Enjoyed reading this again this morning. It was a pleasure meeting you on 420 at the Liberty Plaza Rally in downtown Atlanta. I see great things in the future for NORML under your leadership!
I remember you. You were with Connie. Thanks for the words of encouragement, for that, is what they are.
Thank you for fighting for those who can’t or won’t fight for themselves. I look forward to meeting you someday.
Congratulations! You are a breath of fresh air. I would love to have a conversation with you. I live here in West Point. I have self-medicated for years. I have a condition call hypoparathyroidism, this condition has already been approved in Florida but not here in GA.
Wow, your story sounds as if you’ve been reading my mail! I, too, am a retired Peace Officer, and I, too, enjoy the many benefits brought by marijuana. Thank you for taking the lead, I’m glad to be on this team.
Sounds like you and I need to have a conversation. I’ll send an email with some contact information I’m glad you’re here.
I live in Bama but have blood ties to the Atlanta area- what a refreshing attitude to see in you sir! This is a fight all of us who can benefit from cannabis must fight-I am only a regular person with health problems that cannot be addressed that way because of disability help from the govt. I fiercely believe all Americans should have the choice to medicate naturally & not have big pharma shoved down our throats..literally! Carry on with your bad self.. you have our respect & support..
Thank you!! We have some activists in ‘Bama that follow what we do here in GA closely. My intention is to help get a NORML affiliate formed in Alabama. I still have familial ties in The Heart of Dixie. “Carry on with your bad self” … I love it. It’s the ‘Bama in me!
Congratulations Tom! Welcome to the movement in motion. The first demonstration in Atlanta for change was the CAMP SMOKE-IN April 7th, 1978. 28 fabulous citizens and students busted by the APD in the first five minutes. Since then the Smoke-ins turned into ‘The Great Atlanta Pot Festival’ in 1989 after the last Atlanta Smoke-In in Woodruff park during the DNC 1988.1992 brought the Third Annual and the Black Crowes with over 50,000 attendees. 30,000 at the following three year’s event The struggle continues and it has been a long costly war on the cannabis users of the world, Hate to see Sharon go but glad to see someone with practical experience with the powers that be at the Peachtree NORML helm. Good to have a ‘coalition’ of groups around Georgia seeking change. See ya at the next meeting. Paul Cornwell Atlanta CAMP / Natl. Coordinator Coalition for the Abolition of Marijuana Prohibition Since 1978
