The Truth about Marijuana.

The war on drugs, especially marijuana, is a failed waste of tax payers money. Humans should have a right to choice and not be fed hypocritical lies about drug use. How is it that Alcohol and Tobacco are seen as acceptable but other drugs in particular marijuana are not! The war on drugs is a bullshit scare mongering and fear campaign put forward by those in power directed at their fear of the people. The real problem is Marijuana gives the smoker true insight into the state of our societies, and the rich subsequent risk loseing power via overthrow through revolution.

The capitalist system in conjunction is wholy corrupted and keeps the majority (which is actually societies power minority) subservient and second class to the rich and political powers that be.

We could have a world where everyone is equal, everyone is fed, No one is in poverty.

Money could be directed towards education of all. The human race could focus on the real issues, such as destruction of our planet, extinction of animals and the poison that is deeply rooted in our cultures and societies. (Attain true evolution of our species). A society where everyone has an equal chance at life, the chance to reach their full potential, and no one need be destitute. I guess I'd call it a utopia. Legalisation would provide greater control, taxes can be spent on thourough research. The war on drugs is wrong. Have'nt we learnt anything over the last 200 years (let alond million or so years since our evolution began!)The war on drugs like religion, is simply a tool of the wealthy and subsequent influential to control us all. (.Ie the masses)

Marijuana & Drugs: A comedic perspective.


Medical Marijuana: Why it is needed.


FACTS
Deaths per year resulting from alcohol: 100,000
· Deaths per year resulting from tobacco: 430,000
· Deaths per year resulting from aspirin: 180- 1000
· Deaths per year resulting from legal drugs: 106,000
· Deaths that have ever occurred in direct result of Cannabis: 0 (that's right zero)

. Cannabis does have the disadvantage of producing onset of schizophrenia in those with a disposition. While it does also have many adventageous effects such as free thinking / focus and heightened state of awareness. This hightened state, allows true insigt.


HEMP FACTS:

· Farming 6\% of the continental U.S. acreage with biomass crops (Hemp) would provide all of America's Energy needs.
· Biomass can be converted into methane, methanol, or gasoline (which could eliminate our ties with the Middle East) at a cost comparable to petroleum and hemp is much better for the environment.
· Hemp fuel burns clean. Petroleum causes acid rain due to sulfur pollution.
· The use of Hemp Fuel does not contribute to global warming

FACT

· Hemp seed can be pressed into nutritious oil, which contains the highest amount of fatty acids in the plant kingdom. Essential oils are responsible for our immune system responses, and can clear the arteries of cholesterol and plaque.
· The byproduct of pressing the oil from hemp seed is a high quality protein seed cake. It can be used to bake into cakes, breads and casseroles. Hemp seed protein is one of mankind's finest, most complete, and available-to-the body vegetable proteins.
· A Vegan or vegetarian can get all of the days required protein from a handful of hemp seed.

FACT

· Hemp is the oldest cultivated fiber plant in the world.
· Low-THC fiber hemp varieties developed by the French and others have been available for over 20 years. It is impossible to get high from fiber hemp. Over 600,000 acres of hemp is grown worldwide with no misuse problem.
· One acre of hemp can produce as much usable fiber as 4 acres of trees or two acres of cotton.
· Trees cut down take 50-500 years to grow, while hemp can be cultivated in as little as 100 days and can yield 4 times more paper over a 20 year period.
· Until 1883, from 75-90\% of all paper in the world was made with cannabis hemp fiber including that for books, Bibles, maps, paper money, stocks and bonds, newspapers, etc.
· Hemp paper is longer lasting than wood pulp, stronger, acid-free, and chlorine free (Chlorine is estimated to cause up to 10\% of all Cancers).
· Hemp paper can be recycled 7 times, wood pulp 4 times.
· Hemp particleboard may be up to 2 times stronger than wood particleboard and holds nails better.
· Hemp is a softer, warmer, and more water absorbent, than cotton and doesn't stretch out.
· Half of the U.S. pesticides are used to treat cotton, while hemp has a natural pesticide.

FACT

· Almost any product that can be made from wood, cotton, or petroleum (including plastics) can be made from hemp. There are 25,000 known uses for hemp.
· For thousands of years virtually all good paints and varnishes were made with hemp seed oil and/or linseed oil.
· One acre of hemp produces as much cellulose fiber pulp as 4.1 acres of trees, making hemp a perfect material to replace trees for pressed board, particle board, and concrete construction molds.
· Heating and compressing plant fibers can create a practical, inexpensive, fire-resistant constructions material with excellent thermal and sound-insulating qualities.
· In 1941 Henry Ford built a plastic car made of fiber from hemp and wheat straw. Hemp is biodegradable, as synthetic plastic is not.

FACT

· Presidents Washington and Jefferson both grew hemp. Americans were legally bound to grow hemp during the Colonial Era and Early Republic.
