I can't believe you all talk about smoking an illegal stubstance so freely with each other. Everyone who smokes it can be instantly addicted. Smoking pot is disgusting! How could anyone tarnish Hitler's birthday like this. Grrrrrr!
Yeah, Hitler was the biggest drug going, at the time, and look what happen when Germany OD on him.
you should educate yourself on Cannabis ... it seems you know nothing about it ... Cannabis is long over-due for legalization
I don't particularly have a problem with people smoking pot (in moderation) but the whole "National Weed Day" is a real pain in the ass where I live.
I live right in the middle of the city, it's usually very nice. The problem comes when somebody tries to organise a get together nearby to celebrate. This probably starts out harmless enough, but it just attracts the wrong kind of people. There was a noticeable increase in police activity, inconsiderate loud music early in the morning etc.
A group were dispersed from outside a friends apartment block after parking their car on the historical ruins outside and then blaring music out at 7am!
The whole thing has done nothing but perpetuate the stereotypes that you are all trying to avoid!

So, legalise, and all that will just go away.
You can't smoke-up because you must work.
That's it. Nothing more.
Agreed, but this has hardly done anything to win over public support for the idea of legalisation.
move to the burbs ... living downtown you have to learn to be accepting of many others ... the city belongs to everyone
I don't have a problem with events generally, it's why I like it here. The problem is that for this particular event, the organisers are operating outside of the law. Arrange it with the council, have some proper policing and I'll come down and party with you. Turn up early in the morning with no notice and wake everyone with your loud music, trample on historic monuments and attract a load of drug dealers and you aren't going to get the same reception.
It's the same thing you get everywhere I guess. A small group of people cause trouble that reflects on the larger majority. Perhaps if it does become legal we can have a proper festival in the coming years!

Lol sorry. You must be high because I may be the biggest stoner here.. 8)
