Illinois Bill Criminalizes Marijuana Information on the
Internet

(reprinted from the NORML Weekly News, http://www.norml.org)

April 8, 1999, Springfield, IL:  The state House of
Representatives unanimously approved legislation that would
impose criminal penalties on those who transmit information
pertaining to marijuana on the Internet if they "know that
the information will be used in furtherance of illegal
activity."

NORML Executive Director R. Keith Stroup, Esq. noted, "Under
this measure, someone could legally transmit information
about potentially violent activities like building bombs,
but face criminal prosecution for posting messages about the
documented medical uses of marijuana.  This is an attempt to
circumvent the first amendment guarantee of free speech by
turning the transmission of certain factual information via
the Internet into a 'thought crime.'  Proponents of this
type of legislation are the equivalent of modern day book-
burners."

House Bill 792, introduced by Rep. Gerald Mitchell (R-Rock
Falls), seeks to make the transmission of "information about
cannabis by the Internet" a Class A misdemeanor if the
provider is aware the information could be used for an
illegal activity.  The Senate Judiciary will hold hearings
on the proposal next Wednesday.  The House approved the
measure 114 to zero.

I've heard from ritual abuse and mind control survivors that marijuana is
the one big NO NO, according to the perps.  Why?  I suspect it provides a
catalyst for gasp enlightenment.Can't have any of that.

It also has many other planet-saving properties.  We wouldn't want to do
anything CONSTRUCTIVE, now, would we?

The rest of the useful herbs are next.  The people "need" to use their
money to support the all-knowing pharmaceutical industry -- it's the Virtuous
Capitalistic Way.

Seems to me the path to destruction is accelerating considerably.
