| Jack Herer, an energetic advocate for marijuana
legalization who was a mesmerizing presence on the Venice Beach
Boardwalk in California and achieved worldwide renown after he wrote a
treatise extolling the virtues of hemp, died April 15. He was 70.
Herer suffered a debilitating heart attack in September minutes after he delivered a typically pugnacious pro-pot speech at the Hempstalk festival in Portland, Ore., insisting that marijuana ought to be smoked morning, noon and night. "You've got to be out of your mind not to smoke dope," shouted Herer, dressed in a green short-sleeved shirt and shorts made from hemp. "It is the best thing the world has ever had." |
