ヘンプと医療






What a long and senseless struggle to get medicine to people in need. And the work has just begun. The cracks that are tearing apart the 63 year prohibition are widening. When patients can grow marijuana for medicine, why not farmers growing for hemp purposes as Canada is now doing? Why not research the whole war on Cannabis from the beginning? This is one purpose of this museum, to bring to light the hidden past.

Hemp is a pain-reliever and an effective treatment for anorexia, arthritis, asthma, epilepsy, AIDS, glaucoma, menstrual cramps, migraines, nausea and other ailments. Hemp is a safer substitute for many over-the-counter and prescription medicines. The human brain appears to have receptors for hemp's active ingredient, THC. And hemp medicine is now legal in California and six other states that have passed medical marijuana bills in some form.

I want to put on my public health hat and suggest that we live in such synthetic times that stress is the number one killer of Americans. Implicated in heart disease, cancers, arthritis, MS, addiction, mental illness, accidents, and on and on, stress can be relieved by Cannabis/hemp/marijuana.

Stress related illnesses including mental illnesses are taxing our health care system when a safe, sane, nontoxic medication and prevention exists that could mellow out millions of people and save millions of lives. If we don't check it out, how will we know?

Cannabis/hemp/marijuana has a medical history reaching back thousands of years. It is nothing to be afraid of at this point in history. Join me to proclaim our right to enjoy the natural cycle given us by the Creator, and join me to put an end to our reliance on synthetics and fossil fuels and nuclear madness. We need to end the war on drugs and get on with the pursuit of happiness.

Repression will never work. The more I am repressed, the more I am resolved to fight for freedom of people to use natural cycles. Don't make the American farmer wait through another four years of dead end synthetic thinking. Write now, show our government that we did not roll over and die. "Free hemp or find another job," should be our message to elected officials.

California's Prop. 215, approved in by voters in 1996, has led the way to Medical Cannabis in 8 states & D.C.
