UNPARK FROM THE FAILED DRUG WAR at another

"ONE LOVE people get ready" Event

If you are a legal medical marijuana patient or caregiver in Colorado, time to listen up.  YOU will NOT want to miss this event.

The Time has come for

LOVE. REASON. COMPASSION. JUSTICE.

THIS SUNDAY starting at  2p.m.
AUGUST 26th

Oriental Theater
4335 West 44th Ave 
Denver, CO 80212

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a public event, limited ONLY to legal patients and those caregivers who are personally accompanied by their patient, and providing positive affirmative defense as indicated by the Colorado Department of Health Medical Marijuana Registry certification as well as accompanying state issued photo identification at the door.

"ONE LOVE people get ready" events are about medical marijuana patient empowerment.  It is a gathering of like minded individuals.  It is designed to be a 'level' & safe playing field designed on the time honored Farmers Market concept.  Now patients do not have to medicate in the closet, but can get out, socialize and discuss that which is important to them in a regularly available  open forum.  It is a chance for empowered patients to show off their crafts &/or abilities.   Examples of encounters that can occur within the framework of "ONE LOVE people get ready": MMJ Patient "Joe" makes available his homemade hemp jewelry, MMJ Caregiver "Lisa" brings out some of her home cooked delicacys, medicated or otherwise.  Patient "Ralph" meets with caregiver "Seth" and they speak of caregiving options discretely.  MMJ Patient "Silvio" brings his folk guitar and plays a tune or two for some others in attendance.   It is a FREE FORM ENVIRONMENT, with no financial interest associated with any party.  And, if barter occurs, or if relationships develop, so be it.  Patients can meet patients, patients can meet caregivers, and speak discretely within the framework of a safe and legal environment.  
NO OPEN MED SALES and NO ILLEGAL ACITIVITY ALLOWED.

In June, 2006 a core group of patients & caregivers travelled to San Francisco as guests of Americans for Safe Access.  During this history making journey, while visiting 10 Bay Area dispensaries, something special happened.  We encountered one standout facility, known as the San Francisco Patients Cooperative.  This amazing 'safehouse' facility and attached patient garden patio is a place where California medical marijuana patients are made to feel 'at home' & socialize.  It is a literal destination for both patients and caregivers, rather than a place to stop and get medicine.  Throughout the day, patrons were under no pressure to leave, spending the time talking, enjoying folk guitar entertainment, attending regular mmj educational seminars,  developing patient/caregiver comradry, and an overall friendly atmosphere of positive opportunitys.  It can easily be described as one of the proud primary 'homes' of the California Medical Marijuana Movement.

Colorado does not currently have a "HOME for it's medical marijuana movement.  Amendment 20 was passed as our state constitutional right after being enacted in 2000.  I am told, It is hard for a movement to organize without one......a few, or many.  The Oriental Theater has gratiously agreed to host regular monthly events such as this, to bring about more community unity within the legal mmj community.

Last year during a statewide meeting of Colorado mmj activists, an opportunity was extended to try and develop a safe & homey patient/caregiver atmosphere for patients and caregivers statewide, sort of a level playing field of comfortability.  The "How To" Place  (http://www.howtoplace.com/ ) was utilized successfully  for "ONE LOVE,people get ready" events of a similar nature, during January, February, and March, 2007, however, outgrew the facility by nature of the number of legal patients who expressed a willingness to participate.
