See the magic<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Per evolution, developing human minds are hot-wired to believe without question, and to find comfort in family traditions. Unfortunately, those traditions are often steeped in false notions, mythology and superstitions-some more harmful than others. Fairy tale lies sold as truth to kids are pretty bad, but do far less harm than truly primitive dark age holdovers like female subjugation, eternal damnation, and genital mutilation.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Imagine! Africans with good intentions carving off girl parts while well-educated Westerners butcher their already perfect baby boys for the sake of tradition or maybe to 'look like dad' or this one; it's an ancient surgery from primitive times that corrects a design flaw in the million-year evolutionary development of the human penis. Seriously?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As for the better hygiene argument-HA! We trust girls to take
good care of themselves, but boys require a surgical intervention because they can't be trusted to clean under the hood?<br />
<br />
As with nearly all false notions and primitive behaviors plaguing us on the road to building a better world, circumcision will quietly fall out of practice (in as little as a single generation) by way of informed, as in enlightened, parents raising curious, thoughtful, independent-minded children who celebrate the truly ‘magical’ human qualities behind the sleigh, the egg and fees for teeth; love, hope, fellowship, cooperation, generosity, tolerance, renewal and getting better with age.<br />
<br />
This century parents will trim lies, edicts and limiting traditions from their budding branch on the family tree-the fruit of which is the brilliant truth about how beautiful and magical life can be when humans embrace
two spiritual realities:<br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>All is Love </i>and<i> We are One.</i><br />

Anti-pot warriors like The Heritage Foundation masterfully deflect the good news that drunk driving fatalities go down in legal states by focusing on the fact that a higher percentage of those road kills test positive for weed. The implied causality of cannabis is nonsense. More people are using weed because it's legal, but it's still the drunks that are doing the killing.</div>

Let’s be honest; consuming alcoholic beverages is a fun way

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Circumcision is an ancient genital mutilation ritual no less barbaric than the African practice of carving off female pleasure centers. The ritual goes back thousands of years, a fact that is sometimes laughably used to argue <i>for</i> the practice, as if an ancient civilization managed to discover and fix with surgery an actual flaw in the million-year evolutionary development of our species.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Ancient Christians swiped the bloody practice from even more ancient Jews who had adopted the idea as a blood sacrifice compromise that spared the lives of valuable first born boys. In a move that will go down in history as nothing less than diabolical, perversely repressed and judgmental Christian leaders co-opted the ritual as a means of demonizing and curtailing that which boys (and girls) are by nature prone to do. Less than two centuries ago church leaders put their long-running evil intentions in writing:</span></div>

For this purpose, if the prepuce [foreskin] is long, we may circumcise the male patient with present and probably with future advantage; the operation, too, should not be performed under chloroform, so that the pain experienced may be associated with the habit we wish to eradicate. </i></span></span></div>

endings that sense light touch, as in the anus or lips...also found in

the party girl in the cannabis family. Sure, taking a hit can be fun and

That’s what cannabis is; medicine.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">They've finally done it. The drug choice enforcement division of our corporate-corrupted Federal government has committed a critical error in its last-century scheme to keep cannabis (and many other medicinal plants) away from consumers--especially patients.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Placing CBD extracts on the scary drugs list of forbidden choices (Schedule 1) exposes the mission, and it's not public health and safety. The proof is in the ruling. Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the safest, most therapeutic medicines nature provides; patient-tested, not physically addictive and with little or no side effects. Not even a buzz (can't have everything).</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Even harder evidence to swallow; US Patent 6,630,507 [Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and Neuroprotectants]. filed way back in 2003 by none other than Health and Human Services, the same agency that continues to insist that cannabis in any form is just bad, all bad--code for serious competition. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">The abolition of Prohibition is already well underway globally and in states across America. Ironically, this latest desperate act of a faltering regime may serve to hasten the inevitable; freedom.</span></div>

End the War on Drugs NOW, sir<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
As our country's founding papers declare in no uncertain terms, Mr. President, We the People of these United States have the right to do what we feel is best for ourselves, as long as we harm no one else. Such liberties are not negotiable [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2015/11/free-means-free.html" target="_blank">Free Means Free</a>]. <br />
<br />
<br />
The war on drugs is a brutal, cruel and economically devastating military operation supported by a nearly eighty-year propaganda campaign that would make Mad Men weep [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2012/07/lights-camera-cannabis.html" target="_blank">Lights Camera Cannabis!</a>]. In the mix; a diabolical scheme to hold back mainstream research on a green suite of psychoactive plants [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2011/06/schedule-420.html" target="_blank">Schedule 1</a>] and a stunningly successful campaign to keep cannabis and hemp out of business [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-cannabis-trades-wheel-of-fortune.html" target="_blank">The Cannabis Trades</a>].<br />
<br />
<br />
In America our epidemic overuse of alcohol and pills is a direct result of our limited choices. <br />
<br />
<br />
To be sure, societies have been celebrating safely (and not) with alcohol and other drugs since the dawn of civilization. Hathor, for example, was (is) the Egyptian goddess of love and many other things, including joy, music, dance, beauty, culture and <em>drunkenness</em>. While using alcohol to excess clearly isn't new, legal, social and religious restrictions on choices didn't begin in earnest until the rise of the Romans a mere two thousand years ago.<br />
<br />
<br />
In ancient times people understood plant medicines and inebriates as gifts of nature. They also knew at a cultural level what plants to avoid. In the Americas they used psychoactive mushrooms, peyote and ayahuasca, particularly for religious and shamanic purposes. Scandinavians seem to have favored the curiously Santa-colored <em>amanita muscaria</em> mushrooms, which just as curiously can make shrooming reindeer dance, prance and leap. <br />
<br />
<br />
<em>Cannabis sativa</em> was an early choice for medicine in China and in India, and arrived (along with hemp) in Egypt by way of ancient trade routes [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2012/06/seshats-secret.html" target="_blank">Seshat's Secret</a>] The ancient Egyptians, who knew how to party, also adored their fabled Nile blue lotus and the mandrake--both of which figure prominently in their erotic art and love poetry [see <a href="http://www.innertraditions.com/sacred-sexuality-in-ancient-egypt.html" target="_blank">Sacred Sexuality in Ancient Egypt</a> by Ruth Schumann-Antelme and Stephane Rossini].<br />
<br />
<br />
In the 'modern' world the prescribed choice for addiction is typically sobriety, except of course for the pills taken for depression and related ailments. My mom, a delightful giving woman brimming with creative talent, struggled for decades to maintain her sanity in a tragic, heart-breaking last-century existence defined by restrictive drug choices. In the late 70s my attempt to switch her to cannabis failed because a well-born eastern Yankee such as herself could not--dared not-- step that far out of line [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2012/09/baking-with-mom.html" target="_blank">Baking with Mom</a>].<br />
<br />
<br />
In cannabis country we don't buy into that crap anymore. As adults in America we are free to make our own choices and explore our own remedies. As parents in America we have the right to make mature and rational decisions in the best interests of our children. And naturally we are free to make our own cannabis medicine, share those remedies with others, and tell the truth to our kids [<a href="http://cannabisrising.blogspot.com/2015/06/shonas-secret-w-tune-her-right-to-choose.html" target="_blank">Shona's Secret</a>].<br />
<br />
<br />
End this terrible war, Mr. President. If you don't your successor will surely have to.<br />

depression) are in for a happy awakening.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Green dragon cannabis tincture, a fiery ancient extract made
with pure grain alcohol (>10 drops/dose) is arguably the finest medicine
nature has to offer. Since there are no after effects, sleep-deprived patients
awake feeling clear-headed and OMG! RESTED!</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Unlike many modern sleep aids, cannabis is not toxic and not
physically addictive. Overdosing on concentrated THC can be unpleasant to the
extreme, but cannabis doesn’t kill the careless; it makes them smarter. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Cannabis truth is rising fast as patient pioneers treat
themselves and share what they learn. Sooner than most people imagine, mainstream
Americans will finally wake up and demand back the right to choose their own
medicines—in private. And as America restores cannabis patient rights, so goes
the world.</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"></span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The inevitability of re-legalization has many fearing the worst; that reefer madness will rip through neighborhoods, claim the sanity of our children and spike healthcare costs. Hand-wringers need only look to capacity-crowd cannafests for proof of weed’s safety in numbers across a wide demographic.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Since their rise in the sixties marijuana freedom gatherings have always attracted families and people of all ages, all races, and all political and religious persuasions. They mass together—sometimes in the rain—to learn, share, and get stoned a lot, because that’s the point. As a long-term population study, cannabis-only festivals provide clear evidence that the norm really is a positive vibe of peace, love and understanding.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The exciting news for Middle Americans struggling to make ends meet is that cannabis freedom comes with its own enterprise frontier—one that provides jobs and opportunities at every step in the delivery chain. Demand for secure, safe and legal indoor grow ops, for example, is creating a lucrative new specialty field for plumbers, electricians, carpenters, air control experts and security system technicians. As the frontier expands there’ll be good jobs for professionals in finance, accounting, administration, marketing, production, and education.</span></div>

Despite economic sanctions such as harsh tax rules and a banking embargo, the budding cannabis industry is doing well, and generating solid revenues in states that restore those liberties.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Cannabis patient rights pioneer Shona Banda is fighting for
her life. Again. The first time she survived a nearly fatal bout with Crohns by
treating herself with THC oil she learned to make from Rick Simpson’s YT
classic <i>Run from the Cure</i>. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-g0lxZxbKuhE/VYciob608EI/AAAAAAAAArM/CLwWDDiHoEk/s1600/shona2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-g0lxZxbKuhE/VYciob608EI/AAAAAAAAArM/CLwWDDiHoEk/s320/shona2.jpg" width="284" /></a></div>
Now Shona’s been dragged into drug war hell for secrets she
was forced to keep as a citizen living under prohibition. Making cannabis concentrates—in
the presence of a child, especially—for herself and fellow cannabis patients is
a serious crime in Kansas and in many other states. She’s been branded a criminal,
and worse, an unfit mom. She’s facing thirty years for defying grossly un-American
laws. The ‘good’ news is her story might just be enough to end the war.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The big reveal in this saga is that Ms. Banda is alive only because
of a most convenient truth; cannabis is a non-toxic, not physically addictive medicinal
<i>flower</i> that is (when used properly,
of course), totally safe, even for children and pets; an ancient remedy that
can work for some of the most common ailments of these ‘progressive’ times; alcohol
abuse, insomnia, stress, migraines, depression, fibromyalgia, MS, ADHD, PMS,
PTSD, late-night barking…</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Doubters search US patent 6,630,507; <i>Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and Neuroprotectants, </i>filed back in
2003 by none other than Health and Human Services, the same agency that continues
to insist that cannabis is bad, just bad. And these are the people <i>We The People </i>are taking orders from?
Wake up America! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the waning years of prohibition, 20th-century industrialists have
every right to be pissed. The cannabis trades are booming, despite every
attempt by a hoard of Federal agencies to dismiss, disrupt and intimidate
ganjapreneurs. Cannabis patients and fans alike are leaving the ‘pills butts and booze’ drug reservation
in droves; choosing their favorite forbidden flower for medicine because it works, treating themselves
in private because it’s nobody’s business but their own, and sharing the truth
they discover with anyone who will listen. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Treating yourself in private—using doctors for diagnosis and
emergency care and taking care of the rest with herbs, flowers, good food and
practices—drives drug prohibitionists crazy--a third choice between greedy
and frightened; it's just a flower, madam.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So now a lad with cannabis country smarts dares to stand up
to drug warriors he knows are full of shit—and unwittingly unleashes on his
family the very worst of America. The eleven-year-old is detained. Authorities
are notified. His mom, Shona Banda, no less, arrested and charged. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sorry Kansas. We’re Americans first. Our lives. Our bodies.
Our right to explore, choose and responsibly use nature’s bounty of options. For
Christians in the know it’s Genesis 1:29; Cannabis is ours; God said. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And boy oh boy, just wait until Middle Americans find out
about all this! Washington will have some serious explaining to do. And soon after that, America’s longest and most indefensible war will be over. </div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Stay strong Shona; we’ll get you out of this.</div>

Returns<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Stealthy, slow-starting and long-lasting, green dragon cannabis
tincture is a Dionysian remedy from a time before the Great Prohibition. This
concentrated THC in a dark dropper vial connects us to our pharmacological
past—ancient potions, forgotten remedies, salves, lotions, ointments, syrups
and miraculous elixirs. Until the 1920's, cannabis tincture was available at
every neighborhood pharmacy. Then came
the industrial age where hemp and cannabis were banned and demonized because
they were a competitive threat.</div>

<br />
The best example of the CRAZY in the waning years of cannabis prohibition is that while the US Surgeon General recently admitted that cannabis is medicine, the flower still remains listed as a Schedule 1 substance.<br />
<br />
Richer still is the fact that Washington uses every agency it has to disrupt and hold back the rise of the cannabis trades, and yet, since 2003, the US has held a patent on the medicinal effectiveness of cannabinoids! US Patent # 6630507 was filed by Health & Human Services, the same agency that is still saying non-toxic cannabis is so dangerous even research ought to be carefully managed.<br />
<br />
On the advocacy side of the circus the legalization forces have focused on the casual smoked aspects of cannabis, which is exactly what prohibition propaganda has been 'pushing' for nearly 80 years. Prior to the big drive to demonize this natural healing flower, cannabis was well known as medicine in the form of tincture. Laudanum, an opium tincture, was in all drug stores as well, but unlike cannabis tincture, was extremely addictive and potentially fatal. With the invention of pills and injectables both medicines fell from popular use because the 'modern' stuff was so easy to use.<br />

<br /><br />
Green dragon XX cannabis tincture, a REVOLUTIONARY OLD MEDICINE is proving to be a lifesaver for people suffering from the effects of too much drink, including friends and family members who must endure the disease right along with the sufferer.<br />
<br />
'Sensible' approach SAM president Kevin Sabet worries that adding cannabis to the mix in low income areas of DC will add to the problems they already have with alcohol. Here he is debating on CNN. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjfFnY_J2S0&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjfFnY_J2S0&feature=youtu.be</a><br />

<br /><br />
TRUE STORY FROM THE FRONT LINES<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Late one afternoon, a
young man celebrating his 21st drops by a grow house in Rhode Island with a
fifth of rum. An infamous trouble maker
and aggressive drunk, he’s well underway with a loud promise to polish off the
bottle by midnight. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial;">He’s there to buy
weed from one of several black-market growers who’ve gathered to sample the
latest batch from the tincture guy. They supply him with trim and grain
alcohol, and he brews up some potent cannabis extracts, minus his fee in vials.
He listens and learns from his lab bench while they dose and talk cannabis . </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;">The arrival of the
loud dude interrupts a chat about using edibles and extracts for ADHD instead
of ‘modern’ meds. The old medicine maker sets down his glasses and swivels away
from his well-lit filling station holding up a tiny amber dram vial. </span></div>

something other than pills, butts and booze is going to hit those industries hard,
particularly because THC is proving to be a safe and effective drug for
<i>treating</i> pill and alcohol dependency. As tincture and oil, cannabis is quietly
working wonders across a wide range of ailments, including seizures, migraines,
Crohn’s, fibromyalgia, chemo relief, ADHD, PTSD, and even cancer.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Don’t believe it? Search Mykayla, Charlotte Paige, Shona
Banda, or think about the sort of leaders who would let billions suffer while quietly placing bets on medicinal uses. In
2003 Health and Human Services filed patent # 6,630,507 entitled, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and
Neuroprotectants</i>). What say you, SAM?</div>

When
Americans wake up and see what cannabis really is and what it can do for their
families, they’ll rise up and demand the quick restoration of rights they barely knew were missing.</div>

Mom has a rare form of cancer. She's not doing well with the chemo, and the disease isn't going anywhere. He makes her a batch of potent green dragon tincture; 8 drops strong. She meets him at the border, gets it to her mom. The mom is skeptical about the pot 'medicine' but agrees to take a full dose four times a day. Weeks go by and then...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"I wanted to give you an update on my mom. She continues with chemo and
had scan results about a week and a half ago. The dr. told her that
treatment is working so they will continue to treat. She continues to
take her medicine 4 times a day. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">She has been gradually increasing her
dose with a large dose at night. She is sleeping well, still off all
pain meds and is feeling well. She cleaned her room today and went
shopping. She has maintained her weight since starting the
medication. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">She went to the dr today and they couldn't believe how great
she looked. A nurse she is close to asked her what she was doing? She
told her she was taking the "stuff". The nurse gave her a high five! Mom
is very pleased with how things are going. She continues to be very
committed to taking her medicine..."</span></span><br />

or the next one in, will be forced by public opinion to 86 Schedule 1 and
reveal our nation's biggest lie. </span></span></span><br />

are on the rise, some have had tragic consequences. The dark side of the
cannabis revolution is that the right to choose is returning to a population unaccustomed
to using any sort of complex and powerful medicinal herb. Much less one that

with edibles and extracts should go slow, and it’s best to start early on a

conservative trial dose of THC is less than 25 milligrams (mg); keep in mind
that a dispensary sweet can easily contain five times that amount. For those
with even less tolerance for risk and/or effect, one-tenth of a 100 mg chocolate

potency’s a bragging right in cannabis country.</span></span></span></div>
