NORML@40: In the Beginning (Part I)

www.norml.org - The National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws enters its fifth decade of representing responsible cannabis consumers. To mark the occasion we look back on the past forty years with those who lived it. In this first installment, NORML founder Keith Stroup talks about the experiences that lead him to founding the organization, including inspiration from the likes of Ralph Nader and Fmr. Attorney General Ramsey Clark.

Keith is a genuine difference maker

I like repeal better, and there is a long list of laws needing repeal, starting with the misnomer Patriot laws, then some of the laws authorizing secret agencys that do things like subvert other nations governments and are now busy subverting out own. We need a whole congress and president that do nothing but repeal thousands of laws untill we get our republic back as well as our prosperity.

@vx3k each and every vote matters, it matters that we participate or there will be NO changes. WE are the power, WE are the saviors we've been waiting for, WE make THAT much of a difference.

THEY want you to believe you have no power, that your voice and vote do not matter - that! is the trick and if you believe it they win. Getting involved IS the answer and voting and backing good people, we will change the country and the world.

Honestly, A vote does NOT matter, It is an illusion of making a change, the change must be made by individuals and communities, not through government agencies who just suck as much power as possible by feeding on peoples' fear, We need to transcend this fear and use forgiveness to overcome these difficulties. Individuals = power

Thank you for the video!

I don't know the best way to legalize, but I urge people to register to vote and use that power. I've never voted myself. This has been this first time I feel I have a reason to vote.

I'm twenty. I hope more younger people feel the same way. I'll probably ask around.
