"Psychosis" Marijuana Studies

Reefer Madness the real delusion.

More and more you will be seeing "studies" that associate cannabis /
hemp use with psychosis or schitzophrenia. Why? Not because
marijuana actually causes "phychosis" but because "psychosis" is a
subjective diagnosis and everybody, especially great minds (geniuses)
exhibit many of the subjective traits used to "diagnos" psychosis.
Also, if you dig into these studies you will find they don't prove
what they claim to prove. THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN POT USE AND
PSYCHOSIS.

Heart medicine can be compared to a super computer and psychiatry can
be compared to doing mathmatics by scratching lines in the mud with a
stick. It is a primative "science". It isn't like cancer where you
can look at a cell and see it is cancerous. It is subjective. In
fact I can prove to anyone that they exhibit most of the signs of
psychosis altough they may not recognize it as such. In fact, it has
been proven that marijuana helps with depression and anxiety 2 of the
several symptoms of psychosis. Sugar high can cause 80% of the
symptoms of psychosis. These studies sound scientific but they are
completely bull crap.

All great minds such as Tesa, Einstien, Capernicous, Edison showed all
the so called signs of phychosis. Anyone who thinks outside the box
or has a higher way of thinking that is not understood by the
primative phyciatrist is by definition (psychotic). Immagine Telsa
who saw "visions" of his inventions and swirling energy would have
been medicated today.

Why would pharmacutical companies spend millions of dollars to fund
studies with the sole intent of proving marijuana / hemp / cannabis
cause psychosis / schitzophrenia? Because marijuana's legalization
would result in billions of dollars in lost revenue to their drugs
with their terrible side effects. (that kill tens of thousands of
people a year) that marijuana is a natural cure, such as a cure for
cancer the biggest business in medicine and has no negative side
effects , much less death..

Cannabis cures cancer / proven and known for over 35 years, shown.
Marijuana grows nuerons and is a cure for alzheimers , treatment for
neuropathy, in fact it was used in hundred of medicines before the
1913 tax stamp act. Congress didn't even know they were outlawing
this very important plant thanks to Anslingers clever tactic of
calling it the street name marijuana. Anslinger was son in law of
DuPonts daughter.

Hemp can replace crude oil for its every function and then some. Ford
designed cars to run off of ethanol from hemp. (4 times more efficient
and enviormentally friendly than corn or any other plant) Oil
companies and pharmacutical companies were and are behind the
prohibition of cannabis.

And unlike other crops, hemp, cannabis improves the soil and does not
need pesticides and fertilizer. (Another source of lost revenue as
well as a much better outcome for our world and planet.) Pesticides
are poisening us and our ecosystem.

THEY ARE JUST REPEATING PROPOGANDA / LIES. If you say it enough
people will start to think it is true. Especially if you squash all
evidence otherwise.

"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and
over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the
propaganda." George Bush 2005

Biodegradable plastics can be made from hemp / cannabis as well as
regular plastics. (50% of the oceans are unihabitable by fish because
of pollution by plastics.) All the filth dumped in our water and air
are a direct result of prohibition of hemp.

"Some explanations of a crime are not explanations: they're part of
the crime.": Olavo de Cavarlho

The fact that the black community and increasingly the white community
do not trust police and will not cooperate with police is the direct
result of this unjust war on drugs. (really war on people and
individual freedom.)

The press is so powerful in its image-making role, it can make a
criminal look like he's the victim and make the victim look like he's
the criminal. This is the press, an irresponsible press." . . . . "If
you aren't careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who
are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the
oppressing." Malcom X

Soil errosion and the floods , death and suffering in places like
banglidesh are the fault of prohibitionist. The oil wars and hundreds
of thousands of deaths in places like Iraq are related and the fault
of prohibitionist.

Furthermore, the evidence of government cover ups and lies concerning
marijuana are abundant. Like removing from the library of congress
any evidence of the film "Hemp for Victory". Luckily we have the
evidence and the film and good people inside government organizations
have leaked some of these studies. THANK YOU JACK HERER!!

We no longer live in a society, we live in an economy, where right and
wrong is determined not by fairness, but by profitability -- and where
the law no longer dictates corporate behavior, but corporate behavior
dictates the law. Cops enforcing marijuana laws are nothing more than
coporate henchmen.

THE REAL REASON MARIJUANA / HEMP IS ILLEGAL.

In 1916, the U.S. Government predicted that by the 1940s all paper
would come from hemp and that no more trees need to be cut down.
Government studies report that 1 acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of
trees. Plans were in the works to implement such programs; Department
of Agriculture

* Quality paints and varnishes were made from hemp seed oil until
1937. 58,000 tons of hemp seeds were used in America for paint
products in 1935; Sherman Williams Paint Co. testimony before Congress
against the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act.

* Henry Ford's first Model-T was built to run on hemp gasoline and the
CAR ITSELF WAS CONTRUCTED FROM HEMP! On his large estate, Ford was
photographed among his hemp fields. The car, 'grown from the soil,'
had hemp plastic panels whose impact strength was 10 times stronger
than steel; Popular Mechanics, 1941.

* Hemp called 'Billion Dollar Crop.' It was the first time a cash crop
had a business potential to exceed a billion dollars; Popular
Mechanics, Feb., 1938.

* Mechanical Engineering Magazine (Feb. 1938) published an article
entitled 'The Most Profitable and Desirable Crop that Can be Grown.'
It stated that if hemp was cultivated using 20th Century technology,
it would be the single largest agricultural crop in the U.S. and the
rest of the world.

The following information comes directly from the United States
Department of Agriculture's 1942 14-minute film encouraging and
instructing 'patriotic American farmers' to grow 350,000 acres of hemp
each year for the war effort:

'...(When) Grecian temples were new, hemp was already old in the
service of mankind. For thousands of years, even then, this plant had
been grown for cordage and cloth in China and elsewhere in the East.
For centuries prior to about 1850, all the ships that sailed the
western seas were rigged with hempen rope and sails. For the sailor,
no less than the hangman, hemp was indispensable...

Certified proof from the Library of Congress; found by the research of
Jack Herer, refuting claims of other government agencies that the 1942
USDA film 'Hemp for Victory' did not exist.

Hemp cultivation and production do not harm the environment. The USDA
Bulletin #404 concluded that hemp produces 4 times as much pulp with
at least 4 to 7 times less pollution. From Popular Mechanics, Feb.
1938:

'It has a short growing season..,it can be grown in any state...The
long roots penetrate and break the soil to leave it in perfect
condition for the next year's crop. The dense shock of leaves, 8 to 12
feet above the ground, chokes out weeds.
...hemp, this new crop can add immeasurably to American agriculture
and industry.'

In the 1930s, innovations in farm machinery would have caused an
industrial revolution when applied to hemp. This single resource could
have created millions of new jobs generating thousands of quality
products. Hemp, if not made illegal, would have brought America out of
the Great Depression.

William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane) and the Hearst Paper
Manufacturing Division of Kimberly Clark owned vast acreage of
timberlands. The Hearst Company supplied most paper products. Patty
Hearst's grandfather, a destroyer of nature for his own personal
profit, stood to lose billions because of hemp.

In 1937, Dupont patented the processes to make plastics from oil and
coal. Dupont's Annual Report urged stockholders to invest in its new
petrochemical division. Synthetics such as plastics, cellophane,
celluloid, methanol, nylon, rayon, Dacron, etc., could now be made
from oil. Natural hemp industrialization would have ruined over 80% of
Dupont's business.


THE CONSPIRACY

Andrew Mellon became Hoover's Secretary of the Treasury and Dupont's
primary investor. He appointed his future nephew-in-law, Harry J.
Anslinger, to head the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous
Drugs.

Secret meetings were held by these financial tycoons. Hemp was
declared dangerous and a threat to their billion dollar enterprises.
For their dynasties to remain intact, hemp had to go. These men took
an obscure Mexican slang word: 'marihuana' and pushed it into the
consciousness of America.

MEDIA MANIPULATION

A media blitz of 'yellow journalism' raged in the late 1920s and
1930s. Hearst's newspapers ran stories emphasizing the horrors of
marihuana. The menace of marihuana made headlines. Readers learned
that it was responsible for everything from car accidents to loose
morality.

Films like 'Reefer Madness' (1936), 'Marihuana: Assassin of
Youth' (1935) and 'Marihuana: The Devil's Weed' (1936) were propaganda
designed by these industrialists to create an enemy. Their purpose was
to gain public support so that anti-marihuana laws could be passed.

Examine the following quotes from 'The Burning Question' aka REEFER
MADNESS:

a violent narcotic.

acts of shocking violence.

incurable insanity.

soul-destroying effects.

under the influence of the drug he killed his entire family with an
ax.

more vicious, more deadly even than these soul-destroying drugs
(heroin, cocaine) is the menace of marihuana!

Reefer Madness did not end with the usual 'the end.' The film
concluded with these words plastered on the screen: TELL YOUR
CHILDREN.

In the 1930s, people were very naive; even to the point of ignorance.
The masses were like sheep waiting to be led by the few in power. They
did not challenge authority. If the news was in print or on the radio,
they believed it had to be true. They told their children and their
children grew up to be the parents of the baby-boomers.

On April 14, 1937, the Prohibitive Marihuana Tax Law or the bill that
outlawed hemp was directly brought to the House Ways and Means
Committee. This committee is the only one that can introduce a bill to
the House floor without it being debated by other committees. The
Chairman of the Ways and Means, Robert Doughton, was a Dupont
supporter. He insured that the bill would pass Congress.

Dr. James Woodward, a physician and attorney, testified too late on
behalf of the American Medical Association. He told the committee that
the reason the AMA had not denounced the Marihuana Tax Law sooner was
that the Association had just discovered that marihuana was hemp.

Few people, at the time, realized that the deadly menace they had been
reading about on Hearst's front pages was in fact passive hemp. The
AMA understood cannabis to be a MEDICINE found in numerous healing
products sold over the last hundred years.

In September of 1937, hemp became illegal. The most useful crop known
became a drug and our planet has been suffering ever since.

Congress banned hemp because it was said to be the most violence-
causing drug known. Anslinger, head of the Drug Commission for 31
years, promoted the idea that marihuana made users act extremely
violent. In the 1950s, under the Communist threat of McCarthyism,
Anslinger now said the exact opposite. Marijuana will pacify you so
much that soldiers would not want to fight.

Today, our planet is in desperate trouble. Earth is suffocating as
large tracts of rain forests disappear. Pollution, poisons and
chemicals are killing people. These great problems could be reversed
if we industrialized hemp. Natural biomass could provide all of the
planet's energy needs that are currently supplied by fossil fuels. We
have consumed 80% of our oil and gas reserves. We need a renewable
resource. Hemp could be the solution to soaring gas prices.

THE WONDER PLANT

Hemp has a higher quality fiber than wood fiber. Far fewer caustic
chemicals are required to make paper from hemp than from trees. Hemp
paper does not turn yellow and is very durable. The plant grows
quickly to maturity in a season where trees take a lifetime.

ALL PLASTIC PRODUCTS SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP SEED OIL. Hempen
plastics are biodegradable! Over time, they would break down and not
harm the environment. Oil-based plastics, the ones we are very
familiar with, help ruin nature; they do not break down and will do
great harm in the future. The process to produce the vast array of
natural (hempen) plastics will not ruin the rivers as Dupont and other
petrochemical companies have done. Ecology does not fit in with the
plans of the Oil Industry and the political machine. Hemp products are
safe and natural.

MEDICINES SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP. We should go back to the days when
the AMA supported cannabis cures. 'Medical Marijuana' is given out
legally to only a handful of people while the rest of us are forced
into a system that relies on chemicals. Pot is only healthy for the
human body.

WORLD HUNGER COULD END. A large variety of food products can be
generated from hemp. The seeds contain one of the highest sources of
protein in nature. ALSO: They have two essential fatty acids that
clean your body of cholesterol. These essential fatty acids are not
found anywhere else in nature! Consuming pot seeds is the best thing
you could do for your body. Eat uncooked hemp seeds.

CLOTHES SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP. Hemp clothing is extremely strong
and durable over time. You could hand clothing, made from pot, down to
your grandchildren. Today, there are American companies that make hemp
clothing; usually 50% hemp. Hemp fabrics should be everywhere.
Instead, they are almost underground. Superior hemp products are not
allowed to advertise on fascist television. Kentucky, once the top
hemp producing state, made it ILLEGAL TO WEAR hemp clothing! Can you
imagine being thrown into jail for wearing quality jeans?

The world is crazy...but that does not mean you have to join the
insanity. Get together. Spread the news. Tell people, and that
includes your children, the truth. Use hemp products. Eliminate the
word 'marijuana.' Realize the history that created it. Make it
politically incorrect to say or print the M-word. Fight against the
propaganda (designed to favor the agenda of the super rich) and the
bullshit. Hemp must be utilized in the future. We need a clean energy
source to save our planet. INDUSTRIALIZE HEMP!

The liquor, tobacco and oil companies fund more than a million dollars
a day to Partnership for a Drug-Free America and other similar
agencies. We have all seen their commercials. Now, their motto is:
'It's more dangerous than we thought.' Lies from the powerful
corporations, that began with Hearst, are still alive and well today.

The brainwashing continues. Now, the commercials say: If you buy a
joint, you contribute to murders and gang wars. The latest anti-pot
commercials say: If you buy a joint...you are
