Hi everyone, little to no progress on Medicinal Cannabis legalisation, and personally cant see much happening within the next 5 years. Tony Bower, long-time advocate for in excess of 10 years has once again been arrested and jailed.???? For what. Apparently its becoming a crime in Australia to be compassionate. Please support Tony in helping raise money for his legal expenses. Details in this newsletter…. Sadly the Face Book cannabis community has imploded even further into the depths of despair, with even our once heroes of the cause, now turning against their long time supporters, with nastiness, lies and narcissism. To what end I am at a loss to know why, but doing irreparable harm to the cause. Hence as you all know, I have stepped right away from Face Book and from those people I once respected, and have unjoined 99% of the cannabis community groups. Until they all grow up and start working together for the common cause then I want nothing to do with them. This of course is an extremely sad situation. Little Green Trailer and Medicinal Cannabis & Hemp Tasmania will continue their work of education without the toxicity of social media. The cries for help from sick and suffering grows on a daily basis. The cries are very loud, yet our Governments still refuse to listen to the people they are supposed to represent. We will never give up, we will not be defeated by greed, egos and narcissists. Our “herb” was freely given to us by nature, man had absolutely no right to impose his laws on nature. We live in a sad world where our rights are slowly being eroded by Governments. Enjoy the read.
