[QUOTE="sagan, post: 68736, member: 6015"] Bog! Yes, they do demonstrate in Sweden, however not that often. It's mostly the yearly GMM - Global Marijuana March. This is an international event, and I think I saw a post about it on this forum too..? We come from two very different cultures - you guys in ex-Jugoslavia have been ruled by communists for a long time, and demonstrations is not so common in a communist regime; of natural reasons. :) Take the 60s for example, the hippie era. Back then everything was very liberal, and you found pot-smoking hippies everwhere in Scandinavia. Demonstrations were quite common, mostly anti-war - not so much about drugs. Then came the 70s, Nixon started his war on drugs and the rest of the western world followed. From this period till the late 90s it was pretty quiet from the legalization movement, but there has always been some active members. They have just not been that well organized. Grass-root activism, if you will. Some people gathered around the Parliament with a poster, smoking joints, for example. These recent years things are starting to change. An earlier heroin-addict in Norway has started an organization called The Organization for a Humane Drug Policy (directly translated), and this man is very dedicated, articulate and intelligent. In the beginning, he wrote more articles/letters to the newspapers than all of the other prohibition-organizations together. A true hero who I know personally. His organization is growing, and soon it is big enough to get financial support from the government (we need 500 paying members). When that happens, things will probably happen in an exponential rate, we hope. Peoples opinion about pot-smokers in Scandinavia is of course mixed, but it is starting to be more accepted. After all, 20-30% of all youths in the age of 18-30 have smoked cannabis. There is also a lot of TV-series with a positive attitude towards pot (Weeds, Entourage, and many many more). If you want to become active, there are many things you can do. An individual can even do a lot on its own, by writing letters to newspapers. Remember, we have all the arguments and facts on OUR side. If you are rational, and base all your writings on facts - no one can really stand up to you - since the prohibition of drugs is mostly based on morals. What I think you should do is of course to get organized, and start a serious organization. Write as many letters to newspapers as you can, and if you dare, participate in TV shows and debate with politicians. If you are an intelligent and articulate person, no politician can beat you in a debate. To arrange a demonstration is quite easy. You print out flyers and posters and put them up everywhere, especially around universities and high schools. Read books about marketing, create a hype about it, inform the media in advance. Gather as much people as possible, and make sure you have all the permits you need from the police. [/QUOTE]
