asbo420 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Anyone going to this, was told about this through a friend who uses facebook, looks interesting.Arranged by Birmingham cannabis club and will be held at Cannon Hill Park saturday 31st august 1pm onwards. As the Cannabis normalisation movement continues to gather momentum around the UK and Ireland, the chance has come for the people of Birmingham to stand up for their rights to medicate safely and consume responsibly. On the 31st of August 2013 Cannabis social clubs from Birmingham and the West Midlands are organising an afternoon of entertainment in Cannon Hill Park, Birmingham. Amongst the festivities there will be some chilled beats, merchandise give-aways, free information and guest speakers. The aim of the event is to increase public awareness about the safe use of cannabis, as well as to teach people about some of the proven medicinal benefits that come with consuming it. “Many people with a diverse set of medical conditions could be improving their quality of life but may not know yet, or even be opposed to Cannabis because of misinformation spread in the media. This is our chance set the record straight, and to stand up for our rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimweeder Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 i doubt il go but would like to. its odd tho for some reason uk events never get much turn out. nobody ever goes or seems to care when they are on. whereas you go across to the states an often when someone organises a smoke up in a park the park is full of tokers protesting etc. uk events never seem to take off properly which is a shame really. itd be good if lots of people did turn up for this event but for some reason i have my doubts. i suppose its people like me with my attitude thats part of the problem tho. if everyone thinks like me that nobody will turn up its gonna result in nobody turning up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyPage Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 The thing is, how would anyone tell this from any other day ? Has anyone been to Cannon Hill ? Oh, and it's next door to the West Midlands Police athletic club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest grandad Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 whenever I smoke in view of the general public I like them to see smoking cannabis is for everyone regardless of age. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asbo420 Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 I'm in two minds about going, I do know the wilkinson fun fair is on at the park and also a huge sand pit and beach activities for the kids (not related to the smoke out) with all these family activities I've a feeling a smoke out may not be welcomed by police. I shall most likely pass through taking the kids to the funfair and have a gander. Police do tend to frequent the park but its usually looking for doggers up near the allotments, they tend to not take to much notice of the smell of weed burning, they would be very busy if they did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tevion Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 This is what fucks me off "The aim of the event is to increase public awareness about the safe use of cannabis" which implies there's unsafe use. That gives the prohibitionists an in.You don't see the drink or tobacco industry giving talks to consumers on "safe use" etc, why? Because nothing can ever be without risks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
