It is safer than a lot of legal drugs and the government has no right to keep marijuana illegal.

Wow, the Marijuana world has been busy lately. I thought it was good news when the American college of Physicians came out and said that it supported studies of Marijuana for medical use. I was surprised when President Obama came out with the announcement that the Federal Government would no longer arrest people that were following states laws when it came to Marijuana. But now that the

We have seen a lot of changes this year in the Marijuana laws. The biggest change has been an announcement from the White House that there will be no more interference from the Federal Government as long as people are obeying the State Laws. Please let your State know that this now allows them to pass Medical Marijuana bills with no need to worry about Federal Prosecution.

There are many States right now having a hard time reaching their budget this year. Some of them are looking to Alcohol to create more revenue for their State. Some of the states do not allow the sale of alcohol on Sundays, well change that and you will have 52 more days a year to gain the tax money. Some other states just want to raise the Alcohol tax. One thing that I have always believed

One innocent victim of the current Marijuana laws has always been Hemp. Hemp is outlawed because of the relationship to Marijuana. Hemp is a wonderful plant that can be used for industrial use. At one point in the US history it was required for all farms to grow Hemp for use by the Military. It can be used for a very strong rope, sails for ships, clothing, I have also heard that it can be

Govenor Spitzer had, what he would like to think, a great idea in his New York speech last night. His idea, create a tax on Marijuana of $3.50 per gram. I would actually agree with this tax stamp idea, except it is a bad idea. First of all, in 1937 there was a Marijuana Tax Act created. (Which was disputed by a New Yorker) Each person that wanted to have marijuana in their possession was required

My first Quote, this is probably the most important quote I have seen in my research. 1."Mr. Speaker, what is this bill about?" To which Speaker Rayburn replied, "I don't know. It has something to do with a thing called marihuana. I think it's a narcotic of some kind." "Mr.

The myth of the gateway drug has been determined not by statistics that are incorrect but by the wrong statistics. The Partnership for a Drug-Free America, in cooperation with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the White House Office of Drug Control Policy released the "Gateway Drug" theory as a campaign against Marijuana. They state that marijuana users are 85 times more likely than

The other day I was listening to a speach that a mother was giving about her son in his early twenties that overdosed on Heroin. It is a very upsetting situation and I strongly believe that no parent should out live their children. On the other hand she said one thing that after I thought about it I got kind of upset. During her speach about keeping Marijuana illegal, She said, "Marijuana is the

I am a firm believer that Marijuana prohibition should come to an end. I have researched and talked to lots of professionals to come up with my beliefs and which side of the fence I should stand on. I believe Marijuana should be legalized for medical purpose and legalized for responsible adults. I believe that with laws comparable to Alcohol and Tobacco marijuana would become a recreation that

Please send an email to your Senator to help get this bill passed in a special session. It is a prefilled email and the more they get the better. https://ssl.capwiz.com/mpp/issues/alert/?alertid=9874316 The State Assembly already passed this but the Senate has denied it. Let the Senators know that it is in NY’s best interest and the majority of the population wants this. http://ny.mpp.org/site/

New York Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia released a Marijuana study in 1944 that infuriated Harry Anslinger. Anslinger, appointed as the first Commissioner of the Treasury Department's Federal Bureau of Narcotics, led the fight against Marijuana for 32 years. The Laguardia Commission, prepared by the New York Academy of Medicine, was to study the effect marijuana had on the City of New York in the early

Although heavy use of marijuana is not safe it is a lot safer than most of the common used drugs in today's market.

This is in response to a comment made by one of my friends today. I have become a member of NORML and MPP both are lobbyist against the criminalization of Marijuana and both are trying to get bills passed to legalize marijuana. I believe just like them that there is a lot of good that can come from cannabis. The ability for the farmers of this country to grow cannabis would free up a lot of other
