| Yeah I think a large part of the crowd just turned up for the chance of scoring, or to be seen, but that's humanity for you. |

| Some of our punters looked a bit shattered ALCP weren't allowing the joint throw this year, they were all told at Cathedral Square. I think all showed up at Latimer Square for the music though, so I assume they had their own. |

I think I heard that guy... I much prefered it to the reggae played later on... But yeah they should've thrown in some other styles that we like to listen to. Maybe even some 'stoner rock'  |

And Tony, when you refer to 'Danny' are you meaning Danny Watson from Newstalk ZB?? |
sorry yes.
He was doing a bit of a hatchet job on J Day but Chris put him right..
Danny made comments like pro cannabis callers could hardly string two words together so actually ended up cutting Chris off because he was making sound sensible comment..
But then Danny finished the topic y saying .. in his words . "why don't you outspoken cannabis smokers just grow and smoke without making an issue of " he could have added like everyone else does...and I think he nearly did...

Danny Watson is a chump. He obviously didn't want anyone to make sensible points about marijuana prohibition. If I had called up saying "yeah bro we jus want to smoke da weed bro!" I'm sure he would have kept me on all day.
Anyways... the DJ playing around 2:30 was Double-O Afro. I think he has a show on Base FM (107.3 in Akld or check out www.basefm.co.nz _________________ "when injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty!" |

bongs Posted: Sun May 20, 2007 2:19 pm |

I had an 20 litre bucket of bongs in the car that i left there. I was so pissed!
next year I'm bringing the whole lot of em to JDay, but we did have the two man one anyway.
Was it just me, or was there heaps of people with no weed?
I swear I want to set up a stall there and sell pounds of it.......  _________________ Hardcore 4 Cannabis since 2004

read stuff, look at images and watch video of other j days / global marijuana marches around the world this year - there's only a few of them all but it's a start.
