This occurred, if I'm not mistaken, by a United Nations treaty.

Which America pretty much strong armed the rest of the world into signing through threat of economic sanctions.

STAR!

Well said, NP.

Ya know, I truly beleive that one of those huge forces against
MJ is big pharma...

They make profits from pills that treat illnesses, where now,
the truth about medicinal magic of MJ is coming out, they are
petrified to lose out-

Especially with HEMP, which creates CBD [ cannibidiol ] and
this concentrated oil stops seizures, stops tumors, etc...etc...

It isn't a belief that big pharm opposes marijuana. It's a FACT. Read the rest of the article to find out who the other top 4 players trying to keep this drug illegal and get even more disgusted with our system.

Big Star!

Excellent link, thanks.

Private prisons. My God that's frightening! I didn't realize there
were that many nay-sayers left still struggling against the tide.

One thing I heard on "Pot Barons of Colorado" was the fact that
many bars serving the traditional alchoholic drinks, has hosted
"Pot Night", instead...and the outcome has been awesome!

One bar owner said he now prefers his pot customers over booze,
because they don't get falling down drunk, they don't get mean &
nasty, or into fights, they don't become unmanageable, or innapp-
ropriate with females, they don't need taxis home, etc. etc.,!

Yea, overall it is a much better experience than alcohol. No one gets stoned then beats their wife, can't say the same about alcohol though.

a reply to: Krazysh0t

Another good link.

Absolutely right. I have some personal exp. with alchohol troubles,
ended up in rehab back in 88, i was in my young 20's...but I never
beat a woman! but, I 'resisted' cops a little...LOL

Sober since then, with a couple minor slips. AA is magic.

I hope soon, they'll let the MJ just grow wild all over the place.
I hear it is one of the most highly oxiginating plants on earth-
could it help restore our polluted atmosphere?

I don't know about the effects on the atmosphere, but the applications for hemp oil are just outstanding. Also keep in mind, that some of the effects of marijuana/hemp HAVE been blown out of proportion. Don't for a minute expect it to be a miracle cure all for all of society's ails. Before 100 years ago, it was legal everywhere and we still had the same problems with society as we do now.
