US: Pot advocates rally across U.S.

Fort Wayne Journal Gazette

Wednesday 21 Apr 2010

OAKLAND, Calif. – Stoked by advancing legalization efforts, pot smokers across the country lit up to observe the movement’s annual high holiday.

Tuesday was 4/20, the celebration-cum-mass civil disobedience derived from "420" – insider shorthand for cannabis consumption.

Advocates from New Hampshire to California trumpeted marijuana's rising commercial and political acceptance.

A rally in Denver's Civil Center Park drew thousands of people, as did the public smoking event at the University of Colorado in Boulder.

Colorado lawmakers coincidentally marked the day by backing new regulations for dispensaries selling medical marijuana. In New Hampshire, about 100 people rallied in the state capital on the eve of a Senate vote to decriminalize small amounts of pot.
