THE MEDICAL CANNABIS MOVEMENT

Everyone is familiar with marijuana. And many of the U.S. population has "tried" the drug. But, many people aren't familiar with its history, benefits and drawbacks. Thus I have compiled a detailed report on the history and benefits of this facinating plant, marijuana.

Recent studies have found that medical marijuana is not only proven to alleviate symptoms and cure diseases but also prevent disease and promote health by stimulating and enhancing the cannabinoid system in the human body.

Underhanded politics and the efforts of powerful lobbying interests, as well as hate groups such as "Family Research Council" and "Heritage Foundation" are firmly allied with the DEA and its repressive anti-cannabis policies.

In its cannabis prohibitionist policies, the DEA and its allies cannot rely on reason and logic, so that the creation of "alternate realities" plays an important role when these people try to impose their irrational social policies and agendas.

the extensive use of fear-tactics, most of which has already been soundly refuted by science, is the cannabis prohibitionist' favorite weapon!

In all civil rights struggles throughout history, in order to win the struggle, the consciousness of fear, instilled by the tyrants to perpetuate their power, must be defeated!

In order to hide the reality about the cannabis plant, prohibitionists use many layers of "appearances" to obscure this reality from many people's view.

Fear-mongering is the favorite tool of the opponents of progress in just about every civil rights struggle in history. Gay liberation and cannabis liberation struggles are no exception.

There are certain philosophical criteria for "truth" and "error". Cannabis legalization is also subject to these philosophical tests.

To say that the drug Marinol is the same as medicinal cannabis is absolutely not true, and is highly misleading.

Politics and philosophy of cannabis legalization are closely intertwined, and for right now the prohibitionist policies seem to have an "upper hand".

In the 2010 midterm elections, unincorporated El Paso County voters rejected a medical marijuana ban. 2011 brings another vote to ban MMJ to CO Springs, 2012 a state-wide marijuana legalization campaign.

Bernie Ellis has become a national icon because of his producing and distributing modest amounts of cannabis, for free, to ill people in need. He is also a target for the Federal authorities. Why him?

A look at how legalizing marijuana would benefit the everyday person along with the government. Legalization would solve many problems we face today.

Marijuana is now legalized in several states and is being used for its medicinal purposes with great success. Marijuana provides effect relief to chronic pain sufferers without all the adverse side effects of large dosage opiates.
