Pot shrinks tumors

Pot shrinks tumors! The U.S. government knew this in 1974.


This is an old rant of mine I found...

The same year I was born, and acquired a PNET (Pre Neural Echtodermal Tumor) later removed from my left occipital lobe, 99% of this type occur around the spinal cord. Mine was in it's own sack, in my skull. What are the odds on that? Less that one percent of one percent. I spent my first birthday in the hospital. This should never of happened, it was preventable. Agent Orange is not, and was NOT harmless to our troops or immediate offspring. Yet our government continues the lies. I acquired growth hormone deficiency from the radiation and kemo therapy. I took daily injections for five years to attain my current height.

My interest in cannabis grew in the later part of 1994. I was taking as 8 Advil a day just to deal with pain, that's not a good thing. I was prescribed Dexedrine, Ridilin & Prozac, and had every single listed side effect of them all! I then started smoking Camel Wides at 19. While on pro-wack I took a 1,500 mile Alaska Road Trip from Anchorage to Valdez, where I rolled my paid for $12,000 1989 4WD Toyota ext cab V-6, with liability insurance, and felt nothing. Wow what a drug... with a bad idler arm, a few windows missing, no heater, three rolls of duct tape, plastic wrap & a plunger it was almost good as new. I quit Pro-wack took up chain smoking and continued up the right side of the triangle to Fairbanks in a -50F snow storm for the first half. While waiting out the storm at the roadhouse, to try the seasonal road to Talkeetna, a full size truck tried it, and came back minutes later creeping back! North it was! After another 150 miles of white knuckle driving, it died repeatedly the next morning, after I shut it down for the night at -30F in Fairbanks. Thanks to the guy that helped push us out of the intersection, the coffee, and the antifreeze, bummer it didn't stay in the radiator!. A bite me to the fers that honked at us and flipped us off for pushing to slow! Thanks S&W Radiator for the "I owe you" on the Radiator! Then drove back to Anchorage. I started drinking at 21, beer is good for you, as is wine. Alcohol is bad for you. Cigarette's filters and chemicals are bad for you. Coffee's caffeine is bad for you. They were right drugs are bad for you, shouldn't use them a lot!

When I give in and tried THC, I quit smoking in a week. Drank less and Fixed my own pinched nerves in my neck, simultaneously eliminated my tension head ache I had since Jr. High, from being lifted by my head then dropped on a concrete floor. Nothing I have tried has done that for me. After reading an article on marijuana's ability to shrink tumors, it struck me as odd it was not used & studied more often. Hemp's ability to substitute wood in the manufacturer of paper, among a almost endless list of oil & fiber uses. I came across an enormous amount of information on industrial hemp or hemp, in addition to medical uses for marijuana. With further research, I found that hemp can serve as a feedstock for virtually anything that is currently produced from cotton, petroleum, soybeans, and of course trees. Marijuana has been used for chronic pain, appetite stimulant, muscle relaxant, analgesic, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, cancer, AIDS, and glaucoma. In 1913 Sir William Osler recommended it as the most satisfactory remedy for migraine.
Now if any of us had self discipline we would not have need for laws. The law only puts a band-aid or duct tape on the issue causing the problem at hand. Just like drugs don't fix the problem it covers it up, so you can go on, like the drones of today's America. Our Forefathers, knew the value of cannabis. How did Dupont use Nylon to out law cannabis? Why did they lift the ban on hemp for the war? Why is the government persistantly lying to us? What are we being saved from? Why were the pictures of hemp on American money stopped? "Legal Tender" means "Trading in Cannabis" You could pay your taxes with it too!!!

I found myself completely amazed and continue in doing so at the several uses for hemp & marijuana & I found the obvious link, hemp. Hemp was once used for decades before Dupont patented nylon in 1937, when cannabis was outlawed. In 1942 the ban was lifted to grow hemp for the war, 14,000 acres of hemp was harvested for rope! Next years plan was for 300,000 acres! The facets of the hemp plant became more obvious to me, the pieces of the puzzle were finally being placed together!

The enormous uses for hemp were obvious marijuana (marihuana/Indian hemp) With further research I learned that hemp and marijuana are essentially different plants. While hemp and marijuana are of the same species cannabis sativa L. They are separate varieties. Each has their own uses and can not be substituted for one another. Hemp does not produce a favorable amount of THC and marijuana is poor at producing quality fiber. The psychoactive ingredient that produces the high in marijuana is delta9 tetrahydrocannibol or THC. For optimal results, marijuana users want a THC content of 6-20 percent. Hemp contains only trace amounts of THC, usually less than three tenths percent (0.3%). By any account, there is not enough THC in industrial hemp to give a marijuana user their desired effect. Furthermore, hemp contains a high amount of CBD which actually blocks out THC uptake. Smokers of hemp will receive nothing more than a headache.

The government is ok with legal drugs like, tobacco, esspresso, tea, and untested prescription and over the counter drugs. and someone already owns the pantent on the MJ cigs, why not let cannabis, proven it's medical value for thousand years, with no deaths! Tobacco, caffeine, alcohol, cocaine, air pollution, and our bombs kill more than cannabis ever has will or can. Don't believe the lies. Hemp will replace the need for fossil oil deposits. The United States of America is the only country in the world that jails people for simple possion of cannabis. This madness must stop!
