Global Cannabis March This Saturday
 |
The march takes place in over 200 cities worldwide; the Philly march starts at Broad and South; meet at around 4, march at 4:20. The speakers include Sonnet Gabbard of Americans for Safe Access (a medical marijuana group), Amber Langston of Students for Sensible Drug Policy and Fraser Frazier of PhillyNORML and Freshgrocer. And check out the sweet t-shirt (pictured).
I know what you're thinking: Only Lil Stoner could think he could be in two places at once. Well, whatever, I'll be a little late after I get eliminated from the RPS tournament and I'm done refereeing. Hell, with how I play I'll probably end up done early.
Update: Meanwhile, a report from Brazil says a court has banned the Global Cannabis March. There are people in America who'd like to do this, too, actually.

This takes place worldwide during the first weekend of May, every year. I'd be delighted to hold it on the 20th if the main organizer would be inclined to change the date. I think the main reason why they're on different days is because April 20 is a day to get stoned and celebrate culture, whereas the March is much more political in nature.
