while some people are posting polls to ban people from this site others are writing

letters to change the laws and getting published!
2009 Binghamton Press & Sun-Bulletin

LEGALIZE MARIJUANA

In New York, we spend about $1 billion on marijuana enforcement, not
including long-term jailing. With a $13 billion budget gap, why not
save ourselves the money and shift to a legalization, regulation and
taxation policies similar to that of alcohol? There are also the
documented health benefits afforded to suffering AIDS and cancer
patients forced to go into a dangerous underground market to get what
many feel is their medicine. Luckily, New York is at least taking the
medicinal uses seriously, as shown by bills in the Assembly (A0576)
and Senate (S. 4041-A).

Contact your state legislators. Tell them we cannot afford current
marijuana laws, and urge them to support their respective bills. As a
person acquainted with two people suffering from cancer, I believe
it's a shame they cannot legally obtain a drug that has been shown to
improve the quality of life while they go through their treatments.

Polls to ban people?

Well, I've decided my time trying to educated people through "marijuana" forums is pretty much a waste and wrote some letters myself:

I started using palmspringsbum years and years ago because I needed a user name and I was living in palm springs and it was the first thing that came to mind.

I've become rather attached to it, tough I've often been told to change it "for the good of the movement".

My opinion is that if people can't judge me by my words and actions their opinion isn't important. Besides it seems to get people's attention.

My real name is on the bottom of my web pages, but I don't think it's on my blog or my forum. It also appears if you do a look-up on my website.

I have written under my real name and had things published, but not recently. I haven't really thought about it. I used CApatient in those posts because I had to register and it wouldn't take palmspringsbum; too many letters, too long.

I suppose if I want to be taken seriously and make a name for myself I should use my real name, but I like being palmspringsbum - and it's not like my real name's a secret.

And, the fact is, my real name is rather unusual. You know my grandmother originally named my father "J". The letter "J". He had 7 brothers and sisters, and they all had pretty normal names: Evelyn, Duncan, Virginia... I asked my grandmother why she named him that once and she said she like the letter "J".

Well, come to think of it, I forgot one of his sisters, Minnie Lee.

It was always a hoot to introduce her to men. She was built like Dolly Parton, except she had bigger tits and more curves. My grandma had a real sense of humor. There was nothing "minnie" about Minnie Lee. Except that she was about as wide (at the top) as she was tall.
