As RIU's member base approaches 50,000(with almost 1,000,000 posts) , I have to ask myself: what are we doing together at RIU to gain our freedom back?
There are individuals who believe that "overgrowing the gov't" will get the job done.
Some believe that working through the law is the way. Many groups (NORML,etc) have fought tirelessly for decades for this reason.
Many forums work (Thank you RIU)to spread knowledge.
I, for one, try to discuss statistics, court cases, the history of MJ, overspending in our gov't and such to my friends and family. This is because the more we know as a nation, the higher our chances are of getting our freedoms back- to the way they were intended to be. This is the way I do MY part.
All of these methods are having an impact. But, I believe that in order to make a bigger impact, we must ALL(forums, advocacy groups, lobbyist, Medical associations, 420 day) gather together to really show our number. The true support for marijuana whether recreational or medicinal has not correctly been portrayed by the media. To really prove that the American people don't want this prohibition.
