Happy 4-20 To All....

4-20

4:20 or 4/20 (pronounced four-twenty) refers to consumption of cannabis and, by extension, a way to identify oneself with cannabis drug subculture.

Known Myths

• Police dispatch code for smoking pot is 420. The number 420 is not police radio code for anything, anywhere. Checks of criminal codes suggest that the origin is neither Californian nor federal. For instance, California Penal Code 420 defines as a misdemeanor the hindrance of use of public lands.
• 
  
• There are approximately 420 active chemicals in marijuana. Actually, there are approximately 315 active chemicals in marijuana. This number goes up and down depending on which plant is used.
• 
  
• April 20th is National Pot Smokers Day. Well, it is now; but that wasn't the origin.
• 
  
• April 20th is Hitler's birthday. Yes, it is his birthday. But, as 420 started out as a time, not a date, his birthday had nothing to do with it.
• 
  
• April 20th is the date of the Columbine school shootings. This happened after the term was already in use.
• 
  
• 
  
• 4:20 is tea time for pot-smokers in Holland. Tea time in Holland is at 5:30 pm, or is it 2:30 pm? Seems no one is quite sure when the wonderful people of Holland drink their tea.

The Origin Revealed

According to Steven Hager, editor of High Times, the term 420 originated at San Rafael High School, in 1971, among a group of about a dozen pot-smoking wiseacres who called themselves the Waldos, who are now pushing 50. The term was shorthand for the time of day the group would meet, at the campus statue of Louis Pasteur, to smoke pot. Intent on developing

• 
  

their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high, and its use spread among members of an entire generation. While our teens feel that they know something we don't, you can let them in on the fact that it was your generation that came up with the numbers.

A quote from one of the Waldos in the High Times article states, "We did discover we could talk about getting high in front of our parents without them knowing by using the phrase 420." Fortunately, your teenagers will not have that same option.

• 
  

Whatever!

• 

Simply put, 420 is a symbol of cannabis and its culture. Today, April 20th events are international, and 4:20 pm has become sort of a world wide "burn time". It certainly doesn't matter too much where the term came from because for us parents, it's a flag, a warning sign that our teenagers may be into something that could harm their future. When you see the symbol 420, be aware of what it represents.

Pose for the camera.....FEDS takin Pictures

Word of caution to all rappers, young black-n-wealthy, entrepreneurs or generally successful black people, the FEDS are the ultimate haters....beware!!!

Mobb Deep's Prodigy: 'They Tried To Get Me To Set Up 50 Cent'

Published: Sunday - October 21, 2007
Words by Allen Starbury

Mobb Deep's Prodigy revealed some disturbing news recently via an interview on DJ Whoo Kid's Shade 45 Radio show on Sirius -- saying that the New York Police Department attempted to persuade the rapper to set up 50 Cent with a gun and drug charge.

Prodigy (real name: Albert Johnson) was sentenced to 3 1/2 years in prison early October (see "Mobb Deep's Prodigy Sentenced To 3 1/2 Years For Gun Charge"), as a result of a traffic stop a year prior (October 2006) where he and producer Alchemist were arrested when police found a .22 caliber pistol in his vehicle (see "Mobb Deep's Prodigy, The Alchemist Arrested On Gun Charges In New York").

He blames the hip-hop cops for the sentence, which could have been 15 years because he is a convicted felon. He claims that most rappers are under constant surveillance.

"I had to cop out to 3 1/2," Prodigy said during the interview. "It's serious right now. The hip hop cops, they all over us son. They took my bullet-proof truck, they found a lil hammer in my car, so know I gotta do a lil' 3 1/2.

"I got a long record, but I beat all my cases because they were all illegal searches and this was an illegal search too, but the cops got on the stand [and] they was lying and all kinds of stuff ," he continued. "I was facing 15 years, so through the cops lying and the judge and the DA (District Attorney), I had to cop out. There was no way for me to win."

Prodigy sent out some kind words to T.I., who was recently set up by his bodyguard in a sting by ATF Agent (see "T.I. Arrested, Home Raided By Feds In Atlanta "). The Mobb Deep rapper said he understands what T.I. is going through and has seen it first hand -- when cops tried to get him to set up 50 Cent, the head of his label.

"Much love to T.I. and his whole family. There is no telling what's going on right now,' Prodigy said. "I've seen it first hand for myself that the cops is lying. When they locked me up they tried to get me to set up 50 Cent. They wanted me to plant drugs and guns in his car. I was like 'Hell no, I ain't doing that.' They told me if I plant stuff in his car, they would let me walk."

Suggesting how rappers can stop the hip-hops' ways, he said "cameras." "We gotta [start putting] cameras in our cars," P says. "Every time the police pull you over, you gotta record it, you gotta spend some kinda money to protect yourself. Put cameras in your car and when they pull you over, you press record and everything is recorded, audio and video."

Prodigy went on to call the attention he and his partner Havoc have received from police profiling, and said its been going on since the early 90s.

"They"ve been investigating Mobb Deep since 1991, I got proof, I got pictures, I got everything they've been taking of us since 1991," he divulged. "We not criminals, we rappers. That's illegal for them to do that. That's called profiling, racial profiling. They profiling us 'cause we black rappers and we making money."

As far as the 3 1/2 years he has to serve, P is taking it as another hurdle to jump over, in a journey to make him stronger.

"They were basically just lying, so it's all good. I'mma eat that, I'mma do the 3 1/2. I'll be right back. All they doing is making me stronger, they don't even understand what they are doing."

At press time, there is not word as to when Prodigy will begin serving his sentence.

The Stop Snitchin' Movement:: an interview with Keebie, the camera man

RIGHT OR WRONG THIS IS MY CITY!!!!!!!!

The "Stop Snitchin'" DVD has been rockin' the East coast ever since it has hit the streets. Maryland Congressman Elijah Cummings has came out against the film and attacked NBA star Carmelo Anthony for appearing in it, the Baltimore police have kicked in doors lookin' for the master tapes, the government allegedly tried to frame the cameraman Keebie for selling dope and send him behind enemy lines for 40 years but he was found innocent of the trumped up charges.

Streetz (S): What is the movie about and how did you end up getting locked up behind it?

Keebie (K): Basically the movie is about what’s going on in our hood. Yeah, we were hustlin’. We was doing this and we was doing that. But it was still them dudes that envy us and they wanted to tell. They wanted to keep standing in our face, while on their cell phones giving the police our description, just to get us out of the way. But nah, that ain’t the way that you do it. You know the streets is respectable, so you got to keep it trill, you know what I’m talkin’ about? At the same time rats get their day; that's bad uplifting, upraising, and all of that...that's bad coming up. Niggas didn't teach 'em right. Nowadays when I teach my kid, I tell my kid "don't tell me nothing". We just got to get in these communities and get these kids up under our wing, man and raise them right.

Streetz (S): When I was in Chicago, about a month back, they had a campaign where, I don't know if it was the federal government or the state government, but they were going up into stores taking the "Stop Snitchin'" shirts out, as well as they were trying to shut down "Stop Snitchin'" websites; how have people responded to the film?

Keebie (K): Well it got back to me that it made ESPN, I was all over the news...really when that Carmelo situation really touched the surface that's when our popularity and the popularity of the DVD really start kickin' in.

S: What did they charge with when you got locked up behind this film?

K: They put 300 pills of Heroin and an 8- ball of cocaine on me. They brought it in the house when they raided the house.

S: A straight set up mission.

K: They had some corrupt cops that on the video was implicated... and a few dudes was part of them. The DVD was called "Stop Snitchin'", but they went on and put them officers out there, and now them officers is in federal custody for extortion, racketeering, stealing, robbery. I don't know if they had any murders or whatever but I know all of that stuff that I just named was on the news.

S: What are their names?

K: Antonio King and Murray. That's what they call them on the streets.

S: Why is this video seen as threat?

K: Because basically they want us as citizens as human beings to help them do their job. Now from what I know and what I experienced coming up...when you got a job, you got to do that job your self. That's the only way, they got to do it themselves.

S: So they're mad that ya'll are puttin' the line out there, don't work with them boys and stop snitchin'. I also heard that they were kickin' down doors, lookin' for the master tapes?

K: They can't find the master tapes because the master tapes are tucked off and they were put up real good. We still got the masters, so that's nothing and part 2 will be coming out real soon.

Never Get Busted Again - DVD

This is a story I saw in Fox. I think the guy has some good points (audio) as to why he is trying to keep people from getting busted for marijuana, but of course Fox put the negative spin on this....just as most of the major media would.


Barry Cooper sells a DVD on how to stash pot in your car without getting caught. This fall he will release a second one on how to keep police from raiding your home for marijuana.

Now for the kicker: Cooper is a former narcotics officer once considered among the top cops in Texas, where more marijuana is seized each year than in any other state.

The formerly straight-laced lawman has become a shaggy-haired militant for the legalization of weed.

Six months ago he released "Never Get Busted Again," in which the former star of West Texas' Permian Basin Drug Task Force gives tips on hiding marijuana (dashboards are rife with nooks and crannies) and throwing off drug-sniffing dogs (coat your tires in fox urine).

"I'm not helping them to break the law. It's clear the law is already being broken," said Cooper, 38, who left law enforcement a decade ago. "I will do anything legal to frustrate law enforcement's efforts to place American citizens in jail for nonviolent drug offenses."

Law officers regard Cooper as a traitor. And some pro-pot activists say Cooper's antics actually undermine their cause.

"This is like waving red meat" in front of police, said Allen St. Pierre, executive director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. "They take great professional umbrage with this. They are not our opposition, and we don't want to agitate them."

Federal drug agents said his tips won't keep them from finding your stash, and they advise drug users to save their $20 and use it to help post bail.

Richard Sanders, an agent with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration in Tyler, brushes off Cooper's DVD as a sham. "He's just out to make money," Sanders said.

Though he will not reveal how much he has made, Cooper said he has sold more than 10,000 copies of "Never Get Busted," primarily over the Internet and at a few smoke shops.

Defense attorneys have also called him as a witness to testify about unlawful tactics he says police use to make drug cases. For instance, he testified about how drug-sniffing dogs can be made to "false alert," which gives officers legal grounds to search a car or a home. Cooper said he has used that ploy himself.

Cooper has begun filming a second DVD, called "Never Get Raided." He said he is also planning a documentary in which he plans to ply 50 partygoers with beer and marijuana and film what happens next. The aim, he said, is to prove that partygoers who get high are less dangerous than those who get drunk.

Frederick Moss, a law professor at Southern Methodist University, said Cooper appears to be protected by the First Amendment and probably cannot be charged with conspiracy or aiding and abetting because he has no direct relationship with the customers he counsels in how to break the law.

Cooper claims that as a law officer, he took part in 800 drug busts, seized more than more than 50 vehicles and $500,000 in cash and assets, and made a case against a local politician's son.

"He was among the best we had," said Tom Finley, who was Cooper's supervisor on the drug task force. "I don't understand why he would turn like this."

Cooper has owned car dealerships, started a limousine service, dabbled as a cage fighting promoter and taught in a church. He lives in a pine-canopied hideaway in this East Texas town of 1,400, where his home includes a framed picture in the kitchen of Cooper holding a joint.

It is the same town where Cooper was last a police officer in 1998, when he said his frustration with small-town politics made him quit law enforcement and begin rethinking the war on drugs.

He filed for bankruptcy in 2005, blaming a tough divorce and the stock-market downturn after Sept. 11. He is also suing for $10 million over a 2005 raid of his home that Cooper alleges left bruises on his children -- an incident he says convinced him police are hurting more families than they help. (Cooper says sheriff's deputies came to take his children away after his ex-wife complained he was not sending them to school or sharing custody.)

"My critics want to kill my credibility by claiming I'm doing this to make money and trying to keep any sincerity out of this," Cooper said. "The people who have seen me and know my work, they know I'm sincere."

Police find 42 lbs. of marijuana in traffic stop

Two men were transporting drugs from New York City to Washington, police say

870 pounds of pot seized here and in Bronx

2006 bust in city prompted probe that led to arrests, large seizure
Patrick FlaniganStaff writer

June 22, 2007) — A routine drug bust in Rochester last summer prompted a multi-agency investigation that resulted in the seizure of more than 870 pounds of marijuana, authorities said Thursday.
That's enough pot to roll 779,520 half-gram joints, enough to give every fan at Frontier Field a marijuana cigarette for 56 sold-out games.Most of the marijuana, 850 pounds, was seized in the Bronx after search warrants were executed last Friday, police said.
Police Lt. Jeff Clark said the investigation started 10 months ago when Rochester narcotics officer Wilfredo Carbonel made a routine drug arrest at an illegal drug market, or "gate house," on Durnin Street.
Carbonel developed leads from that arrest and enlisted the assistance of state police Investigator Scott Sheppard.The investigation led them to a Hudson Avenue-area street gang called Dipset and to drug suppliers in New York City, he said. .... Read more (props to Kem)
