Know More About The 420 Holiday
Well, today is finally April 20th and it is the most important day for all those involved in the cannabis culture. Today, people are celebrating 420 in many different ways, but the best part about this day, is that people are now celebrating openly in many places of the world and that we are closer to the legalization of marijuana, which is certainly something that we need everywhere.For those of you who might not know what 420 is or how it got started, this was a code that some students invented during the 1970's in San Rafael, California.This group of students was called "The Waldos", because they would always gather near a wall in the back part of the school and they would use their time together to smoke marijuana. "The Waldos" would usually go to their gathering spot at exactly 4:20, as they would get out of school around four and this is why today is "International Marijuana Day".Since then, there have been many changes to marijuana laws and most people's ideas about this herb, have also changed dramatically. According to CNN, 2011 was one of the years with more marijuana related arrests in history. There were at least 750000 people arrested for either being in possession of marijuana or selling some of this herb and this has also brought some huge financial costs. More than one trillion dollars have been spent in trying to prohibit marijuana from the public and the ideas that President Nixon had back in 1971, have certainly not been the best for the US and the whole world. Prohibition Has Failed And Today We Celebrate 420 Around The World
Today, we can see how some people are celebrating the legalization of marijuana, as states like Colorado and Washington are having some fabulous cannabis related events and the herb is being smoked everywhere. Some places, where marijuana is still not legalized, but that certainly appears to be so, like California and Oregon, are also having some great events today and people are going to be seen smoking the herb in public, without the authorities giving it much importance at all. People in many places of the world, will get to know more about this herb today, as the 420 events usually have spokespeople and other people who show their pride for marijuana. While some people may not be able to smoke marijuana in public and celebrate today, there are certainly many who will also be having parties in the privacy of their homes and who will be celebrating big time as well. If you are a member of the cannabis culture, then you need to be celebrating today. It does not matter whether you do it in public, whether you do it in a big private party or if you do it on your own in the comfort of your home. Today is 420 and we need to get out there and let people know that marijuana is not nearly as harmful as Nixon once said and that prohibitions simply do not work. We have had these before and we know how they end. The legalization of cannabis is really getting closer and we will promote it, until it comes!Please remember to share and like this article and to subscribe to our mailing, by leaving us your email in the box to the right.
