This used to be in my bio. I think a journal entry makes more sense because though I'm an advocate, I'm not really an activist of the following subject matter. Unless, you think becoming educated about cannabis and sending a few e-mails to government officials is activism. ;)
Cannabis illegalization makes absolutely no sense at all to me. (And no, I’m not a “pothead”. Though I’m open to smoking it, I haven't smoked any for over five years.) Cannabis has a multitude of purposes that are economically, environmentally, and socially more sensible than the myriad of products it could replace. A must read for anyone who agrees or disagrees with me is:

If you dare to take 10 minutes to read this very informative FAQ, perhaps you too will advocate its legalization. It could literally save lives and ultimately, our Mother Earth.
