Wanted: Cannabis Journalists
How would a dispute be resolved?

Wanted: Cannabis Journalists
Need some quality pieces for Lb and internet publication. Show me what you got.

I'm a new member who enjoys writing and has plenty of opinions to voice on the UK's suffocating cannabis laws and how (hopefully) things are beginning to change. I'd be happy to put an article together for free when I have a bit of time.

Still looking? I've done a bunch of writing for a couple of Dutch flower growers - RQS and Zamnesia. Let me know.

I too am between jobs after being made redundant 2 weeks before lockdown! I don’t claim to be the best writer but I always give an honest account and review of all the products I buy on here, take a peek 8)

Piece of piss, just use a different identity for the article then use your big peeps account on Twitter, Insta or wherever to link to it.

the growth of cannabis journalism and media will be immense in the oncoming years within the uk
this post is very interesting
this post is very interesting

Hey there, I'm currently bvetween jobs. I can write reviews. I order what ever products are able to be sent here to Australia and beg for more. Let me know whats involve, i'm a keen bean :)

If you stil interested in writers I'm interested and have experience writing about substance misuse/use.
Drop me a line if you're interested and we'll discuss it.
Drop me a line if you're interested and we'll discuss it.

Please hit up the toddster if you are a canna writer with a place to post. And be prepared for mad ritches.

I'm game, I'd love to know more if a PM is possible? I don't have much to offer in the way of selling myself, besides these wee lyrical fingertips of mine.

Pretty interested in hearing about this bud. I like to consider somewhat of an expert on cannabis but also still a student ;). I've published my fair share of blogs over the past few years around this as well as understand how to properly review a strain.
All the best! UKCF x

There are moments when emeralds are not the only green gems we like to read about. Sometimes RB's disco biscuit can get even the most hardened of tolerances seeing stars. MJ's edibles bake US. Little Biggy is a little gem where we can all get medicated, motivated and elevated. But if you want gems, you have to have diamonds. I'll smash over a review shortly :)

Can someone tell me why Americans think guns are the definition of freedom?
I wish the Bill of Rights was viewed as a bible around here.

Can someone tell me why Americans think guns are the definition of freedom?
Americans are happy to devote decades of their lives to supporting an overseas war machine as they gobble up jingoistic bullshit in their media.
They are taxed and regulated as mush as socialist countries but get little benefits in return, all the while being spied on to a standard that would make the Gestapo proud.
They are fine with all of this damage to their liberty as long as they keep their guns, is this just some kind of penis fixation?

I don't expect many to understand, and it's not something you can relate to unless you've walked a similar path,but... during my traveling work days, I experienced more than once the need to carry a firearm.
permitted to carry concealed, allowed me the chance to go back home and see my family again.
you are entitled free speech and your freedom of views, just remember, the crime or bad folks don't follow ANY rules and could care less about your politics. take away the good man's right to protect himself, and become their next target, as security is just a word.
(understand that police have NO obigation to protect you or your family, they strictly uphold the law...)

You make a fine point but the statistics don’t lie. A developed country shouldn’t be 4th on a list with these others.
Top 10 Countries with the Highest Murder Rates (per 100k people) in 2017:*
El Salvador (61.7)
Honduras (41.0)
Venezuela (49.9)
United States Virgin Islands (49.3 [2012 data])
Jamaica (56.4)
Lesotho (43.6 [[2016 data]] per 100k people)

no biggz, that's the virgin islands, an unincorporated territory of a few hundred meters.

USA are #64 in World rankings for intentional homicides/100k people

Because freedom is only delivered through the end of a gun (unfortunately)
And if you don’t have a gun someone with a gun will take your freedom away
The only part of history you can guarantee is true freedom comes at the end of a sword/gun

i don't think the american colonies outgunned england and i'm sure that's not how it went down in india or in the 1990s in eastern europe.
freedom is obtained through will and persistence like a lot of things around this earth.

This is it, no tyrannical regime, dictator, kings or queens taking the piss were ever overthrown through mediation and peaceful actions, fire meets fire literally.

I'll go with the penis fixation. I don't own a gun - don't want one - guns are for killing. It's the second amendment in the American Bible, er, "Bill of Rights". Funny thing is that the pro-life people are usually pro-gun. Just doesn't make sense.

Guns do not kill... the person using it KILLS... I use them to kill clay pigeons. and just imagine it's someone i hate. lol ;)

I am not black but I am a 6'5' 300+ pound white mail. when I get out of my car I have yet seen my public servent have his on his gun when he see's me. I have never been shot , but I have been scared you never know when They might get scared and shoot. I am always as helpful and curtice I can makke cause I want to live and pissing of armed cops is not a healthy way to live. When they start treating you like shit , remember it will you a lot more then it will him.

Not saying you're fat but it's interesting that fat white dudes are credible rappers and also eyed by the police like black dudes.

They didn’t. Our rights are God given and they are inalienable. The Bill of Rights protects them, or at least that’s how it’s supposed to work.

I’m not trying to start something here but I really want to understand how these rights are God given. Can you explain?

That’s ok. We are born free and we are born with certain God given rights, which are inalienable. This is just the way it is, like having a right to clean drinking water. We have the right to protect ourselves and our property. In the UK we still have the right to bear arms, but it has been hidden from us using legislation and obfuscation. Most people don’t understand that they are supposed to be free, so they put up with buffoons and paedo Freemasons dictating what they can and can’t do. This is one of the reasons why we pay income tax, which is unlawful but not illegal. The law is simple: No loss, no harm, no injury, no fraud.

Thanks for the response Camber I appreciate it but I’m still struggling with the God given bit. It’s not as if Moses came down from the mountain with a commandment saying Americans can have AR15s. I don’t mean to sound flippant I just don’t understand it

That’s ok, you’re not coming across as flippant.
“God given” is simply a term. It applies to atheists as well. Try to understand what it means to be born a free man. Eg: Monetisation of another man’s labour, without his consent, is slavery and it is unlawful. So why do we pay income tax? Did you consent to this?
The Founding Fathers were Christians, hence ‘God given’ Replace ‘God given’ with ‘pre-existing’

It was a rural place and hunting was very common. If you start from that perspective and then think of the government coming in and taking the guns away you start to understand.

Not being American but my take on it is simply history, god made men Samuel Colt made all men equal… You can hunt so can provide for yourself and your family, you can defend yourself and your family from threats, and I guess Homer said it best with ‘If You Don't Have A Gun, The King Of England Can Just Walk In Here And Shove You Around’ And for Americans it was true, it’s the reason they were free, the gun. I think the vast majority of people would agree if there were NO guns then the world would be a better place, BUT if bad guys, police, army have guns and you don’t then you’re simply powerless to anyones will. So if they have guns yeah I also want a gun.

I could be wrong but I’m sure the law to carry guns came into action as to kill Indians as white man was expanding in America.?

It might be useful to differentiate the American people and American foreign policy. It seems you have conflated the two, whereas looking at the American people and domestic policy might yield better results. Guns are completely illegal in China and as we all know, China is one of the most liberated places to live on the planet! The second amendment in the US was created to provide a constitutional check on congressional power was as an auxiliary right, supporting the natural rights of self-defense and resistance to oppression. My family live in the USA and right now, gun ownership is anything from a penis fixation, it's security and peace of mind. I would rather get shot than stabbed any day of the week. Knife crime is equally as concerning in my book.

I'm hoping that you picked up the sarcasm in my 'China is liberated' comment. Reading it back, it doesn't come across too clearly.

hear ya my friend. thought i was doing the same ;) with your comment. i read it both ways (with/without sarcasm) I wouldn't criticise either. just own my private thoughts lol. stay as safe as this "Pandemic" will let you. Gaz

The right to bear arms is to shoot the British, not the Indians. The theory is if everyone has guns, the government can't be oppressive and tyrannical. In practice, however, you just end up with gut-shot schoolkids. Guns are fun though tbf

What do you mean? Guns don’t have rights.
Do you mean give men the right to bare women? Not sure that would work.
Or do you mean give men the right to cock and load women?

They need their guns lots of wild animals running about on two legs out their nuts on prescription drugs with guns.

Man you would think we would be over all this crap by now smh

It’s a national identity! They feel they wouldn’t be Americans without the ability to kill somebody instantly.

1. The Wild West is recent history in a young nation and was really really wild. Ditto the Civil War.
2. Hollywood is real. The good guy always shoots the bad guy. (With armed private citizens this is hardly ever the outcome, but who cares about reality?)
3. A lot of yanks are cunts?

The Rise of Nazism Looks a Lot Like Now
The author looks at ordinary people's lives as Hitler shocked the country into submission as he fought the "lügenpresse" - lying media.

Yes this is an important thing to understand. People are interested in their own lives and a crazy ruler is just a form of entertainment in most people's lives. If they are effective with delivering quick economic results then they are good entertainers and are delivering some positives then fine - so why think more about this? It's demeaning to even take a fascist seriously so why bother doing so? In Germany we know why.


It is worrying that the far right parties are gaining to much support in Europe, and we should never take our eye off the ball and learn from history what can happen when you do...

Sadly we going to be finding out very soon that the majority of Americans want a semi-Fascist state the same with the uk population too


ring really reminds me of the gestapo, they rolled almost exclusively through ordinary informants. people with fucked up biases are having their day.


why do they keep designing things to look like hal? doesnt anyone remember how the movie ends?

Germany became increasingly polarized with people espousing Marxism on one side and Law and Order on the other. This is exactly how it feels in America now.

Why the dystopian views are always referred to Nazism and not to Communism? They are basically the same shit, and Communism looks much more dangerous to me, because it "succeeded" for many more years, in many more countries, and for some reason has that glamorous look to so many idiots...

AND JUST LIKE IN NAZI GERMANY YOU HAVE PEOPLE BEING APOLOGISTS BECAUSE OF "COMMUNISM". AT LEAST IT WAS ACTUALLY FUCKING COMMUNISM BACK THEN AND NOT JUST WHATEVER IS NOT ON THE RIGHT

Watching the Plot Against America on Sky and it’s easy to see how Facism takes hold. Not dissimilar to Trump’s America.

In times of economic and political strife extremists always rise, whether left or right wing...it doesn't matter, they are reactionary's. For example the liberal left intend destruction of things about history that upset them much in the same way Nazi's in Germany burned books. People need to learn from History and rarely do, the same mistakes are repeated and things somehow trundle on. 'Good times bring weak people', 'Weak people bring bad times', 'Bad times bring strong people' & 'Strong people bring good times'. The great circle of human history.

I thought it was the republicans (ie the right) in America banning certain aspects of history they don’t like.
Who are the liberal left?
Edit
I’m not trying to start an argument I’m trying to understand

lol it's different in different countries. A conservative in the US is different from a conservative in the UK.
As an example the BLM movement (btw I support equal rights for all races, genders etc.) have tried to expunge slavery and that part of history. Taking down statues of former slaveholders and so on won't change anything, we must remember these things happened so that they don't happen again.
Because of slow or no change for certain groups there is an attempt to accelerate that change from an evolution to a revolution. People will only be backed into a corner for so long whatever their political inclinations. Some people think they're pushing for positive change but real change is when we've learned the lesson.

Thanks for the response mate.
I still don’t get the tearing down statues of slave owners equates to trying to erase the history. Statues aren’t history they glorify the subjects for posterity.
Is it still a massive issue over there around the teaching of CRT?

Well the statues are an example. They are subjects for posterity but they also memorialise history and certain points in history. As such they connect themselves to that history.
I basically agree with you though, they aren't the history themselves and so it shouldn't matter. It's what they represent that makes the difference.
I feel that whether right or left wing, people have an agenda and push that. Both different sides of the same coin I'd say.
Also CRT?

I see statues as a way to venerate the individual and what they stand for. Cultures generally don’t put up statues of twats. So the slavers statues should all come down imo.

Yeah np, I don't mind a bit of debate.
Again I do agree with the first part of what you said. Statues certainly venerate people, but also events. However cultures not putting up statues of 'twats'...well...that's a matter of perspective.
There are many examples of people that put up statues of people who are considered great or influential in their time and place. Those same people and statues are considered later, or by another group to be somehow offensive or detestable.
I'm not gona say that something like slavery in the U.S. wasn't a terrible thing, it defo was. I do think that removing something that is generally offensive to the majority should be considered. It's just that we also need to learn from these things and replace them with something that educates people about the history surrounding them so as to understand the bigger picture.
But yeah CRT, I am familiar with it...bit of a deep and complicated topic. But to answer your original question about that, yes I believe it is still something of a hot topic within education in the UK. I believe the Tories here (conservatives) said they felt CRT was biased, in other words trying to ram anti-racism down kids throats without opposing viewpoints.
This is a quote from the Equalities Minister, "Any school which teaches these elements of critical race theory, or which promotes partisan political views such as defunding the police without offering a balanced treatment of opposing views, is breaking the law".
So yeah interesting, jeez this turned into an essay XD

Thanks man I do appreciate your time and input.
It’s good to hear it from someone on the ground so to speak we just get fed what the media want us to hear
I do find CRT and the defund the police movements different. One is a collection of scholars etc critically evaluating how society has impacted people of all races and the defund the police is a social movement in response to innocent black people getting killed by police
Have I got that right?

Ronald Reagan's Prophecy

Ronald Reagan's Prophecy


"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

Too bad he infringed on so many freedoms by turning police into bandits that keep what they "sieze"

The old man was not corrupt. At the time of his election privatization was a huge meme and was working well across the world for turning state owned industries into real businesses with better prices and service. Reagan thought economic incentive was the key to performance and any privatization was good.

So he was stupid and needs a break, cool why isn't that a defense for lesser crimes then? Because that don't pay.


And now a new generation is fighting for freedom from a militarized police force that Reagan enabled.

Absolutely true, the vast majority of people spend their entire lives arguing, debating and fighting over bullshit like "left vs right" and they are so caught up in it that they can't see that they aren't fighting any real issues whatsoever, just distracting themselves from the actual underlying problems!
we as a species have no enemies, the government and media are creating problems for people to divide over, because with this constant divide we will never be united enough to bring on a revolution.

America 2024 - What Would 8 years of Trump Reap?
You are not alone, a *sitting supreme court justice* said the same thing!
Bankruptcy if history is any precedent

Well, bankruptcy is how the Federal Reserve, a private bank, gained control over the US government in the first place.

4 fucking times? That's not playing the game that's playing everyone you can - which is exactly what he's doing by running for President.

Trump University was another fuck you to anyone that believes in him.

It shouldn't be a game! It should be a second chance. When it becomes a game, it's time to change the laws.

Fascism according to the New Yorker

He'll just be a puppet for some real money interests, like all US presidents of the last 20 odd years. 2 party system is laughable.

It goes back much farther than 20 years... at least 100, or more.
The 2 party system is the biggest joke of all. There is a glimmer of hope...proportional representation. It is not widely used in the US, but is more common in Europe, and other countries. That's why you may see news about a country having problems forming a workable government after an election, because the parties are forced to work with whomever the people elect. As opposed to our 2 party system where we are forced to choose between the 'lesser of two evils'!
This group has been working to promote it in the US, and give good examples, and information.

It seems like proportional representation would give people a voice. Otherwise outrage is the only way to garner attention.

He stated he wants a strong elite Military so if the start goose stepping I'm going to have to run like and hell out a here

Say what you like but where can you find more freedom than the U.S.?
Things are getting better, prison populations in the US peaked in 2008,
0
Not just number its the percent of people living in jail and its not only Number 1, it's 5x that of nearly any country and more than 2x the number 2 prison mill, Russia.

Things are not getting better, they are getting worse because the prison industry is embedded into the state.
“if all drug cases were eliminated, the US imprisonment rate would still have quadrupled over the past thirty-five years.”"
“if all drug cases were eliminated, the US imprisonment rate would still have quadrupled over the past thirty-five years.”"


How free is a country where 1/3 of the population is considered by its government to be criminals?

At some point any maybe we are there now it's like the lack of a criminal record says something about a person

i get what all of you are saying but it's important to remember society is more than government/media/corporotracy. the freedom of america has always been how people treat each other and especially don't judge each other. america is still the most diverse society and people are supportive of you doing whatever you want to. try that in your old country or your parents old country etc. it's always a place that has felt less free than the the us.
