NJWeedman’s Passing the Joint: My bucket list: Harry J. Anslinger—check

Ed Forchion also known as NJ Weedman takes a drag at a Legalize Marijuana March in Trenton on Saturday, Oct 18, 2014. Several hundred people gathered to talk about legalizing marijuana and then at 4:20 p.m. walked across the street from the New Jersey Statehouse to the War Memorial.

Do you have a bucket list? My altered ego, “NJWEEDMAN,” has a huge list. Topping his list for years has been taking a THC-positive pee on “just say no” Nancy & Ronald Reagan’s graves. Checking this off has been held up by Nancy’s continued life. Sure, NJWeedman admits that may be distasteful on many levels, but these drug war criminals deserve it. They ramped up President Nixon’s racist drug war, putting millions behind bars—especially brown people—and making America the greatest police state on the planet—largely for a plant. America now imprisons more of its citizens than any other nation in the world by far, holding 25% of the world’s prisoners while having only 5% of the world’s population.
All the while, these tyrants were talking out of both sides of their vile mouths: Ronald and Colonel North imported tons of cocaine into America, creating the cocaine cartels’ U.S. infrastructure with CIA assets and setting up dozens of black/brown businessmen like “FREEWAY RICKY ROSS” to sell their product. They made coke kingpins, they created the Nino Browns of every ghetto in America. The Reagans created the “crack cocaine epidemic” that ruined plenty of my friends in the late ’80s. Nancy has been at the top of my death pool (a game where you guess when someone will die) every year for the last eight years, but unfortunately it hasn’t happened yet.
So NJWeedman dug further back into the history of prohibition and found an interim alternative: Harry Anslinger.
He was America’s first drug czar, and from 1930 to 1962 he reigned supreme as the commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics (FBN), the predecessor of today’s Drug Enforcement Agency. Then for two years he was the U.S. Representative to the United Nations Narcotics Commission; consequently he was in a position to force the rest of the world to adopt his insane dislike for cannabis, and he incorporated cannabis prohibition into the UN drug treaty called the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of 1961. His legacy still dominates U.S. drug policy and the responsibilities once held by Anslinger are now largely under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Office of National Drug Control Policy.
Anslinger is credited with siring our nation’s pot prohibition by entering into an industrial conspiracy with publisher William Randolph Hearst and the DuPont corporation to outlaw hemp and with it cannabis, to keep hemp from competing with Hearst’s timber interests and DuPont’s new synthetic petroleum-based nylon products. This successful conspiracy is why I and millions of others have been ruined…for a plant. Fuq him!
His uncle Andrew Mellon, who was Secretary of the Treasury at the time, appointed Anslinger commissioner of the fledgling FBN.
Anglinger’s part in the plot was to reduce the size of the hemp industry. With the invention of the decorticator, a machine that could shuck hemp like the cotton gin did for cotton, hemp became a cheap alternative to the paper pulp used in the newspaper industry at the time. Hearst felt this was a threat to his extensive timber holdings. Mellon, at that time the wealthiest man in America, had invested heavily in DuPont family’s new synthetic fiber, nylon, which was in direct competition with hemp. The DuPonts wanted to destroy the hemp industry to protect their chemical empire.
Anslinger used racism to bamboozle Congress into pushing cannabis prohibition through. He and Hearst scared the American people with bogus stories in Hearst’s papers. He told big white lies that still destroy brown lives. He demonized Mexicans, claiming cannabis hemp was a new drug called “marihuana” that Mexican immigrants were bringing to American white kids. His racism is why still today BROWN people are eight times more likely to be arrested for cannabis than whites, who use it in similar numbers.
To knowledgeable potheads: Harry Anslinger is our boogieman, our Willie Lynch, and our Adolph Hitler. He is the evil racist hooded grandfather of America’s witch-hunt for weed smokers! Harry Anslinger created the first federal marijuana law: the Marijuana Taxation Act of 1937. He is the architect of the Reefer Madness-type movies that (R) NJ State Assemblywomen Mary Pat Angelini and (R) Governor Chris Christie still believe in! He is responsible for ruining millions of lives with the STOOOPID plant laws he created—laws that did so much more harm to people than the plant itself ever could. I openly say only idiots still believe these lies; Anslinger also claimed “marihuana smoking by white women makes them want to seek sexual relations with Negroes.” (Well, maybe they weren’t all lies…)
This past weekend I took a road trip in the Weedmobil to Harry Anslinger’s grave (checking him off the bucket list) with the on-air hosts of www.fullybakedradio.com Wayne “Kannabisking” Burrini and Lefty Grimes as well as Jeremy Santos and Sara Sensimilla. We smoked and left a Phatt joint as part of NJWeedman’s BUDHUNT campaign (SEE: http://tinyurl.com/PA-budhunt ). Fully Baked Radio is an Internet show based out of Hamilton, NJ, that I appear on every Monday from 1-3 p.m. Anslinger is buried next to his wife in the Presbyterian Cemetery of Hollidaysburg, PA, about 40 miles south of Penn State University.
Here are some of his more famous quotes: Most marijuana smokers are Negroes, Hispanics, jazz musicians, and entertainers. Their satanic music, jazz and swing, results from marijuana usage, and marijuana smoking by white women makes them want to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers, and others.
• ...the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races.
• Marijuana causes insanity, criminality, and death.
• Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind.
• Marihuana leads to pacifism and communist brainwashing.
• Reefer makes darkies think they’re as good as white men.
Needless to say, Harry Anslinger’s gravestone already reeked of urine and Wayne was quick to rinse it off with his own THC-positive pee. When Wayne was asked what he would say to people who might bitch about his method of paying his respects, he replied:
“If people don’t get the humor of why I urinated on his grave, maybe because the toll this ignorant war on marijuana has taken on people, myself included, thanks to Anslinger…hey, where the (beep) were they? (Beep) them, because they didn’t pay the fines I had to, they didn’t do my years of probation, they didn’t drive my a$$ around when my license was taken away, they didn’t do my jail time, they didn’t repair my mom’s broken heart because I was always being arrested for weed, they didn’t give me that job because of my felony for a f****n’ plant. So if they can’t find any humor in this stroke, truth be told: (beep) ’em if they can’t take a joke.”
I agreed, and I offered my opinion that (R) NJ State Assemblyperson Mary Pat Angelini deserves a comparable tribute. Or maybe she should just smoke a joint and listen to some jazz with a certain pot-smoking Blackman who writes columns for The Trentonian.
