In 2010, Proposition 19 was initiated in California to legalize the use of marijuana for non-medicinal purposes. It was defeated during the November 2, 2010 Statewide ballot, but proponents of the initiative are not giving up.
Advocates of recreational chronic (another name for marijuana) have been working non-stop to reintroduce a similar act, and two years later the KONY 2012 campaign was born.
April 20th (2012), National Weed Day, will be the day of action for members of the KONY 2012 campaign. All their activities would culminate on one night to "cover the night," where members will meet at sun down with the aim to get the whole town plastered.
If the campaign were to succeed, it would signify a major shift in policy in the US as well as an increase in "grass root" movements.
