I have been told that when a story starts with the words, "I was born...", ya knew you were in trouble, so... here is me. I was born in 1955, in a medium sized city in West Virginia. This is where I lived until I joined the military in 1975. This is also where, at the age of 15, I started toking. My military career was spent keeping my front in place... work hard and play hard. I was deeply "in the closet" for the entire 20 years, with one exception. I successfully steered a US Naval vessel to pay for a "party"... 'nuff said. I was married for a while (24 years) and raised 4 children after a divorce through their teenage years, successfully. I have 5 kids. Two of them nurses or nurses to be. Two of them are US Marines. The other one is a US Soldier. I also have 11 grandchildren. Other than my 20 years in the military, I am a musician (Jazz/Blues) playing sax and violin (sex & violence), photographer, poet, writer, farmer, beer brewer, chandler, mead maker, carpenter, did some work in the adult entertainment industry for 6 years, daddy and grampa. I now live off the land in Northwestern Minnesota and in my spare time I fight for cannabis legalization.

Per Judge Gray on this video: “The best thing I can do for my country is to help us repeal drug prohibition. It’s the most patriotic thing I’m able to do and we’re going to be successful”.

That’s exactly how I feel.

Two years after the madness has ended has always been what I’ve said. After that two years of legalization those who have opposed it will just wonder where there head was, and it’ll be hard to not tell them.

Hipp, thanks for posting this. It reminded me of a “Call to action” Judge Gray made to the nation two years ago.

If you were impressed with 8+ minutes of Judge Grays logic and experience, I have a link to a one hour video of his passionate “Call To Action – Why Our Drug Laws Have Failed”.

Please be warned that this is over an hour long. http://tiny.cc/1hour

Peace!!
