About me:

Welcome to the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws: Joplin, MO Chapter myspace


MISSION STATEMENT:

Joplin NORML's mission is to move public opinion sufficiently to achieve the repeal of marijuana prohibition so that the responsible use of cannabis by adults is no longer subject to penalty.

Our chapter goals are to educate the public about the failed policy of marijuana prohibition and work to that ends by passing local initiatives decriminalizing marijuana in Missouri that would eventually lead to a statewide initiative/legislative action to decriminalize marijuana for all Missourians.

ABOUT NORML:

NORML supports the removal of all criminal penalties for the private possession and responsible use of marijuana by adults, including the cultivation for personal use, and the casual nonprofit transfers of small amounts. This model, similar to that recommended to Congress by President Nixon's esteemed Shafer Commission in 1972, is called "decriminalization."

NORML additionally supports the development of a legally controlled market for marijuana, where consumers could purchase it from a safe, legal and regulated source. This model is referred to as "legalization."

NORML believes that marijuana smoking is not for kids and should only be used responsibly by adults. As with alcohol consumption, it must never be an excuse for misconduct or other bad behavior. Driving or operating heavy equipment while impaired from marijuana should be prohibited.

NORML strongly supports the right of patients to use marijuana as a medicine when their physician recommends it to relieve pain and suffering. NORML has advocated for the legal use of medicinal marijuana since 1972.

Lastly, NORML supports the right of farmers to commercially cultivate the non-psychoactive strain of cannabis known as hemp for industrial purposes, such as food and fiber production.

    Respect staff @ Joplin NORML, continued success with your quest to spread knowledge about the medicine to the masses. When you get a chance you should come back to my page and checkout the song on my music player I produced dedicated to the herb called "Lytro" by music artist NP The Truth feat. Luv Fyah, Bagett.

    Bless, SoloFlexx
