Ken Gorman/Governor 7/12/1946 - 2/17/2007

[burnt_hiphophead]

The more I think about this the more I feel sick over it. I hope all of Ken's real-life family and friends somehow know that there is an entire online community thinking of him and mourning with them.


Gov


For what it's worth, I really appreciate all the work he did.

This is so sad and senseless.

Most everyone else on Yahooka, including myself, is almost all talk, talk, talk and no action. The Gov actually had the balls to be completely open about his use and advocate legalization whenever he could. Legalization and spreading information was a large part of the Governor's life. RIP Ken Gorman, and may your cause be won soon so we can all celebrate what you fought so hard for.

Me too man.

What a shame to lose such a caring and down to earth individual.

RIP Ken

The joint I smoke tonight will be for you brother.

There was the one person from here I was interested in talking to.

This is just another reason why people who grow pot whether for personal consumption, or for sale and distribution, or medical purposes should just keep thier mouths shut even if they have the proper permits.

Because of this incident, I am now on a quest to remove everyone of my posts for security. At 10 posts per day, I should be finished sometime around June.

cya!

I understand why you feel that way, but Ken would've been saddened (as am I) to see that. He would not want any of us to go into hiding. Keep up the fight and KOSTJ.

OMG, this is horrible he was a good man
