First of all: Let me state that legalizing Hemp is not a Liberal issue, its a Conservative issue. Just check out the California Libertarian Party's web site.
While Steve Kubby, who ran for Governor of California, was busted for growing his own medical marijuana, which his doctoc testifies has kept Steve's cancer at bay for years now. Steve, without the medicinal use of hemp, would have died by now! Diane Feinstein, the great Liberal defender of minorities and the environment, has allied with other drug hawks in the Senate to attempt to make even discussing drug issues on the internet illegal.Second: There is no such thing as marijuana. Marijuana is a term invented by the first Drug Czar, Harry Anslinger, to confuse and propagandize the voters into believing that there was this new, horrible, drug used by dark-skinned rascals to seduce white women and destroy American manhood. Only the power of the Federal Government, Media propaganda machine could have made the citizens believe in "Reefer Madness" caused by one of the most ancient, valuable herbs known to mankind for over 4,000 years, Hemp!Hemp has been a blessing to humanity since the dawn of civilation used all over the world for: medicine, recreation, rope, paper, fiber, food, oil and fuel. Now, the idiots in Washington are trying with every trick they can muster to exterminate a noble plant. This is a crime against nature!Third: The way the "Drug War" is being fought guarantees a never-ending battle. By giving hard-core criminals reduced sentences for turning in hemp users (snitches) the Feds have made it in the interest of the murderers and rapists to turn-on new victems and then turn them in. By continually escalating the punishment meted out to drug dealers the cost of staying out of jail (protection money)goes up. What this means is that the bribes payed to government agents at all levels keeps going up. After more than 60 years of "Drug War" in is obvious to anyone that the only reason there are more drugs and more people using them is the massive corruption of government at all levels. The media is always pointing the finger at Mexico & Columbia as being corrupt but what about the Washington, DC mob? Most people who think about it for a while must realize that most of the agencies envolved in the "Drug War" have been bought. The DEA, Border Patrol, Coast Guard, FBI, state highway patrols and local police routinely steal from the people they raid during "drug busts." With so many billions being made by government agents why would they have any reason to end the "Drug War?" The Return Of Reefer Madness - 8/13/99http://www.cannabisnews.com/news/thread2467.shtml
