Wonderful Video on a Medicinal Cannabis Experiment

[Gannon]

This short is the beginnings of a documentary which the author hopes to get made regarding his furthering of a Canadian man's research.

Surely, this is an uncontrolled experiment...the two examples listed could have many, many variables affecting their outcome.

Trouble is the positives didn't start until the 'cure' was applied. [[disclaimer to the FDA, the term 'cure' is not applied as fact, but as much fiction as the author of the video insists...I make NO claims that this illegal substance can cure anything beyond the FDA's corporate-funded paranoia and ignorance!)


End Marijuana prohibition in all its forms, and keep it FREE for all to use properly.

Tax the product sold and used recreationally, but NOT that which is consumed medicinally.


Those who grow small amounts in their own home for their own use, regardless whether it is medicinal or recreational, should remain outside the tax man's reach as well. Permanently.

Just like those who make their own beer and wine don't have to pay any tax on their production for personal use.



Cheers and happy watching, this could be the best ten minutes you sit through this weekend!

More power to them. At least their intentions are good.

What gets me is the terminal cases where any relief far outweighs the mostly fictitious negative effects. Who cares about "gateways" to heavier drugs when the patient isn't likely to live long enough to transit that gate?

From today's Free Press: Fugitive marijuana grower is a hero to sympathetic locals

With authorities closing in to seize 2,400 marijuana plants on John Robert Boone's farm two years ago, the legendary [67-year-old] Kentucky outlaw vanished like a puff of smoke. The prolific grower has been dodging the law ever since, his folk-hero status growing with every sale of a "Run, Johnny, Run" T-shirt and click on his Facebook fan page.

Tracking down a fugitive who resembles a tattooed Santa Claus has proved to be as hard as "trying to catch a ghost" for federal authorities canvassing tight-lipped residents among the small farms in a rural area southeast of Louisville. Boone, who's trying to avoid the life sentence he would get if he were convicted a third time for growing pot, has plenty of sympathizers in an area where many farmers who are down on their luck have planted marijuana.
