Pills, butts and
booze. For nearly eighty years those have pretty much been our only legal options
in this country, and indeed around the world. Americans have been lied to frightened
bullied marginalized brutalized locked up and even gunned down. Socially economically
politically culturally and spiritually manipulated and coerced into giving up
their right to choose anything outside of an industrial-age trio of mostly
toxic and addictive manufactured products.
Had enough? Have you finally
had enough of elected, appointed and self-appointed leaders like Patrick Kennedy
(?!) telling you what you can and can’t use for medicine for fun for solace
for courage reflection inspiration motivation connection for communion or to just
chill out?
Wake up Americans!
It’s time to use that thing in your hand to discover the convenient truth about
a certain forbidden flower that must not be named-CANNABIS! Listen. Do yourself
your family your friends your community this nation and the planet a favor.
Open your eyes for god
sakes! In Colorado it’s looking like a miracle medicine that just happens to
come with its own enterprise frontier of green jobs and opportunities. Meanwhile,
back in Prohibitionland…
Marijuana legalization is a bad idea. It sends the wrong message
to children and besides the US Antipot Research Institute in Washington DC says
that stuff can snare you like a rabbit and make you crazy…and without more
research do we really want to risk legalizing a drug with euphoric effects
when—
STOP, JUST STOP LOOK LEARN EVOLVE!
Just Google a name or
two: Rick Simpson Shona Banda Donna Lambert Brave Mykayla Comstock tragically
departed Cash Hyde Charlotte’s Web Run from the Cure… By all means put the kids
on it because of course they need to learn the truth too. And the truth is that
cannabis is an all-natural medicine for adults, and for sick kids pets and
livestock in the care of adults.
And don’t even bring
up the smoking! That’s Mary Jane, she’s the party girl in the cannabis family.
Sure she’s fun and creative bright and inspirational, and while she may not be
the best choice for all your healing needs, a toke or a vape can work as
medicine. Why? That’s what cannabis is; medicine.
Want proof? Green dragon
cannabis tincture. Ancient medicine. Queen Victoria, loved it. Her private
physician JR Reynolds swore by it. Here in America Sir William Osler, founder
of John Hopkins University—our father of modern medicine—he hailed cannabis
tincture as the most satisfactory remedy for migraines.
These days patients treating
themselves in the privacy of their own
lives (imagine that) report it works for insomnia depression anxiety stress
chronic pain restless legs fibromyalgia hangovers... And possibly the most
remarkable news to emerge from the shadows is that green dragon can help
patients battling ruinous and deadly addictions to alcohol, pills and powders.
It’s beautiful
medicine. And get this. Green dragon is nothing more than (search word alert) decarboxilated
(heated) cannabis soaked in pure grain alcohol, strained then (carefully because it’s flammable)
simmered down to about eight drops strong.
Liquid weed. Exotic
potent fiery emerald green drops in a stealthy little tinted vial. A Dionysian
remedy from a time before the Great Prohibition. Safe, effective and not the
least bit physically addictive. Available now, but only through the cannabis
underground because our government forbids the use of grain alcohol for
anything other than getting really really drunk.
In cannabis country we
don’t buy into that crap anymore. Prohibition-era laws are going away because
they’re wrong. And we ALL have a right to choose cannabis because it’s a plant.
Christians! Genesis 1:29, right?
Weed’s ours! God said! -cannabis 1:29
Mr. President members
of Congress Federal State and Local prohibitionists industrialists drug war
loyalists moralists nannies, naysayers hand-wringers and pot-bashers throughout
this free country. Here this! Cannabis prohibition is finished in America and
so goes the world. The war is over. Your side lost. Stand down, come clean and
let the healing begin.
As for NORML and all the
other legalization organizations: Thanks but we don’t need donor-supported
lawyers on the beltway negotiating the terms of our freedom because there are no terms to freedom. Free
means free. And that goes double for hemp.
