    Despite dire threats from the US Government promising to hold back $10 million in aid, the voters of the Northern Marianas Islands decided to legalize cannabis!

    Not only will this be a boon to their fragile local economy, it is a delightful slap in the face for the draconian drug lords of the USA. This is the first time a territory of the US or state has legalized cannabis since it was scheduled a class 1 drug.

    Great News! Take that Obama!

    Considering that legalizing cannabis was the #1 concern for both Democrats and Republicans when they asked on their websites what people wanted the government to do, they've done precious little to address the concerns of their constituents.

    I am very intrigued to witness how this Parlimentary action will change course of tourism and economics in the area. I am also glad to see the swift backhanded morality of right wing authorities be resisted by the people of a land.

    Kudos

    [rant]Ok, but when was the last time we really expected those bastards (The Fed's that is) to be concerned with the will of we the people without a Riot or dire threats of revolt being involved? ;)

    I'm long done with believing the lies, anything they do "in our favor or interests" is only minor and merely another carrot on the stick to keep us Jackasses pulling their fucking cart...

    At this point my only "real hope" for seeing any rollbacks of the overebloated Federal parasite lay in the hopes that some GMO researcher will really let loose some sort of 28-day's-later Zombie virus, nothing short of a Zombie hoard will drive them to the bottom of the sea where they belong with the rest of the crustaceans and decayed matter. (Hate to wish it on the fish I do)

    In this country we are Guilty until proven innocent and treated like little more than fucking livestock, but the Dupes keep going to the Polls like it's going to help any.

    I have no doubt we'll see them pass full legalization eventually but I doubt anything less than the end of a gun barrel will change their minds on working to please we the Sheeple as any sort of priority in their agenda.

    And I really think they're in a pretty safe spot as the bulk of this culture seems to have been castrated by media based brainwashing and the de-educational system they keep pumping our kids through like a big fucking feedlot, loading them with 100% grade A Bullshit.[/rant]

    To celebrate, let's learn about the Northern Marijuana, err, I mean Mariana islands.

    Wow, I wonder what the reason is for there being nearly twice as many women as men in the Marianas. Are they like other Pacific Islands where drunkenness among men takes its toll?

    Let's see if this one small country can start a tidal wave of other countries to reconsider and legalize cannabis!

    I'm thinking a lot of men probably go overseas, Australia, New Zealand, and especially Hawaii since I believe they're US citizens to look for better work.

    Then you can expect that ratio to change very quickly, as they go home/stay home to create and sell amazing weed and show up the rest of the US.

    Oh what the fuck is it with these scumbags in the US government, fucking bullies! Well done to this country for legalising it.

    I doubt it will ever happen in the UK, not in my lifetime anyway.

    If the UK would collectively unclench their ass cheeks it could happen. But I wouldn't hold your breath.

    There ya go! :2thumbsup:


    Or pry your lips off of it. Something Canada obviously doesn't know how to do. We've been kissing the US's collective ass so hard we'll leave a bruise if we ever stop.

    Ah, the Scottish and their violence, gotta love it.


    Sometimes celebrities (Gene Simmons and Donald Trump are two that come to mind) come to Canada and try to pitch ideas and whatnot through the media. It's pretty sad. They see this huge untapped market and they wanna figure out how to buy it. The thing is, most of Canada just doesn't give a shit about celebrities and making people rich and famous and all of that. Even our own artists, writers, actors, comedians aren't that well known in their own country, which is why most go to the states for work.

    I'm sure they will probably turn over way more than that per year from sales of MJ anyway.

    Fuck American bullshit.
