There are many ways to protest: petitions, rallies, ad campaigns.

This is one of the bolder ones.

Earlier today an anonymous group known as Craze unveiled an unmanned cannabis nursery in a storefront at 200 William Street , in the heart of Kings Cross. It has a large signage proclaiming, “Who are we hurting?”

In case you haven’t twigged, today is April 20, aka 4/20 – the day American stoners celebrate their love for bud, frequently by assembling for mass smoking sessions in public places.

A spokesperson for the group told local cannabis publication Dopamine the installation is meant to “spark debate about the ‘inadequate laws turning [us] into criminals’.”

Fair play. But ironically, if the marijuana is real – and it looks it – the group’s stunt may be the thing that turns them into actual , convicted criminals, rather than just a bunch of people who like to smoke weed and grumble about its legal status.

We’ll update this story as we hear more.
