Medpot is my favorite word for medical marijuana/cannabis. It is a common expression in Canada and I just want to introduce it here so that people might advance the term.
http://www.medpot.net/forums/ is a website that does news. It has more cannabis articles than any other website. It has all the articles that make it to CannabisNews.com. It is run by Marc Paquette who is famous in the medpot community in Canada because of his court cases with Terry Parker and John Turmel and for his work at Medpot.net of course. He post a digest of the links daily, unless his health is down, in this forum at HempCity-
http://www.hempcity.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=21The worst thing about illegal medpot is that cannabis should be legal. It should have never been illegal in the first place. There was no outcry to make it legal. There is famous link that would make most anyone's top 10 links on cannabis that everyone searching for the real reality of politics should read-
http://www.pipes.org/Articles/history.html Almost all the harms associated with cannabis come from the laws. Two thousand people will be arrested today for something that should have never been illegal to start with. If someone uses cannabis it does not harm anyone else for sure and harming someone else is kind of the basic definition of a crime isn't it?
Research has been blocked by a federal hegemony and a schedule 1 classification of cannabis. The greatest question in the medpot issue in America concerns the proper classification of cannabis. I realize that there is not going to be a discussion with distinguished researches of cannabis on television as the controlled media is designed to filter issues like that out. When the question is finally asked of experts, I would fall over in shock if the answer was not Schedule 4.
People were played on Iraq and ninty-percent gave Bu$h a favorable rating at the time. They were played by projected a false reality, just like the federal government learned it could do in the drug war where the CIA is the largest player on the planet. The fascist mouthpieces all recite from the same playbook when they endlessly say "It needs more research" when it is the USG and its prohibition that was installed to stop it.
I wish I had a micro for what follows as it is basic to understanding how incidious this prohibition is. In 1971, Nixon launched the war on cancer. In 1974 research out of Virginia showed that cannabis could kill cancer cells. When the war on drugs met the war on cancer the war on drugs won.
You cannot ask any of these Congressmen a direct question. If I could ask every one of them a question they had to answer on national television with a week to come up with an answer it would be "What is the greatest medicinal plant in the known history of mankind?" I say the answer is cannabis and would like to hear any other contenders from the few that will read this.
