So what’s been happening with CHIC ? Hi my names Free Rob Cannabis and in the summer of ’95 I formed the
Cannabis Hemp Information Club (CHIC) with the aim of raising people’s
awareness about the history and planet saving potential of Cannabis. In September 1995 CHIC organised a Cannabis conference in On It was round this time that I left As the police refused to arrest anyone at the NTYD, it was decided to
launch the Free Medical Marijuana Foundation, with the aim of supplying
Cannabis to medicinal users. The FMMF was launched on On Despite the police’s refusal to arrest me at the NTYD, I was arrested
for 1.57 grammas of herbal Cannabis and fined £140 on my 30th
birthday. I refused to pay the fine and ended being sent to prison, during
which time over £1,000 was raised for the FMMF as part of a sponsored prison
sentence. While in prison I wrote to home secretary Jack Straw, and invited
him to a one-to-one TV debate on the subject. As no answer was received I
went to the home office and attempted to hand in another invitation with a
live Cannabis plant. I was arrested outside the Home Office and ended up in Southwark Crown court in August 1998 where I issued the Crown
with a 'Counter Plaint' charging them with Malicious Prosecution, Crimes
Against Humanity, Crimes against Peace, Tyranny, Malfeasance, Fraud, Perjury,
Malindoctination and Conspiracy. The judge however made every
effort to prevent me from presenting evidence against the crown and then
blatantly directed the jury to find me guilty, which they eventually did. I
was fined and again refused to pay it, but rather then being sent to prison I
was held in police custody for 6 hours. Less than two weeks after this case I was arrested for Cannabis plants
growing outside ‘In Harmony With Nature’. These plants were part of a
display, which was awarded a first prize in the Less than a month after this case I was again arrested for plants
growing outside my shop. This was followed by a raid on my house and being
charged with possession and intent to supply Cannabis, cultivation of
Cannabis, possession of LSD (Acid), MDMA (Ecstasy), DMT and Magic Mushrooms.
Again I was found guilty and was ordered to do 180 hours community service
and pay £1,000 costs. I refused to pay the costs and did a week long
sponsored prison sentence raising over £1,000 for the FMMF. My latest arrest happened on During the Judges summing up he informed the jury that they had the
power, but not the right to return a ‘Not Guilty’ verdict. Returning a ‘Non
Guilty’ verdict would be termed a perverse verdict. The jury retired, and after 3 hours of deliberation a majority verdict
had not been reached and so the Judge pronounced a hung jury. Despite walking
free from court, he was called back for a farcical re-trail in February 2003.
The judge refused to allow witnesses to be called, ruled over 100 years of
independent scientific research and study as inadmissible heresy and then
blatantly directed the jury to find me guilty, which they duly did. I was
then sentenced to 2 months imprisonment at HMP Bellmarsh. Although a Free Cannabis giveaway was held at speakers corner in late
September 2002, the event was not held in 2003, but I returned to As you can see it has been 8 years since the last issue of Cannabis As volunteers did not come forward to help, CHIC has been pretty
dormant as an organisation. Frustrated at the
situation with CHIC, I tried launching a The biggest focus of my life over the last eight years has been ‘In
Harmony With Nature’. The original idea for the shop was someone else’s who
said there was a team of people to run the shop and I would not have to
invest any of my money into it. Well as it turned out there wasn’t a team of
people to run it and it has absorbed nearly all of my life savings. Running a
business has been one of the most stressful things in my life, especially as
I feel that it has distracted me away from true calling as a Cannabis
activist. I have come to realise that by running
‘In Harmony With Nature’, I have been living someone else’s dream, a dream I
know realise could well have been influenced by cocaine. I have
not truly been following my heart, and living in the Heart Chakra of mother
earth I am firing it increasingly difficult to continue. I have had enough of running ‘In Harmony With Nature’. Not only have I
been following someone else’s dream, I have had enough of being ripped off by
cocaine snorting ‘Hemp Businessmen’, being burgled 7 times as well as having
loads of stock shoplifted. I can’t take it any more, it’s doing me in and I
want to enjoy life more. Log Onto www.freecannabis.net
