Template:Polls. Cannabis is more popular than most politicians

It is difficult to get the national TV media to cover the Global Marijuana March internationally. But we get tons of media coverage locally in many cities, including TV coverage. Oftentimes even with just a few marchers. It really matters because it normalizes us in many people's minds. "Oh, it is those yearly marijuana marchers again. No big deal." So more and more people get used to the idea, and then go to the next steps of decriminalization, looking the other way, limited legalization of possession, etc.. Full legalization will happen after that. Kind of like how laws against interracial marriage were ignored. Osmosis. See the large crowd shots worldwide. Also, the NORML chart of poll numbers rising over time. The crowd shots make a big impression, and demonstrate that the events are taking place simultaneously around the world.
