so late on this review .. I got there around 2 ish and noticed how many friggin people there were. Omg about 20k people i bet! enjoyed tunes from the bpm stage and walked around .. got wicked roti, but had too many bones. I also got a super sweet lemonade Met up with friends from all over. Best part of the day was when it started raining and 420 came..didn't care about getting wet. didn't care about the crazies.. or the young kids.. did anyone see marc emery?

This talk about the legal system and crap is a waste of time. All you need to know is that its up to the cop to decide whether hes going to bust u , or ticket u. There was some cute girls asking me for weed.. so I am like.. do not pay me,just roll what i got. I must of smoked a quarter when i was there. weed all over me on my pants-pockets-jacket! left the place around 6 ish and decided to goto sleep at 9pm hahahah

Of course I missed the point, because the message from the festival says "I have the legal right to be an idiot" - and I know that was not the original intent of the march. But the crowd that attends has taken over and this is the message they send, that it's about snacking and giggling and a big FU to the law. Is it any wonder the general public doesn't give a sh*t then?

She makes a valid point.

I agree with that. I mean all the reviews are like "it was fun, we danced baked and had a good time". Not really the point of this march, eh?

ya, i'm not going to lie. I really didn't give a shit about the March. I'm not an activist in any way shape or form. lol. I went to have a good time, here some beats, be outside. I mostly went to catch Manzone and Strong...or should i say Strong....and just to check it out in general, since i missed it last year. It was just another excuse to smoke weed outdoors. Just with a lot more ppl! I don't understand why ppl are hating on this event though. It's a bunch of stoners enjoying themselves outdoors. What's the harm in that! I'd rather be at an outdoor festival full of stoners over sloppy, obnoxious, destructive drunks any day! Stoners are harmless, sometimes a little strange, but happy and harmless none the less. Cops in THIS CITY, not every city, but in Toronto are already extremely lenient with pot laws, so making it legal really makes no difference to me.

The harm is that people ignore what is meant to be the actual point of the march because it looks like most people at the march don't take it seriously (you being a prime example).

Must be bittersweet for the people more serious about the cause itself - lots more people coming, which is great, but not necessarily attracting the kind of attention they are hoping for.

agreed on all points!

C - I'm glad you had fun, regardless I'm just saying that the march loses it's meaning when it just becomes "just for fun" kind of event

i follow parties, not politics :P I do see what u and Skipper are saying as well. But isn't that why there's a March........and a Festival. March = politics. Freedom Festival = Fun.
