Stand Up Against C-15!

I was told about this website that was an online petition against C-15, called 
whyprohibition.ca . A compilation of user blogs, political banter and it gives common people the easy access to stand up and fight to shoot down prohibition. People who may not feel the need to stand up publicly to do so can now anonymously protest against it. 

Bill C-15 is " an act to amend the Controlled Drugs and Substances and to make related and consequential amendments to other acts" - The Minister of Justice- The Hon. Robert Douglas Nicholson. Basically this bill is about giving people who are facing drug charges a minimum sentence penalty. Much like the United States. It basically takes the judges job away from them. There is no case specifics, every case is dealt with as if it was like the last. One case will set president and the rest will have to be subject to it's doom. 

Marijuana is less harmful than alcohol, cigarettes and McDonalds so why the bad wrap? If controlled the government could thrive on BC's perfect cannabis growing climate. Mass produce it, different strains, different prices, different highs or uses and tax it. They would be making money off of a less toxic habit. Though studies have shown that marijuana does affect your mobility skills and your thought processes short term (when you're high) there are no definitive long term health issues. Unlike smoking cigarettes which contain more poisons and toxins than I could even imagine sucking into my body, or alcohol which permanently damages your liver. People in China have been using cannabis since 6000 BC! They put it to use as a health aid, smoking it alleviates pain and they took advantage.

If the government was smart enough to harvest this god given miracle plant they could genetically alter it to be a super-drug. Think about if the government took just a little bit of the money that they have for AIDS and Cancer funding and put it towards scientists who's job was to find the exact cannaboids to breed and make a plant that has less side effects than pain killers but is specialized to each type of disease. They've already taken the first step in making medicinal use of marijuana legal. People with Crones disease, or Rheumatoid Arthritis can go in and get a bag of dry chalky buds and smoke it to alleviate their pain. So what's so bad about the rest of us doing it? 

Go to the sight and take a stand against Bill C-15. Why take a step backwards when we were going the right way in the first place?

As well the blog post "Shit Or Get Off The Pot" was my fav so far. Check it out.

FUCKING RIGHTS! Saw this on I Can Read about 30 seconds ago. Figured it needed to be shown across the universe. Pretty much the key to life.

I Am Officially Disappointed In People

Today I am officially disappointed in people. People who have been raised in a home where I am most likely sure that they learned rights and wrongs. Wrongs like theft or vandalism. It's unfortunate to know that some people will be so nice to your face and act like a genuine friend or someone who is interested in your life and even goes to the point of saying that if anything were to "go down" they would be on your side. Someone who says that they would stand up for you and your well being in a situation in which you need help, but is completely bullshitting you to your face. It is truly sad that when I opened my home to someone who was a friend of a friend would disrespect my hospitality and steal from my friend, steal something from my house not knowing who's it was. Then proceeding to slash ONE tire of a person who he probably hadn't even said one word to. It's bothering to know that these people one day will potentially have children of their own. Children that they will have the biggest influence on the way that they represent themselves than any other person. To think that one day these vandals, thieves, murderers, hard core drug dealers and gang members will be raising spawn of their own (or not raising) and taking on their views, beliefs, mannerisms, and ideas scares the shit out of me. Say what you mean, do unto others as you want to be done to you and man up to your "mistakes".

I See A Trend

Sick Sick Sick! But NOT in the good way. Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood are back in bed. The almost 40 year old, who might I add has a spectacular looking dating record is (legally) screwing the 21 year old (who might I add has an unfortunate looking dating record) Across The Universe alumni. Don't get me wrong, Across the Universe was a SPECTACULAR movie (minus Bono because he makes me want to rip my ears and eyes off my body). Marilyn Manson is currently practicing sexual activity with someone who does not fall within my divide in half plus seven rule but she is legal and we will give her that. To be honest I was not against ERW (that's my personal nickname for her of course) Thirteen was a pretty sweet movie, true story though I hated her Character. White Oleander, really good book, decent movie, sympathised for her character, still didn't like her. But it wasn't until she came between the lovely Miss Dita Von Teese and Mr Manson that did it. Obviously I don't care enough about their relationship to choose sides it was the transformation that bugged me. Why do people think that they need to change their entire image to please someone? It wasn't until she started dating her father...er .... I mean Marilyn, that she turned "dark"and started dressing in pin up style dress with pale skin and bright red lips. Be who you are girl! Not that I liked you that much in the first place.

I Guess Axe Really Does Work

Personally I can't stand the smell of the ever so popular Axe Body Spray(s), but a 34 year old Clarington Ontario coach apparently does. The overwhelming smell of the aerosol form pubescent boy odorizer pouring out of the male locker room must have had a major effect on her. At least enough to believe it was a good idea to romance her 14 year old team member into the back seat of her car. The two statutory fornicators were found inside of her vehicle in a rural area where the police caught them in the act while looking for a missing vehicle. The idea of a teacher and student having sex is a whole different level of gross, and I understand older women wanting to "date" younger men. But if you're 34, divide your age in half and add 7 that equals . . . . . 24! That is the age of the YOUNGEST person this pedolicious woman should even think about putting inside of her. As far as I'm concerned Axe is still heinously repulsive, teachers, coaches and parents shouldn't be diddling the young impressionable CHILDREN they are guiding and if you're going to participate in a little statutory rape situation, maybe do it somewhere a little more private than a parked car in a public area.

How Tan is Too Tan?


How tan is too tan? I saw a girl recently who's skin wasn't even a real color. It seems that more and more girls are beginning to tan way too much, and most of them too young. Obviously they don't think about any harmful repercussions of the hours they spend laying in cancer boxes. But the one thing that I don't understand the most is how they think they look good. How can someone with naturally white skin think that a thick orange tinge is an attractive thing? Enough that they're spending hundreds of dollars and hours of their time making it happen. I'm not going to lie, occasionally I do hit the tanning beds, but not to an excess. Any person who goes for 20 minutes, more than once or twice a week is just asking for a visit from our old friend melanoma. Understandably a nice bronzy glow is attractive but take a break. As soon as you start looking like a browning carrot maybe it's time to think about laying off and going outside, seeing what some real vitamin D does for your skin. It's just as harmful, much less expensive and you don't have to lie in a bed that hundreds of other naked people have been in.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?


So as I'm sure you've heard there has been a gunplay pandemic in the lower mainland (Vancouver and surrounding areas) due to a gang problem. Unfortunately BC has been deemed Canada's "gang capital". Which I find very unfortunate obviously, since I live here. The problem has left almost more people dead than the amount of days that the shootings have been happening. I'm not going to do the research and give you the dates and circumstances of them all, I'm not THAT dedicated, if you care, look it up. The most disturbing of the shootings happened on Monday, a woman and her four year old son were driving in Surrey (of course) and her car was sprayed by gunfire, leaving her dead at the wheel of her car and her son unharmed (thankfully) but scared. The car was then directed off the road by a trucker who saw. That is bloody ridiculous and ruthless. These people are clearly not smart but you'd think that they would have some sort of moral decency enough to not shoot a woman in front of her four year old son leaving him without a parent. His father is a whole different story not even wanting to take custody of his own son. 

But I have been sidetracked, the main reason that I am so confused about it is the news. A man was on the news today talking about the gang violence and he didn't lay the blame on the "bosses" or the gang members, nay, he said that the real way to stop this gang warfare is to thwart the purchase and trading of MARIJUANA! I'm sorry but if you and I stopped buying weed (no matter how good our business is) it would not stop this feud. This guys head was clearly stuck somewhere in his rectum and he should seriously think about having it removed before he addresses the general public on national television again. If weed really was the problem wouldn't Amsterdam have a lot more gang wars happening? You don't hear about too many shootings or gang problems in Amsterdam, because they're all HIGH and probably too lazy! It's the expensive drugs like cocaine and heroin that are causing people to flip their shit. Maybe they should smoke a little more weed and then they wouldn't have to go out and kill anybody. Though I'm no expert in things that make people kill I am quite sure that the people purchasing weed are not the cause of the problem and haters should just back the shit off and move to a red state if you have a problem. We live in BC home of the best weed in the world so chill the fuck out and smoke one. Maybe then they'd be too lazy to drive their armored cars out to shoot at some people that they have most likely had no direct problems with. 

Welcome!

First blog post, this is pretty momentus I'm not going to lie I'm a little nervous as to how I will be recieved. The first thing....well I guess second thing I have to say is a little bit like a disclaimer. All ideas and oppinions are obviously that of my own otherwise I would not be sharing them. Unfortunately if you don't agree with what I have to say that sucks, as you are reading MY thoughts and if you have a problem that you feel needs to be voiced let me know, I'll read what you have to say, I'm open to other ideas, if I don't agree you will know and that's that. So enjoy or don't enjoy, your choice. Either way I'll do what I do and I promise that my next post will be much more substantial and interesting.
