Reddit Defies Owners And Runs Marijuana Legalization Ads For Free
Joe | Aug 30, 2010 | Comments 3
The news-link site reddit.com has decided to defy an edict from their owners telling them they can’t accept money from the “Just Say Now” cannabis legalization campaign for ads; they will run the ads for free.
This is a serious move on the part of Reddit. I’ve always loved their site, and it’s popularity is unmatched by all but a few domains. An offer has already been made to buy Reddit from their current owners; hopefully it goes through. We must start punishing website owners for being against marijuana legalization. That is our right.
And make sure you use Reddit on a regular basis; not only is it full of great stories (including many of ours), but they have proven themselves true friends of the movement.

Sweeeet… now if only CNN would hop on the wagon… =/
@Peter, sorry but F*** CNN! In fact F*** the entire Oligopoly that is “mainstream” media.
So let’s get ready to vote!
Regiser. Vote. Change things. Share the links.
All the anti-prop-19 arguments boil down to “it’s better to put people in jail than to let ordinary Americans grow a little marijuana in their own back yards.”
The key to success: Register to vote. You’ve got to register well in advance of election day; it only takes five minutes (even if you have to download a form and take it downtown, it’s well worth the effort). All of these links use the usual h t t p : / / w w w prefix:
California:
sos.ca.gov/elections/elections_vr.htm or to vote by mail
sos.ca.gov/elections/elections_m.htm
Vermont
vermont-elections.org/elections1/registertovote.html
South Dakota:
sdsos.gov/electionsvoteregistration/registrationvoting.shtm
Arizona:
Voter info:
azsos.gov/election/VoterInformation.htm
Register: azsos.gov/election/voterregistration.htm
Michigan: michigan.gov/documents/MIVoterRegistration_97046_7.pdf
Oregon: oregonvotes.org/votreg/vreg.htm
Others: Google your state name and “voter registration.”
College students: You can usually register as a citizen of either your hometown or your college residence town. Share the voter registration info through your student newspaper, twitter, etc.
Everybody: Most states allow early voting and/or vote-by-mail, so once your registered, go ahead and request a ballot (at the voter info site for your state). Save a trip to the polls and get it done while you’re thinking about it.
5 minutes. Change the world. Share the links.
