The Creeping Tide of Capitalisim!

Back in the sixties all the tobacco companies applied for trademark protection for marijuana brands, just in case the stuff was legalised.

I wonder what Miracle Grow for Dope will be called?

Will it have 'secret potency enhancing attributes?

Will it be better than seaweed?

The funny thing about that is you have to use it, or you lose it. i.e. there has to be a product in the marketplace. And you have to defend it. So unless they are selling something in the Netherlands now under a Trademarked Name and registered...mote point...some other government or agency will probably mandate that they will be Fire Safe...I'm working from memory here...you know how much trouble it is to keep shit lit as it is.
IF WE CAN SAVE THE LIFE OF JUST ONE POOR POT SMOKER
by giving them cigs that won't stay lit and matches that don't work. Within six months they'll move on to harder stuff, just proving marijuana is a "gateway" drug, oh, the backlash. Let it remain illegal, fine the perp $10, confiscate it and burn it in pot bellied stoves installed in every legislative body...it would cut down on the riders attached to bills, which is where they bury the stuff that's gonna hurt you.

Gotta light?

Too late. I've already trademarked that name...also Johnny Potseed, Johnny Dopeseed, Mary Jane's Finest, Raleigh Airplanes and Roach's Plus. You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

Not to mention Maui Wowie, Panama Red, etc.


However, I believe "a blend of the finest Hawaiian and Southeast Asian tobaccos" is still available.

Dear Mr. Reynolds,

Your Trademark applications for:
Johnny Potseed, Johnny Dopeseed, Mary Jane's Finest, Raleigh Airplanes and Roach's Plus. et al.
Have not been filed as we do not have the product samples. Please reapply with the samples in triplicate.
As it was rumored but cannot be verified, that it was really some good shit.
Ah, we heard about it from the lobbyists.
As soon as we receive the reapplication with 10 product samples, we will expedite the process.
Thank you,
Mr. I.M. Notear
U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

P.S. Make that 20 product samples, I just remembered the FDA wants its cut.
 
A month later:

Dude:

Could you like, send more samples? We forgot where we put the paperwork...
 
Remember that just as the Champagne district of France has the sole right to call it's bubbly "Champagne" (according to the French), only the finest of British Columbia's crop can be called "BC Bud".

Not that I would know the difference, mind you...
 
Just as America lead the way on Dope Prohibition, so too can it lead the world to "Freedom, Truth , Justice and... , well let's not get carried away.
