In Cannabis Veritas [ Post Comment ] Comment #5 posted by Isis on April 20, 2001 at 20:57:16 PT: This is crazy I come from a town where everyone, including our outstanding police force, does this "drug". Some one gets caught with a twamp and when they go to court suddenly they're told they only have a five sack. I on the other hand have many reasons why marijuana should be legalized. Not just becasue I feel that people should be allowed to smoke as much of it as they want. There are plenty of other reasons for prohibition to end. [ Post Comment ] Comment #4 posted by John R.

Bills on July 16, 1999 at 21:26:11 PT: It's starting to look dangerously oppressive in US Dr. Gang, you said it. When are the American people going to realize that the future of existence will change drastically with the advent of the human project. Don't you want to be included when people start lining up for genetic treatment for life extension. Do you really want a legislator to come to you and tell you personally what you can and cannot do with or put into your bodies? Really ask yourself this question. Your future health will depend eventually on some types of medications largely depend on your health and on medications. Medicine and treatment must be a right of ALL citizens. Dr. Benjamen Rush, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence said that if medical freedom were not written into the Constitution, then we would eventually open ourselves to tyranny on the subject of individual rights. His prediction is true. What of the FDA wanting to control vitamins? Why aren't alcohol(100,000 dead) and nicotine(400,000) prohibited when illegal drugs comined kill 14000? When marijuana, LSD, peyote, mescaline, and pcilocybe have combined to kill 5? Today they are working on the human genome project. The reason we die is that in order to go about adapting to changing environments over a period of time, evolutionary processes dictate that each species has a certain life span. That way the unchangeable genetic structure in an individul can change with successive offspring. Some bacterium have a lifetime of seconds where there is a bush that is known to have been alive for over 40000 years! Medical science is converging on possibilities that for most people, are unfathomable. The only thing standing in the way of free treatment are our medical rights. Our medical rights must be as sacred as individual rights, otherwize, surely only the rich will get the real breakthroughs that are yet to come. A most awesome collection of anti-prohibtion information [ Post Comment ] Comment #2 posted by FoM on July 16, 1999 at 07:06:46 PT: Can't We Just Live As We Choose? Dr. Ganj,Thanks for your comments and I love the link! LOL! When I look for news it makes me so darn mad at the ignorance of our goverment. We truly live in a plastic world with a sick moral value of theirs being taught as law. The laws againstCannabis are based on someones sick way of saying don't do that, and don't be happy because being happy must be a sin. That's what I get out of alot of what I read and being religious has nothing to do with what we consume. They must realize that you can't legislate personal morality. It has never worked and it never will because people are free spirits and they shouldn't be forced into another persons way of thinking.Peace, FoM!

Truffles in France, sinsemilla in Seattle.We really have a problem when cops can gain entry of a person's home just because they THINK THEY SMELL marijuana!Too bad for Ms. Haight, that her right of privacy was so thoroughly disregarded. One more example of how terribly wrong this drug war has gone. We can't even have calm in our lives when the police we hope to protect us, end up violating us instead. Every day I get closer and closer to moving out of this barbaric and cruel country. It's just sickening to see and hear this daily. When will this madness stop?Dr. Ganj http://www.ual.com [ Post Comment ] Post Comment Name: Optional Password: E-Mail: Subject: Comment: [Please refrain from using profanity in your message] Link URL: Link Title:
