Hempilation Compilation Contemplation

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...
...Now with Philippine and East Indian sources of hemp in the hands of the Japanese...American hemp must meet the needs of our Army and Navy as well as of our industries...
...the Navy's rapidly dwindling reserves. When that is gone, American hemp will go on duty again; hemp for mooring ships; hemp for tow lines; hemp for tackle and gear; hemp for countless naval uses both on ship and shore. Just as in the days when Old Ironsides sailed the seas victorious with her hempen shrouds and hempen sails. Hemp for victory!'

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 80f Dupont's business.


The Real Reason Hemp Is Illegal

permalink
The real reason Cannabis has been outlawed has nothing to do with its effects on the mind and body.
MARIJUANA is DANGEROUS. Pot is NOT harmful to the human body or mind. Marijuana does NOT pose a threat to the general public. Marijuana is very much a danger to the oil companies, alcohol, tobacco industries and a large number of chemical corporations. Various big businesses, with plenty of dollars and influence, have suppressed the truth from the people.

The truth is if marijuana was utilized for its vast array of commercial products, it would create an industrial atomic bomb! Entrepreneurs have not been educated on the product potential of pot. The super rich have conspired to spread misinformation about an extremely versatile plant that, if used properly, would ruin their companies.

Where did the word 'marijuana' come from? In the mid 1930s, the M-word was created to tarnish the good image and phenomenal history of the hemp plant...as you will read. The facts cited here, with references, are generally verifiable in the Encyclopedia Britannica which was printed on hemp paper for 150 years:

* All schoolbooks were made from hemp or flax paper until the 1880s; Hemp Paper Reconsidered, Jack Frazier, 1974.

* It was LEGAL TO PAY TAXES WITH HEMP in America from 1631 until the early 1800s; LA Times, Aug. 12, 1981.

* REFUSING TO GROW HEMP in America during the 17th and 18th Centuries WAS AGAINST THE LAW! You could be jailed in Virginia for refusing to grow hemp from 1763 to 1769; Hemp in Colonial Virginia, G. M. Herdon.

* George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and other founding fathers GREW HEMP; Washington and Jefferson Diaries. Jefferson smuggled hemp seeds from China to France then to America.

* Benjamin Franklin owned one of the first paper mills in America and it processed hemp. Also, the War of 1812 was fought over hemp. Napoleon wanted to cut off Moscow's export to England; Emperor Wears No Clothes, Jack Herer.

* For thousands of years, 90f all ships' sails and rope were made from hemp. The word 'canvas' is Dutch for cannabis; Webster's New World Dictionary.

* 80f all textiles, fabrics, clothes, linen, drapes, bed sheets, etc. were made from hemp until the 1820s with the introduction of the cotton gin.

* The first Bibles, maps, charts, Betsy Ross's flag, the first drafts of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were made from hemp; U.S. Government Archives.

* The first crop grown in many states was hemp. 1850 was a peak year for Kentucky producing 40,000 tons. Hemp was the largest cash crop until the 20th Century; State Archives.

* Oldest known records of hemp farming go back 5000 years in China, although hemp industrialization probably goes back to ancient Egypt.

* Rembrants, Gainsboroughs, Van Goghs as well as most early canvas paintings were principally painted on hemp linen.

* 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 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 (******, *******) 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 80f 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 50emp. 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 promoting TERRORISM! The new enemy (terrorism) has paved the road to brainwash you any way THEY see fit.
There is only one enemy; the friendly people you pay your taxes to; the war-makers and nature destroyers. With your funding, they are killing the world right in front of your eyes. HALF A MILLION DEATHS EACH YEAR ARE CAUSED BY TOBACCO. HALF A MILLION DEATHS EACH YEAR ARE CAUSED BY ALCOHOL. NO ONE HAS EVER, EVER DIED FROM SMOKING POT!! In the entire history of the human race, not one death can be attributed to cannabis. Our society has outlawed grass but condones the use of the KILLERS: TOBACCO and ALCOHOL. Hemp should be declassified and placed in DRUG stores to relieve stress. Hardening and constriction of the arteries are bad; but hemp usage actually enlarges the arteries...which is a healthy condition. We have been so conditioned to think that: Smoking is harmful. That is NOT the case for passive pot.

Ingesting THC, hemp's active agent, has a positive effect; relieving asthma and glaucoma. A joint tends to alleviate the nausea caused by chemotherapy. You are able to eat on hemp. This is a healthy state of being.
The stereotype for a pothead is similar to a drunk, bubble-brain. Yet, the truth is ones creative abilities can be enhanced under its influence. The perception of time slightly slows and one can become more sensitive. You can more appreciate all arts; be closer to nature and generally FEEL more under the influence of cannabis. It is, in fact, the exact opposite state of mind and body as the drunken state. You can be more aware with pot.

The pot plant is an ALIEN plant. There is physical evidence that cannabis is not like any other plant on this planet. One could conclude that it was brought here for the benefit of humanity. Hemp is the ONLY plant where the males appear one way and the females appear very different, physically! No one ever speaks of males and females in regard to the plant kingdom because plants do not show their sexes; except for cannabis. To determine what sex a certain, normal, Earthly plant is: You have to look internally, at its DNA. A male blade of grass (physically) looks exactly like a female blade of grass. The hemp plant has an intense sexuallity. Growers know to kill the males before they fertilize the females. Yes, folks...the most potent pot comes from 'horny females.'

The reason this amazing, very sophisticated, ET plant from the future is illegal has nothing to do with how it physically affects us..

Once again, a wealth of information.

Thanks ShadowDancer.

greetings AQ


Hope the season is going well for you


Very snowy here, very windy...and overall quite cold, but I am enjoying the silent drops of snowflakes...



Take care and support truth


Thx

Hi ShadowDancer.

Gorgeous day here today! A bit on the cool side, but nothing unusual for this time of year.

Some haze, but no chemtrails ... Yay!


And yes ... Truth must always be supported.

. .

slowly but surely all truth is known

Anslinger said, "...the degenerate races..." "...darkies..." etc



The La Guardia Committee was the first in depth study into the effects of smoking marijuana. It systematically contradicted claims made by the U.S. Treasury Department that smoking marijuana results in insanity, deteriorates physical and mental health, assists in criminal behavior and juvenile deliquency, is physically addictive, and is a "gateway" drug to more dangerous drugs.

Fiorello La Guardia Mayor of New York set it up 1939. The report was released 1944

older video

as long as they can get taxes off of it they all start to change their tunes


disgusting


it grows randomly all over and has for thousands of years-

they would tax corpses if they could they already tax the dead...and even the newly alive

no respite from these usurpers who provide VERY little if anything at all for all the taxes



they need to look at Genesis

"...and all plants and herbs, THOSE BEARING SEED I give to man...and to man the herb with seed shall be as MEAT to man..."


They can not deny the truth and they can not usurp what is not theirs to claim...

Most High tells the truth-men commonly lie.

POT IS ILLEGAL BECAUSE BILLIONAIRES WANT IT THAT WAY!!!

by Doug Yurchey
[link to www.420magazine.com]







The reason they try to keep it criminalized is to CONtrol the masses-this is a real resource and a real valuable one that will not ruin our food crops and will not need pesticides to thrive-allowing our soil to recover and our water supplies-even the public water supplies are contaminated throughout-many water tables are being found contaminated with fluorides and mercury, PCBs, Trihalomethanes and haloacetic acid in public waters-leading to birth defects and stillbirths....and on and on it goes-most men STILL have DDT that is measurable in the sperm...and it has been illegal for how many decades

"DDT (Dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane), for many years one of the most widely used pesticidal chemicals in the United States, was first synthesized in 1874. Its effectiveness as an insecticide, however, was only discovered in 1939. Shortly thereafter, particularly during World War II, the U.S. began producing large quantities of DDT for control of vector-borne diseases such as typhus and malaria abroad.

After 1945, agricultural and commercial usage of DDT became widespread in the U.S. The early popularity of DDT, a member of the chlorinated hydrocarbon group, was due to its reasonable cost, effectiveness, persistence, and versatility. During the 30 years prior to its cancellation, a total of approximately 1,350,000,000 pounds of DDT was used domestically.

After 1959, DDT usage in the U.S. declined greatly, dropping from a peak of approximately 80 million pounds in that year to just under 12 million pounds in the early 1970s. Of the quantity of the pesticide used in 1970-72, over 80 percent was applied to cotton crops, with the remainder being used predominantly on peanut and soybean crops. The decline in DDT usage was the result of (1) increased insect resistance; (2) the development of more effective alternative pesticides; (3) growing public concern over adverse environmental side effects; and (4) increasing government restrictions on DDT use.

In addition to domestic consumption, large quantities of DDT have been purchased by the Agency for International Development and the United Nations and exported for malaria control. DDT exports increased from 12 percent of the total production in 1950 to 67 percent in 1969. However, exports have shown a marked decrease in recent years dropping from approximately 70 million pounds in 1970 to 35 million in 1972."

posted history is much better than actual... [link to www.epa.gov]

Public Concern

Certain characteristics of DDT which contributed to the early popularity of the chemical, particularly its persistence, later became the basis for public concern over possible hazards involved in the pesticide's use. Although warnings against such hazards were voiced by scientists as early as the mid-1940s, it was the publication of Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring in 1962 that stimulated widespread public concern over use of the chemical. After Carson's alert to the public concerning the dangers of improper pesticide use and the need for better pesticide controls, it was only natural that DDT, as one of the most widely used pesticides of the time, should come under intensive investigation.

Throughout the last decade, proponents and opponents of DDT have faced one another in a growing series of confrontations. Proponents argue that DDT has a good human health record and that alternatives to DDT are more hazardous to the user and more costly. Opponents to DDT, admitting that there may be little evidence of direct harm to man, emphasize other hazards connected with its use. They argue that DDT is a persistent, toxic chemical which easily collects in the food chain posing a proven hazard to non-target organisms such as fish and wildlife and otherwise upsetting the natural ecological balance.

Both the pros and cons of DDT use were considered by four Government committees who issued the following reports: (1) may 1963, "Use of Pesticides," A Report of the President's Science Advisory Committee (PSAC); (2) November 1965, "Restoring the Quality of Our Environment," A Report of the Environmental Protection Panel, PSAC; (3) May 1969, Report of the Committee on Persistent Pesticides, Division of Biology and Agriculture, National Research Council, to the Agriculture Department; (4) December 1969, Mrak Commission Report. All four reports recommended an orderly phasing out of the pesticide over a limited period of time.

Public concern further manifested itself through the activities of various environmental organizations. Beginning in 1967, the Environmental Defense Fund, the National Audubon Society, the National Wildlife Federation, the Izaak Walton League and other environmental groups became increasingly active in initiating court proceedings leading to the restriction of DDT use at both local and Federal levels.

State Regulatory Actions

Varying restrictions were placed on DDT in different States.

DDT use was outlawed except under emergency conditions in Illinois, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Mexico, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin.

Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Utah, Virginia, and Washington have all placed some limitation on the use of DDT.

Although the remaining States have provisions for the "restricted use" classification of pesticides, no specific mention is made of DDT.

I am on well water and the horror stories abound-I am not dying yet...but I was given notice about the public water containing Haloacetic acids and Trihalomethanes... [link to oem.bmj.com]

They tell the public if they are ill...might be a problem etc...but oh well, no big deal anymore as it seems Trihalomethanes - Haloacetic acids - Drinking water - are disinfection by-products [link to www.springerlink.com]

so much for safety...

not just in this country but all over-WWII chemicals and bioweapons were utilized for fluoridating water...and to use as PESTICIDES...oh yes, it is throughout the environment while they regulate your seatbelt for safety or make laws to restrict adults living their lives as they choose-and I am not advocating a free for all-as each need to take care of themselves for the most part-vs the scam and false sense of security-like the water being toxic...and dangerous-

We also have contamination from pharmaceuticals

Fluoride is reaching toxic levels and they can not dose the public enough-docile inducing fluoride

sterility inducing fluoride

Causing IQ deficiencies the likes of lead-I WILL not be surprised to find that one day they admit the egregious truth... [link to www.wholywater.com]

The devastating, toxic effects of fluoride are well documented by mainstream organizations. The Journal of the American Medical Association (1990-1992) has reported a greater incidence of hip fractures in fluoridated areas in the U.S. and Britain. TheNew England Journal of Medicine (1990) reported that fluoride treatment of osteoporosis patients resulted in higher hip fracture rates. The governmental National Institute of Environmental and Health Sciences (1990) has shown that fluoride causes cancer. Former promoters of fluoridation have since found that fluoridation does not reduce tooth decay (1987-1988). Scientist at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (1989-1993) have come out against fluoridation because they have confirmed that it does not reduce tooth decay and that there is clear evidence that fluoride causes cancer. The American Chemical Society published a 17-page cover story (1988) questioning the safety and effectiveness of fluoridation.

In a number of small villages in Sicily, Turkey and India there is naturally occurring fluoride in the water ranging from 0.7 to 5.4 ppm. Here the villagers and their livestock are chronically ill, while neighboring villages with no fluoride have no such illnesses. Premature aging is the overall effect. Children have brown decaying teeth; young adults often have none. Young men are bent over and crippled with pain in their joints and hips. Their skin is wrinkled and they look 60 at age 30 to 40. There is premature hardening of the arteries, loss of appetite & sex drive by age 30. The rate of stillborn miscarriages by 4 months is extremely high.


Hemp will heal many lands once the govt moves out of the way of real progress

Some Hemp Farms in Canada are making the most of it.

I bought some Hemp seed butter....if you can get past the Green color it doesn't taste bad.

And I think there are others...search for them .

for truth-
Time for some truth if one can handle it...



Our planet is being impacted by Agenda 21 and all the toxic chemicals that are throughout our environment.

Our water, our air....our soil...our plants, more importantly our food is seriously contaminated.


Even our very bodies are suffering from fluorides in water and plants...and our cells...

sterilizing MANY-the rates are climbing the world over...not just the Americans, but throughout. Many seem to think that is fine...with the destruction of our world by cWHOREporate GiAnTs.


They do have a goal to CONTROL the people by way of food and water. Many people can READILY BE MADE MUCH MORE PLIABLE WITH HUNGER AND THIRST.

Z Big even stated, "It is much easier to KILL A MILLION than control a million."

As wealthy as these kinds are they are very enraptured with their own glory, with THEIR strong sense of entitlement, or their perceived "superiority" over the commoners...


They do have most of the chess pieces, and they love games.

Long ago Hearst, Randolph Hearst started a war on freedom by helping to penalize the masses-whether it was the laws made against the Chinese immigrants building the railroads or against others who had immigrated here from all over-Hearst wanted to own all-he wanted the BEST paper outlawed basically...the best hemp fibers and ropes...so he could profit from his forestry holdings.

Anslinger was slimey and worked this goal as well-restricting information reaching the public or the doctors willing to testify pro hemp/pro Kaneh Bos(m) were kept out of the hearings.

Basically we were sold down the river in these hearings.

Our liberties were INFRINGED upon and in defiance of the Most High-as in Genesis it clearly states: "...and ALL PLANTS and HERBS, those bearing seed I give to man..."

The fact that the ingredients in anointing oil are clearly mentioned one being Kaneh Bos(m)...that is a fact but some will still dispute the truth.

Mammals, ALL MAMMALS have receptors in their bodies for canebinoids-

Receptors are considerable in all joint spaces(elbows, shoulders, knees, hips, ankles, wrists, and spine) as well as throughout the brain, and throughout the abdominal cavity-the intestines.

Considering it is a smooth muscle relaxer makes it more clear as to why the human body(or all mammals) have receptors for it. It has been found to protect the myelin sheath and that is why in diseases of neurological damage or diseases like MS it is helpful-protecting it from degenerative changes common to the diseases.

I have researched this for well over 3 decades-and have found that the reason it is not legalized is for profit of cWHOREporations who DO NOT care about your water and the planet being decimated not by my methane or exhalation but by pesticide giants and Big Pharma(=Sorcery, Greek word)
Viomass potential in Hemp is far beyond corn and soybeans.

Growing hemp actually ADDS NUTRIENTS into the soil. No pesticides even need to be used...forget the fluoride and the lead...forget the PCBs and the BPA...forget all of the slop they have sold many through the last 5 decades


All of the leftover WWII weapons are used now in pesticides and the industrial waste is served up regularly as "needed" and sadly the level of real education is abysmal-supporting the whores of profit while denying mankind a "normal" life.


Cotton takes about 7-10 times the amount of pesticides normal crops take. While hemp fiber the best in the world for clothing or rope is laid fallow.


With the trash of hemp after all fiber and usable goods removed one can add lime and make hemp bricks or blocks
They are much LIGHTER than concrete and MUCH STRONGER to build houses...it is already being done.


The original Ford car was made out of hemp plastic and ran on hemp fuel-but instead they are taking all farm lands for food production and turning them into Frankenfood fields of GMO/GE/sterile seeds....for FUEL

Find some normal corn or soybeans now...if you can-if you have special seeds...

So much in the environment is set to destroy it is shocking to me! All the BPA from your plastic bottles and styrofoam...it is illegal in Europe for a reason...as one will have a hard time finding a microwave in Russia-the reasons these facts are readily known in other areas is because it seems more and more America is being set up to be the scapegoat sacrifice in the wilderness...the Az*r*l of the modern world.


We can take it back-with Kaneh Bos(m) and set about cleaning up the mess they have generated(via Agenda 21) to squeeze man into a hole so TIGHT he will be willing to accept their mark, their chip, their RFID, as it has never been about profit as much as it was about TOTAL CONTROL


When will anyone be old enough to decide what they eat or what they say....how they think, and what they choose to do in this world when they are working to own all and control all-all chipped and all sterile and all begging for the slop they create-as though there are no other options-

there are


Hemp is

Nixon tried to bury the truth=and so did Reagan




It is too hard to control the potential of the worlds number one cash crop-especially what that potential does to alcohol and tobacco sales, not to mention pharmaceutical sales...

Had to bump the truth for PRINCIPLE


Truth works well

The therapeutic use of cannabis was introduced into Western medicine in 1839, in a forty-page article by W. B. O'Shaughnessy, a thirty-year-old physician serving with the British in India. 27 His discussion of the history of the use of cannabis products in the East reveals an awareness that these drugs had not only been used in medicine for therapeutic purposes, but had also been used for recreational and religious purposes.

O'Shaughnessy is not primarily known for his discovery of hemp drugs, but rather for his basic studies on intravenous electrolyte therapy in 1831, and his introduction of the telegraph into India in the 1850s. 26

After studying the literature on cannabis and conferring with contemporary Hindu and Mohammedan scholars O'Shaughnessy tested the effects of various hemp preparations on animals, before attempting to use them to treat humans. Satisfied that the drug was reasonably safe, he administered preparations of cannabis extract to patients, and discovered that it had analgesic and sedative properties. O'Shaughnessy successfully relieved the pain of rheumatism and stilled the convulsions of an infant with this strange new drug. His most spectacular success came, however, when he quelled the wrenching muscle spasms of tetanus and rabies with the fragrant resin. Psychic effects resembling a curious delirium, when an overdose was given, were treated with strong purgatives, emetics with a blister to the nape of the neck, and leeches on the temples. 27

The use of cannabis derivatives for medicinal purposes spread rapidly throughout Western medicine, as is evidenced in the report of the Committee on Cannabis Indica of the Ohio State Medical Society, published in 1860. In that report physicians told of success in treating stomach pain, childbirth psychosis, chronic cough, and gonorrhea with hemp products. 25 A Dr. Fronmueller, of Fuerth, Ohio, summarized his experiences with the drug as follows:

I have used hemp many hundred times to relieve local pains of an inflammatory as well as neuralgic nature, and judging from these experiments, I have to assign to the Indian hemp a place among the so-called hypnotic medicines next to opium; its effects are less intense, and the secretions are not so much suppressed by it. Digestion is not disturbed; the appetite rather increased; sickness of the stomach seldom induced; congestion never. Hemp may consequently be employed in inflammatory conditions. It disturbs the expectoration far less than opium; the nervous system is also not so much affected. The whole effect of hemp being less violent, and producing a more natural sleep, without interfering with the actions of the internal organs, it is certainly often preferable to opium, although it is not equal to that drug in strength and reliability. An alternating course of opium and Indian hemp seems particularly adapted to those cases where opium alone fails in producing the desired effect. 25

Because cannabis did not lead to physical dependence, it was found to be superior to the opiates for a number of therapeutic purposes. Birch, in 1889, reported success in treating opiate and chloral addiction with cannabis, 5 and Mattison in 1891 recommended its use to the young physician, comparing it favorably with the opiates. He quoted his colleague Suckling:

With a wish for speedy effect, it is so easy to use that modern mischief-maker, hypodermic morphia, that they [young physicians] are prone to forget remote results of incautious opiate giving.

Would that the wisdom which has come to their professional fathers through, it may be, a hapless experience, might serve them to steer clear of narcotic shoals on which many a patient has gone awreck.

Indian hemp is not here lauded as a specific. It will, at times, fail. So do other drugs. But the many cases in which it acts well, entitle it to a large and lasting confidence.

My experience warrants this statement: cannabis indica is, often, a safe and successful anodyne and hypnotic. 23

In their study of the medical applications of cannabis, physicians of the nineteenth century repeatedly encountered a number of difficulties. Recognizing the therapeutic potential of the drug, many experimenters sought ways of overcoming these drawbacks to its use in medicine, in particular the following:

Cannabis products are insoluble in water.

The onset of the effects of medicinal preparations of cannabis takes an hour or so; its action is therefore slower than that of many other drugs.

Different batches of cannabis derivatives vary greatly in strength; moreover, the common procedure for standardization of cannabis samples, by administration to test animals, is subject to error owing to variability of reactions among the animals.

There is wide variation among humans in their individual responses to cannabis.

Despite these problems regarding the uncertainty of potency and dosage and the difficulties in mode of administration, cannabis has several important advantages over other substances used as analgesics, sedatives, and hypnotics:

The prolonged use of cannabis does not lead to the development of physical dependence. 11, 13, 14, 24, 39, 44

There is minimal development of tolerance to cannabis products. * 11, 13, 14, 24, 44

Cannabis products have exceedingly low toxicity. 9, 21, 22, 24 (The oral dose required to kill a mouse has been found to be about 40,000 times the dose required to produce typical symptoms of intoxication in man.) 21

Cannabis produces no disturbance of vegetative functioning, whereas the opiates inhibit the gastrointestinal tract, the flow of bile and the cough reflex. 1, 2, 24, 44, 46

Besides investigating the physical effects of medicinal preparations of cannabis, nineteenth-century physicians observed the psychic effects of the drug in its therapeutic applications. 4, 27, 33 They found that cannabis first mildly stimulates, and then sedates the higher centers of the brain. Hare suggested in 1887 a possible mechanism of cannabis' analgesic properties:

During the time that this remarkable drug is relieving pain a very curious psychical condition manifests itself; namely, that the diminution of the pain seems to be due to its fading away in the distance, so that the pain becomes less and less, just as the pain in a delicate ear would grow less and less as a beaten drum was carried farther and farther out of the range of hearing.

This condition is probably associated with the other well-known symptom produced by the drug; namely, the prolongation of time. 16

Reynolds, in 1890, 33 summed up thirty years of his clinical experience using cannabis, finding it useful as a nocturnal sedative in senile insomnia, and valuable in treating dysmenorrhea, neuralgias including tic douloureux and tabetic symptoms, migraine headache and certain epileptoid or choreoid muscle spasms. He felt it to be of uncertain benefit in asthma, alcoholic delirium and depressions. Reynolds thought cannabis to be of no value in joint pains that were aggravated by motion and in cases of true chronic epilepsy.

Reynolds stressed the necessity of titrating the dose of each patient, increasing gradually every third or fourth day, to avoid "toxic" effects:

The dose should be given in minimum quantity, repeated in not less than four or six hours, and gradually increased by one drop every third or fourth day, until either relief is obtained, or the drug is proved, in such case, to be useless. With these precautions I have never met with any toxic effects, and have rarely failed to find, after a comparatively short time, either the value or the uselessness of the drug. 33

Concerning migraine headache, Osler stated in his text: Cannabis indica is probably the most satisfactory remedy. 11, 28

In his definitive survey of the literature and report of his own studies, deceptively titled Marihuana, America's New Drug Problem, Walton notes that cannabis was widely used during the latter half of the nineteenth century, and particularly before new drugs were developed:

This popularity of the hemp drugs can be attributed partly to the fact that they were introduced before the synthetic hypnotics and analgesics. Chloral hydrate was not introduced until 1869 and was followed in the next thirty years by paraldehyde, sulfonal and the barbitals. Antipyrine and acetanilide, the first of their particular group of analgesics, were introduced about 1884. For general sedative and analgesic purposes, the only drugs commonly used at this time were the morphine derivatives and their disadvantages were very well known. In fact, the most attractive feature of the hemp narcotics was probably the fact that they did not exhibit certain of the notorious disadvantages of the opiates. The hemp narcotics do not constipate at all, they more often increase than decrease appetite, they do not particularly depress the respiratory center even in large doses, they rarely or never cause pruritis or cutaneous eruptions and, most important, the liability of developing addiction is very much less than with opiates. 44

The use of cannabis in American medicine was seriously affected by the increased use of opiates in the latter half of the nineteenth century. With the introduction of the hypodermic syringe into American medicine from England in 1856 by Barker and Ruppaner, the use of the faster acting, water-soluble opiate drugs rapidly increased. The Civil War helped to spread the use of opiates in this country; the injected drugs were administered widely - and often indiscriminately - to relieve the pain of maimed soldiers returning from combat. (Opiate addiction was once called the "army disease." 41) As the use of injected opiates increased, cannabis declined in popularity.

Cannabis preparations were still widely available in legend and over-the-counter forms in the 1930s. Crump * in 1931 mentioned the proprietaries "Piso's Cure," "One Day Cough Cure" and "Neurosine" as containing cannabis. 44 In 1937 Sasman listed twenty-eight pharmaceuticals containing cannabis. 36 Cannabis was still recognized as a medicinal agent in that year, when the committee on legislative activities of the American Medical Association concluded as follows:

. . . there is positively no evidence to indicate the abuse of cannabis as a medicinal agent or to show that its medicinal use is leading to the development of cannabis addiction. Cannabis at the present time is slightly used for medicinal purposes, but it would seem worthwhile to maintain its status as a medicinal agent for such purposes as it now has. There is a possibility that a re-study of the drug by modern means may show other advantages to be derived from its medicinal use. 32

Meanwhile, in Mexico, the poor were smoking marijuana to relax and to endure heat and fatigue. (Originally marijuana was the Mexican slang word for the smoking preparation of dried leaves and flowering tops of the Cannabis sativa plant - the indigenous variety of the hemp plant.)

The recreational smoking of marijuana may have started in this country in New Orleans in about 1910, and continued on a small scale there until 1926, when a newspaper ran a six-part series on the use of the drug. 44 The fad subsequently spread up the Mississippi and throughout the United States, faster than local and state laws could be passed to discourage it. The use of "tea" or "muggles" blossomed into a minor "psychedelic revolution" of the 1920s. Narcotics officers encouraged the enactment of local prohibitory laws and eventually succeeded in bringing about restrictive Federal legislation. In 1937 Congress passed the Marihuana Tax Act, the finale to a series of prohibitory acts in the individual states. Under the new laws, the already dwindling use of cannabis as a therapeutic substance in medicine was brought to a virtual halt. In 1941, cannabis was dropped from the National Formulary and Pharmacopoeia.

Around the time of the passage of the Marihuana Tax Act, Walton postulated sites of action for cannabis drugs. Cortical areas, he found, are affected at low dosage, while at high dosage there seems to be a depressant effect on the thalamo-cortical pathways. Hyperemia of the brain appears to be a local phenomenon, unless centers controlling vasodilation might be located in the thalamo-cortical region. Similar possible mechanisms are suggested for the phenomenon of mild hypoglycemia, usual hunger and thirst and occasional lacrimation and nausea. 44

Despite restrictive legislation, a few medical researchers have had the opportunity to continue the investigation of the therapeutic applications of cannabis in recent years. In his study of the medical applications of cannabis for Mayor La Guardia's committee, Dr. Samuel Allentuck reported, among other findings, favorable results in treating withdrawal of opiate addicts with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a powerful purified product of the hemp plant. 1, 24

An article in 1949, buried in a journal of chemical abstracts, reported that a substance related to THC controlled epileptic seizures in a group of children more effectively than diphenylhydantoin (Dilantin ®), a most commonly prescribed anticonvulsant. 9

A number of experimenters, believing that cannabis products might be of value in psychiatry, have investigated the applications of various forms of them in the treatment of mental disorders. Cannabis had been used in the nineteenth century to treat mental illness. 19, 25, 45, 46 However, aside from some rather equivocal clinical studies, primarily in the treatment of depression, 29, 30, 35, 39 and another report of success in treating withdrawal from alcohol and opiate addiction, 42 no significant contemporary psychiatric studies involving cannabis therapy have been reported to date.

Many current "authoritative" publications unequivocally state that there is no legitimate medical use for marijuana. As compared with the 1800s, this century has seen very little medical research on the array of some twenty chemicals that are found in the hemp plant. 37

Today's readers may tend to be skeptical about a report of a cure for gonorrhea published over a century ago. 19, 25 Such findings may bear reinvestigation, however, in the light of a report from Czechoslovakia in 1960 that cannabidiolic acid, a product of the unripe hemp plant, has bacteriocidal properties. 7 Some of the therapeutic applications reported in the early medical papers have been corroborated by later investigators, but for the most part the therapeutic aspects of cannabis remain to be re-explored under modern clinical conditions.

In the past twenty years, clinical and basic research on cannabis have dwindled to practically nothing. The record of tax stamps issued by the Federal Bureau of Narcotics for cannabis research, as compared with those for research on narcotic drugs, tells the story of the twenty-year "drought" in the investigation of cannabis products: 43


In August 1971 certain secret Defense Department documents were declassified. While at NIMH as a consulting research psychiatrist in 1967 I had become aware of the existence of clandestine research at Edgewood Arsenal in Maryland.

From 1954-59 Dr. Van M. Sim was in charge of the project. He reported to Medical World News: "Marijuana . . . is probably the most potent anti-epileptic known to medicine today." 49

Dr. Harold F. Hardman, then with the Defense contracting group at the University of Michigan's Department of Pharmacology reported effects of profound hypothermia and felt marijuana derivatives to be potentially quite useful in brain and traumatic surgery. 48

The principal focus was, however, on the possible use of THC homologs as incapacitating agents. Besides the aforementioned government agency and university, the private sector was represented by the Arthur D. Little Company of Cambridge, Massachusetts. 55

Recently in the course of a study of effects on driving, it was incidentally discovered that cannabis lowers intraocular pressure, thus being possibly useful in the treatment of glaucoma. 56

Thus, a helix is made. Modern technologic methods confirm O'Shaughnessy's observations 130 years ago. After swinging away from the knowledge of marijuana's properties through the worship of new synthetics, an unrelated rise of marijuana use socially, illegalization and removal from availability for clinical use, medicine rediscovers marijuana.

The flame of knowledge is at a low ebb, kept alive by isolated scientists and clinicians; it is now being rekindled by these recent circumscribed revelations.


Unless existing restrictive state and federal laws governing marijuana are changed, there will be no future for either modern scientific investigation or controlled clinical trial by present-day methods.


The tide is turning. The Federal Bureau of Narcotic and Dangerous Drugs, National Institute of Mental Health and The Food and Drug Administration Joint Committee recently authorized human therapeutic trial of cannabis products. We may now look forward to reinvestigation of the numerous possible medical uses of marijuana. 54

A concerted effort is indicated for full-scale investigations where knowledge is lacking. Acute and chronic effects of cannabis should be restudied by modern methods. Metabolic pathways of action and detoxification need exploration by the pharmaceutical means of today. Chronic toxicity studies must be undertaken to examine possible long-term effects of cannabis use. *

Medical science must again confront the problems of cannabis' insolubility in water and its variable strength. Since human and animal responses vary a great deal, individual doses must be titrated. The popular "double blind" type of study methods will require revision. The reporting of personal drug experience was once acceptable to the scientific community. 15, 22, 25, 29, 34, 39, 44 Humans who are drug "sophisticates" will again become indispensable to psychoactive drug research, as wine tasters are to the wine industry, for only humans can verbally report the subtle and complex effects of these substances.

Government agencies having stimulated little significant clinical research in this field, the pharmaceutical industry should take the initiative in starting basic research and clinical studies into the purified congeners of cannabis for their chemical properties, pharmacologic qualities and therapeutic applications.

The sooner the truth is realized we can say bye bye to killer pesticides and not wasting our food production ability to grow soybeans and corn for fuel
Hemp is much cleaner fuel than what most use or these crops used fuel.

We can make plastics from Hemp...and it will not KILL PEOPLE TO MAKE IT OR TO USE IT OR TO DISPOSE OF IT...

Kills tumors-sooner or later the truth will be known.

Thx for the horticulture

They have been foisting dogs on the public here even when they do not want them bought for dept or are unwilling to finance them-it is egregious


Especially in NH

Several areas are reacting...Milford and also in Hillsborough they gained a dog for their dept...and then the council in HB stated they did not want it, would not pay for it, and so on...but it was forced through REGARDLESS OF 80-90 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION DO NOT WANT THEM-and they are trying to be very creative in getting them...not a good sign-then getting free shots or whatever via community/govt sponsorship-even the chief in one place did not want it...he ended up resigning after they got the dog...so again many police chiefs are leaving their jobs...en masse...even after recent promotions...as are CEOs and even several politicians of BOTH parties...something is definitely holding their attention



I just realized this is the same police department where one of the cops wore a large "No RATS" t-shirt to the Jardis hearing, correct?

That was one angry man, yet it demonstrates how stupid-arrogant they can be, because why would you publicize something that is supposed to be hidden?

It's the us vs them mentality and the "thin blue line", which is taken onto the streets.

They don't have anything in common with liberty no matter how nicely they may appear or behave, save Jardis-types.

Warporations

The Bolivian water protesters were joined in the streets by other protesters seeking to end Bolivia's cooperation with the US drug war in Latin America, a war increasingly waged by corporations and their private mercenary armies.

The largest US corporate drug warrior in the region is DynCorp, headquartered in Reston, Virginia near the CIA, and Pentagon. The company gets virtually 100% of its business from contracts with the Department of Defense, DEA, Bureau of Prisons, and the Office of National Drug Policy (ONDCP). Half of DynCorp's revenue comes from the Pentagon; many of its employees are retired soldiers.

The company makes plenty of money from the war in Iraq, where it coordinates "security teams" staffed by mercenaries. DynCorp conducts US drug war activities in Colombia, Peru, and Bolivia, including aerial spraying of poisons that kill people, animals, and plants. There are persistent reports that The Corporation is colluding with right-wing Latin American death squads.

Halliburton is another US corporation that benefits from war. This corporation's patron saint is its former CEO, Vice President Dick Cheney, who is accused of using insider influence to unfairly garner billions of dollars for Halliburton via non-competitive Iraq rebuilding contracts. The company is accused of fraudulently wasting hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars and committing other major corporate crimes in Iraq, Nigeria and elsewhere.

The United Nations says the Bush administration is withholding information from auditors examining more than $1 billion in contracts awarded to Halliburton and other companies in Iraq without competitive bidding. Sources say Halliburton, Bechtel and other US corporations have likely diverted or misspent millions of dollars of Iraqi oil money that was supposed to have been spent rebuilding the country destroyed by weapons manufactured by US corporations.

Corporate watchdogs are upset about Halliburton, but they're also concerned about General Electric (GE), a politically-connected mega-corporation that makes consumer goods, high intensity grow lights, medical equipment, military hardware, and nuclear reactors.

The company receives billions of US taxpayer dollars from the "war on terror" and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but the company's history of corporate crimes makes you wonder why it receives a penny. GE's nuclear reactors are so badly-designed that they have the potential for catastrophic failure, and are the product of unethical nuclear energy experiments the company conducted on humans several decades ago- experiments that included radiating prisoners and elderly people without properly warning them about the risks. GE was found guilty of releasing huge amounts of radiation into the air, and it was recently forced to pay half a billion dollars for polluting the Hudson River with carcinogens for three decades.

GE's military contractor record is similarly tainted. The Pentagon's Defense Contract Management Agency indicted GE on 22 criminal counts during the 1990's, and collected $221.7 million in fines and givebacks. From 1990 to 2002, GE paid a billion dollars in fines after being found guilty in 63 fraud cases. In 1992, GE defrauded the Pentagon and funneled the money to the Israeli military. GE has been fined $69 million for violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and its financial division was recently fined $100 million for fraud.

GE pays the fines and writes them off as tax deductions (a popular tactic for corporations), but government contracts keep rolling in because GE has a sweetheart relationship with the Republican Party - a relationship founded on hundreds of thousands of dollars in Republican campaign contributions.

Wonder why the mainstream media doesn't carry reports on GE's scandals? GE's $43 billion media empire includes NBC, CNBC, Telemundo, and Bravo channels. The Corporation is a leading partner of Microsoft's msnbc.com, and Vivendi's Universal Studios, USA, Trio and Sci-fi cable channels.

General Electric IS the media. You think they're going to say bad stuff about themselves?!

Corporate drug pushers

When corporations are in the drug business, their thirst for profits can cause them to endanger people's lives. Corporate drug pushing is typified by British-based pharmaceutical megalith GlaxoSmithKline, formerly known as Glaxo Wellcome and SmithKline Beecham. The pharmaceutical giant is being sued by New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer for withholding negative information and misrepresenting data regarding the use of its antidepressant Paxil by children.

The lawsuit alleges that Glaxo suppressed studies that showed Paxil was ineffective in treating children and adolescents while suggesting the drug might increase suicidal tendencies and actual suicides. Spitzer alleges that an internal 1999 company memo proves that The Corporation intended to "manage the dissemination of data in order to minimize any potential negative commercial impact."

According to Spitzer, Glaxo's revenues for Paxil used by children and adolescents totaled $55 million in 2002.

This is the same Glaxo that threatened to stop sending its products to Canadian drugstores that ship medicine to patients in the US, a move that angered American senior citizens who depend on lower drug costs achieved by ordering from Canada.

Elderly patients organized a boycott of Glaxo products- such as Tums, AquaFresh toothpaste, and Contac cold medicines - to protest The Corporation's decision.

Glaxo is also accused of using Hispanic and black orphan babies as guinea pigs in dangerous medical experiments at a New York City Catholic children's center.

Another major pharmaceutical company, Pfizer, is accused of conducting dangerous medical experiments on unwitting parents and children during a 1996 meningitis outbreak in Nigeria. Investigators say Pfizer's drug "Trovan" was not approved for use on children, and that the drug may have caused death and permanent disabilities.

Glaxo, Merck, Bayer and other medical products/consumer products corporations are the target of animal rights campaigners who say the companies torture, maim and kill thousands of dogs, cats, baboons, mice, sheep and other animals during needless animal experiments.

Corporate criminals hide in places you wouldn't expect. If people want to wash down corporate drugs with Coca Cola, for example, they should consider that the soft drink corporation stands accused of sinister behavior in southern India, where a Coca Cola plant was taking hundreds of thousands of gallons of water from drought-afflicted villages, creating water and food shortages, until a court ordered The Corporation to stop removing the water. Coca Cola refused.

Coca Cola's attempts to prevent unionization of a bottling plant in Colombia allegedly led to the murder of union organizers by right-wing paramilitary death squads; Coca Cola is being sued for allegedly colluding with death squads that intimidated or executed several union leaders.

Historically, Coca-Cola should be allied with Colombian coca producers rather than fighting against them. When the beverage was first released in the early 1900's, it contained coca leaf extract, guaranteed to give consumers a real cocaine buzz.

In bed

Corporations are rightly accused of unethical behavior and pathological greed. Many are intimately involved with the drug war and with politics, using money and power to persuade politicians to do their bidding.
