interestingly, they don't bash the Ann Arbor Hash Bash, which draws tens of thousands every year, even though it is a "smoke-in." Nor do they bash High Times when they are a publishing a running documentary and codification of pot culture. So National NORML is too interested in claiming fame that is not theirs. Yet being afraid of those with pot pride. Meanwhile still willing to accept the donations and memberships that "smoke-ins" and other hippie events create. In Michigan the activists have been fed up with the traditional NORML lack of interest and support and have formed a new Statewide organization to work on our own ballot initiatives. We just didn't see a need for a national organization here. Will they throw down $10,000 to help get the PRA 2003 printed? They would say that is an inappropriate request for a State chapter to make. Years ago, Ethan Nadelmann told Greg Schmid that there would be no support for a PRA that protects recreational cannabis use, only medical. But opposing opinions do fade away sometimes. In the first edition of the Drug Policy Alliance newsletter the cover features this quote tucked into the end of Ethan's editorial.

" Where do we look for better alternatives? The Alliance plans to launch a major campaign to end marijuana prohibition in the United States. Examples from abroad are critical to this effort. Look around the world today: The Dutch effectively legalized..."

 

DPA now knows that you can't address industrial nor medical without including recreational and that you can't discuss treatment without including Ibogaine.

  I also think it's not cool to put all the burden of being divisive on Dana, he is just responding to what has been said about him, again not knowing that you weren't swayed, as he supposes. Besides the point of Viv's email was; contact me differently or I don't want to know your information anymore. Which is a self imposed divisiveness, right?

  As far as the MMM itself. There was a Seattle edition in 1999 and 2000, right? I don't think the first march of May requires anything that as elaborate as a Seattle Hempfest. It's a cumulative coalition effort so any size event qualifies. A simple, low-cost rally in a park or an even simpler sidewalk march, that requires no permit to do, should suffice. You don't need tens of thousands to get a little TV and ink. That should be especially true in a hip town like Seattle, so why not participate. I've heard the spreading too thin argument before, perhaps in a different context, but after five marches/all day rallies in Michigan on one day, the end result was five times more press coverage, lots more recruitment and double the activist participation than we would have had by just doing one in Lansing or Detroit. At Battle Creek's '01 march we had a small gathering of 38, but after we told the TV news that it was but one of 99 worldwide events they were still impressed and even  added some march footage from Albuquerque -from their network upline. Networks have learned that the M-word equals ratings. But the outsider response isn't even the point of the MMM, it is really an opportunity to grow the movement on a local scale. You do it to bring in new faces. Unless you can honestly tell me you have recruited every like-minded person in your corner of Amerikkka, you can't say that it isn't worth participating. On another note, I was also told that talking about Ibogaine to a pot crowd was a big turn off. Meanwhile, in Detroit this year, I turned a 30 person event into 200. Nobody ran away when the cured junkie from Ann Arbor got up and spoke.

  I hope you consider joining this, and joining Cures Not Wars. Also, give Dana a break, the poor hassled trailblazer that he is. Some people really are just playa-haters who are jealous because he invented the "smoke-in" (the oldest two of which are still happening to this day) and the international day of cannabis protest. (which is largely responsible for the change in cannabis policy in the UK)

God Forgive AmeriKKKa,

Please subscribe to new MMM email list. Public archive still open.

The public MMM email list at Yahoo Groups now requires people to subscribe

in order to post messages to the list and the public archive. For a few
weeks I set it up so that non-members could also send in email messages to

the list. That was to help people send in MMM rally reports. It worked.

The archive also got some spam too. That was deleted. But people should

keep sending in MMM-related stuff. Just subscribe first.

The MMM message archive itself is still public and accessible to anybody:
