Seattle Hempfest Day 3 – The Only Thing We Have to Fear is Fear Itself

I want to dedicate this speech and this post to the hard-working volunteers for the Yes on I-502 campaign who endured boos, catcalls, jeers, taunts, angry shouts, and rude treatment at Seattle Hempfest for, unbelievably, promoting a legalization initiative that has made the ballot, has several high-profile, mainstream supporters from all walks of life, including law enforcement, is polling well, and has a good chance of passing.

Seattle Hempfest Day 1: We can disagree without being disagreeable

This year, Seattle Hempfest is different. Green pot leaf buttons and t-shirts among the freedom fighters have been replaced by more red and blue rivalry than the Electoral College map. Legalization is on the ballot, known as Initiative 502 (I-502), yet Hempfest’s heroes are divided on it, with supporters sporting the blue-themed “Yes on I-502″ buttons and t-shirts and opponents sporting the red-themed “No on I-502″ colors.
