Spread the word about May 6th!
Bring colour,energy and enthusiasm!
Nature cannot be illegal.
World Wide Marijuana March (WWMM) has held street stalls and organised two music events – ‘Smoke Signals’ in Dublin city centre, to raise awareness about the upcoming public demonstration to be held on the 6th of May 2007 at 2pm in Dublin City Centre in support of legalising Cannabis recreational use, medical application and encouraging more industrial Hemp use.
WWMM Spokesperson, Tim Reilly, commented, "World Wide Marijuana March is a broad movement of people who have come together to end the criminalisation of Cannabis. We view Cannabis use as something that can be enjoyed in a responsible manner and substantially less harmful to individual health if it is controlled and regulated and people are educated about safer use and the risks involved in it's abuse.”
"We hope to bring has been attatched to it, by decades of lies and deceit. We plan to work bit by bit, for as long as it takes to improve the overall situation for cannabis users and we believe we have already begun to succeed in this goal. We do not expect this to be an easy or a short road, but we intend to stay with it to the end!"
"Accusations that Cannabis use leads to schizophrenia should be seen in light of the fact that Alcohol use is also likely, to cause serious mental health problems and regulation of Cannabis could greatly reduce the risks involved. We feel that the continued criminalisation of Cannabis is what in fact makes Cannabis a gateway drug and only by legalising Cannabis can we remove the ‘gateway’ effect caused by the violent drug gangs who currently control the drugs trade.”
“WWMM-Ireland calls on the government to rethink the out-dated laws on recreational use of Cannabis and act fast to allow its highly beneficial medical applications. To allow for the private growth of Cannabis and to encourage the industrial development of Hemp which can be highly useful as a Bio-Fuel, to name but one of many uses.”
“We have been getting a large amount of interest from the public and expect a large turnout on the May 6th rally. Anyone interested in realising the Legalisation of Cannabis is urged to join with WWMM in Dublin in solidarity with the numerous demonstrations that will be taking place throughout the world, in Dublin’s first ever "Anti-Prohibition of Cannabis March".”
