There's a cool progressive map of the U.S. at the bottom of this article showing how the states have moved along with the decriminalization and legalization of marijuana since 1970

What is the Fourth of July?

I appreciate the response dude! Hemp is not a drug though and I'm sure you were just making a joke, but that's exactly why hemp should be made legal. It's mistakenly caught up in the drug war, but can be used for many products. There's a lot of misleading information regarding hemp being used as a drug. Simply stated, it is NOT a drug and should be allowed as an agricultural product

I figured I would get a response like this. I feel your pain, but I'm still gonna keep on, keepin on! Can't let shit get us down ya know!

Yeah, true. But, I do like the flag and statement they are making with it!!!

Right on! Keep your head up and thanks for checkin the thread!

I'll smoke to that! Nicely done CO

Hemp is a commonly used term for varieties of the Cannabis plant and its products. Because of those products the Cannabis plant got banned. Wich ofcourse lead to the banning of the drug.

Here in greater Nippon they also restart to use Hemp,
which they didn't uses for a long Time because of the idiotic Laws!!!


Hemp has an important function in the mythology of Shinto, the "Way of the Gods", as the ancient indigenous religion of Japan is known. Hemp was used to purify, to drive out evil (exorcism). Hemp seeds were used in Shinto marriage ceremonies. In some ceremonies hemp leaves were burnt as an "invitation to the spirits". (Moore) Even today there are shinto ceremonies at major shrines such as Ise Jingu in Mie prefecture and other shrines that involve the burning of taima (marijuana).

The priests' clothes were made from hemp linen and and bell ropes in shrines (see image to the right) were made from hemp too. Hemp for bell ropes is still grown in Nagano prefecture today. Several hemp fields are cultivated on Shikoku (one of the four main islands of Japan) to make ceremonial linen clothes for the Imperial family and for Shinto priests.
