Together with over 300 cities from around the world, Legalise Cannabis Ireland are proud to announce that the fourth annual Legalise Cannabis Day is to take place in both Dublin and Cork this Saturday the 8th of May. Through experience in this anonymous subculture we have repeatedly found that the vast majority of cannabis users in Ireland can consume cannabis responsibly. These are typically decent and similarly unharmful people who should be able to consume cannabis without being criminalised or having fear of oppression for doing so. Due to the nature of prohibition, our culture is largely unfarmiliar in the general public's eye. Despite this, we will march in protest of the criminalisation of cannabis users and we call for full utilisation of the cannabis plant for its medical, industrial, recreational and agricultural values. read full story / add a comment |
