Dozens gather to smoke marijuana in Keene, NH central square -- no arrests made

[gls]

Over the last several days, at 4:20 PM people have been gathering at the central square in Keene NH and lighting up joints. Yesterday's crowd of 30 grew to more than 80 today.

The media has been on the story (http://unionleader.com/article.aspx?headline=Marijuana+in+Keene%3a+On+tow n+square%2c+at+city+hall&articleId=7d45f5fc-6bb8-4c35-b32a-44f9d493416e) and while the police have been observant, no arrests have been made.

It should be interesting to see what happens tomorrow. What if 200 people show up? Would it even be possible to arrest them all, even if they wanted to?

I'll bet law enforcement is making a list with photos of everyone there though.

This, or the police really didn't want to deal with paperwork for 80 people trying to prove a point and not hurting anyone.

You could smoke 10,000 marijuana joints in a day and still not die of an overdose.
People's fear of marijuana is simple ignorance.

There's no way you could smoke 10,000 joints. That's way too much. You'd be waaaaaaaay to lazy to toke anymore after a few joints. :D

Eating McDonald's everyday is worse then smoking pot everyday

If you vaporize it or make edibles their are NO health effects.

and I hope this starts happening in other areas of the country

Not cool. Sarah and the rest of the GOP should be welcomed here. Better to show them that this place allows for different opinions!

This is a paradox statement. You will pass out by joint 10. lol.

Sarah, if you'll be a little open-minded on this topic and read some of the past threads on it you may see that prohibition of marijuana is a huge waste of time, money and resources. You may not, but take a look. And I'm not a smoker (anymore).
