Billboard Campaign "Am I a Criminal?"

[WDIM]

I have an idea for a billboard campaign focusing on legalizing cannabis.

Take a photo of average everyday americans that use cannabis. And put a quote asking "am i a criminal?"

For example photo middle age construction worker quote "I use the Marijuana plant for my sore back after a long day of work... Am i a criminal?"

Middle age woman possible school teacher "I use the marijuana plant to calm my nerves and help with my anxiety... Am i a criminal?"

Then we can even get celebrities on board. Susan Sarandon for example "I use marijuana. Am I a criminal?"

Put a human face to the cannabis user. And call attention to the hypocrisy of turning peaceful tax paying americans into criminals for using a plant.

The billboard campaign should be focused in the states with the harshes mariuana laws first.

Thoughts?

1. This is an awesome idea!

I have absolutely no idea where you could go with this, or who to talk to--but I love it. Makes the point beautifully. I might switch it to cannabis instead of marijauna, but that's just me.

4. Good point.

Except you are in the cannabis group, so.... the topic is cannabis.

3. I like it.

I wish I had a decent camera. My ipad is the best thing I have. I'd do one of my landlord. He's a vet who has seriously bad cataracts and glaucoma, also pain issues and sleep issues. Anxiety. It helps him. If he gets too bad he'll come and take mine so I hide it. He'd probably not mind a photo.

5. thanks for the possitive feedback

I have no idea how to make this work but if anybody out there has the means i would love to see it happen.

We have to break the stereotype. Cannabis users that i know are hard working peaceful honest tax paying citizens. Truly i dont know how a jury could convict on a possession charge in this day and age but people using this plant could be terrorized by police at any moment. And they are not criminals.
