Reply #3: Why can't North Carolina have medical laughing grass? [View All]

In 1969, the Supreme Court declared that the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937 that brought federal hedgemony onto what should properly be regarded as nations. States are nations and agreed to a common defense and the need to not restrain trade from one nation from another. They got together and created a government and enumerated its powers so that it would not transgress on the rights of the states or the the inalienable rights of man.

In 1971 Nixon created the DEA by executive order. The Controlled Substances Act of 1970 drew up a schedule of narcotics even though it is an incorrect term. It gave the DEA the power to regulate that schedule as well as enforce it. When the DEA moved to ban hempfoods saying it had a few molecules of THC and that they had the power to override specific regulations allowing hempseeds, they moved into the area of legislation.

Cannabis had always been used in medicine, because what were you going to take for a headache or migraine or menstual cramps or bad back before Bayer made aspirin. Seriously, what would you take? And yes I realize aspirin does not help migraines and menstrual cramps. It also does not relax you and give you a good nights sleep. If you need to put your dog to sleep aspirin in their food is what my vetrinarian uncle recommended. You can use cannabis for a full lifetime and if you do not smoke it, you will not even cough.

The federal government does not have a cannabis policy. It has an attitude. The study of Cannabis Prohibition is a lesson in the media and government lies. Reefer Madness was a movie made for the purposes of propaganda. It can be seen at pot-tv.net. The demonization will require your children to pay for the ganjaganda that will be on this Sunday while the alcohol companies encourage people to eat their livers out, and wash the seratonin out of their brain as it creates alcohol induced depression, and build the high that will fall to a hangover. Millions of dollars for demonization but not any cents/sense for freedom and the best way.

Nixon put cannabis in Schedule 1 which prevented all research without the DEA approval and removed your universities rights to explore medical value in a time proven plant. Nixon did undertake studies that were really to find harm. Those studies led to a 1974 finding that cannabis cut off the blood supply to cancer tumors. Nixon also declared a War on Cancer in 1971. The War on Cannabis was more important than the War on Cancer and the media ignored the study for decades and so did the USG.

These studies did lead to states adopting laws for uses such as nausea for cancer patients who could not hold down any nutrition without the assistance of cannabis. In North Carolina the laws also allowed it for glaucoma. There was even a federal program started, even though one of the three requirement of Schedule 1 is that it not have medical value and should be removed because it has to meet all three, to provide federally grown cannabis to the sick. Seven people still get federal cannabis under a program that was shut down when the AIDS epidemic threatened to bring cannabis to the forefront of medicine and make it a common thing.

It was Reagan that would bury all the studies and turn the National Institute of Health into a hunter of harm that has really proven its safety when you think about it, and away from an agency of the people to explore the potential of the cannabinoids that were always known to help with pain. The War on Cannabist would tell science and medicine to stop. Cannabis Prohibition is mass murder and people like Kerry and Edwards and Lieberman are conspirators in this murder. And if you had a free media you would know this already and their would not even be Cannabis Prohibition.

Yes, Kerry is a drug warrior, but so is Joe and John. And yes, your media is controlled and you would know so, if it were not. And if you think that you cannot use cannabis for a lifetime without even a cough, you are sadly mistaken. It is prohibition that makes smoking it so popular as I would use hash oil myself or even a vaporizer if I did not think the goons would take it away from me and put me in jail for it like Tommy Chong. If you want to see how plutocratic rule is in bed with monopolistic media just watch the beer commercials and the demonization ads that your children will pay for their whole lives. Think of the tyranny involved in maintaining Cannabis Prohibition and remember people's inalienable right to do what they want if they harm no one.

So, there is a clue why we do not have medical laughing grass in North Carolina. It is because in 1937 the federal government inflicted a horrid prohibition on what was always a Miracle Plant.

If Kerry wants to war on freedom. Bring it on. I will war with him.
