American history, as it was taught to us, is a watered down, sanitized, fictional account, created by government-run schools. American history is not a bunch of old men, sitting around and having intellectual discussions. It's about young, long haired, radical patriots smuggling contraband, staging raids against their oppressors, bravely fighting for their liberty, and proclaiming across the land, "Don't Tread on Me." The founders of this country were not the sort of nerds and geeks you find today in the Republican and Democratic parties. They were more like the courageous heroes you'll find in Greenpeace. Our Founding Fathers were men of ideals, who were not afraid to fight to win their freedom. Like the brave Rainbow Warriors of Greenpeace, they did not hesitate to risk their necks to dramatize an important issue.
The Boston Tea Party is a great example of how our forefathers stood up to tyranny with tactics like those of Greenpeace.
If the Founding Fathers were alive today, they would never stand for the War on Drugs. Thomas Jefferson would immediately convene a war crimes commission to investigate and punish those responsible for the jailing of more than 600,000 Americans. Ben Franklin would be building homemade Patriot missiles. George Washington and his men would be using those Patriot missiles to blow DEA choppers out of the sky. Sam Adams would be preaching revolution on college campuses. Ethan Allen would be burning U.S. Customs boats. Thomas Paine would be writing books like this, and Paul Revere would ride up and down the Northern California coast, warning marijuana growers that, 'The Feds are coming, the Feds are coming!"
An exaggeration? Not at all; the men who founded this country believed that marijuana, which they called hemp, was critical to America. In Colonial America it was a crime NOT to grow hemp. Jamestown Colony, Virginia, ordered all farmers to grow hemp and later jailed those who didn't comply.(34) Hemp was valued for its fiber, and its medicinal properties. Hemp allowed America to have its own colonial press, without having to beg for paper from England.
Our great revolutionary documents such as Common Sense, The Federalist Papers, The Declaration of Independence, and The Constitution were all printed on paper made from hemp. Science fiction writer and Ph.D. Robert Anton Wilson has suggested that because George Washington smoked pot, he was able to formulate non-linear military strategies that often surprised and bewildered the British Redcoats.(35) Our American flag and even blue jeans were originally made from hemp. Marijuana, it turns out, is as American as apple pie. Nobody in your government-run school ever taught you these historical facts, did they?

I was having a conversation with a friend of mine in msn if more and more would stand up and do these kinda things. Reminded me of this post from yrs back. (above)^ Lol it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling remembering the protest days an activism of the 60's. I was a flower child.
Ihope he follows thru with it. Maybe others will follow suit.
Anyhow I ask him did he mind if I posted our conversation, he said ok.
