Millions of people will celebrate International Marijuana Day, which
calls
for legalizing the private use of the cannabis plant, in over 150
cities
throughout the world.
In Yarkon Park in Tel Aviv and Sacher Park in Jerusalem, Israelis
will gather for the ninth year in a row for a mass picnic in honor of
the day. The heads of the Green Leaf Party, along with other cannabis
legalization activists, were expected to speak at the gatherings.
The chairwoman of the Al-Sam anti-drug organization, Liora Ofer,
submitted an urgent appeal to the High Court of Justice last Thursday
in which she demanded that the court prevent minors from participating
in the day's activities. Ofer also demanded that police check for
drugs at the entrances to the gatherings.
