Ooh, 600lbs of weed, what a successful bust! And the Mexican drug lords tremble!
But this gives me an idea. You know how some people take an ink stamp that says “I Grew Hemp” in cartoon balloon form and stamp it next to George Washington’s picture on the dollar bill, or an ink stamp of a pot leaf on their other paper currency? It’s nothing I would recommend, since defacing federal currency is illegal, but it is an interesting protest to let people know how much buying power the cannabis community has (and to inform people about Washington’s hemp farming).
So how about labeling baggies of weed with a sticker that says “OBAMA 1978″? The 1978 is my guess as to the last time President Obama smoked weed, since he mentions smoking “in his teenage years”. He was 17 in 1978 and this was before he moved to Los Angeles to attend Occidental College. If you get busted with your “OBAMA 1978″ bag, just tell police you’ve been holding it for Barry for 31 years.
Imagine that bust making the evening news and some anchor explaining the meaning behind “OBAMA 1978″…


What a great idea. I can’t say if I do this I will look forward to getting busted with a bag of weed, but it certainly would be a silver lining to the hassle of getting busted. As an added bonus if the bought the story that I was holding it since 78 for our pres and they test the weed, it would debunk the old “pot today is way stronger than the stuff your parents smoked back in the day” argument.
Radical Russ, the Obama ’78 idea is sheer brilliance. Can you imagine if a (hostile) reporter asked him about it at a press conference?
