RIP Jack Herer June 18, 1939 - April 10, 2010
I know many of you may not know who this man is.. but cannabis reform activist Jack Herer has died of heart complications. "The Hemperor" as he's called traveled around the world spreading the message of marijuana legalization and hemp industrialization. He's done more for our cause than pretty much anyone else.
He wrote a book, "The Emperor Wears No Clothes", which is a very detailed and wonderful book dealing with the lies our government has told us about cannabis. A little known fact is he ran for President under the Grassroots party in 1988 and 1992.
He also has a delicious strain of cannabis named after him. It will knock you on your ass.
A few months ago he was in a coma from a minor heart attack and a major stroke. He attributes his recovery from that episode to psychotropic mushrooms. The man is a legend and he will be sorely missed.
RIP Jack Herer.
