We’re happy to announce the formation of another international chapter in Spain, known as NORML España! Carlos M. Cardenas is the founder, and he’s already gotten his NORML chapter involved in ExpoCannabis in Spain this weekend.
Koolio, my wife teaches spanish and has been to Spain twice, she is very happy to hear this. If you need any translation help she said she can do Russ!
HOLA!!!!
Yes! Up & Running in Spain as it was the right moment.
Our campaing was based on two unsual facts about Cannabis hardly heard in Spain: 1. It never killed anyone and 2. It is not a drug but a medicine for millions of people.
We set the legal paper work right, mission, vission, campaing, web site, assistance to ExpoCannabis with our own stand (pics coming), press release, advertising material, research of medical cannabis in Spanish, travel and etc.
We managed to made it all in 2 incredible weeks and got our share on prime time national tv on a sunday.
And GRACIAS to everybody who put their heart and soul in this incredible adventure and putting a voice to responsable medical cannabis users that has been heard all the way to the top. En Español.
Talk about lazy potheads lol
Love you all!!!
This is really good news, but I don’t favour at all basing a campaign in the “facts” mentioned by Carlos. Definitely, cannabis is a drug and there’s no way to deny it. Indeed, many drugs have medicinal value, but this has never been a sound argument for legalisation. The same happens with the imposiibility to get a lethal overdose from cannabis. I hope you’ll eventually get to a better approach to the question, since our government is getting tougher every time and we just cant’ wait for the Obama effect to get here. Anyway, welcome to Spain.
