The decriminalize nature movement that was successful in Oakland is growing. I don't know much about them, but they seem like a "grassroots" (pun intended) organization that works with local city council officials. I could be wrong (will update as needed), buy this is how I understand the process: - They have packets with information to give to any city council for review. Local citizens can bring these packets to the attention of their representatives. The information speaks for itself (like McKenna said, the truth is robust once you find it). - After that, the city council cam vote on a resolution to make natural plants the lowest priority for law enforcement. A worded resolution template is already provided so work is mimimal. This does not change the law, but it directs law enforcement on where they should focus, which in practice is very important. For example there are places in the US where oral sex is forbidden by older local laws, and instead of going through the process of changing the law, the police simply choose to not prioritize enforcement. The idea is to leave local citizens that grow their own plants and are not selling alone. This is tremendous progress for personal liberty amd access to nature. This also alows the police to heal it's relationship with the community since they are no longer forced to criminalize people over plants that are important to many people. Police resources can be redirected to crimes such as theft, rape, etc. Below is a good place to get started. If you are a local citizen, you should be able to bring this information and process to your local city council  Don't miss the map with updates on over 100 cities  https://decriminalizenature.org/

Awesome posts Loveall Holding it down in the SE fam  "Think more than you speak"
"How do you get rid of the pain of having pain in the first place? You get rid of expectations"
"You are everything that is. Open yourself to the love and understanding that is available."
"To see God, you have to have met the Devil."
"When you know how to listen, everyone becomes a guru."
" One time, I didn't do anything, and it was so empty... Almost as if I wasn't doing anything. Then I wrote about it. It was fulfilling."

We get a little closer every day... people like us are the spearhead of these movements. I’m a member of norml and every other day I receive emails informing me on our progress.

Anyways.. great post and keep up the hard work guys. Together we’ll make a difference This guys ego ^

One thing the growing Decriminalize Nature movement endorses are the concepts of Grow, Gather, GiftThe first two are straight forward. The third concept ( Gift) is much more controversial. To be clear for the personal safety of anyone living in a country that is still violently oppressive against nature, gifting is risky. But what if one wants to take on the risk and Gift? Motivations could be varied. For example, scientists have both (1) called for civil disobedience to help address the global threat from climate change because governments are not being responsible/responsive, and (2) called for decriminalization of psychedelics as they (2a) Fall in the schedule IV drug category scientifically, and (2b) improve a feeling of connection to nature which could be important for our species to react to climate change in a way that improves our chances of long term sustainable survival. Interested in any opinions in Gifting. In my case I avoid preaching or pushing anything on others. If a close friend has an interest, things change. Thanks.

City of Berkeley—Decriminalize Nature Addresses the Berkeley City Council (9/10/2019) “Agenda item: 54. Decriminalizing Entheogenic Plants (Reviewed by the Public Safety Committee) From: Councilmembers Robinson and Davila Recommendation: Refer to the Community Health Commission for feedback regarding the adoption of a Resolution **decriminalizing Entheogenic Plants and Fungi** such as mushrooms, cacti, iboga containing plants, and/or extracted combinations of plants similar to Ayahuasca; and limited to those containing the following types of compounds: **indole amines**, tryptamines, phenethylamines, by restricting any city funds or resources to assist in the enforcement of laws imposing criminal penalties for the use and possession of Entheogenic Plants by adults age 21 and over.” http://cityofberkeley.in..._Entheogenic_Plants.aspxSpellbreaking is the better part of alchemy, extraction, and the art of undoing—but a cocksure kind of lovingkindness, a clockwork clock, works time. Nakhig lo shulun, Sharuku! Gorz nash!

South East is represented in the current movement map. Anyone can bring this up to their city council. Loosely the recommended steps are: Anyone of us can get this going locally or join anything already happening. Plenty of info on how to engage local city council and get momentum going in your town along with ~monthly meetings online to discuss progress and share tips/trouble shooting.

Congratulations! Europe, take note. “There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'. The field acts on the observer and puts him in a privileged position vis-à-vis the universe. From this position he has access to the realities which are ordinarily hidden from us by time and space, matter and energy. This is what we call the Great Work." ― Jacques Bergier, quoting Fulcanelli

Good progress for liberty in Colorado Springs. The testimonials at the recent city council presentation are riveting. The last guy is a sad reminder of the dysfunctional ignorance and fear that still exist in society (it has been established that teen marijuana use is down in Colorado because of education programs).
